Guests say

Stoneycroft is a well-received holiday cottage, praised for its cleanliness, stunning views, and high-quality furnishings. Guests appreciate the well-stocked kitchen, comfortable bedding, and thoughtful welcome pack. The garden and outdoor furniture are highlights, providing a lovely space for relaxation. Some minor maintenance issues were noted, but overall, the property is highly recommended for a peaceful retreat.

Guests consistently mention the property's spotlessness and the high standard of cleanliness, indicating meticulous upkeep.

The property boasts wonderful views and proximity to local shops and activities. However, the steep lane access may be challenging for some, slightly affecting the score.

The property is described as tastefully finished, with comfortable bedding and a home-like feel. A few minor issues with a bedside lamp and blind were mentioned but did not detract significantly from the overall comfort.

While the property is well-equipped with a kitchen, welcome pack, and EV charger, there are mentions of a broken blind, lack of iron, and desire for a clothes dryer. Due to these mixed reviews, a definitive score cannot be provided.

The welcome pack and quick responses from the owner are appreciated, demonstrating thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gifts, while delightful, are not guaranteed.

About this property

Settled in an elevated position in the charming coastal village of Harlech, in North Wales, rests this wonderful three-storey semi-detached holiday home, Stoneycroft. Framing far-reaching views towards the Llyn Peninsula and the peaks of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park whilst enjoying close proximity to a wealth of must-see sights and attractions, Stoneycroft makes an excellent base for a group celebration in Wales. Park up in one of the two off-road spaces provided before unloading your bags and making your way inside your new home-from-home, kicking off your shoes as you step into the handy hallway space that greets you upon arrival. A lengthy journey calls for rest, so flick on the television and unwind with a sumptuous spot on the corner sofa in the open-plan living/dining room, as the glow of the rustic woodburning stove crackles nearby, or simply soak in the spectacular sights across the greenery of Harlech golf course from the bay window. When stomachs start to rumble, utilise the fantastic range of facilities provided in the well-designed kitchen to rustle up a hearty feast and gather with your loved ones at the dining table to indulge. In the warmer weather, take your dining experience outdoors to your private garden, where a glass balustrade offers unspoilt views across the rooftops to the glistening waters of the coast; a truly lovely spot to enjoy an evening tipple under the stars. As day draws to night, retreat indoors and climb the stairs to the first floor where you'll find the stylish family bathroom, equipped with both a bath and a spacious walk-in shower cubicle; pour in the bubbles and indulge with a soak in the bath, or freshen up following a day of adventure with a quick rinse under the shower head. When sleep calls, choose between two doubles or a bunk room set across the way, or climb the stairs to the second floor to catch your rest in the twin room, thoughtfully tucked under the sloped ceiling and offering flexible sleeping arrangements for both families and friends sharing. Take advantage of your close proximity to the glorious sands of Harlech Beach, where you can paddle the shores as you soak in the spectacular sights towards the Eryri (Snowdonia) Mountain range, or lounge on the dunes as you indulge in a hearty picnic. A short walk from the property are a handful of local gems, including a lovely Italian restaurant that serves fantastic sit-in meals, freshly baked pastries for the mornings, and takeaway pizzas and pasta, as well as an artisan ice cream shop selling homemade, sweet treats and a local deli shop offering Welsh pies. In addition to these, there is a newly-built artisan shop where you can buy wonderful frozen ready meals, as well as fresh produce, cakes, and bread; there is even in-store wine sampling! There are also a number of small artisan stores and inviting cafés, access to a public pool and climbing centre, as well as a local playground and football pitch for the kids. Harlech Castle, a World Heritage Site with a neighbouring park and the award-winning Royal St. David's Golf Club for those who wish to put their talents to the test on the greens, are also close by. The lively harbour town of Porthmadog rests nearby, offering scenic journeys through the picture-perfect landscapes aboard the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways, whilst the Italianate architecture of Portmeriron is must-see. Be sure to lace up your walking boots and embark on an adventure through Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, where thrill seekers can tackle the climb to the summit of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), the tallest mountain in Wales, or delve below the surface with an afternoon spent amongst the caves at Bounce Below. With so much to see and do, Stoneycroft is an excellent base for a retreat to Wales.

The charming village of Harlech sits on the coast and in the mountains of North Wales, and is home to a spectacular 13th-century castle. The Royal St. Davids golf course and the beautiful beach of Harlech make it a popular destination for outdoor adventurers. The town has a wide range of amenities, including a large supermarket and a number of excellent restaurants. Snowdonia National Park and Cardigan Bay's stunning beaches are excellent places to take in nature's splendour.

    A view from every window, nothing better then relaxing in the garden looking at the view and watching the sun sets. Everything very clean and well maintained. Jeff was very helpful. Would certainly look at staying here again. Loved it!!!

  • Osher

    The property was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Tremendous effort has been put into decorating it to such a high standard. The owner went above and beyond his call of duty to accommodate all our needs to ensure the most magnificent and comfortable stay! He even had a fan delivered when the weather turned very hot. We are so grateful and highly recommend!
