"We had a wonderful stay in Aberdaron."
The accommodation at One Dfor was warm, clean, and welcoming, with a lovely ensuite bedroom and parking included. It’s in a perfect spot — just a short walk to the beach and the centre of town.
The smell of the local bakery is enough to draw you in on its own, and the delicious selection inside doesn’t disappoint. For eating out, we loved Tŷ Newydd Hotel, which is set right on the beach. It’s a friendly and relaxed place with a lounge and bar that welcomes dogs, and the food is amazing. The staff couldn’t have been nicer. There’s also a great fish and chip shop nearby — just keep in mind they’re closed on Tuesday, Thursday and possibly Sunday.
Our accommodation had everything we needed: really comfortable beds and pillows, a cosy log burner, parking, and even an accessible ground floor room that was perfect for our elderly mum. Our dachshund loved it too! You can check it out here: https://www.aberdaronbandb.co.uk/
The hill down into town is quite steep, but you can easily drive and park in the local car park. The owners also offer use of a shared tramper, which is brilliant for anyone who needs a bit of extra help getting around.
The local coastal walks are stunning, and the beach is dog friendly — perfect for a morning stroll. There’s even a mobile sauna overlooking the sea, which costs around £15 for 50 minutes.
We honestly couldn’t recommend this place enough. It’s cosy, convenient, and full of charm — the perfect spot for a relaxing break.

"A very comfy well equipped holiday home."
The only problem we had was that although the beds were very comfortable the height of the mattress made it hard for my husband to get in, he does have mobility issues caused by PD, luckily we had bought a small step which solved the problem. Floor to top of mattress is approximately 30 inches, which might cause a problem for short or mobility restricted people staying there, Otherwise it was perfect and I would recommend it to any of my friends wishing to walk in the area.

"Lovely stay at One Dolfor with an exceptionally responsive owner."
Beds and linen were wonderfully comfortable and the kitchen very well equipped.
Some areas could improve: the lounge is small for the number of guests and the sofas are tired; clearer signage for the designated parking spaces would help. A welcome folder, a décor refresh, and fuel for the fire would also be great additions.
Overall, a comfortable, well-stocked cottage we’d recommend for its great beds and helpful host.

"Brilliant equipped house."
We went to celebrate my 80th birthday with my 3 children and their spouses. Top quality furnishing, beds and kitchen equipment. The only improvement I would recommend is extending the patio area into the rear garden and making some patio area in the front garden to catch the morning sun and give a view of the sea. But highly recommended anyway. Thanks

"The house itself is very nice and comftable ."
Plenty of hot water and bedrooms and kitchen (once cooker figured out) were great. I would suggest you take your own soap and if there are 8 of you e xra toilet rolls.The absence of a welcome pack explaining how things work etc was disappointing and we felt the outside was misrepresented.It was stated that there was parking for 4 cars but the parking area was shared with the house at the back.We were 4 single people and had 3 cars as did the other people so there were 6 cars which made it awkward especially as the workmen next door had a right of way across.
The garden was not enclosed for anyone thinking of taking a dog.
The main area of concern was the lack of any information on re cycling I.e on dividing It up and which bin to put it in.On checking the large green bins outside it showed all waste just dumped there including food which certainly went against the grain!
Thank you for your comments, there is definitely 4 spaces available for vehicles for this property, apologies if how other cars had parked made it difficult to navigate a space for all vehicles. We do not mention that the garden is enclosed so that guests are aware that it is not, before they make their booking. We have noted your feedback about the bins, thank you. We are glad you found the property comfy and hot water plentiful.

"We loved One Dolfor, it was bright, airy, warm and spotless."
Sadly the builders moved in next door and the noise was awful. I contacted Peter and he knew nothing about the building work and kindly let us move into his other property for the rest of our stay which was equally warm and comfortable. My thanks go to Dawn the housekeeper who managed to get us into the second property so quickly and that was a massive task! We had a really lovely week in a lovely part of the world.

"We (two of us) have just had a lovely holiday staying in One Dolfor."
We spent the week walking the coast path from Nefyn to Aberdaron which was absolutely stunning. We highly recommend using the flexi bus. They were brilliant and never let us down. They met us in car parks (near the coast path) and drove us to where we wanted to start walking from and then we walked back to our car. One Dolfor was immaculate. A little disappointed no goody bag was left - no tea bags/coffee/sugar/milk either. This is a first and we stay in a lot of holiday lets. The bed was extremely comfy and the shower was fantastic. Lovely well equipped kitchen. Agree with previous reviews re the lounge which could be better. It was fine for two people, however, you would definitely not get 8 people seated in there. The sofa's were very hard and uncomfortable and need replacing. Also the TV was too small and too high with wires hanging down. The lounge would look much nicer without the white desk in the corner. The house is in a lovely peaceful setting just 8 minutes walk up the hill from the lovely village. We only had one car so parking was fine. Good choice to eat in or take away chippy/cafe's/pub/hotel restaurant and good spar shop. Please don't let the negative comment on the lounge put you off renting One Dolfor as the bedrooms/bathrooms and kitchen were all perfect and as there are tv's in all bedrooms people could spread out. We will keep eye on the property and if the lounge is improved we would definitely return as we were extremely happy with everything else at One Dolfor

"This is a lovely cottage where four of us stayed for a long weekend."
It was wet and windy outside as you would expect in November in Wales and it was lovely to return to warm cottage and a log fire. The bedrooms were excellent as was the kitchen dining area where we could cook and talk. (Re a previous comment - There is a microwave in the dual oven) We agree the lounge would be small for eight adults. There is plenty to see and do locally even this time of year and the leaflets in the cottage were helpful. We were lucky to meet the owner who was very helpful showing us round but all the pre visit instructions would have got us sorted. Thank you One Dolfor.

"Aberdaron is a lovely village in a beautiful area of Wales."
The cottage was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The bedrooms and kitchen/diner are much bigger than the photos suggest. The lounge is a little on the small size for eight, but the weather was so nice we only went in there for some shade and to cool down. Thank you for letting us share your property. It was the perfect remedy for our daughters and families, and us, after the stress of COVID!

"A wonderful dormer bungalow with all mod-cons in the charming village of Aberdaron."
The beds are really comfortable and the en-suites spotless.
The kitchen has modern appliances and is a very pleasant place to enjoy your meals. We were a little surprised to find there was no microwave but we managed OK with the ovens and hob. There is a steep hill down into the village and ticketed parking in the National Trust car park (if you cannot find an empty space elsewhere). Good selection of places to eat and have a drink. Some spectacular views looking down over the bay and good walks.
Would definitely go/stay there again.

"Dolfor was fresh, clean and comfortable, with a lovely view and nice amenities."
A couple of things...the tumble dryer was out of service (it is in the listing as available to use), and the owner had lovely gardens and had just planted lots of pots but only had a watering can available-a hose would have been less time consuming. I realise we weren’t obligated to water, but felt the flowers and plants would’ve died as there was no rain. Recycling was cryptic, as there were 5 categories for separation, yet only 3 bins. Labels would’ve helped. A few unbreakable glasses would’ve been nice for alfresco dining. Minor issues that in no significant way detracted from the property or enjoyment of our stay.

"We loved our stay at 1 Dolfor."
The standard of equipment and furnishings was excellent. It was especially good for a senior member of our family who loved the adapted shower and wetroom. We liked the outside patio area and we're able to have a barbeque as the weather was great. With sea views, it was the most comfortable place we have ever stayed in as a family.
