Brilliant group accommodation on the beach. Fun decorations, brilliant bathrooms and a very effective kitchen lounge for social events. It didn’t matter that the rain set in, the house had more than enough room to enjoy get away celebrations with a little penthouse retreat to enjoy the stunning views. Plenty of activities to make the most of close by and the best ice cream just a short walk up the road Very much recommended for a very enjoyable group stay Thanks for a great weekend!

A big family holiday with a group including 7 kids ranging from 6 to 17 and grandpa at 80 years! Everyone loved this holiday - Criccieth is a lovely location. Easy for Snowdonia, easy for Lynn peninsula and beaches. Porthmadog close by. House was lovely, right on seafront, clean and well kitted out. Kids loved the beach.

Visit to criccieth

We had booked this house as a base as part of my 90 year old mother in law’s birthday celebrations. We were taking her to the war graves in Caernarfon. The house has a great view over Cardigan bay. It was spotlessly clean, well furnished and brilliantly set up for the 10 of us who stayed. Lovely walks,nearby shop and restaurants to suit all tastes. We had a brilliant weekend and would definitely recommend. The hosts even arranged sunshine for us the whole weekend 😊

celebrating hubbys 60th

Lovely house for family celebrations, we were grandparents, children and little grandchildren. Loved the big kitchen were we could all gather whilst cooking and chatting followed by the solace of the sitting room on the 1st floor when the children went to bed. The many showers for cleaning the kids from the beach. Sitting outside of a morning with a brew watching the porpoise pass by and a stroll over to the rocks of an evening to watch the seals bask in the sun. Perfect large house to accommodate all our needs. Thank you

Beautiful property, amazing location.

The view are amazing and change every day. The house is beautiful, especially the penthouse and has everything you need for your holiday. The area is lovely and quiet, but there are a couple of pubs and a great indian restaurant/takeaway. So many showers and bathrooms so never a queue when theres a lot of you. Huge table to fit everyone around for dinner and lots of games in the cupboard. The beach was pebbly but great- we flew kites, painted pebbles and did metal detecting. Lots of locals go for open water swimming there too. Abersoc is not far and that was alobely place to visit as was the snowdon mountain railway and Caernarfon.

Warning Needs Attention

When we arrived at the property the heating was not working and never worked the whole weekend, downstairs bedroom was smelly but after airing did get better, very limited hot water, worked in odd bathrooms at odd times, had to use each other’s showers due to hot water issues, 2 nights an electric pumps was running all night so 2 of the bedrooms were noisy, I spent a huge amount of time on the phone with the owner being talked through to switch this, open that try this that and the other eventually I was talked through to open a locked cupboard that was full of electric heaters and plug them in, I eventually got fed up and just carried on with enjoying our weekend away in Criccieth, the owner initially agreed to a part refund but had a change of mind. I would recommend Criccieth but not this house

Adversely Disappointed!! The guest from Hell!!! Customer satisfaction is extremely important to us. We go above and beyond to keep the property to a high standard as 99% of guests will agree .Owning and letting this property for the past 5 years we have Never experienced such a daunting ordeal! Unfortunately, due to the avaricious society and world we live in there’s certainly no compassion or appreciation as to what effort is implemented. Out of our control, due to an air lock in the central heating system and part of the hot water and heating was affected. We immediately supplied x 6 heaters. Within 12 hours plumber spent 3 hours trying to rectify the issue. The room temperature averaged at 19.5-20 degrees. As compensation we offered the use of Penthouse to resolve the issue on the request that they sacrificed the room that had the noise of the pump and so-called smell which (strangely disappeared!) After inspection it was revealed that Only x 2 SHOWERS could have possibly been affected by the malfunction as the other x 3 operate independently. Proof being the property has been let twice after this occasion with no issues and Extremely satisfied guests! Putting all into perspective we did everything within our power to resolve the situation. Disappointingly after all the effort we were then requested to reimburse £300!! We were prepared to further compensate a further £100 but unfortunately were not given time to do so. The guest was aware that sadly we we had just lost a close family member, still no compassion! Thus as a result the vindictive review. Hence this guest is certainly NOT welcome to return to very popular property to which many guests are delighted with!!!!
