The cottage was nice and cosy on the cooler mornings and evenings. It is well equipped and has everything you could need. We have stayed here many times and are never disappointed.

"We had a very nice weeks stay in Bwthyn Bach and were able to enjoy the wonderful local area and beaches."
It’s a nicely set up barn conversion, with good parking, everything you need available in the kitchen (quality items to use too), a comfy bedroom and nice smart toilet/shower area. We found the living room was on the chilly side for the first few days and perhaps should have made contact about that but it did improve considerably. We appreciated access to the washing and drying facilities as we were travelling for a few weeks. The rubbish collection area was getting very full and it was tricky to find where to add our recycling. We’d certainly book again.

"We had a lovely holiday in Wales."
The cottage was gorgeous - and really comfortable for two people. The area is perfect for a holiday in north Wales. We did something nice every day. The beach is superb and the hiking trails amazing.
It would have been nice to have the ironing table and iron in the cottage rather than the shared utility facility.
Also the directions to the cottage were incorrect. We needed to phone the owner of the cottage to get the correct directions.
I would very much recommend this cottage if you are a couple and looking for a lovely holiday in north Wales.

"We've just had our second stay at this cottage Bwythn Bach and it was as as the first tim we stayed 18 months ago."
Such a great location for visiting the surrounding areas although as we had the weather most of our time was on the beach and doggy walks. This is a prime location for all adults children and our best friends, dogs. Hoping to book again for next June ( half term as I 'm a teaching assistant).
The only thing I would say is a blind is needed on the long window in the bedroom...a great stay yet again, thankyou!

"The cottage on the whole was quite attractive and had most things that where necessary."
The layout of the lounge /kitchen was masterclass. The bathroom although having everything available was very cramped. The bedroom was admirably furnished apart from ,on opening the wardrobe door a knob came off in my hand. On the Wednesday evening the lights fused ( bathroom, bedroom, and hallway, and were fixed the following day.
One other thing of note. There were no ironing facilities in the cottage ( directions to elsewhere on site). I don’t think that this is appropriate.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay and found our cottage Bwthyn Bach comfortable. With regard to the lack of an iron/ironing board, it is stated in the Guest Folder that there is a washing machine, tumble drier and iron/ironing board in the external utility room which is close to the cottage. We do hope you visit again and if you require any extra's to make your stay more comfortable please contact us ahead of arrival. Thanks Again. Property Owner

"The building was accessible with good parking."
The location was quiet and shop and pool facility at Sunnysands were adequate. With the weather being extremely good it may be good when you need to replace Windows to have a small window that can be left open at night certainly in the bedroom. Granted there was an expelaire fan but they are so noisy . One of the top places we have stayed, we hope to book for next year.

Some people have commented about the caravan park next door but you don’t notice it and had no impact on our stay. Cottage in great location 5 minute walk to a lovely beach where you can walk for miles. Local pub, restaurant, pizza and chip shop nearby. Rail station 2 minute walk away and some lovely journeys nearby by train. Cottage had everything we needed and very well maintained. We are already looking forward to returning.

"This property is not a Luxery Cottage."
Day one: Note left to say extractor fan not working in on suit bathroom, part ordered they would be in to fix it in the week still waiting, extractor fan on 24/7.
Day two; Shower running on very hot or very cold
Day three; shower as day two, tried to cook a meal on Sunday oven broke down after ten minutes of putting it on fused the place
Day four; phoned Mrs Williams, said she would get a plumber to fix shower, and her Husband to look at Oven, she text us later that day to say they had ordered a new Oven and it
Would be delivered next day.
Day five; Oven arrived and was fixed that late afternoon.
We could not use the freezer in the fridge as it was so frozen you couldn’t get anything in it.
We would apriciate it if you would take use of your mailing list as this is the send place we have had problems with this year.
The extractor had been ordered from the Wholesalers who are 50 miles away, at the end of July. The order was chased up due to it not having been delivered within a week but once we received it, it was duly fitted, which happened to be on the day you departed. You state that on your second day (Sunday) the hot and cold water in the shower was erratic and the cooker did not work.On the Monday morning, a plumber arrived at approx 11.45am to rectify the temperature problem and a new oven was ordered from a local retailer who had to order one in. This was delivered at 12.00 and fitted later in the afternoon just as soon as we could get a maintenance man across to you. At no point did you mention the freezer compartment, if you had we would have had the Housekeeper pop by and sort it for you. It is unfortunate that you suffered problems of these kind on your holiday, problems which could arise even in your own home quite unexpectedly and we felt we dealt with them promptly. No further communication was heard from you so I took it that you were happy and content. We are sorry that you felt otherwise.

"Sykes Cottages have excellent coverage of the UK."
We could hardly believe our luck when we saw this barn conversion right near where we stayed at Caerlwan caravans over 20 years ago with our children. Everything was familiar and brought back memories. The weather was superb. Tal-y-bont is a great central location for very many scenic wonders, and Barmouth has always been a favourite spot. The accommodation was excellent, very private, but not remote. Nicely decorated and kitted out, and we could take our dog, what more could you want?

"Bwythyn Bach is very cosy, comfortable and clean."
Nice to come back to after a long day out. A couple of minor problems were quickly dealt with.
Regarding the location, like another reviewer, I think the description should mention that there are some large caravan parks very nearby. We did not realise that the cottages were surrounded bycaravan parks. As we stayed out of season this was not a problem for us but I can imagine it would be very busy and noisy in high season.

"It would have been useful to have been made aware that the cottage was more or less surrounded by caravan sites!"
