Bwthyn at Brynhyfryd

Our 4th stay .

we love the property and had a good holiday even though it rained.thank you david. Carole and Phil.

We had a lovely week , comfy beds, good linen, everything spotless, lovely private garden ,Mr Evan’s was very helpful and knowledgeable and pleasant.

Definitely would like to go back for another visit. Great views from the bedroom balcony

We've just had a lovely stay at Bwthyn, considering how close it is to the town centre you don't feel that as it's so peaceful but you have all the amenities close at hand.

The owner David honoured us with a tour of his home which is beautiful and you have the use of his lovely gardens. This is a home from home place and one we will definitely book again.

We have been 3 times to this property so that should show what we think of it.

Location is perfect .Property has every thing you need.

The owner is very welcoming and a font of local knowledge.

The cottage itself is very clean and secure with a stunning garden which is well maintained. The cottage is well situated - a short walk from the town centre and two supermarkets. Highly recommended.

Very cosey comfortable cottage with lovely garden

We had a wonderful stay in this property.

Plenty of room, considering it was three adults. The updated shower was a lovely find. Beautiful garden, and the view from the windows and the bedroom balcony was stunning. Close enough to walk to the town centre, especially if you use the back gate

Lovely comfortable cottage, with beautiful garden and dedicated parking space.

Great to hear the history of the house from Mr Evans, the houseowner (he could write a book about his life!) I especially loved my morning chats with the sheep in the field next door

We had a lovely comfortable stay.

David was very welcoming and very knowledgable about the property & surrounding area. We especially enjoyed the beautiful gardens & sitting on the balcony late afternoon.

The cottage is in a great location to explore the Llyn Peninsula and North Wales.

The host, David, was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and it's history. We really enjoyed our week there.

This was a cottage in a lovely setting, we especially liked the fact the garden was large and for our own use.

The kitchen had everything you could need and the balcony as a lovely spot for a cup of tea! It was very convenient for the town centre, within a 10 minute walk and very near an ASDA, It was in a good position to easily travel to many places on the coast such as Cricieth, Abersoch and Nefyn. We would certainly stay again.

Had a great time and brilliant weather.

Property very spacious, comfortable and clean. Well equipped, good Wifi service. The owner is very welcoming and hospitable, showing us round the main house later in the week and telling its interesting history . The gardens were beautiful.

Comfortable and well equivalent cottage with lovely garden to walk around.

Better directions would help. It is on the right before the BP garage, entrance between two stone pillars

In the cottage description, you mention 3 steps to the front of the house.

There is no mention of the 6 steps and stone path from the parking area to the house. A disabled person would need to alight from the car at the main entrance and then negotiate the gravel path to the house. We were very happy with the accommodation. The owner, David, was very pleasant and helpful.

The gateway to the property is very narrow and access might be difficult for a very large SUV type vehicle.

There are four steps to be negotiated to gain access to the cottage. It would be helpful if these details were included in the property description. The cottage is spacious and the central heating keeps the property nicely warm. Kitchen pots and pans, utensils, crockery and cutlery are quite adequate for a family of four. The lounge is well provided with seating but none of it particularly comfortable. The owner, Mr Evans, did say he planned to replace items for the new season. The double bed was comfortable and well provided with bedding. The shower in the bathroom is excellent and the heated towel rail is good but is the only heat source. There are good views over Pwllheli from the rear windows and a large area of lawn at the front between the cottage and the main road. We did not experience any undue road noise during our stay. Mr Evans was very friendly and helpful and gave us an insight into the history of the large house in the grounds of which the cottage stands. All in all we would thoroughly recommend Bwthyn as a good base for exploring the area.

This was such a lovely cottage, close to all amenities and with lovely views though every window.

We had everything we needed in terms of comfort and equipment and felt that, had we needed any form of assistance, either David or Madeleine would have responded speedily. We would love to revisit and have already recommended it to family.

An excellent location for our holiday on the Llyn peninsula.

Cottage very clean and comfortable and nice to be able to walk to the facilities in Pwhelli. David, the owner made us feel most welcome and would certainly go back.

The lodge was an eclectic mix of country gardens, continental marina views and an antique charm.

Our children loved searching for Gruffalo’s within the secluded walls, tasting fruit from the trees and walking barefoot on the fluffiest grass. A gem of a stay in a fabulous location, a wonderful host and a magical resonance of our youth. We will return as we always do year on year to Pwllheli but we will most certainly be gracing the lodge with our presence again.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage.

The grounds are stunning and immaculate and the owner David is a lovely gentleman who was very welcoming and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is in a perfect location. We have recommended to friends and family and we will most certainly book again.

A nice quiet location with great views over the harbour.

The apartment is surrounded by a beautiful garden and is clean and has all the facilities needed.

There is a problem with the shower not draining properly, we discussed this with the owner who was going to get someone in to rectify the problem.

I put comfort down a bit as the double bed isn't big enough for a big lad like me 6ft 4ins

The accommodation was clean and comfortable and provided everything that we needed for our self catering break.

The owner made us feel most welcome and the information that he provided was very useful. Even the blossom trees in the garden were at their very best when we arrived and it was a pleasure to sit out and enjoy them when the Welsh weather permitted. We would recommend and would return.

Really enjoyed our stay.

Cottage was warm and comfortable. Owner and host, David, friendly, welcoming and helpful.

The cottage was comfortable and had an old-fashioned charm, with beautiful gardens and a view of the harbour from our bedroom balcony.

The owner was very helpful and some of his suggestions enhanced our stay, including for local places to eat out and for scenic coastal walks. It was our first visit to the Lleyn Peninsula and it won’t be our last, with memorable walks and birdwatching.

This was our third stay here we have loved it, but property needs upgrading, kitchen, crockery, beds, towels, carpet.

WiFi was intermittent but on day we left check out was at 10am but at 9.45 owner and cleaner came in without knocking. Without masks and cleaner went into room and started cleaning when we were just doing our final checks to make sure we had not left anything and moving last bags out. We asked if we could have an extra 5 minutes and were told no as she is here now! Was a poor end to the holiday and made us feel rushed and unwelcome.

This is a lovely cottage that is like a home from home.

There is an exit through the garden that is an easy route to the town.

Y Bwthyn was lovely.

The cottage suited us very well and was within easy reach of the beaches and shops. The gardens of Brynhyfryd are beautiful and our host was charming and very helpful.

The host was very welcoming and helpful

Ideal for walking into Pwhelli - 5 minutes walk to Asda , 10 minutes into town.

Great central location for visiting the amazing beaches on the Llyn, Cricceth, Portmerion. David was a great host, checking everything was ok. He offered full access to his gardens and we enjoyed a game of croquet on the lawn although there was a large private garden with the cottage..

Bwthyn is set in lovely surroundings and is located in a wonderful position for Snowdonia and the Llyn peninsula.

The cottage is spacious, very comfortable, well equipped (cooking facilities brilliant) and it’s fabulous to be able to regulate the central heating especially after a cold and wet tramp in the countryside. David provided a lot of information and was very helpful if needed. We really enjoyed our stay.

Very nice place in a lovely setting, looking out over the town and beyond the bay.

We would definitely go back to this accommodation if we were in that area again

the property is excellent value for money, spacious ,roomy and met all our needs.

is ideally situated to travel arround north wales.heating and shower were easy to use and couldnt fault the property.would happily rebook if we were to visit area again.much more to the town than we expected.highly recommend the property

Lovely location, comfortable and cosy accommodation, great touring base for North wales.

Great location in a lovely part of the world.

Lovely setting, perfect family spot with games in the garden.

Lovely cottage well equipped and when we had a problem with electric kettle it was replaced straight away

Perfect position.

Clean and comfortable.

clean tidy great location

Most of it was very good.

Warm, comfortable, well equipped. Sofa bed very good as then the 2 of us had a bed each. Living room TV did not work, fortunately there was another in the bedroom. We could not get the electric oven to work The gas hob was fine.

excellent throughout ideal location

Beautiful cottage, perfect for two lovely location.

Friendly owner and spotless accommodation

The cottage was spotlessly clean and there was even a cake to welcome us!

The weather was exceptionally cold and the cottage felt cold even though the heating was on. But eventually it did warm up and we were nice and cosy. Just one problem. We took some DVDs with us but couldn't get the DVD player to play. I tried to call the owner on several occasions for advice but there was no answer. This does need to be addressed

Clean, nicely laid out cottage in quiet location.

Lots of character and well equipped. Close to lovely beach and some nice pubs nearby. Great for e piloting local area

When we arrived the cottage, it wasn't ready for us.

The cleaner hadn't turned up so it wasn't presentable, a rather messy apartment, no fresh clean linen on the bed, no clean towels, dirty linen in the bath. I contacted the owner and he kindly gave us directions to another house not too far away for the night and he resolved the problem first thing the following morning. We had the option if we wanted to stay in the house or go back to the previous cottage, which we decided would be better for us. We didn't want to stay in the house with stairs as it wasn't convienent with a crawling baby and wouldn't be very relaxing without a babygate. It was a disappointing start to out holiday after travelling with a poorly baby for hours and all went wanted to do was settle in for the night and unpack. However, the owner was very apologetic and resolved the issues as soon as he could which we were grateful for. Once settled we enjoyed our break away.

We spent a wonderful, cosy Christmas in this lovely, comfortable and clean cottage very close to the beach and centre of Criccieth.

Just perfect!

there a several small things that need attention.

ie cooker hood was greasy. mattresses need replacing, protectors not very good.. only one toilet roll for 4 people for a week

Stunning location, really high spec and we absolutely loved it.

We had an issue with the log burner on our last night but logged this in the Maintenon book

Warm, comfortable and close to all amenities.

Although we didn’t used the garden and patio area it looked lovely. Excellent hosts to speak to. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.

The cottage is in a lovely location, beautifully furnished, well equipped and clean.

We really enjoyed our stay there.

Better than previous apartment where the bathroom was quite restricted and bedroom was tight too.

This cottage a definite improvement. Would book this one again. Kitchen was good. 2 cupboards were full of glasses, too many really unless a large party was taking place. Therefore room for dry goods was restricted. But we managed to put most of glasses in one cupboard. Space in the fridge was wanting too, badly designed in the first place. Cooking facilities good, although we went out for most main meals.

Lovely cosy cottage everything you need is there.

My children love it

Fantastic location, walking distance to Porthmadog and lovely walks around.

The only criticism I have is that the master bedroom bed is rather uncomfortable. A lot of good facilities in the cottage.

Cottage was great, clean, comfortable and a great location.

Only a few tiny issues - a few things had almost run out - hand soap, washing up liquid, loo roll. Could also do with a few blankets in the lounge as it was pretty chilly in the evenings. Would def recommend though and would also stay again if we were in the area. Thanks

Lovely comfortable peaceful cottage.

Please look at heating downstairs...rather chilly.

5 star cottage!

! Relaxing and stunning

Lovely Cottage in a perfect location near to the beach, cafe, pub and Chinese restaurant and takeaway.

The cottage was everythng we expected.

Olde Worlde with modern appliances. Ideally situated for local shops, beach, eateries and bus stop.

The owners of this cottage are pros.

The cottage has a great bathroom and kitchen, living room and bedroom are just what you need. Well furnished and everything you could need is there for you. Nice welcome pack. We will definitely be going again.

It was perfect for what we wanted.

local to shops pubs and restaurants

Comfy, quiet and well equipped

Faultless and wonderful to deal with

Lovely cottage, needs to be made more homely and comfortable inside though.

Spacious,well equipped,modern fittings,welcome pack.

Very conveniently placed for town and local walks,used car very little. Downside - outlook from property onto internal car park with neighbouring property car only view from window! Seemed to be a walkway to harbour past property even though it was a private access.Minor details-no waste paper baskets,wi fi sporadic,heating controls a bit random!

Lovely place in a good position near harbour but could be cleaner

Poor mattress, shocking TV (not even remote control), and really uncomfortable cheap sofas.

Otherwise cottage was good, and clean.

Lovely cottage on the edge of th village.

Spotlessly clean, great facilities and much bigger on the inside! Comfy bed and nice warm shower after I long day walking. Fantastic welcome hamper. Had a brilliant stay.

Wonderful weeks holiday in excellent accommodation.

Clean, well equipped and peaceful. The host was so friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Some great walks from the door. Would return.

The cottage was lovely and very modern but I felt that the cleanliness was not up to scratch.

The floors were dusty and didnt look as if they hadn’t been cleaned. Fridge hadn’t been cleaned as we found bits of food in it. This I know is being very picky but just feel that this should have been looked at before we came. Little attention to detail like, maybe a few games to play and provision of a DVD player if the weather is bad, as reception when it’s windy allows you to only watch BBC. I appreciate this is a new property and is still a project in motion so I think in a few months this will be top notch but I couldn’t give it top marks I’m afraid.

Lovely and clean.

Comfy bed.

Good price for a cottage in high season

Wonderful accommodation, welcoming hosts.

Spotlessly clean cottage with everything you could need. The welcome hamper was a lovely treat. Hubby loved the Bara Brith.

Beautiful cottage perfect location with everything we needed.

Clean and tidy with guide s for everything from the house, appliances and the local area.

Lovely cosy and clean cottage, fantastic views from the garden definitely will be booking again .

The cottage was perfect for a lovely quiet holiday with plenty of nice walks.

The owner peta was so nice and her little touches made the cottage so homely.

Would have been excellent if everything worked without problem

Housekeeper hadn't left enough towels and parts of house not cleaned properly and not all beds made up.

A real shame as the cottage is lovely and well equipped

Clean, well stocked, lovely cottage

Very well equipped and fully functional.

The views from the private cottage garden are just superb

Nice comfy well equipped house.

Good themed seaside decoration. In a lovely village

the furniture has not changed in 10 years most uncomfortable settee i have ever sat on,curtains same as when we arrived 10 years ago same crockery ,and the washing machine is an enigma

Comfatable little bungalow with everything you need could do with a good clean I'm sorry to say

The cottage was beautiful.

It had every thing we needed. The beds were the most comfortable I have slept in. The furnishings were lovely. The sofas were also very comfortable, easy to spot the good quality. The garden was very nice and safe for our dog. The location was perfect if you want peace and quiet. There was a pub and a,couple of nice Hotels which all welcomed dogs in the bar and gardens, about 1.7 miles down the road. The beach was within easy reach. We did not walk owing to the hot weather and having to try our best to keep the dog out of the sun. Had the temperature been cooler then I am sure we would have walked down each morning. Great location foe exploring the area.

Beautifully updated and furnished and a fabulous location.

A couple of small things could be done to make it even better e.g.. provision of a hairdryer, a bench or seating in back garden and a blind in the bathroom window. The picnic table in the front garden is lovely but too big for the space it's in

Good stay in central location.

Apartment was well furnished. The reason we cannot give the apartment a higher score is that is was not properly cleaned. We've stayed in quite a few apartments before, but never in such a dirty one. Floors in kitchen and bathroom were definitely not mopped (cleaned with water and detergent). Other parts of the house could have done with a proper clean as well. We also considered the amount of towels provided to guests (2 per person) too few. We missed an instruction for the key box. There are many instructions in the apartment but not for the key box. How to reset if you type in the wrong code for example.

Comfortable and cosy with amazing panoramic sea views.

Very friendly and helpful owners and dog friendly too.

Simply the best cottage ( apartment) that I've yet found in Wales.

Well organised and thought out, with everything I needed and nothing I didn't.

Beautiful cottage in good location clean with nice garden

The accomodation was ideal.

What a gem, so clean and comfortable would definetly like to return, a real treasure.

Views were wonderful, it was so peaceful.

Clean comfortable cottage with useful welcome pack.

Only issue was saucepans so badly worn as to be virtually unuseable

Lovely, modern, spacious, comfortable cottage, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean.

The friendly, welcoming owners live next door so on hand for anything you might need. The welcome pack with milk, bread, butter, sugar, tea, coffee and homemade fruit cake was much appreciated. The cottage is on a main road but most of the traffic was farm vehicles and really didn't bother us. The A55 is just up the road so access is good to all the major attractions. I would highly recommend this cottage as a very comfortable base to explore Anglesey.

The cottage was very nice and in a pleasant location It was not very suitable for anyone with disability no hand rail on stairs and no hold on in the shower

Stunning cottage immaculately decorated and presented in a truly peaceful area overlooking the sea.

Havent slept so well in years. Every window to the front has a sea view safe parking for the car and a beautiful garden to the rear. Faultless.

Very clean and well equipped.

Garden was beautiful and well kept. The welcome tray was a very nice touch. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star was that I felt the saucepans needed replacing.

A high spec cottage in an excellent location.

Well equipped, comfortable, spacious

Beautifully presented cottage.

Everything you need in a small property. Well presented and friendly owner.

Lovely cottage accommodation was excellent and very clean.

Lovely extra was welcome pack which included a bottle of Proseco tea coffee milk and some shortbread. Staff on site were all friendly and helpful. Very peaceful.

Cottage was beautiful fitted out loved the seaside theme.

Did how ever have a problem with the shower needs the hot water control sorting. In fact I think the shower is down right dangerous.

Immaculately clean and comfortable.

Great location. Fantastic views. Would go again.

Lovely, cosy, well-equipped cottage, in a great spot, with fantastic views across fields to the sea.

For the price the cottage was very basic and rather small.

Sehr gute Abwicklung und Information bei Buchung.

..

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful place

The cottage was lovely and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and sofas, and nice bathrooms.

It was lacking a clothes line or airer which was a pain for drying beach gear and our waterproofs which we did not want to put in the tumble drier. There were no clocks anywhere except on the oven. An internal bin/box for putting recyclables in would have been helpful, as we had to pop outside every time we wanted to put something in the recycling. The cottage was lacking in tourist information and local walking maps/direction, although we did appreciate the OS map.

Clean, comfortable and quaint, in the middle of town with a delightful garden.

Supplied with everything needed for our short stay, wonderful people just couldnt ask for more, will certainly return.

We enjoyed our time at the cottage.

The owner was very friendly and helpful and gave us plenty of tips on where to eat etc. It was as described on line . Our only niggle was that we found it to be a bit chilly downstairs on some days even though there was an electric fire.

Good location, clean and fresh

Homely cottage with friendly owner.

Clean, warm and cosy in the fantastic base of Criccieth. Mountains, seaside - take your pick and great places to eat - cafe 46 for homemade cakes is a must as is the castle chippy! Bedroom a little small but didn't bother us too much and although no designated parking not a problem to find a space nearby.

Could not fault it in any way.

Clean and well presented.

Relaxing, home comforts, home from home.

Have been visiting for 20 years!

It was beautiful.

Very clean. Well equipped. Will book again

Lovely cottage.

Had a great time exploring the surrounding area too.

A beautiful cottage set in a quiet back road fully equipped with everything you need for a totally relaxed break

Fantastic cottage, spotlessly clean.

Great location and lovely views.

Spacious and well appointed cottage.

Bedroom and bathroom were lovely. Good location for exploring the area. I understand the owner intends to install a log burner and it will be absolutely perfect for a winter break.

Beautiful cottage furnished to an high standard.

Comfortable and in easy reach of local amenities. Would definitely return to this cottage. I had a lovely relaxing time. My Grandson loved walking around the cottage as he toddles about.

Warm, comfortable and stylish.

Well equipped and perfectly placed...

Felt at home and comfortable as soon as we arrived.

Everything we needed was there. A wonderful cottage in a wonderful place.

Lovely cottage with very good facilities.

Lovely walk down to Harlech beach

Ardderchog, diolch yn fawr

Welcoming warm and cosy cottage

It was lovely.

Well equipped and comfortable.

Beautifully refurbished, clean, cosy and stylish.

Lovely to go somewhere that's equally as nice as where you live. Great views too, despite the rain! The basket of logs could have been bigger but it was nice to see dishwasher tabs, bin liners, cleaning materials, loo roll etc had been provided. A very enjoyably stay.

Good and clean.

Nice central location.

Lovely owner who was extremely helpful.

The setting is peaceful and calm. My only niggle was the tv was very small ( I do understand that that is just our opinion) otherwise perfect.

Lovely clean and welcoming cottage in super location.

Good spot for the harbour, steam trains, shops and restaurants. Comfortable beds and good kitchen and seating area. Only comment would be that a small dishwasher would make the holiday let perfect.

The property was of a good standard and clean, but was let down by omissions on the inter-rental servicing.

There was no washing up liquid, no oven glove, an empty hand wash bottle had been left on the basin, there was insufficient toilet paper, and the freezer compartment of the fridge was so iced up, its door could not close which in turn was preventing the main fridge door from shutting.

Lovely snug cottage very welcoming owner, weather not so good

Super cottage - very comfortable and well equipped with a good atmosphere.

The private garden was a real bonus. Perfectly placed in Criccieth, and exploring further afield was very easy. Would not hesitate in recommending this cottage, although it is worth mentioning the low beams in both bedrooms. As it turned out this was not a problem for us, but if you're on the tall side it could be!

The cottage lacked a lot of things to be functioning as self catering.

The underfloor heating was not working, no matches provided for the fireplace, 2 logs for 5 night staying guests, no handbook. The living room window was stuck ajar, bathroom window not frosted nor had curtain, no wardrobe in the master bedroom, no coat hangers downstairs, bedsides useless as the lamps were too big. The cottage did have nice sea view and near to the beach but the owner did not pay much care for the house itself nor for her paying guests. The rate is not cheap, hence didn't meet the standard. If these aforementioned issues are fixed, the house could be nice, but be aware of the appalling customer service if something goes wrong.

Excellent standard of equipment and furnishing

there were a few minor improvements needed.
