"Ty'n y Clawdd is a beautiful cottage surrounded by stunning countryside."
The hot tub is perfect to relax in after a day out walking, the lounge is comfortable especially with the wood burning stove. The garden was great for playing games and exercising our 2 springers and it is a bonus that it is split into 3 separate areas. The kitchen has everything you need. We had an issue with the wood burner which was rectified by the owner very quickly. The flue had become blocked, at some point, by a bird. This was quite clearly outside of the owner's control however the installer arrived to clear the problem without any inconvenience to ourselves. We had a great stay here and would happily recommend to others.

"Great location, wonderful accommodation with ample room for 3 adults and 3 small dogs."
Beautiful large garden area with various areas to go and sit down in. Literally a 10 minute drive to seaside village of Barmouth with shops and a great fish and chop shop, The Mermaid. Lovely beaches nearby to walk the dogs and get some fresh sea air. The accommodation had everything you needed, with a well stocked kitchen with plenty of kitchen essentials, e.g. plates, pans, cutlery etc. The lounge and dining areas were clean and comfortable with a smart TV, log burner, comfy sofas and a large dining table. My only feedback on where improvements could be made to make our stay perfect would be to invest in some new bedding for all the three bedrooms. The bedding seems old and dated, although clean, e.g. duvets, duvet covers. The pillows in all the bedrooms could do with replacing as all of them were very thin and flat, at home I normally sleep with two pillows, I had to use five due to how thin they were. The same with the cushions in the lounge area, four cushions however, they were all flat as pancakes. Overall, lovely accommodation, great location and would stay again, but would bring my own pillows from home to ensure a good nights sleep.

"Lovely Cottage, great location."
Hot Tub wonderful. Will definitely be back
-
"The cottage is really lovely - well equipped and clean with a beautiful secure garden great for dogs ."
The hot tub was also greatly appreciated by our teenagers . Close to some amazing beaches and surrounded by beautiful countryside. There are shops and pubs a few minutes away too . Unfortunately the 4 nights we were there were significantly impacted by the broadband being down for the entire stay .
Thanks for the feedback, we are so glad you enjoyed all the area has to offer, it’s a great location. As you point out the broadband did fail in the last storm and it took openreach until Friday to resolve as the issue was at the exchange, I hope the o2 mobile broadband we provided helped provide some connectivity during your stay.

"Lovely cottage close to all amenities could not fault"

"Everything was great."
Only minor issue was the bed mattress was a bit stiff for my liking and pillows were thin.
-
"Excellent location and garden was superb for the dogs."
No toilet paper on arrival but other than that would recommend.
-
"Lovely accommodation with easy access to lots of beautiful walks and the beach, I would definitely recommend to others and happily come back."
If I have anything negative to say was that previous occupants didn’t pick up after there dogs and we found multiple (at least 7 ) poops
-
"Nice cottage and well equipped and great for dogs, however after a long season of dogs staying it’s now time for a deep clean."
But all in all a nice place.

"Arriving Saturday first night in the double bed I got up covered in bites."
Got InTouch with Sykes who got someone round to check the mattress he didnt find anything but came the next day to spray .Skyes surgessted that some thing had come through the bedroom window which is not true because we couldn't have the windows open the traffic noise was bad didn't have a nice stay at all .
Thank you for your feedback, we did send a professional straight across to investigate the mattress in question, and he found no signs of any issues with the mattress, we requested it be sprayed just as an extra precaution, and as we discussed with you at the time all the mattresses were practically brand new and had only been bought two or three weeks previously. No similar issues have ever been reported at the house either prior to your arrival or following your stay. We hope to be able to welcome you back to North Wales soon. Property Owner

"The cleanliness of the property wasn’t great, a lot of cobwebs in different parts of the house - particularly upstairs."
Certain areas were also dusty, again upstairs. The areas downstairs and high usage areas were fine - so probably just needs a deep clean. Couldn’t charge EV through the 3 pin plug, this wasn’t referenced in the listing.
Thank you for your feedback, we have asked the cleaning company do a full review and address the issues highlighted. We have also ordered a new bed and mattress for the master bedroom, following feedback on comfort levels, this will arrived 21 August. We are sorry about the lack of EV charge facilities we are on the waiting list for a outdoor charger which we hope will be fitted in the autumn, as we recognise how important this is. Property Owner

"The cottage itself and grounds are fantastic and in a great location."
We had a good stay. The garden and hot tub were well maintained. However, general cleanliness was lacking. Under the single beds and red sofa bed were filthy. Cobwebs in corners. Also the master bed was so uncomfortable and my partner and I struggled to sleep most nights. We would return to the cottage and soon if these issues were addressed. We loved meeting and chatting with neighbour, Albert in the morning.
Thanks for the feedback, I’ve asked our housekeeping company to urgently address your concerns. We are glad you enjoyed the cottage and meeting Albert who is a lovely person. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

"Brilliant property - very comfortable house and lovely secure garden which our little dog loved."
Great parking and access to amenities, walks and beach. We will definitely book again.
-
"The cottage was superb, very charming and well equipped."
The large garden is perfect for dogs and children, very secure too! The hot tub was amazing loved it overall I’ll definitely go again. Only slight niggle was the master bed wasn’t that comfortable but I realise there’s no bed like your own bed is there. So wouldn’t stop me going again. Great cottage and location
-
"House was very homely and it really felt very cosy, definitely a home away from home."
Perfectly situated close to the beach and shops, it had everything that we needed for a relaxing week away with our dogs. Hot tub was amazing in a secluded area of the garden. We would definitely stay here again.

"Very enjoyable stay in a nice location."
An ideal base for visiting Barmouth and Harlech. Great secure grounds and plenty of space for the dogs. The hot tub is of good quality and provides for a relaxing hour to rest weary legs. Internally, the cottage is spacious and feels satisfactorily finished (simple but not too simple). It has to be said that the bed was not particularly comfortable however, fine for a few nights but could definitely be improved. Road noise was noticeable, particularly in the lounge, and surprisingly busy for the relatively rural location. Perhaps improved doors and windows to the front could make a significant difference. Just to add I’m not talking town centre levels of busy so don’t be put off by that. Overall, nice cottage for an enjoyable break that is appropriately priced.

"Very beautiful, road was very busy and noisy though."
Lovely location. Did find a lot of cob webs in the cottage
-
"We had a lovely relaxing week."
The property has everything you could possibly need. The new kitchen (which had just been fitted before our stay) is very well equipped. As mentioned in a previous review the road at the front of the property is busy but the garden to the rear of the property more than makes up for this, it is a wonderful space and very secure for dogs The hot tub was wonderful to relax in after our long walks on the beach. We would highly recommend staying here and will definitely be returning

Harlech 5 miles; Barmouth 5 miles.
The pleasant village of Dyffryn Ardudwy quietly nestles between The Rhinogs, part of the Snowdonia Mountains, and the stunning golden beaches of the North Wales coastline.

The surrounding area has an exciting array of wildlife and birds including soaring buzzards. The small town of Harlech is just 4 miles away, dominated by its majestic 13th century castle which is a World Heritage Site, and the most impressive of all the castles built in North Wales by Edward I. Popular with golfers due to its famous Royal St. David's course, Harlech also boasts an excellent variety of amenities including some good quality restaurants. Nearby Barmouth offers an amazing Panorama Walk with breathtaking views and also a harbour from which you can enjoy a ferry to Fairbourne for a ride on the miniature railway or a boat trip out to sea to try mackerel fishing.
