  This is our third consecutive stay at this cottage and never had a problem or felt the need to contact the owner.

  But on this occasion we had no hot water. We are a family of three two adults and an eight year old boy. We had one shower each in the morning. Then went out and cycled the Mawddach on the wettest day of the stay as you can tell we got dirty. Got back expecting a nice warm shower only to find no hot water. Called the owner who was not interested all she could say was had we had excessive showers today and that the heating is on a timer and should be on by now and that she is away and if there is no hot water the next day to call her. I was not happy with her response if you have put the water on a timer and you only get one tank of hot water a day should you not let your guest know this in advance as this has not been the case previously. Luckily my wife's parents live in Harlech and we could go and get a hot shower there which was an inconvenience to us all. Yes the hot water did come back on but we felt from that day we needed to restrict our hot water usage and when you are told that you need a shower before using the hot tub it is very off putting and did affect our enjoyment of this cottage. It would of been nice to of had a follow up courtesy call back but nothing. Also found the cleanliness of the cottage not up to its usual standard it looked like it had just been wiped over rather than cleaned. Cobb webs everywhere. I get this is a country cottage but the cobwebs had been there a while as the spiders were very dead as were the ones in bedside drawers. Bathroom shower did not drain properly but felt it would fall on deaf ears if I reported it. Also on the Friday the maintenance guy just turned up and did not even introduce himself. He came to cut the lawn but we felt we could not use the garden for the two and half hours he was there. It also happened to be the one morning we could of used the garden to its full potential which is one of the reasons we go to this cottage. Is this not a job for change over day especially as he was there just as early on the Saturday to clean the hot tub for the next guests. The TV in the lounge is on its way out with lines running through it, could watch it but once again why report it. Bin in kitchen broken bowl in sink broken all things easily replaced drain outside blocked. Dead hedgehog on the drive on arrival. Don't think the hot tub chemicals were checked or topped up in the middle of our stay as stated in the hot tub instructions. Can't believe the difference between this review and the first that we left in May 2022.

  This is without question the bast place in the UK we have ever stayed.

  The property was immaculately clean, was situated in a fantastic location, and had everything you could possibly need for your stay. Just perfect for the type of holiday we wanted. There are lots of lovely walks about, several small beaches near and close to some great sightseeing locations. Plus, although you feel like you’re literally in the middle of nowhere, you’re less than a 15 minutes drive from Holyhead with every shop and amenity you could need, so forgetting something or taking everything you’ll need for your stay isn’t a problem. The property was completely clean, and although might not look it with the open spaces, really comfy and cosy of an evening. The open plan upstairs is great for small families and you’re treated to fantastic view from where ever you’re sitting. I’m really missing enjoying breakfast looking over the gorgeous scenic hills You can really tell that Sam, the host, has a passion for making peoples holiday special. Her attention to detail is brilliant, and she had just the right level of contact as to ensure your holiday and the property is okay, but nottoo much as to be overbearing. She was even so nice when our toddler caused a small breakage, only charging us for the replacement item, and not any additional breakage charged. Anglesey has become a firm favourite of mine, and although I do like staying in different properties each visit, I will struggle to not want to come back here, and will probably base my next visit to the isle around the availability of this property.

  Berwyn is an excellent holiday bungalow with good facilities.

  The beds are very comfortable and the accommodation was spotlessly clean. The kitchen/ dining area is very contemporary and the outside space is quiet and relaxing. The property had all the facilities you could wish for and we enjoyed our stay in North Wales a place we visit regularly. There are two very minor comments to make on the listings information. The directions on where to turn off the main road to the accommodation could be improved by stating it is adjacent to the change in speed road sign in Talybont and also the home telephone number for the owner/contact in the Sykes listing plus the accommodation information pack is not in use. We did need to contact the owner as unfortunately the TV aerial had a fault following thunderstorms (it was rectified during our visit) but we found it difficult in the first few days to make contact with the owner. We would recommend this property as somewhere to stay in comfort and enjoy.

  Quiet place on a private road with excellent facilities.

  Drove past it the first time but as soon as we realised it was right by the 30/40 mph road sign (depending on which way you come in) we found it. Decorated, furnished and equipped to a high standard. Very clean but the additional ‘fogging’ for the virus did put a slight oily residue on some surfaces in the lounge. These were easily cleaned off and did prove that it had been done.Beds very comfortable and lovely power shower. Kitchen well stocked with crockery, cutlery, tools and picnic glasses suitable for use outside. Washing up liquid, tea towels, tea, coffee and sugar provided which was a lovely touch along with the welcome pack of milk, butter, biscuits and welsh cakes. Hot tub was ready for use as soon as we arrived and was maintained throughout. A very relaxing holiday in a lovely area and we’ve already booked again. Thanks Diane, see you next year !

  The bungalow itself is situated lovely to see the sea.

  The grounds are stunning along with the inside of the bungalow. Very well maintained to a high standard and you can see that the owners have gone out there way to ensure you can have the best comfort possible along with everything you could think of inside the bungalow, from underfloor heating to all the utilities and high design spec throughout. The owners left us a few us a few welcome gifts which was great touch and was only a call away if for whatever reason we needed them. Absolutely gorgeous place so much so we looked to book again for June but cannot now until October. Will for sure be staying here again. On another note if you like great food from a butcher i would highly recommend going 1/2 mile down the road to the Spar which the owners own the butchers. They have award winning sausages which are scrumptious.
