    Parking was tricky, but to be expected in a little village .

    The cottage was in a very quiet peaceful location, well decorated, shower was good, sofas and beds comfy. For two people it was everything we needed. It was nice to be able to sit in the little garden too. Easy to walk to the sea and nice walks around the area. Little shop had most things you might want.

    No problems.

    The cottage is ideally situated in the heart of this traditional quarry workers’ village and very comfortable. You can enter the property from the back, via an outdoor space leading to the kitchen or from the front, where there is a delightful garden that lets onto a babbling brook. (Very soothing to fall asleep to at night) The kitchen is well equipped and there is a very good shower in the bathroom. The bedrooms are attractively furnished with pretty Roman blinds and, most importantly, the beds are very comfortable. Despite being a small cottage, it has plenty to offer. There is a dining table and a cosy sitting area with two sumptuous two seater sofas. We didn’t need to use the wood burner as we had such exceptionally good weather!

    Couldn’t find fault.

    The accommodation was very comfortable with everything required for our stay. The location was perfect for coastal and hillside walks with wild flowers and fauna. The Ancient Iron Age Hillfort and quarries were of special interest.

    The downstairs bathroom could do with a fan and a bit of a refit generally. As previously mentioned by guests, there should be some outside seating.

    Nice little cottage in a quiet location. Near a beach and handy for the coastal path. It's nice and warm. The bed is comfy. It's fine for 2 people.

    The system for the shower was unknown, were a bit lost at the beginning. Fortunately our hosts have prepared a detailed description, we should have read it upon arrival. :)

    Our hosts were amazing, very helpful, with detailed information and explanations what to see, where to go, what to discover in the surroundings. Brian was very nice, gave a lot of good advice! The house is charming, very clean, in a nice, quiet area, perfect for visiting the region. There’s a parking area next to the house. If I come back in the region, I’ll definitely stay here again, I recommend it!

    provide outside seating .... but we had our own fold away chairs so we used them :)

    Really great communication from arrival to being greeted with the keys and a wealth of local knowledge to make our stay easier. The cottage is located within a 10 min (easy/ pushchair wheelchair friendly ) walk to the Harbour/Beach. Take a picnic there isn't any shops ( but i quite like that). Great for fishing too - straight off the Pier. The cottage itself is beautiful and has everything you need. There is a a local shop within 5 mins walk reasonably priced again having everything you would need for your stay. I have already requested to book and looking forward to staying Oh nearly didn't mention - the neighbours are friendly and lovely too :)

    Lovely and well equipped cottage in a small and quiet village. Close to everything you need like such as a small supermarket, quiet beaches and dark skies for stargazing. Brian was super friendly, waited for us at the crossroads so we didn't get lost and gave us great insider tips. Parking can get a little tricky but with a small car there is always space.

    Fairytale Welsh village stay

    In one bedroom the bed was too long so the door could only be partially closed. In the other bedroom the noise from the water pipes meant that turning on taps in the kitchen or bathroom could wake up anyone sleeping in that room. Nevertheless these minor inconveniences wouldn't prevent us from booking this cottage again if visiting North Wales.

    Cosy comfortable cottage from 1890 in a fairytale Welsh village. No vehicle traffic at the front or back of the cottage but instead a mountain stream, sheep passing by the front door and a beautiful garden. The idyllic unspoilt village has a village store with long opening hours and a post office. The short walk from the village to the beach is scented by dense wild orchids that grow shoulder high on either side of the path. The owner checked regularly that everything was fine and that we could find our way, giving helpful instructions to find the street and cottage.

    I can't think of anything, I had everything I needed and Brian and Jane were available if I needed to contact them.

    A truly lovely hidden gem in the heart of the Pen Lleyn. A short walk from the harbour and beach, with a lovely brook running through the garden. The cottage was cosy and welcoming with everything you could possibly need for a home from home stay. Brian & Jane have paid a lot of attention to detail and it shows. Warm, welcoming and friendly. Would definitely stay again.
