“The property was perfect and the location was a lovely area.”

The house had everything you needed. The bath was small but it is stated in the description so we expected it. The children loved the little yard at the back to relax in. The living room and kitchen were large sizes so made it perfect for space with the kids.

“We have stayed previously at the little bakehouse when it first opened, at that time we found the beds to be very uncomfortable, we were pleased to see the beds had changed and a lot more comfortable.”

I feel the house needs some TLC, the house was surface clean but we all felt it needed a ‘deep clean’ and generally some tidying up of things. Utensils such as glassware were limited, 3 champagne flutes and no matching water glasses. We found the sofas to be really uncomfortable and felt footstools may make it more comfortable. We also thought the house would benefit from a coffee table, we have young children and they wanted to play with there Lego and be in the lounge with us. We had to contact the owners while we were there, they answered straight away and were really helpful. Overall, it is good value for money compared to other properties we have stayed at before in criccieth.

Deb August 2024

“A lovely, clean property.”

Ideally situated to access the beach, shops and castle. The stairs are a bit steep as described so if you struggle with mobility be aware. People walking through the front garden was not an issue. It did not bother us at all. The yard at the back was lovely and quite secluded. A few minor niggles such as no wardrobe in the front bedroom and the door wouldn't shut properly. Overall, good value for money in high season. The grandchildren didn't want to leave!

- Deb, August 2024
Samantha August 2024

“The kitchen is poorly stocked for a family of four, I suspect breakages have not been replaced.”

We had a minor issue with towels which the owner rapidly dealt with which was excellent. The cottage is perfectly located for the beach and town, we’ve stayed here before and would stay again only we have now outgrown the cottage as kids are becoming teenagers. This place is perfect for a small family or a couple.

Steven August 2024

“This was a great cottage in a great location.”

The property was well set out and it catered very well for our two kids. Both of the kids want to come back again next year, and my youngest was particularly sad to leave the cottage.

“We really loved our stay there.”

A good basis to explore the Llyn Peninsula. Would like to come back one day.

Linda April 2023

“Beautiful private place.”

Great friendly neighbours ,amazing location. Beds comfortable and adequate space. In my opinion the only way it could be improved would be more upto date bedding to compliment the bedrooms and replacing the towels and sofa blankets as they felt and looked past their sell by date. ,Also a tv upstairs would be great. We loved the area and thought we would love to stay again as it was so relaxing and beautiful there.

Jayne April 2023

“Once inside the property this beautiful, cosy cottage is very welcoming, comfortable and furnished to a high standard.”

It had everything we needed and obviously a lot of thought has gone into providing all the essentials required for its customers. However, unfortunately the cottage is let down by its shabby exterior. The front is overgrown with bushes that need trimming back and the fencing is all broken and looks very untidy, which is such a shame as it spoils the overall impression. Parking was also an issue for us and I think clearer instructions should be made available on this subject.

- Jayne, April 2023
Kylie-ann April 2023

“We had a lovely week here.”

The cottage was absolutely spotless and really beautifully done out. Great location, we loved the beaches and the ice cream shop round the corner was great. Perfect location for us climbing Snowdon and visiting the other popular sites. Would definitely visit again.

Haf March 2023

“Had a fantastic stay.”

Really close to the sea and the views are fantastic. Brilliant coastal walks in both directions. Great for dog walking and lots of dog friendly cafès in the town. The house itself was perfect and had everything we needed. There's a well enclosed (although small) courtyard at the back of the kitchen which was perfect for the dog. If, like mine, your dog is likely to try and escape, this is very secure and there's no way out. The house is very modern and clean. The beds were comfortable and the linen and towels provided were great. I wouldn't think twice about booking again. I've booked many holiday cottages through Sykes and this is up there with the best considering value for money, location and the quality of the accomodation. I would say parking is the only downside as there isn't parking at the property itself, but there's plenty of parking nearby.

David March 2023

“Great cottage, very clean, well maintained and some excellent energy saving lighting and heating ideas.”

Great location too, very quiet and peaceful. Overall it was one of the best cottages we have stayed in. Shame that there was only a double bed, but that is the limit for the size of the bedrooms in this old cottage. I'm 1.96m so not ideal for me. Could do with a small table in front of the settee, but apart from that very well appointed. What3words. Car park & cottage ///footpath.patio.runways ///tidal.this.titles

“I've just recommended it to a friend ,I would recommend it to anyone but my only gripe was the bedding ,it was very thin ,no extras ,apart from the two throws downstairs for the sofas , and the pillows were poor too , so I didn't really have good sleeps , plus I found a box of durex under the bed which put me right off !”

- Julie, November 2022
Samantha November 2022

“Little Bakehouse was perfect!”

My partner and I took our 2 dogs away for a week in Criccieth. The location of Little Bakehouse is brilliant, nice and quiet but only a 5-10 minute walk to the beaches. The cottage was spotless and the courtyard at the back was perfect for letting the dogs out first thing / last thing at night. Everything worked as per the instructions left and it just had such a lovely feel about the place - we would definitely come back. One tiny suggestion: perhaps put a couple of suggestions in your welcome pack about nearby places to go - we discovered Beddgelert (and Beddgelert forest with its beautiful lake) - help your guests explore the surrounding areas.

Carmel October 2022

“Beautiful comfortable property that ticks all the boxes for a truly enjoyable holiday, a real home from home.”

Owner were extremely helpful when contacted over a small detail, also very accommodating when we requested a slightly later departure time.

- Carmel, October 2022
Linda October 2022

“Took a little time to find tbis lovely cottage but we were very happy with it.”

The only negative i can genuinely give is as previos guests had are the stairs are narrow and steep, i am partially disabled and found them difficult. And not as close to the sea as we thought. But for those of you who don,t have any difficulties this is a truely lovely place.

- Linda, October 2022

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at the Little Bakehouse. We will make sure that the agency highlights better the information about the stairs in the property on the website. Property Owner
Wendy October 2022

“This is a great little cottage in a beautiful location.”

It has a well equipped kitchen and the lounge area had two very comfortable settees. The garden is compact but adequate and when our two small dogs went out we knew they were completely safe and if the weather was nice, it would be a lovely place to sit . There is not much room at the side of the bed in the main room to get into bed and could prove difficult for some. It is very near local amenities (shop, pub , chipshop). It makes a wonderful base for exploring the area. If we come back to the area we would definitely stay here again

- Wendy, October 2022

Thank you for taking the time to write us a positive review. We are so pleased that you had a great stay at Little Bakehouse. Property Owner
Kay September 2022

“We loved the Little Bakehouse once we found it, had to contact owners as with the directions given and Sat Nav we still couldn’t find it!”

…needs a note putting on the white door saying to come through that, everything in the cottage was spotless , facilities great, brilliant for the 2 of us and 2 small dogs…but sadly, we both suffered really badly with severe back ache after just one night in the double bed, the bed slopes to the wall and is really hard so not great, tried the other bed, same kind of Mattress, too hard, ended up sleeping in turns on the sofa, if it wasn’t for the beds I would def book here again, as the location is superb, but having not had a decent nights sleep all week, it did put a bit of a downer on our week.

- Kay, September 2022

I'm sorry that you found the directions to the property confusing, however I'm relieved that I was able to help. Following this being brought to my attention, the directions have now been amended and the mattresses which you found uncomfortable have now been changed. I'm sorry that you found these aspects of the property unsatisfactory, I'd love to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner
Karen August 2022

“Little bake house was lovely, everything you could possibly want,comfortable and clean,close to beach,castle and amenities.”

Would definitely stay again.

- Karen, August 2022

Thank you! Property Owner
Matt August 2022

“Lovely home, that provided an ideal base for a weeks holiday.”

Clean, snug and in the heart of Cricieth. Perfect for a couple or small family.

- Matt, August 2022

Tom June 2022

“Little bakehouse is a fantastic cottage.”

We have had a few holidays in this cottage and will definitely book it again in the future.

- Tom, June 2022

Thank you, I'm glad you had another great stay at Little Bakehouse. We will look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. Property Owner
Susan June 2022

“Very nice property but not the easiest place to find.”

Instructions said to park outside the nearby bungalow but half way through the week was asked to move my car which was not ideal.

- Susan, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback. The directions have now been amended to clarify the property's location. Please accept my apologies on behalf of my neighbour, parking at Little Bakehouse is usually fine if everyone stays aware of leaving access for all. Property Owner
Patricia June 2022

“Beautiful, modern, warm and cosy two bedroomed cottage, spotlessly clean and in a great location in the heart of Criccieth.”

Also has a lovely backyard area with seating and decking. Our only gripe is that the cottage is tucked away and a sign displayed in Castle Square, as to where the Little Bakehouse is actually situated would have been ideal. Having said that we would still recommend.

- Patricia, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Akram June 2022

“The best place to live in.”

Very private & comfortable!! The standard of everything is excellent. We had excellent nights sleeps in super comfy beds. It is extremely comfortable with stunning views.The cottage has been carefully designed and lots of extras were included, in fact everything that you may need during your stay. Will highly recommend to friends and hope to be back. Thank you! Syed & family..

- Akram, June 2022

Thank you so much for writing a wonderful, positive review of Little Bakehouse! We are so pleased that you love the property as much as we do, we would love to welcome you and your family back again in the future. Property Owner
Trevor May 2022

“Excellent property.”

Very cosy and very convenient. Would love to return but price will be the biggest factor to consider.

- Trevor, May 2022

Thank you. Property Owner
Richard May 2022

“The cottage was lovely, clean and had everything we could wish for.”

Our only complaint is that the beds were not very comfortable which caused us to not sleep very well. Apart from this everything was perfect.

- Richard, May 2022
Neil April 2022

“Lovely cottage, warm and comfortable, in a great location.”

Many thanks.

- Neil, April 2022
Steve March 2022

“It was a nice stay.”

The stairs require a refurb and whilst the garden may have right of way access its not ideal.Whilst the cottage has effectively two double rooms 4 people around the very small table represents a challenge.The bedrooms are very small and space is at a premium.Its location and its parking need to further defined as well. However there were no notifiable issues or problems.

- Steve, March 2022
Nick March 2022

“Very nicely done Tip don't follow sat nab.”

You won't find it.follow direction s given.

“We had a amazing stay cottage was beautiful and great location would definitely return”

- Stacey, February 2022
Helen January 2022

“We really enjoyed our stay here.”

We arrived a bit early, so we could find the location in the daylight as we thought it might be a bit tricky to locate (it was) and it was just about to be cleaned so we went off to explore. The property is very nice, clean, modern and with tasteful good quality furnishings. Downstairs is more spacious than expected. It has everything you can possibly need. The little courtyard is really cute but as it was January we didn’t get to enjoy it. Had the best sleep we have had in ages, comfy beds (a bit soft to our preference but still ok) and it was soooo quiet. Being January it was very cold but heating in the property was great, and we were very cosy. We parked in front of the bungalow as instructed, it’s a bit of a tight squeeze getting past the houses in Henbont Rd if you’ve got a large car. Criccieth is lovely, we went to the little cafe Tir a Mor by the level crossing which was very nice (it was closed after that at the start of the week which was disappointing as we would have gone back). Also wanted a Chinese takeaway on our final night but it was closed due to Chinese New Year so we got a kebab & burger from the shop on the High St instead which was awful. We also ate at Dylan’s which was OK. Would thoroughly recommend this property!

- Helen, January 2022
Vicky January 2022

“Lovely property, in a beautiful location.”

Difficult to find in the dark. Lovely and clean, friendly neighbours, owners very helpful and approachable. We'll definitely be back!

- Vicky, January 2022
Lorraine October 2021

“Unfortunately we only stayed 2 days of our 7 day holiday and came home early.”

The beds were so uncomfortable it gave my husband terrible back and hip pain. Such a shame as the rest of the cottage is beautiful

- Lorraine, October 2021

I'm so sorry that you found the beds uncomfortable. We have taken feedback on board and have now changed the mattresses at the property. I hope that you will come back and visit in the future. Property Owner
Paula August 2021

“Everything was perfect.”

The cottage was warm, clean and cosy and had everything we needed for our stay. We will definitely be returning next year. Thank you Paula and family

- Paula, August 2021
Ruth July 2021

“We had a wonderful week at the Little Bakehouse.”

The cottage was in a very quiet location (parking is available outside the adjacent bungalows) but easy access to all the facilities in the town. The cottage was super clean and stylishly furnished, making our stay even more enjoyable. Criccieth is centrally located for exploring both the coast and Snowdonia - we will be back!

- Ruth, July 2021
Ian & Diane July 2021

“What a wonderful clean and comfortable cottage.”

The owner came straight back to us when we asked a question. The garden area was lovely on an evening for a glass of wine and a game of dominoes. I would advise anyone going to Google restaurants and book in advance. We would highly recommend this cottage and will be back ourselves.

- Ian & Diane, July 2021
Tom June 2021

“This was our third stay at Little Bakehouse.”

It is a very clean, very cosy cottage. It is well situated close to all that Criccieth has to offer. It really is a little gem. We love this cottage so much that we have already booked it for next year,coming back for a three week stay.

- Tom, June 2021
Delia May 2021

“It is a great cottage fulfilled our needs.”

- Delia, May 2021
Trevor April 2021

“Excellent place to stay.”

Loved the position. Price was very reasonable. Couldn't find long handled brush to sweep up sand. TV reception on all channels except BBC was not good. Neither of these things affected our lovely holiday or comfort. Just feeding back what we found. Thank you.

- Trevor, April 2021
Amanda October 2020

“The cottage is a little gem.”

Very pleasing on the eye in a lovely location and has everything you need for a lovely escape from it all. It’s close to the beach and all the amenities but very peaceful way from it all is really. I’d recommend a visit if your in the area.

- Amanda, October 2020
Alan September 2020

“The cottage was bigger than we thought and in a very quiet area of Criccieth.”

The kitchen was well equipped, bed comfortable and the cottage was cosy and warm. Not overly keen on the automatic lighting in the bathroom, especially at 3 in the morning ! But we will definitely return and would recommend its location for access to all Snowdonia has to offer.

- Alan, September 2020
Lee September 2020

“Absolutley wonderful.”

...stay at the little Bakehouse ..the property was everything we wanted and we will return. Just a suggestion .....kitchen table a bit on the small side for a family , a tight squeeze a meal times.

- Lee, September 2020
William September 2020

“The house was really well equipped, very clean and very well maintained .”

Located close to the castle and the beach yet tucked away for peace and quiet. A very pretty cottage. Although to mention a problem with the heating may sound a negative, the speed at which the owner addressed it was commendable, couldn't have asked for more, resolved within hours. In which case I could recommend the property on all points. An added bonus were the few residents we met who lived close to the cottage; all friendly and helpful. A nice experience.

- William, September 2020
Jacqueline August 2020

“Lovely cottage, very comfortable and in a good location.”

Perfect for us and our dogs. Not suitable for people with poor mobility as the stairs are very steep and the bath is deep to climb in and out of. Didn't affect us though.

- Jacqueline, August 2020
Vanessa August 2020

“I emailed some enquires about parking, arrival and availability of a dishwasher and coffee machine or coffee pot soon after booking, weeks before arrival.”

I also resent this email. None Of these questions were answered apart from being very bluntly told we could not arrive between 3-4pm even though the only options were for 3-4 or 4-5. The cost of the accommodation was very very expensive, presumably to take full advantage of People holidaying in the UK During a worldwide pandemic, we also did not expect to have to strip all of the beds and laundry and take out all of the rubbish whilst paying £320 per night including the cost of 6 hours cleaning.

- Vanessa, August 2020
Deborah November 2019

“We have just returned from a long weekend break at the little Bakehouse in Criccieth , the cottage was wonderful, very clean and well equipped.”

After plenty of blustery walks along the Llyn Peninsula it was lovely to come back to such a lovely cosy home.idealy located for walking the dogs along the seafront as well.we will definitely be booking this again, many thanks

- Deborah, November 2019
E November 2019

“The booking was organised in an extremely efficient way, pre-holiday queries were addressed politely and helpfully and our self inflicted crisis on a dark and cold Sunday evening was managed so kindly and calmly.”

I can’t quite believe that there was such an impressive helpline available to us out of office hours. Every single aspect of Menai holidays assistance has been exemplary throughout our holiday for which we are so very grateful. The apartment was very well decorated and organised with so many helpful additions that made the holiday enjoyable. It was cosy, clean and tidy with very friendly neighbours around who were happy to chat to us as visitors. The way the outside space was designed was ideal for us to feel secure and private, and we felt very spoiled with auto lighting... we have serious courtyard envy now and since being home, am slightly confused when lights don’t come on immediately as we enter!! The town was delightful; we found open and friendly people and great service in cafes shops and restaurants in the most beautiful setting with both coastal and beach walks for dogs.

- E, November 2019

Stefan September 2019

“The cottage is well situated and modern.”

It's ideally located - within easy reach of most of North Wales's attractions (by car). It is advertised as for 5 people - which technically it can accommodate - but would be a squeeze for 5 adults. The second bedroom is more appropriate for 3 children. We had a mild concern about cleanliness. The bed in the second bedroom had a couple of long hairs in there... We didn't use the washing machine as there was some sort of black sludge in the conditioner compartment (we subsequently washed by hand and only used the washing machine as a dryer). Beyond that, it is a delightful cottage, well maintained (apart from the washing machine). A large lounge and a good sized kitchen. Plenty of parking nearby.

- Stefan, September 2019
Amanda August 2019

“Lovely little place, had everything we needed for a perfect holiday”

- Amanda, August 2019
Andrew June 2019

“Little Bakehouse Cottage was exactly as described on the website, as a family of 4 with 2 young children there was plenty of space and the cottage itself perfectly located in the centre of Criccieth.”

The cottage was well maintained and upon arrival was extremely clean. We really couldn’t fault our stay, especially considering the weather was so good!

- Andrew, June 2019
Michael June 2019

The bottom bunk was a little hard to get comfortable in unfortunately. Otherwise a lovely location & rental.

- Michael, June 2019
Lucie June 2019

“Great stay, good location.”

Walking distance to all restaurants, shops, bus stops and the beach. Our only downfall with Little Bakehouse was the bed wasn’t overly comfortable. Could do with new mattress or mattress topper.

Just one small complaint better pillows on the bed as not fluffy enough for us.

Julie Kennerley Sep 2018

“It was perfect for us , extremely well appointed and comfortable, everything had been thought of and done to a very high standard.”

In a very quiet spot and although their wasn't a view of the sea , just two minutes walk and you are on the beach or walking along the promenade, will definitely return .

- Julie Kennerley, Sep 2018
Elizabeth Peach Aug 2018

“Such a lovely cottage.”

..we've even returned for a second time!! The lighting is so nice within the cottage. The decor is warm and uplifting. Beds very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Neighbours very friendly. 10min stroll to the beach.. What more could you ask for!

- Elizabeth Peach, Aug 2018
Jul 2018

“The cottage was beautifully clean and very comfortable.”

Had everything we needed. Two very minor niggles - the house information book was not clearly identified (we mistook it for an empty photo album). This meant we had to phone the office as we didn’t know how to get hot water in the kitchen. Also the knives are all very blunt! Apart from this we loved the cottage and would definitely book it again.

“A lovely renovation of an old cottage with a new modern interior.”

A fantastic location, being next to the castle and between the two bays at Criccieth. The living space works well, with a big lounge and a well-appointed kitchen.

- , May 2018
Kate Worth Apr 2018

“The cottage was great smaller than expected but it didn't feel small because of the vaulted ceilings.”

Lovely decor, Nice lighting throughout. A few essentials I would have liked in the kitchen like a cafetiere and a dishwasher! The only thing the cottage lacked was a nice aspect as it's sandwiched between buildings and situated down a little back street lane. There is a nice enclosed courtyard but the garden on the other side is not dog proof. That said the beach is 1 minute away so no a problem really.

- Kate Worth, Apr 2018
Feb 2018

“Great property but lacking a few bits and pieces (including a teapot) and the access was very muddy and rough, due to the building work next door.”

- , Feb 2018
Jan 2018

“Nicely decorated however no outlook and not very nice approach to the entrance which is also Very muddy due to building site next door.”

Front door opens into living room, no area to take off muddy boots and clean dog. Parking difficult. No dishwasher. Electric fire very noisy .

“Great cottage but no WiFi, wasn't sure how suitable it was for dogs as we didn't like bringing them straight into the house because it was so clean and tidy.”

We didn't want them to use the lovely courtyard bit so had to take them out every time they needed to go! Nevertheless it was a lovely holiday and would recommend it to anyone.
