“Lovely little cottage with room for a family of 5 and plenty of garden space.”

Tywyn is a 5 minute drive and has all the local amenities you’d need such as Coop and Spar, coffee shops, churches, outdoor leisure complex (crazy golf, putting green, table tennis, quoits etc) and a sand/stones beach. There is a ruined castle that can be explored about 15 minute drive left out of the cottage and the national park is on your doorstep. The cottage is snug but we had enough room for mum and dad and three boys sleeping in the 2nd bedroom. There is a big garden with a swing and ...

Tywyn is a 5 minute drive and has all the local amenities you’d need such as Coop and Spar, coffee shops, churches, outdoor leisure complex (crazy golf, putting green, table tennis, quoits etc) and a sand/stones beach. There is a ruined castle that can be explored about 15 minute drive left out of the cottage and the national park is on your doorstep. The cottage is snug but we had enough room for mum and dad and three boys sleeping in the 2nd bedroom. There is a big garden with a swing and summer house. We felt this cottage was really good value for money.

“Really lovely cottage with adequate facilities for a family of 5.”

The conservatory and garden was a great extra space. We felt it was great value for money and would definitely go back. If we were being really picky the beds were a little uncomfortable and the shower quite weak. But we all had a great time. The cottage was clean and well looked after. It would have been good to have some more information about local faciltites and what to do about the recycling as the only notice on the kitchen wall was a bit vague and we couldn’t find anything to put the recyling in.

“I feel you should point out that the stairs are vey steep in the cottage and also slippy.”

If they were carpeted it would have been easier.

“A lovely area for a peaceful break.”

The cottage is fairly comfortable, warm and cosy and spacious for 3. The garden is an added bonus with plenty of space too. The village is situated a few miles from the coast and there are many scenic walks in the area.

“We had a brilliant week.”

Hoping to rebook for next February. Very cosy cottage with helpful neighbours/ caretakers in a peaceful location. One small detail - more recycling bins needed.

“Nice cottage - shame about poor dog”

Cottage was very clean and comfortable and in a good location. Well equipped. Plenty of room. Peaceful setting. However, we were upset that a dog was chained up almost 24/7 in the next door neighbour's garden. Whilst we were there he was given little attention and no exercise. He clearly wanted affection and wimpered when he saw us in the garden. Although the owner assured us that the dog was being cared for we were not convinced and have reported this to the RSPCA.

“Great little cottage in a scenic valley”

We had stayed in a Sykes Cottages propoerty previously, in Scotland, and were disappointed, but had no complaints about Minffordd. The setting, in a picturesque valley with Craig yr Aderyn on one side and Cadair Idris on the other, was perfect, The cottage is a well-renovated old end-of-terrace with lots of character, and good facilities. There is on-site parking for a single small car, and pets are allowed, and can wander around the garden (finding a sheep in the garden was a surprise one morning, though - hopefully the hole in the back fence is now fixed!) The local caretakers of the property were quick to respond when we reported a couple of problems, and the next door neighbours were very friendly too.As an added bonus, look out for the jam and cake stall a hundred metres down the road. The lack of a mobile phone signal or any data network at all was the only real disadvantage. Providing a little more information for new visitors is our only other improvement suggestion: it would be good if Sykes' compiled a standard list of things that renters like to know, and then each cottage could have its own version of this completed, courtesy of the caretakers, and left as a welcome for new renters. So, in summary, we would highly recommend this cottage.
