A cosy, comfortable, well-equipped cottage in a quiet location close to Criccieth. Nice walks on the doorstep and a good base from which to explore the Llyn Peninsula.

Lovely clean cottage. Everything you needed was included. Just a shame there were no local pubs to walk to.

A delightful cottage in a superb location with beautiful riverside walks starting 20 yards from the front door, the coast is a 20 minute walk away, a short drive gets you to Criccieth and Pwllheli, and it is located in a charming quiet village. A great spot to explore the local area and the Llyn Peninsula from. The cottage itself is very charmingRead more, cosy and comfortable with a wood burning stove to add to the evening ambiance. The kitchen is well supplied with appliances and utensils etc and had everything we required. All in all an excellent spot to return to at the end of the day and one that we hope to return to again in the not too distant future. The host, Paul, was great at communicating with us via text, making sure that everything was okay with the cottage for us, offering up local knowledge and checking we had had a good trip after we had left, a reassuring addition to the holiday knowing that the owner was invested in us having a great stay, very much appreciated!
