Guests appreciate the well-equipped, comfortable interiors and the blend of historic charm with modern conveniences.

The property is generally regarded as extremely clean. However, a minor issue with dead flies and an odd smell in one of the bathrooms suggests room for improvement.

A special, historic building with a beautiful, modern internal conversion. High on a hillside, the views along the countryside to Y Rhiw and down over Hell's Mouth bay, are stunning. Being out on the Llyn peninsula, the sea is in charge of the weather, which makes it either glorious or atmospheric. We loved the comfort of the sleeping and eating areas, and the retention of old features alongside the modern conveniences. A lovely place to stay.

The place was well equipped and comfortable. Quite stunning. Only downside, really no outside to sit and relax.
