• "Such a beautiful cottage perfectly equipped with everything we could possibly want, and so much more."

  We thoroughly enjoyed the generous welcome pack and the enclosed garden was perfect for our dog. The location was ideal to explore the beaches and Snowdonia and the Cambrian train line stops at the village. A week was not long enough so we will definitely be back.

• "Superb! Everything about this cottage was fabulous."

  Exceptionally clean, warm and comfortable. Good size rooms. Lovely spacious feel. This was just the break we needed. The owners had thought of everything and gone the extra mile with regards to the small but very generous things like foil, cling film, washing up liquid etc - basic needs but make such a difference. Thank you The warm dog wash was a brilliant idea! We loved sitting in the garden (even in November!) watching the squirrels and woodpeckers. Would definitely recommend and return if visiting the area. Thank you for a fabulous stay! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

• "We completely agree with the previous glowing reviews of Tyn Ffynnon."

  It really is an exceptional property and certainly deserves its five star rating. The house has been renovated to a very high quality finish and is a credit to the owner’s obvious hard work and vision. No detail has been ignored. An absolute stroke of genius is the outside warm water dog shower which was a lifesaver on a couple of occasions! We had fabulous week staying here especially as the weather improved considerably for us. This enabled us to get out and about to explore this beautiful part of Wales. It has everything from stunning beaches, mountains, ancient woodlands, waterfalls, heritage steam railways and historic buildings in abundance. We enjoyed visiting many of these but barely scratched the surface. You would need a lifetime! Tyn Ffynnon is the perfect base to do it. Richard the owner checked in with us on arrival to ensure we had everything we needed. The welcome pack was extremely generous and included traditional Welsh produce which left us wanting more. On the subject of food, we can highly recommend the London House Stores/Butcher a few metres away. Excellent award winning sausages and salt marsh Welsh lamb are available here. Also the Food Emporium in Harlech has an amazing and unusual selection of cheeses. For a meal out we can recommend The Victoria Inn in Llanbedr only a few minutes drive away. Dog friendly. We would not hesitate to recommend Tyn Ffynnon as a place to stay and hope to return sometime. Thank you for the privilege of letting us experience it for a week.

• "A beautiful property."

  Renovated so tastefully with lots of thought put into the finishing touches too. Very clean, comfortable and well cared for. In a quiet location but within easy reach of beaches and the Snowdonia National Park. Would highly recommend. The driveway in is a little daunting at first but you do get used to it.

• "Lovely spacious house, with plenty of room for 6 adults, beautifully furnished with well thought out details in all rooms."

  Kitchen well equipped for those that prefer/need to cook whilst away. Garden large and well enclosed keeping pets safe. Thoughtful welcome gifts for both adults and pets alike. Charlie and Chantelle have put a lot of thought into making the holiday experience easier and a home from home including spare toilet rolls, washing up liquid, foil, wraps, soap all things you normally have to remember or go and buy. The dogs are not forgotten either with dog tags with their holiday home details and an outside warm tap to clean them up after a splendid run on the beach. House well located for visits with Barmouth and Harlech about 10/15 mins away and a beach within walking distance through the village. Would recommend to all.

  We didn't want for anything and our dog was very happy in the garden. Usually a poor sleeper, I slept like a log. Wish I could bottle its essence!

• "What a beautiful holiday home - we found it hard to leave."

  It's a gorgeous, spacious, well equipped property - with a great kitchen. Really comfy beds and sofas. The main bedroom and en-suite bathroom is fabulous. Property is down a little drive off the road through the village and is quiet and private. 30 minutes walk to the lovely beach; 10 minutes walk to railway station (destinations include Harlech; Porthmadog and Barmouth); 1 minute walk to bus stops (same destinations as trains) and handy little Spar and butcher 2 minutes walk away. I'm sure we'll all return. Thank you.

  This house has retained its feeling of quality since our previous stay 12 months earlier. The owners are doing an incredible job keeping the house spotless. The garden is still very pet friendly and the house has easy access to some lovely beach walks. Highly recommended and we will probably go back again next year as it delivers everything we look for in a holiday rental.

  The most comfortable and cleanest we have ever stayed in by a country mile! We especially appreciated the homely touches, the comfortable furnishings and the thought that had gone into ensuring it was equipped with everything you could possibly need. There was even a warm dog wash, which we used every day after sandy or dusty walks. So much easier to use than the bowl of water we have to make do with at home. I want one!

• "The cottage itself was beyond excellent."

  Every possible comfort and convenience was provided. Without doubt the best-appointed cottage we have ever stayed in. Our only issue was with the very narrow and difficult driveway. We both had quite large cars - as families going on holiday often do - and although there was a hint in the FINAL instructions to approach the driveway from one particular direction, we all felt that it would have been helpful in the INITIAL spec to have given some indication of this issue - perhaps even give an actual width measurement. We genuinely felt that if we had had our previous car, a BMW X5, we would not have been able to gain access at all. Our current X3 had millimetres to spare and getting in and out of the driveway was quite a hair-raising experience.

  The owners have done an amazing job restoring the house using quality furniture and fittings throughout and creating a superb holiday home.

• "We had a lovely break in the cottage."

  It is a beautiful cottage with a large rear garden which is excellent for dogs as well as people. The area is good for walking and for restaurants/pubs. Nearest beach is a 30 minute stroll and the nearest pub at Tal y Bont is 5 minutes in the car or 30 minutes walk in dry weather. Richard and Chantal really look after the property and nothing is too much trouble. On their recommendation we had an excellent birthday meal at The Castle Cottage in Harlech - not cheap, but really good food with superb friendly service, so well worth it to us.
