Michael
October 2024

“Really great location and value for money with the cottage”

- Michael, October 2024
Chris September 2024

“We had a really great time.”

The cottage was just right. Clean and comfortable, peace and quiet with great views over the fields. Yet less than a mile leisurely stroll down to Abersoch with its shops, restaurants and beaches. We liked it so much we have already booked for next year.

- Chris, September 2024
Helen August 2024

“Larger fridge would be very useful especially a bigger freezer.”

Lots of dust under beds

- Helen, August 2024
Neil July 2024

“Lovely little cottage at a great price.”

It had everything we needed and really enjoyed sitting out in the patio garden area, very peaceful. Also great to have a little welcome pack, loved the Barrabread and welsh cakes.

- Neil, July 2024
Sally July 2024

“Beautiful and peaceful location.”

Great for walking into Abersoch. Very clean and good facilities. Feedback. Ice compartment at top of fridge needs defrosting no space to keep ice. Also difficult to replace the key safe cover. We had to leave it open.

- Sally, July 2024
Gerald September 2023

“Lovely holiday in beautiful location can’t fault it pure bliss hope to return soon”

- Gerald, September 2023
Thomas July 2023

“It was a great cottage and we were very pleased that bread, milk,eggs and Welsh cakes were provided as a welcome.”

I would have liked to have known where to leave the rubbish as I didn't like to leave it in the kitchen. Please let me know if you have a link that I could share with my friends on Facebook as I would highly recommend it. Sara Bowen. Mother of Thomas Flaherty who booked the cottage.

Jane June 2023

“Very basic property could do with a bit of modernising.”

Amazing views across the back of the property. Would have been better if towels and washing up liquid where included in the list seemed odd that other items where all in but not these items. WiFi very sketchy.

- Jane, June 2023
Sally April 2023

“Great holiday cottage.”

Basic but clean and comfortable. We loved it. Thank you

- Sally, April 2023
Kate July 2022

“Good little house for a family.”

The only thing I would say was that it was over priced. We had friends who were staying in another house which was closer to town and slept 9, it was considerably larger than our house and they were paying slightly less.

- Kate, July 2022
Tony September 2021

“Very enjoyable stay and within a walking distance of town.”

- Tony, September 2021
Bob September 2021

“Lovely cottage, very well equipped and great location for the lovely village and for travelling beyond.”

Very helpful owners, and a nice welcome pack on arrival. Only real negative, cleanliness was not what we would look for, particularly the bathroom, which we had to clean on arrival as it had only had a light clean before. I read that extra cleaning was in place because of covid and the bathroom was not even up to normal standards.

- Bob, September 2021
Julie July 2020

“Positive - We had a lovely holiday, the views from the property were amazing and we really enjoyed watching the cows in the field, especially when they came up to the windows and the outside area.”

The property had most facilities, some were removed because of covid - which is understandable. It was very quiet and peaceful, a short walk to Abersoch (my 7 year old walked fine without complaining) Negative - We felt the cottage could of been cleaned a little more, there were cobwebs on the ceiling, it was quite dusty in places, the windows had not been cleaned. Also my son dropped a dice down the cracks in the sofa, when we reached it out lots of crumbs came out (a peanut which we don’t eat so it was from someone else). The beds were comfy enough but we found the mattress on the single beds were too small, I had to wedge a pillow at the bottom to stop it moving about. Also one of the beds was broken underneath so had to be really careful when turning in bed.

- Julie, July 2020
Mike September 2019

“Lovley cottage, a little clinical maybe but everything you need on hand, great comms from owners.”

It's a fair hike up a steep hill from the town which we'd worked out for ourselves prior to visiting but worth noting.

- Mike, September 2019
Caroline August 2019

“Our fourth year in this lovely peaceful cottage just a stones throw away from beautiful Abersoch.”

Perfect location, clean and spacious for our 3 growing girls. We will be back.

- Caroline, August 2019
Garry June 2019

“Cottage is in a great location, very peaceful with lovely views over fields and with a short walk into town.”

- Garry, June 2019
Chris May 2019

“The holiday cottage met our expectations and was set in a beautiful location but the standard of the pre holiday clean was extremely poor.”

There was dust and cobwebs everywhere. Layers of grease on the kitchen table, lounge table and work tops. Tomato sauce on the legs of the kitchen table. Deposits of food left in the oven trays and outdoor bbq. Odd numbers of cutlery and cracked plates left in the kitchen cupboards.

- Chris, May 2019
Martin March 2019

“Had a lovely weekend at this cottage, it was very clean and tidy and cosy and warm when we arrived.”

Peaceful and quiet with wonderful scenery. We especially loved the little lambs skipping about in the next field There's just one thing I'd ask for, any chance of putting up hooks in bathroom as we had nowhere to hang our clothes when having showers Would recommended this cottage to others

- Martin, March 2019
Simone August 2018

“This holiday let provided such a great holiday.”

Fantastic location. Privacy that we wanted and we loved the friendly cows in the field directly behind us. Will be booking it again in the future as it was really comfortable and spacious.

- Simone, August 2018
Craig August 2018

“The cottage was great, in a lovely setting overlooking open fields.”

The cottage was very spacious. There was plenty of space to park and sit out front or back with a table and BBQ there. Felt very much home from home. It was lovely and quiet tucked up at the top of Abersoch, but with an easy and expected 15 minute walk to the village, the beach and a similar walk to Llanengan. The fact there was no Wifi didn't bother us at all, even though we had teenagers. Getting out and about was far more important. The only niggle we had was the smell from the fridge which subsided after we cleaned it. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back. Thanks

- Craig, August 2018
Eric July 2018

“Excellent Holiday Accommodation in converted barn that was much bigger than we expected from the listing photographs.”

Superb location with easy walking downhill into Abersoch and an even closer Spa supermarket. Lovely countryside surrounding the private front and rear gardens with cows and sheep just over the fence. Panoramic views of Snowdonia and the sea when walking down the lane into the village. Would definitely recommend and love to return one day.

- Eric, July 2018
Mark May 2018

“Beautiful cottage inside and out , lovely and relaxing surroundings , just what we wanted.”

We had a great time will be booking again

- Mark, May 2018
Daniel March 2018

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, we would love to come back here.”

Better than we expected and a great price. P.S. We loved having the little lambs in the field next to us.

- Daniel, March 2018

“Wonderful time had by all ,sixth visit to this cottage ,will definitely be back next year.”

- Howard, May 2017
Michelle June 2016

“The cottage was the perfect spot for our first family holiday.”

It is only a 15 minute walk into Abersoch downhill. The surrounding countryside is beautiful with lots of easy walks along country lanes. The resident cows and sheep in the field next door were very friendly too! We will definitely be returning in the future and would highly recommend this to families looking for the perfect break.

- Michelle, June 2016
Emma September 2015

“The cottage is beautiful, spotlessly clean and fresh.”

Lovely setting, really tranquil. Its well appointed as well with virtually everything you could need.

- Emma, September 2015
Julia June 2015

“A beautiful cottage which was immaculately clean and in a lovely location.”

The children enjoyed greeting the cows over the fence every morning and would most definitely stay here again and would recommend it. The location was perfect for us, it was in easy walking distance to the beach and amenities. A beautiful setting.

- Julia, June 2015
Janette August 2014

“A lovely cottage in a great location.”

- Janette, August 2014
Peter October 2013

“The location of the property was excellent, and was within walking distance of Abersoch and within driving distance of the attractions in Snowdonia and the Llyn Peninsula.”

It was quiet and peaceful, making for a relaxing holiday. The amenities were excellent, and given the seasonal weather it was warm and comfortable.

- Peter, October 2013
John May 2013

“Overall excellent weekend, will probably book again later in the year.”

“The cottage was set in beautiful surroundings.”

My 2 year old son particularly liked the fact he could wake up every morning and see sheep and cows from his bedroom window. We enjoyed the spacious accommodation too and the location was fantastic with plenty of beaches, scenic walks, shops and amenities near by.

“We loved everything about this holiday, the house was fantastic.”

The setting was beautiful especially watching the lambs. It was my husband's first time in Abersoch and mine in 28 years, so it was a special trip for us both. It was so enjoyable, it really was. I will be going back there again this year because we enjoyed everything about our holiday.

- Sandra, March 2011

About the location

ABERSOCH

Pwllheli 6 miles.

The attractive harbour village of Abersoch is situated on the Llyn Peninsula in a region of Wales renowned for its outstanding scenery and varied walking. The village, situated between two glorious bays, is one of the most popular sailing venues in North Wales and important sailing regattas are held there throughout the summer months. Numerous shops cater for the tourist as well as pubs, restaurants and cafes. There are also opportunities for golfers as there is a course just outside the village and horse riding facilities are also available nearby. Watersports enthusiasts are also well catered for, particularly windsurfing, water skiing and dinghy sailing, not to mention renowned surfing at Port Neigwl (Hell’s Mouth). The long, sandy Abersoch Main Beach is probably the most popular beach in the area. There is a wonderful selection of beaches in the surrounding area of the Llyn Peninsula, including the beautiful and often quiet Porth Ceriad, with it's high cliffs, and sandy Porth Oer ("Whistling Sands"). Most of the coastline is owned by the National Trust and there are many remote bays, sandy beaches and cliffs, as well as wildlife havens like Bardsey Island to explore.
