Guests say
Dutch Barn Two offers a peaceful and scenic retreat, ideal for those seeking tranquillity and beautiful views of the countryside and coast. Guests consistently praise the hot tub, cleanliness, and well-equipped accommodation, with many highlighting the dog-friendly features and welcoming hosts. The location is remote yet convenient for exploring local attractions. While most experiences are positive, some guests noted minor issues with garden security for dogs, occasional maintenance needs, and a lack of clear instructions for appliances. Overall, the property provides a relaxing and memorable stay in a stunning setting.
The majority of guests found the property to be very clean and well-kept, with several reviews specifically mentioning spotless accommodation. A few noted areas needing attention, but overall impressions of cleanliness are highly positive.
The location is frequently described as peaceful, remote, and offering spectacular views, yet still within easy reach of local towns, beaches, and attractions. Some mention the narrow access road, but this does not detract from the overall appeal.
Guests generally found the cottage cosy, warm, and comfortable, with particular praise for the beds and relaxing atmosphere. A few mentioned uncomfortable sofas and creaky floorboards, but these were minor compared to the overall comfort.
Facilities such as the hot tub, kitchen, and garden are highly valued, with many guests enjoying the well-equipped nature of the property. Some reviews mention maintenance issues (e.g., garden fencing, BBQ, and instructions for appliances), but most found everything needed for a pleasant stay.
Guests appreciated welcoming hosts and festive touches like Christmas decorations, though it should be noted that gifts or welcome packs are not guaranteed. Some guests felt communication and attention to detail could be improved, particularly regarding dog policies and garden security.

Had a fabulous time at DB2, warm, comfortable and welcoming. Hot tub is perfect way to end the day. In a great location for beach or something more adventurous. Highly recommended and is on our list of places we would happily return too. Thank you M & S

Fab location, stunning views from the hot tub and comfortable beds. Lots of wildlife to see from the back garden, bats, owls and tree creepers to name a few. Nearby town of Criccieth with its lovely beach walks has all you need for food and drinks, and walks.
