  I have had an enjoyable weeks stay in Cornhill Courtyard which is a studio apartment.

  The location of the apartment is superb. It is situated in the old historic area of Porthmadog Harbour and has a wonderful view straight out over the beautiful harbour which you couldn’t better! I also really liked the fact that the large main room is so light, bright and spacious. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were also fine. Once the sofa bed was up with the topper on top it was very comfortable . However, I did have some issues with the sofa bed. I was staying in the property on my own and as a 75-year-old woman with an arthritic hip, I did find it quite a struggle at times getting the bed up and putting it away. On one occasion the fabric loops got trapped inside and it then became impossible to get it out or put it up on my own. However the owner was extremely responsive and arranged within a couple of hours for the cleaning company to come and sort it out which they did. It needed two men to lift out the mattress extension in order to release the fabric flaps. I had felt concerned about the parking situation in August. However, in the event I was able to park right outside the apartment on three occasions and very close by on the other four days. From 4:30 pm onwards Porthmadog gradually quieten down and plenty of free parking then becomes available. Security of the property is very good as there is a padlocked gate into a small courtyard. Despite the issues with the sofa bed I am very glad I stayed in the property, as I had a very enjoyable weeks holiday. It was lovely to revisit Porthmadog, which I had visited a lot as a teenager and young person, when my parents had a caravan in the area.

  This is a lovely apartment that is very close to the beach and a short walk into the centre of Criccieth.

  It's the second time we have visited and stayed here and we have always manged to park close to the property. We had lovely weather in July so were able to go to the beach to swim and have a picnic most days and it was great to be able to walk back to the apartment as it was so close. As expected, the weather was mixed in October but we were able to do lots of walking along the coastal path and in the local area. On the evenings when we didn't cook we ate out locally and can highly recommend Poachers restaurant on the High Street (delicious food, but you need to book well in advance as it is very popular), Castle Fish and Chip shop (short walk from the apartment, take away only, the queue can be very long but it's worth it for great fish and chips), The Prince of Wales, cosy pub on the High Street (hearty pub grub, big portions and great beer). We also visited Dylans which is in a lovely building overlooking the sea. In the summer we had drinks on the decking by the beach which felt like being abroad. We also ate at the restaurant and although we quite enjoyed the meal we thought it was pricy for what it was. You need to book well in advance to eat in the evening but it was easier to get a late lunchtime (4.45) booking. We really enjoyed both our stays in Criccieth so hope to be back next year.

  A lovely apartment, and well-located.

  However, although it appeared clean on the surface, it was in need of a little TLC. The sofa bed was dirty and smelled, we slept on that. The curtains were difficult to open/closed, and the privacy blinds didn't work well. The tiles in the bathroom/shower are in need of a good cleaning, and the pull cords were filthy, and quite unhygienic. There were plenty of cobwebs above head height around the apartment, and areas behind and underneath furniture were full of dust and hair. There was a lack of cleaning materials and products for us to maintain a high level whilst we were there. the outside furniture that you mentioned was old, rotten and broken. this is dangerous and needs to be replaced. However, the apartment was comfortable and the facilities were as advertised. we had a great time, but I believe that the owner should look at the poor cleaning delivered by an independent cleaning company. All of your properties we have stayed in previously have been well-cleaned by the owners and we have had no complaints on this level before. This was not the best holiday let we have had with you, but only down to the cleanliness and TLC it is lacking.

  The flat was better than expected.

  We had everything we needed in the kitchen area, with plenty of crockery/cutlery to use in the dishwasher. The lounge area has new furniture/carpeting, not reflected in the pictures and is more modern. The double bed was very comfortable, with ample storage for a week in the wardrobe/drawers. When we arrived the flat was impeccably clean, the cleaning lady is a credit to the owners! The only tiny, tiny thing I would have liked, would be a coat hook. As we did a lot of walking, we had wet coats and there is nowhere to hang them. Location is excellent, when eating at the table on the right hand side you have a full sea view, which is great when eating breakfast! Criccieth is only a short walk away and parking was not an issue. Whilst we were there the owners were carrying out all the necessary H&S checks and fire alarm/detector tests, which is reassuring to know that they are fully regulation complaint. In summary, this is a great flat, in a great location, and is well serviced.

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Nook.

  It was very clean, comfortable and generally well equipped. It was delightfully close to the seafront providing some lovely views. Great having the on-site parking too. The kitchen had an amazing, modern oven - we were very grateful for the comprehensive instruction manual. We shied away from trying the Ninja air fryer though. A few small points: A kitchen roll would have been useful. The entrance door took us a few seconds to figure out how to engage the lock - you need to fully lift the handle before turning the key or the knob on the inside. The bin use instructions are on the inside of the lids so found them after opening the bins. Helpful as everywhere seems to have different recycling guidelines. The duvet and some of the cushions have feather fillings - very soft and comfortable but we brought our own duvet as I react badly to feathers. Overall, a terrific place for two people to stay and we would certainly consider staying there again.
