  • "Really enjoyed our week in Cefn Bryn Bach."

    We managed to pick the hotest week ever, but the cottage was well ventilated and cool. It had all the amenities we needed and was spotlessly clean. Owner was so lovely and helpful. Situated in the centre of bustling Criccieth but in a private position where sitting out is a pleasure. Would definitely recommend Thank You.

  • "Great central location, easy access to shops and beach BUT music on the Saturday night from the pub extremely loud until 11:30, The accommodation is on the doorstep of the pub!"

    Accommodation very sparsely fitted out, not even a teapot! To make the morning cup or a corkscrew to enjoy a glass of wine! Needs to be made more homely, with more home comforts! Fantastic place to stay with dogs as you have your own fully enclosed garden. All in all a good central location, if staying you must eat at Dylan’s

  • "Just returned home after spending a week here with our two dogs and already we are looking at booking again for next year."

    The property is a lovely conversion and very spacious, the king size bed is super comfortable and the owners have made sure you have everything you need to make your stay a home from home. The owners actually live opposite the property and having spoke to the chap a few times, we found him very approachable and informative ( a genuine nice bloke). The area is well located and as everything you need close by (shops, restaurants, pubs) to make your stay a pleasant stay. Previous reviews mention the railway close to the property but this never bothered us as it only seems to be two carriage train so not as noisy as a locomotive with trailers Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone wanting to visit this area of Wales.

  • "A spacious barn conversion with everything that you need for a holiday stay."

    Although it’s situated behind a pub and in front of a station car park you wouldn’t know most of the time. A warning about when the beer delivery lorry was coming and would block the courtyard entrance would have helped as we had a timed ticket for 10.15 am for the Ffestiniog Railway but the delivery crew were polite and all was well in the end. We would have appreciated a teapot and the sofas were a little deep for my back. The parking provision was very good and the location in Criccieth was very good for exploring the area. Near to the beach, Criccieth Castle a Spar Shop/Petrol Station and plenty of small independent shops. Great little place for an enjoyable stay.

  • "We had a lovely weeks stay at Cefn Bryn Bach, a great location in a beautiful part of North Wales."

    The cottage was clean, modern quiet and comfortable with only a few minutes walk to all the local amenities. It was our first visit to Criccieth and we weren’t disappointed absolutely stunning coastline and pretty little town. The only tiny issue for us was we would have liked a few more kitchen bits and bobs eg a grater,scales and a bigger pan for cooking for a family but otherwise faultless. We would definitely rebook.

  • "Loved it! Surprisingly quiet as it was sandwiched between High Street and railway line."

    The dogs loved the garden and I felt they were safe. I was a little concerned about booking a cottage in a small complex but it turned out to be absolutely fine. Ample parking though the entrance under the archway was a little tight for a large car!! I personally found the sofa a little low but managed by sitting on a cushion. We would certainly return there. Thoroughly recommended.

  • "We stayed at this lodge for a week and it was really lovely."

    It is in a great location, clean and very spacious. Just a couple of recommendations - the lock was a bit tricky to master, think this needs to be looked at, cleaning cloths were not provided so we had to buy some and only 1 bin bag was provided which isn’t enough if you are there for a week. The lodge has a small garden area which would benefit from a washing line so you can hang your wet clothes out when being at the beach. There was a small airer but it kept blowing over outside which is why a washing line would be best (with pegs). Other than that we highly recommend this lodge and the owner was very nice and helpful too, he replied promptly to any questions we had

    Thanks for the great review and suggestions, door lock has been changed this week, clothes line in garden is planned for the spring. Property Owner

    No need to use car if you don’t wish to. Cottage right off high street, 5 mins if that from train station and less than 10 mins to beach at a slow pace! No issues with pub being so close, yes live music on the Saturday night but that why wouldn’t there be it’s a pub!! Nice touch of pot of welcome tea, sugar and milk along with a pack of Welsh cakes. Also cleaning materials available. Well equipped kitchen had all we needed. Cottage was warm and if needed heating soon had us warmed up from a cold walk and didn’t need to be on long and heat was held. Only thing we all commented on was that TV was small for space but that’s a personal preference!! Thank you so much for a lovely place to stay. Both my husband and I and my parents really enjoyed our stay here. So did our dog!!

  • "Thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

    The location is ideal for those who want to enjoy Criccieth without having to use the car - as we did. The small garden area was ideal for our Spaniel who then got longer walks along the beaches - although there are some restrictions at certain times of the year. We tend to cook for ourselves and there was everythig that we required without having to use the microwave. There's a TV and WiFi should you need it. The property does back on to a car park and beyond that there is a, not very busy, railway line. Neither of these caused us any problems during our weeks stay. Would have no concern about booking another week away at this property - indeed, once we have looked at our calendar, that's exactly what we will do.

    Provided everything we required and ideal base to view the area. Good access to the town and the local beaches. However would have to say some of the facilities were basic. Surprised to find things such as toilet/kitchen rolls not provided and that there were no air fresheners in the rooms. Moreover there were no cleaning items so just as well we brought some of our own. Invariably previous guests have left items/condiments etc but there was nothing provided. Minor issues but does create an unfavourable impression.

Ideal for our dogs as fully fenced in. There was no welcome pack so be aware you need to take milk tea and sugar and the basics ie salt pepper, if you arrive after the shops close. In all a great week.

Sofas are very solid so we sat on a pillow to make them more comfortable, We would have given 5 stars ⭐️ if these little points were addressed. We would be happy to return.

    The sofas were rock hard I had to use my bedroom pillow to get a little comfort . The main door is dodgy to lock but once you have the knack it’s pretty simple . My main problem was the cleanliness, on arrival I had to wash all the cutlery , crockery and glasses , coffee stained cups , and the glasses were dirty , there is no dishwasher so they should be using fairy liquid , and the windows need cleaning . These are minor problems which are so easy to rectify , people shouldn’t be put off . Criccieth is a beautiful town and I’m sure I will return.

    Kitchen minimally kitted out for 4 people, no decent sized pans had to buy one. The bed in double room is listed as a king size which I always look for as myself and husband are quite tall. Bed frame is king size but the dreadful well past its best mattress is a double sat in the frame!!! Garden untidy, which didn’t matter too much to us due to time of year and not sitting out but could do with some tlc. This cottage could be so much better with a few little touches and attention to detail i.e shelf/cabinet in bathroom, loo roll holder, new mattresses, broken hook on bedroom door replacing, few more pots & utensils in kitchen & a decent clean between guests. I wouldn’t currently list this as 4 tick rating, but it could easily be. All this said we had a nice week, location for visiting wales is brilliant and the village is lovely, just don’t expect a warm welcome in the pub.... unless u speak welsh.

    Bed sheets were bobbly and rough. Towels smelt as though they hadn't been properly laundered. No cabinet, shelf or storage for toiletries in bathroom.

Cottage is in a pub car park next to the town's public carpark and a railway line, so there's noise. The good - clean, spacious and open plan living area. Powerful, hot shower and separate bath.

  • "The barn conversion is lovely but it is so minimalist it’s as if the owners couldn’t be bothered."

    I echo many of the negative comments found in other reviews and I would urge others to read them fully before booking this property. Firstly the noise. I knew the property was at the back of a pub and fully expected the noise associated with a beer garden. What we didn’t anticipate was music so loud we couldn’t hear the television or ourselves speak. There was a live band on Saturday night, and I understand this is a weekly event throughout the summer. Even our daughter complained she couldn’t listen to her own music through her earphones. On Sunday there was a disco that started at 4.00pm and went on until 10.30pm. Again, it was so loud, we could clearly recognise all the songs over the volume of the television. I did note during the week that the listing for the property was updated to reflect the live music but it still does not impress just how loud it is. Secondly, the private court yard is essentially a car park / building site. There is another property being converted opposite this which means there are builders there most days. On the one day it was sunny enough to sit outside (Sunday), the builders were working and the noise forced us inside. It should also be mentioned that the property is side on to the town car park where coaches park so you have them running their engines and reversing frequently. Other issues have been mentioned in other reviews: The sofa is past its best, there is no dishwasher (and there is plenty of room in the kitchen, there was one cupboard that just contained a high chair), there is a minimum amount of crockery etc, the mattress on the double bed is atrocious and there is no storage in the bathroom. The mattress was so soft that my husband and I felt like we would roll out the bed every time we turned on our sides. That said, we both slept well during the week. There wasn’t even a saucepan big enough to cook spaghetti for two people without breaking it (the spaghetti) in half. There were other little niggles too such as there only being one bedside lamp in both bedrooms, and in the twin room, this not even being next to the beds. There was one tall mirror in the double room but not anywhere practical so that I could do my hair etc. Also, the blind in the twin room and the hook on the back of the double room door were broken. It was really difficult to dry clothes. There was no washing line due to the building works and the airier didn’t cut it. The washing machine was loud. It’s a shame a small utility room wasn’t incorporated in the conversion. Like other people have said, the door was a pain to lock. It did require brute force. I have to say that I don’t think I have ever written such a poor review of somewhere. The property was clean, although the hoover had not been emptied. It was warm and on the whole comfortable. It was really good having parking and it was conveniently placed for shops and food outlets. We did have a really good holiday in terms of everything we did but after the first two nights, we were always on tenterhooks regarding possible noise. We didn’t have over the top expectations of the accommodation as we deliberately went for somewhere cheaper but it was still £750 and I don’t think it was worth the money.

  • "The accommodation was nice and roomy, it was a good place to stay but there are issues with an uncomfortable mattress and minor things like cracks in all of the drinking glasses."

    We also found pieces of broken glass next to our bed on the floor. The big problem for us was the extremely high levels of music coming from the pub next to us. I have never experienced anything like it before and feel it should be highlighted more to potential customers especially for families with young children like ourselves. We had four nights of uncomfortable loud music that went on until midnight. On the first night I wanted to pack up and leave and on the last Friday night it was awful. We visited so many nice places and enjoyed North Wales but these issues darkened our holiday really and meant that we where tired in the mornings from lack of sleep. We had to witness men urinating against cars out of our kitchen window on the car park also. The barn is great and spacious with all that you need really but we felt that we couldn't leave our windows open for air as it didn't feel safe due to the location next to the car park. If I spend £800 on a weeks accommodation I don't expect to have these issues.
