It was a lovely, well equipped apartment including dishwasher and washer/dryer which came in handy when my husband decided to go for a dip in the sea! We recommend Harlech Castle and it was very easy to get there and to other attractions from Aberystwyth. Great to have a car parking space too. We had a lovely time celebrating our sons 21st birthdayRead more. Hide

This is a superb apartment in every way. Great location directly on the promenade with wonderful, relaxing sea views from the bay window. Beautifully styled and decorated and lovely quality to everything provided. We could not have asked for more. There are several short flights of stairs to the top floor but worth the effort for what you find whenRead more you reach the top. The communications with the owner were efficient and friendly throughout. The key code access means you never have to worry about an actual key. Plenty of information provided on things to do, places to go and recommendations for good eateries. Possibly the best apartment we have stayed in during all our years of travel and we hope to return in the future. Hide

We were very happy with Pumlumon Penthouse for our week in Aberystwyth. The whole property is in excellent condition and feels classy on arrival. The apartment itself was much more spacious than we expected and, of course, enjoys spectacular water views! The furnishings are of a high standard and tasteful, so the apartment feels warm and luxurious.Read more The hosts have thought of everything here, so we enjoyed being able to cook our own food sometimes in the well-equipped kitchen. The apartment is at the top of the building with many stairs to access it, so it's not a good option for those who might have difficulty with stairs (especially with luggage). The car park was handy but very tight in terms of access especially when both spaces were in use. We've stayed in Aber 20+ times over the years and this is by far the most comfortable and spacious accommodation we've enjoyed. For not much more than a B&B, this apartment offers so much more and we highly recommend it for anyone wanting to be on the Prom with every creature comfort! Hide

The information really needs to say that the penthouse is only accessed by stairs. I had assumed that there would be a lift. I would not have booked otherwise as I suffer from chronic arthritis. This made climbing 4 flights of stairs very difficult

This is a lovely well-equipped flat, with no noise pollution from the environment, however, there are 50 steps from pavement to the living area of the flat which I think should be clearly stated. The kitchen area, beds and bathrooms were all excellent with comfortable beds but the sofa/chairs were not very comfortable.

In the info about the apartment there was no mention of 5 sets of stairs to climb and being in our 70s we found this very difficult. Also, there was hardly any hanging space for clothes, none for dresses at all. The living are was very small and not really suitable for 4 adults.

The property was clean so have given it full marks but was there was a slight issue with the oven when we used it there was a lot of smoke from residue in the oven when we were preheating it so that could do with cleaning as we had to open the window which is not ideal in November. also we like to clean the toilet whilst we are there and give the kRead moreitchen a good wipe down before we leave however other than a pack of wipes there were no other cleaning items left such as sponge to wash the pans rather than placing in dish washer or any spray cleaner we could use to clean the toilet or the kitchen sides that may be beneficial to the property as realistically people are not going to buy cleaning products during a short stay however this is a minor issue like the oven and we will be booking the property for next year. Very impressed with the property and the communication regarding the holiday leading up to it which we have not experienced with other companies so far Hide

Lovely place to stay and everything you could need in this clean, spacious apartment, with gorgeous views. The only thing we felt could do with updating is the sofa which is quite saggy and uncomfortable - it wasn't a problem though as we just used the chairs and they are very comfortable.
