The little extra touches made the stay feel like a home away from home . The town with a variety of shops were all within walking distance as was the beach and marina area . Great position to explore the Llyn peninsula . Glad I chose the property and would recommend its rental if in area

Clean, comfortable and had everything we needed except a toilet brush. Great location. Close to the beach and the town. Welcome pack was a great touch with delicious Welsh cakes. Always found a space on the street outside to park. The road is busy and quite noisy but it didnât bother us. Thank you.

Very homely and relaxing. Generous welcome gifts and fresh flowers. It's a great base for shopping and fantastic walks. We had a lovely week and would definitely book again. Easy street parking and the traffic noise was no issue for us personally - we slept great. There are "mind your head" signs on the low staircase beam but one of us still managed to hit our head so be extra careful going up and down the stairs! Lots of good places to eat nearby and the beach is only a few minutes walk. A nice view of the harbour from the upstairs windows. All in all a fantastic holiday experience. My only suggestion would be to have a hairdryer at the property. Don't hesitate to book!
