  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.

  Absolutely gorgeous house!

  Had everything and more that we could possibly need. Everything was lovely and good quality. Loads of space, especially having the little snug room that the kids could use if they wanted to watch a different TV channel. The showers are amazing! The little garden is a sun trap and lovely and peaceful. Lovely pubs and cafes all within walking distance. The fish and chip show opposite was very nice! There is a little steep path (about 3-4 paces) to get into the property but it wasn’t a problem for us but not sure about a wheelchair or a pram would be able to manage quite as easily as us. Parking was a mild inconvenience and there is parking opposite for an hour and then I never had a problem finding an another spot later on. The carpet shop at the front of the property has changed names and now has a new sign so bare that in mind if your using that as a landmark! I did find the strict instructions about leaving the property as clean as you find it or risk loosing the £150 good house keeping bond and stripping all the beds and having to be out by 10am a big headache while trying to keep 3 children occupied and not making anymore mess! Overall I would definitely stay in the property again.

  The flat is very spacious and the large living room, plus extra smaller living room are really useful.

  It is clean and well stocked with crockery, cutlery and pans/utensils. The flat has been renovated and decorated to a high standard, and is bright and airy. The ensuite, bathroom and downstairs shower and toilet give guests lots of options. The ensuite shower is excellent, however care needs to be taken with the downstairs shower and tray, as within a few seconds of using the shower the water started to flood the floor. The beds are comfortable and the bedrooms are a good size. I used the front main bedroom and due to the lack of curtains, I did struggle in the early hours, as the sun poured in through the venetian blinds, woke me up and made it difficult for me to go back to sleep. Anyone who is planning on staying in the property is advised to take a black-out eye mask if they are sensitive to light when trying to sleep. The addition of black out curtains would make the stay completely comfortable, especially at the time of year we stayed, which was early June. The location is excellent, both for walking around in Criccieth, exploring the Llyn Peninsula, visiting Portmeirion. The outside space was very pleasant and a good place to sit out in as chairs and tables are provided.

  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.
