11 of us stayed for a birthday weekend. Lots of space. Lovely setting with views over the Bay. Very good restaurant only 5 minutes walk away. Small beach and rock pools close by too. Overall clean and tidy. The house is a bit tired looking and could do with a paint refresh but that doesn’t detract from having a great time. The pool table is a great addition that has obviously been well loved over the years and would benefit from a new green cloth and new cues. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Gwelfor 3rd time for us , lots of us each time. View is awesome and shingle beach great for exploring. Sandy beach not too far in either direction north or south house is very accommodating for all ages . Theres space for a baby walker to move around and teenagers have the games room with TV Internet for sheltering days . We have been there through storms . Warm and snug with full kitchen amenities. Space outside that is gated and secure ample parking . Treardurr is quiet but adequate with some eateries and large retail park very close by. What more do you need?

We love it here! This was our second visit. Myself and 9 of my ‘crafty ladies’ came in November last year, March this year and we’ve booked again for October!! The layout is perfect for larger parties like ours and the location is amazing! The views and beach right on your doorstep is such a luxury. The house is basic but comfortable. Very clean, comfortable beds in spacious bedrooms. We like to eat together so 10 dining chairs would be better than 8 and it could do with a new fridge and dishwasher. Lisa who manages the property is wonderful! We needed to contact her on the second day and she was brilliant. Got the issue sorted straight away and was super friendly. Roll on October!!
