We had a great week. Lovely cottage had everything we needed. Very clean and a sun room to relax in and watch the dairy cows, the Welsh mountains and sunsets. We were close to lots of beaches Criccieth, Nefyn Pwllheli, Portmadog. Caernarfon Castle and Glasfryn Parc were the boys did archery and 10 pin bowling. Would return to cottage as owners are friendly and we loved the welsh cakes and coffee caramel gifts. A lovely suprise.

Spent a wonderful 5 nights here with the grandchildren. Cottage contained everything we needed. Loved the fact that each bedroom had an enduite. It was in a lovely position & so many beaches were easily accessible. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Really nice and quit place away from the crowds. The cottage is a part of a dairy farm: we liked the sounds en sight of the cows in front of our cottage.. Very warm and welcoming hosts.Best thing was the conservatory were we spent most of our time: views from there to the sea and snowdonia mountains!
