Everything was fully explained. The property was warm, clean, and comfortable. It's in a delightful location with views over the surrounding countryside and with easy access to resorts and the Wales Coast Path. We had an enjoyable stay.

This was our second visit and cannot recommend it enough. Owners are really friendly and on hand in case of issues (we didnât have any) and recommendations. One of the nicest cottages we have stayed in.

My twelfth visit to the cottages and I am always made so welcome. Russ checked we had settled in and we met the lovely new puppy. Beautiful countryside whether the coast or into the mountains. Loved the steam train from Porthmadog and the village of Portmeirion.
