Guests say
Hafod is a well-received cottage in North Wales, praised for its stunning location, comfortable and spacious accommodation, and friendly hosts. Guests enjoyed the proximity to Snowdonia and the coast, as well as the peaceful farm setting. The property is equipped for a self-catering stay, with some guests mentioning thoughtful touches like Welsh cakes.
Most guests found the property to be very clean and well-maintained, though there was a single mention of dust causing discomfort for a guest with allergies. This seems to be an isolated incident rather than a common concern.
The location is highly praised for its beautiful views, proximity to Snowdonia, the coast, and various attractions. It's described as peaceful and perfect for exploring North Wales, although a few guests missed having a local pub within walking distance.
The majority of guests found the property comfortable, with ample space and a welcoming atmosphere. However, a few guests mentioned that the beds were too hard for their liking, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
The property is well-equipped for a self-catering holiday, with guests appreciating the kitchen and other amenities. Some minor criticisms included an extractor hood that was just for show and a lack of phone signal, but these did not significantly detract from the overall experience.
While guests mentioned thoughtful gestures such as Welsh cakes on arrival, there is not enough information to determine if such gifts are a consistent offering or to assess the overall thoughtfulness of the hosts. Therefore, a score cannot be provided, and guests should note that such gestures, while appreciated, may not be guaranteed.

Everything you needed was there, it was clean, comfortable and the owners were on hand if you did need anything. Great location for exploring the Llyn Peninsular and Anglesey. We had a lovely time - thank-you

The owners were friendly and helpful. We were pleased to have an efficient system for heating and hot water because of a cold snap. The advice not to use sat nav is valuable. Sat nav finds the village ok, but from then on follow the owner's directions!
