“Lovely cottage in great location.”

Easy access down road or public footpaths to the beach and local amenities. Grounds are kept immaculately with a lovely big pond and seating. Owners very accommodating. Will be returning.

“A beautiful cottage and a perfect location for anyone wanting peace and relaxation.”

The bed is very comfortable and the cottage is well equipped. The sun rises directly behind the cottage and sets directly in front of it. It's a 5 minute walk to the coastal path which has stunning views. We tried the Indian restaurant, the local chippy and had a very nice kebab... all very nice.

“This Cottage was expensive so I expected a high level of cleanliness and comfort etc.”

The cottage was dusty. The kitchen needed a good clean. You have to move the rubbish bin to be able to stack the dishwasher!I found remnants of breakfast cereal under the sofa! The bathroom was cleanish but the floor was very dusty. The seal on the shower door was broken. The bed linen was ok but one of the pillow cases was marked with black streaks. Towels were small. The chest of drawers in the main bedroom only had one empty drawer. The windows were dirty inside and out. Instruction booklets for microwave, cooker etc were not evident. I eventually found the booklets hidden in a drawer in the kitchen. No instructions as to what to do with general rubbish and recycling. The cottage is in a lovely position and very near the beach but needs to be to be throughly cleaned before guests arrive.

- Susan, August 2024

I am sorry to hear that after all of the rummaging throughout the cottage, you managed to find a cornflake under the sofa. The hard-pressed professional cleaners will be suitably reprimanded for their unforgivable dereliction of duty. I am also sorry to hear that you had to go through the trauma of adjusting the position of the kitchen bin to stack the dishwasher. This is clearly an oversight by the kitchen planners and I apologise. The windows were cleaned inside and out the week before you arrived, so unless an insect with dirty boots crawled all over them, I am not sure where the dirt you referred to has materialised from. The bathroom floor was mopped the day before you arrived, so well done for finding any dust there! Well done also for finding a slight tear on the bottom of the shower screen that did not affect the function of using the shower. I will ensure that the cleaners are issued with bigger magnifying glasses to spot major damage going forward. Towels are a standard size for holiday rental accommodation. Some of the drawers in the chest of drawers had things in which are useful around the house. The entire house including kitchen was professionally cleaned the day before you arrived. As for you thinking that the cottage was expensive, the charge was about the same as renting a caravan in peak season. Thanks again for bringing all these grave matters to our attention.

“Stayed here for the second ,6-13 Oct .”

Our first time was in June , on that occasion we did have to complain regarding the stained pillows etc . This had been rectified to a good standard . Enjoyed the stay on both occasions

“The cottage was in a fantastic location and the local scenery was beautiful.”

Loved the duck pond. However on arrival we we’re slightly disappointed that there was no welcome pack and the cottage wasn’t as clean as it should have been. Long dead spider in the kitchen and the bin was dirty. Also we did experience a leak on our first morning from the upstairs bathroom to the dining room. A plumber was called out by the owner and arrived mid afternoon. He told us the sealant around the bath/shower and the basin needed replacing so hopefully when that is done no one else will experience the problem again. The bathroom did smell very musty. We also thought it would benefit from having a roller blind attached to the window for extra privacy. We also struggled to work the microwave, oven and hob because there was no instructions in the property for them. Again it would be really helpful to have a folder with a set of instructions on how to use certain equipment and also where and when to recycle and dispose of rubbish etc Overall the cottage was very comfortable and is in an ideal location , just needs abit more help and guidance for its guests and some TLC

“Beautiful cottage in a perfect location.”

Lots of beaches and cliff top walks nearby ... kitchen had a really good oven and dishwasher...The heating system was perfect, kept the cottage lovely and warm. The duck pond and surrounding area was immaculately kept.. The only downside was the cleanliness of the cottage ... dust all round the lounge and the sofa cushions had seen better days and needed a wash... A mop and bucket would be good as all the floors are carpet free downstairs. I bought a pack of disposable floor wipes just to maintain the cleanliness. Simple little touches is all that is required. And a bit of TLC ... I would recommend staying at the cottage.

“Great location.”

Very quiet in a beautiful area with some really nice walks along the coast path and not far from the beach.The only real negative was that the property is described as having a smart TV. Unfortunately this is inaccurate. The TV is terrestrial freeview only.

“Firstly, we have to say the location of the property was superb for our needs.”

Unfortunately, the cottage had a "not very clean feel" as soon as we walked in. We weren't sure what it was, as the cottage on first impression was very well presented, taking into consideration the age. Our initial feel about the property was unfortunately confirmed during our stay. The first thing that came to light was when we removed a shelf from the fridge to fit in the provisions we took with us, and we noticed an open carton of almond milk, and more disturbingly mould growing on the back of one of the shelves. Then whilst siting in the lounge we noticed quite a few "bits" on the floor (but unfortunately we couldn't address this as we were unable to get any of the vacuum cleaners to work); and when we removed the bin liner from the kitchen bin on leaving, the bin had obviously not been washed for a while. The bed was very comfortable but when we stripped the bed on leaving, I noticed the mattress protector and duvet were both stained. We didn’t like the large rug in the bathroom and felt that the tiles were more hygienic, but we appreciate that these may become slippery when wet. It would have been useful to have cleaning products and cloths etc in the bathroom to clean the bath after use. On the subject of cleaning products, the bare minimum left for our use i.e. one washing machine tablet, a tiny bit of washing up liquid in the bottom of the bottle, the same for the handwash and one loo roll just smacked of miserly. For us the attention to detail by the cleaners, and the measly provisions let this property down.

In order to leave the property as you find it, it needs a decent vacuum.

Pam September 2022

“Lovely cottage, generously equipped - although I must admit the hob remained a mystery to me!”

Lovely enclosed and sunny rear garden and walks straight from the door. It took me a while to find the turning - the hedges were overgrown and I couldn't see the landmark bungalow on the corner - but once found it was perfect. Would definitely go back again.

- Pam, September 2022
Nicola September 2022

“Really enjoyed our stay, cosy comfortable little house, ideal for beaches coastal paths, would recommend to family and friends.”

Only one little gripe the recycling bins were over flowing when we arrived bottles all over ground in front garden where bins are kept.

Zoe August 2022

“Beautiful cottage, tranquil, virtually no cars.”

Returned from last year. New kitchen is fantastic! Option of outdoor toilet very handy if needed. Shame the duck pond had dried up due to weather but hopefully will come back through the seasons. Happy restful stay again. Thank you!

- Zoe, August 2022
Tim August 2022

“The only negative thing about the holiday is that the pond outside was empty.”

We were looking forward to breakfast with the ducks. Not really anything the property owners have any control over.

“Great stay lovely place would definitely book again thank you.”

Wonderful location and the cottage was perfect. One small thing an ironing board would be useful but appreciate there might not be anywhere to store it not a major thing at all.

Cottage in idilyc location , advertised as having a washing machine didn't and the cottage was absolutely filthy , would have thought that in these times we are living in cleanliness would have been a high priority but not in this property

“Lovely cottage located in a fabulous area.”

Had everything we needed. Beautiful area, near beaches, mountains, fabulous walks and lots of places of interest near. Cottage, gardens and surrounding area are beautiful kept. Well had a great relaxing holiday. Thank you so much and we will be back. Highly recommend to others as a great holiday destination.

“The cottage is in a great location and could score highly except for a few issues.”

The cottage is lacking a few basic items such as a high chair and a freezer. The kitchen needs to be restocked with glassware/utensils etc and I’d warn against putting anything glass in the fridge door, particularly with a tiled floor which should probably be linoleum. A modernised and refitted kitchen (with modern cooker) would make this place 100% better. If that happened we’d definitely be back. The place wasn’t particularly clean when we arrived, which might just mean giving your cleaners an extra hour or two to be more thorough.

- Nicholas, August 2021
Ella August 2021

“There were lots of positives to this cosy cottage , including the great location.”

However, we thought that there should be more warning about the very narrow lane with a extremely tight corner which we found out was impossible for supermarket deliveries. And for the price , I think there should be a freezer and little details , like only being provided with one toilet roll etc was disappointing.

The property

The property is halfway between Morfa Nefyn and Nefyn, hidden away in a small hamlet overlooking a pretty duck pond.

Surrounded by scenic mountains and just a few mins walk from the coastal path and beech.

2 Sea View Cottage offers an idyllic retreat for families wanting to escape to the North Wales coast, as well as being under an hour’s drive from the Eryri National Park (Snowdonia).

After a day of coastal walks, look forward to unwinding in the sitting room, home to a traditional décor, this room makes a lovely spot to wind down each evening or gather round the dining table and enjoy a delicious feast, prepared in the galley kitchen that comes equipped with a selection of appliances including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge.

Seek comfort in one of the delightful bedrooms, with a double and adult bunk on offer, both neutrally styled and served by a bathroom with bath and shower over, so you can decide how best to prepare for the day.

Spend some time out at the front, taking in your surroundings whilst enjoying a picnic at the bench, before feeding the ducks and geese the leftovers of lunch.

The town of Nefyn makes a superb holiday base all year round, hosing a good selection of shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants, as well as its own sandy dog-friendly beach, with idyllic rock pools to explore as well as being sheltered by the stunning Nefyn Headland, opening up miles of picturesque walking routes.

Brush up on local history at the Llŷn Maritime Museum before enjoying some traditional fish and chips whilst strolling along the beachfront.

The golden beaches of both Abersoch and Pwllheli are within easy reach too, the first being extremely popular with families for its safe swimming and variety of watersports, while slightly further afield you can find the charming town of Porthmadog, home to even more eateries offering something for every taste, as well as a station for the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, a must-see for the keen trainspotter offering a different way to absorb the unspoilt surroundings.

2 Sea View Cottage makes a fantastic touring base for exploring so many coastal and countryside attractions.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
