Sisial-y-Mor

We have used these lovely cottages numerous times over the last 4 years and can only say since Lyon’s have taken over they are declining.

Split and ripped bed clothes, quilt did not fit double bed, lumps of hair behind tv unit and despite advertising WiFi it was next to useless which meant that you could not watch freeview tv. Despite being reported twice nothing was done and this was also the case back in march when my sister visited, so not a one off occurrence. They have changed the furniture and the sofa due to L shaped design only sits 3 comfortably. This is all a shame as they are lovely cottages being let down by neglect and would not rate them any higher than 3 stars.

We had a lovely stay at Sisial-y-Mor.

The cottage was warm, comfy and clean and had everything we needed. We visited Llanfair Slate Caverns, climbed Snowdon, went to Zip World Blaenau Ffestiniog, the beach and Betws-y-Coed. Would definitely return. Thank you.

Great venue and location.

Very quiet and plenty of places to go in the area. However, The swimming pool is NOT at the cottage and it is on a booking system only. Beware I booked because if the pool and we nearly didn't get to go as it was full.(Not half term time) You only get 45mins in the pool. The flat is uncomfortably hot, we had to sit with the door open as there were signs everywhere saying don't touch the heating. The dishwasher smells, I don't think it had been cleaned for a while. There was a hoover but no brush for sweeping the tiled floors. General maintenance needed, the curtain pole in the bedroom falls off the wall (I did try to reportit), some utensils dirty and damaged, shower seal dirty and broken, bathroom window catch broken. Kettle leaks when you are pouring So.. a good place for a short break but I think it would benefit from a deep clean, maintenance and a top up of cleaning products etc.. Didn't find a washing machine

Like the central location, however the new settees are so uncomfortable, we ended up sitting on the dinning chairs ,the settee is is not built for purpose and will only sit 3 persons , so if there are 4 at the cottage you cannot sit together , there are no coffee tables, so if you do sit on the sofa , you cannot but a coffee cup or wine down , you have to sit holiday g your drink, which is not practical, as previously they had two sofa with a table.

the cottage was not clean , I emailed the owner with the pictures , and the view is now spoilt with what I can only describe as a dumping ground for old caravans ( static) the trucks and vans are in and out all day and are very noisy, so spoils sitting outside and the view . They ask for you to leave the cottage clean, however there are no cleaning products to do so?, however these cottage’s are in need of a professional “deep” clean.

Lovely little @ Sisial y Mor stay beach is less than 10 mins walk, would highly recommend for exploring North Wales

Very comfortable and quiet.

Nice and warm, we found everything easy to use. Very comfy bed too. I imagine it would be quiet busy around the site in school hols and summer, so would avoid for this reason. This is ideal for an out of high season break, which we prefer. A very dog friendly area, with always some beach access. You get a later sun set on the West coast too. Excellent for holiday with dogs, and walking, easy to keep clean with the hard floor and under floor heating, which is so cosy.

Love this property , 4th visit now and I’ve already booked for next year!

The kettle was broke and this was handled quickly and replaced the same day , very professional. The cleaning cupboard requires a new mop and bucket , and some cleaner to place in the bucket so the cottage can be mopped on departure. The only thing for me is the check-in / check-out time I think 16:00pm on day of arrival is far to late as time you unpack and settle , it’s bed time so the first night is wasted really , and 10:00am is early most places are around 11:30am , this would give more time to have breakfast and clean cottage before departing ( the lady next door also mentioned this to me aswell) Many thanks for a fabulous stay , great loacation , great space , close to amenities Thanks again Zoë

Lovely Cottage in convenient location for train station to take you around visiting area.

We didn't use the car at all. Bed very comfortable, shower lovely and powerful, couldn't fault it Just needs a battery in the clock on the wall lol

Second time here loved it, asked twice about no shelf on fridge door so no where to put bottles, noone came to look at it and door needs adjusting, had to keep checking it was shut, hoover was not sucking , needed new bag as it was full, new bag was delivered promotly but still not any suction after new bag, also lamp in small bedroom was broken, I reported this too.

Very comfortable cottage and spacious

Authentic stone barn conversion with thick walls stayed cool in the heat.

Well appointed with spacious interior and large external patio with sea views. Quiet despite the nearby campsite which provided facilities like a restaurant and supermarket and access to a clean wide sandy beach. Well located for walkers (we used Kttiwake Barmouth and Harlech books) with some outstanding scenery (the view on the Panorama walk from the bench is hard to beat). Harlech Castle is also well worth a visit)

We had a lovely few days stay in the cottage on our travels from Ireland.

Spotlessly clean, and had all the facilities we required.

Great property, really enjoyed our stay and probably the most comfortable bed we have slept in.

We enjoyed our stay every thing was fine .

Excellent quality very pleased with the hole beds are superb lovely spacious rooms with everything you need.

Second visit to this little gem this time of year and wasn’t disappointed.

Hope to visit same time next year. Great facilities, clean and comfy beds/sofas. Wi-Fi was good for those that need it. Kitchen is very well equipped. Cottage is well positioned to get out and about. If you know the surrounding area, there is a lot to see and explore. Great family holiday, thanks for helping us in making memories for our two little lads.

Cottage was fantastic, well laid out, fantastic size rooms, luxury bedding & towels, beds we're very comfy, kitchen was very well equipped, bread milk & butter were a nice touch plus teabags sugar coffee, cleaning stuff, teatowels they had thought of everything, have already booked for next year, Barmouth has been my happy place for the last 30 years as a static caravan owner, would definately reccommend

We had a wonderful stay in the cottage having chosen it because friends stayed in the one next door the previous year.

Its in a fabulous location, just a short stroll to the beach. The cottage itself has been renovated to a high standard and is very well equipped in the kitchen. The bathroom is a tad on the small side but the shower over the bath is excellent; extremely powerful. The beds were very comfortable. Our only gripe was the size of the TV for the size of the room and for such a high end property I would have expected a larger one. After a long day it was nice to snuggle down on the sofas and one very wet day where we stayed in all day but we had to keep pausing the TV to go and take a closer look at things which got irritating.

A very nice property in a great location close to the beach and other amenities, very clean and comfortable.

Well recommended for a holiday break.

Another great stay at these cottages.

Thank you. See you again soon !

We love coming here every year!

It really is our happy place - a home from home.

We had a lovely holiday despite the weather not being so great.

The location is beautiful amazing beaches. The cottage we stayed in was gorgeous on arrival there was complimentary items in the fridge, lovely fluffy white towels left in the rooms. The cottage was immaculate I definitely will be booking the cottage again.

Really great break in a lovely cottage.

We couldn’t have asked for more! Stylish, contemporary living space in the heart of the Welsh coastline. Kitchen is very week equipped. Beds are really comfy, living room set up was perfect for a family. The bathroom and shower pressure was great. We have been coming to the area for the last 30 years and must have walked past the location of the cottage hundreds of times before. We have no complaints at all and would love to visit again in the future.

Fantastic cottage in a great location.

Everything you could possibly need in the cottage. Clean and welcoming. Well equipped in the kitchen. In walking distance of lovely big beach (ideal with dogs), nice pub up the road and a good butchers and shops within walking distance. Ideal to get into Barmouth. Would definately stay again and recommend.

This cottage is a 5 star holiday home !

So much attention to detail that made our Christmas stay perfect ! Will be back next year hopefully!

A great stay even for October.

Would definitely come back. Only very very minor issue for me was the lighting outside that we were unable to turn off but the Owner quickly offered to rectify in a few days…

Fabulous cottage, lots of welcome goodies,pity the weather was so bad.

Fantastic location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Only thing I would prefer is an enclosed garden for the dogs but they were very well behaved when outside.

The only downside was the sie of the fridge, with very small freezer compartment.

This was very small for 4 people self catering.

A great cottage, very comfortable with all equipment needed and close to the beach.

We had a great time and will be back.

This is the 3rd time we've stayed at one of these cottages and we love the place.

We've never left any negative feedback but we think there are 3 points worth mentioning this time. You need the kitchen window open if you're cooking and its extremely difficult to do so, it's difficult to access and very stiff. The skylight in the lounge is noisy when its windy and it does get windy there believe me! These are minor details and very quick fix if the owner decides to rectify them. The last issue is not so easily rectified. There is a guard dog onsite and it must hold the world record for barking. The other guests onsite raised this with the owner while we were there and it has been mentioned in the guest book. None of the above will deter us from visiting again however our next trip will be to somewhere near Tenby next March and we're looking already! The cottages are brilliant and with a few tweaks will be even better.

We had a wonderful week at Sisial-y-Mor with our two dogs.

There are so many beautiful places to visit. The beaches are stunning, and there are so many walks to choose from. We found two spectacular waterfalls and a drive-on beach (black rock beach). The facilities at Sisial-y-Mor are perfect, everything you need and the beds are extraordinarily comfortable. Clearly a lot of consideration has gone into the decor and it is finished with quality and taste. Booking through Sykes Cottages was super easy and hassle-free. Thank you.

had a fantastic stay.

a lovely cottage in a brilliant location with easy access to the beach, restaurants and take aways. the dogs absolutely loved it. we would definitely recommend this to family and friends.

Had such a brilliant time there, was quiet and peaceful, with a lovely view.

Will definitely be returning in the future! Thank you for the lovely accommodation, just what I expected and more!

Travelling with a pet made a pleasure instead of a chore.

We will definitely be back

Great place to stay, milk,bread,eggs etc on arrival, nice touch Cottage was clean, bigger inside than you think and everything Needed for a great break in a lovely location, would book again.

As in the words of my 3 year old daughter 'best holiday house ever'.

We really enjoyed our stay in such a comfortable and cosy cottage, which fit all our needs. Thanks so much for allowing us to stay xx

Lovely cottage, well equipped with nice touch on arrival with treats for us and our pooch!

Well located in walking distance to beach, shop and restaurants.

This cottage was spectacular.

Absolutely beautiful. Everything we needed to enjoy our self catering holiday was provided. Thank you so much to Mrs Williams for making everything so easy for us. We will be booking again as we have stayed at various accommodations in and around Barmouth and this cottage was far and away the best we have stayed in. Loved it.

Very good.

We have 3 small dogs, it is important for us to consider where we go and what we stay in and because of this we have stayed in similar properties across the UK but this is by far the best location and best property to date.

On arrival the property was easy to find and in a great location for local rural and beach walks. The property layout itself, all on one level, the cleanliness and the welcome pack exceeded our expectations and from the first moment we arrived we knew we were in for a great time. We did many days out to beautiful towns, beaches and historical sites and was able to unwind in the Sisial-y-mor cottage. Sarah the owner was great, friendly and very helpful. If you are looking to spend a holiday away from home with your dogs, walking distance from the beach, close to all amenities we many lovely places to stay, this has got to be one at the top of your list. From the moment we made contact with Sykes cottages, explained that we had found a property we liked and had 3 small dogs, they did the rest and made it work and because, the dogs, my girlfriend and I enjoyed it so much we are considering a return holiday to this property later in the year.

Cottage was excellent and had everything we needed.

Location is great for beaches and mountains. Pool was great too.

A very clean, cosy and well equipped cottage, had everything we needed, a nice relaxing week with plenty of walks from the door.

I've stopped at this cottage many times before and on this occasion was a touch disappointed.

..windows and doors drafty...heater in bathroom didn't work..notified them 1st day which was Saturday...was fixed Wednesday..TV is far too small for size of the room..

A very comfortable place to stay and perfect with the dog.

Yet another perfect holiday booked through Sykes’, highly recommended to all.

Lovely cottage, really well equipped and beds very comfy.

Utility room with washer and dryer was very useful with two small children. Quiet and peaceful, yes there are caravan parks around but none that are right outside the cottage and we didn’t experience any noise from them. Great location to explore North Wales. Beaches were beautiful. Only thing to mention is the cottage could do with a deep clean especially as dogs are allowed i.e cleaning under sofas. Wouldn’t hesitate to return and recommend to others.

The beach was brilliant, the restaurants near by was great.

Plenty of places to visit and the kids had a great time too. Would definitely visit again.

Feel misled about it’s location.

It is right in the middle of a load of campsites so we were surrounded by people outside every night u TIL at least 10pm - not the tranquil idyll we believed we were getting.

Beautiful cottage in what was once a beautiful setting, but is now caravan hell.

Lovely comfy, warm beds and bedding. Well equipped , clean kitchen. Comfy sofa seating. TV too small for the room. We had to move the sofas closer. Underfloor heating not adequate when it's cold, although other heating was offered when l enquired. The worst thing was the boiler, which roared so so noisily and never switched off that l had to decamp from the master to the twin room to get any sleep. My husband slept thru it as he is hearing impaired.
