* *We made a last minute decision to visit the Llyn Peninsula for a well needed break, and chose Tyân Lon.* *The house was clean and well presented, and had everything we needed for our brief stay.* *We wanted to iron some of our clothes as they were creased after travelling, so we called their number and one was dropped off thirty minutes later.* *Really enjoyed the area and visited a couple of pubs in Chwilog and Pwllheli, and even bumped in to Wayne Rooney, who was in the area.* *Beautiful area. We hope to return later this year.*

House was tidy and clean on arrival, although we ran out of towels after one day. We called the number on the sign left in the house and were told we would have new towels within the hour, or we could pop across the road the the offices of the Bee Line cleaners, who would give us replacements straight away, which we did. Would have liked a TV in the downstairs bedroom, but made do with my iPad; I really liked the retro wall lights though. Y Ffor is well located for trips out and we visited Caernarfon, Nefyn, and Porthmadog. We had a great time and the weather wasn't as bad as we thought it might be; we will definitely be coming back to the area and would happily stay with you again."

While we were in North Wales, we stayed at Ty'n Lon for 3 days. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the magnificent scenery (weather notwithstanding) and found the house to be a wonderful, comfortable shelter from the elements outside. We came away after our stay with some lovely memories of the area, and a new caravan! What a trip! We would certainly return when the weather is a little better
