Y Bwthyn Reviews

A lovely accommodation, ideal for the two of us and our dog. It had everything we needed for a weeks stay and was warm and comfortable. As the weather was inclement on a couple of days we enjoyed just staying in the cottage and relaxing. We even rekindled our love of board games with their excellent selection of games! The hosts were very welcoming and on hand if we needed anything. Highly recommend this property.
Yvonne
This was my second visit to the property and it never disappoints. Its absolutely beautiful inside and out. I love it so much Ive booked again for next year. Barmouth is only a 15 minute drive away and its a lovely seaside resort with everything you need. The beach from the cottage is literally down a beautiful country lane. I would highly recommend a visit. Tony and Sarah are so welcoming and really lovely hosts. See yous soon
A sublime setting for a glorious family summer holiday. A great welcome, excellent information provided and breathtaking surroundings! Sort the WiFi and itd be a 100 rating!
Robert

Yvonne
The cottage from the outside is very picturesque the garden is well maintained and in the courtyard is a beautiful fountain. As you go into the cottage it is absolutely beautiful very light and spacious. On arrival I was met by a lovely lady who showed us around. The kitchen has everything you need and the owner had left us lovely bread, milk, cheese, butter, Walsh cakes and milk. The two bedrooms are lovely and spacious, the bathroom is very light and done to a high quality. I will definitely be going back next year. The beach is literally a two minute drive and within walking distance. There is also a holiday park with in also a two minute drive with everything you need on there. Milo my dog didnt want to come home he loved every minute of his stay as much as me and my mum.

We had a wonderful week, the cottage was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Tony and Sarah, the owners great sense of humour, very approachable should we require anything. Highly recommend this cottage should a holiday in Niorth Wales be on your list .
Carolyn
A very comfortable cottage. Great location and very helpful owners next door, but very discreet.
Absolutely loved the accomodation. ......it had all the comforts of home and the log burner was a real treat as we visited during the winter months. Location was perfect nice and peaceful, not too far from the towns and just a walk from the beach, couldnt have asked for anything better. We definitely visiting again

We had a lovely week here, nice and friendly owners, thank you for welcome pack. Beds lovely and comfy. Not far from beach and beautiful views to sea. No road noise, bliss. Highly recommend.
Richard
Fantastic place there are improvements being made to the other cottages but never affected our stay. Our hosts was nice and welcoming lovely coastline and close to many eateries.The cottage was exactly as the pictures . If I had one suggestion A TV in the bedrooms would be good
The property was clean, well presented and extremely comfortable. Having a fully equipped kitchen we were supplied with milk, freshly laid eggs and locally produced award winning sausages on arrival so good we bought some to take home. A welcome card with a small tub of dog biscuits was just another nice touch. Situated amongst fields of sheep and new born lambs but just a 15 minute walk down the lane to the beach we had the best of both the countryside and the coast. The owners were very friendly and helpful.
Steven
Very nice property in a beautiful location, greeted on arrival by owner and provided with a small hamper which was much appreciated. Will stay there again. Everything in property was working, it's just a beautiful place.
Cosy and comfortable stay on beautiful North coast of Wales. Had everything we both needed on arrival, including milk, bread and eggs, tea coffee. Lovely comfy beds and good hot shower, all mod cons and a perfect base to explore the local area. Our hosts were friendly, welcoming and on hand if we needed anything at all. We would love to stay again.
A lovely cottage to spend a week. Very comfortable and convenient for the beeches and Snowdonia. Highly recommended.
