  • "Had a lovely couple of days at Min y Mor."

    Great views from outside seating area. Couple of inches off the hedge would have made veiw even better. If you were staying more than a couple of days a bigger fridge would be great. That aside great little relaxing retreat.

  • "We found the holiday property to be just as described."

    We met Sally who was very obliging. We were concerned in case our dog's barking annoyed anyone, however, the property is detached and although other cottages are close by, ours was quite private. Lovely river walk and would have loved to follow the coastal path but we didn't this time as the weather was so very hot - perhaps next time! Particularly enjoyed the view of the sea and I enjoyed sitting on the raised patio reading. Very handy forl visiting local towns without having to travel too far.

  • "Fabulous uninterrupted sea views from cottage - moonlight sparkling on the sea absolutely magical."

    Access to beach from cottage via public pathway. Clean cosy cottage which had everything my dog and I needed. (Photos don’t do it justice). Nicely tucked away behind Ty Newydd Writing Centre (the last home of Prime Minister David Lloyd George). Hosts friendly and welcoming.Would happily stay at Min Y Mor again.

  • "Maybe better heating in the main room for cold nights, but that is really the only thing I could think."

    Everything else was perfect for week away.

    Thank you for your comments and we are glad you had a great stay. We are also happy to advise that a wood burner will be added to the property later this year. Property Owner

  • "We enjoyed our stay and everything was fine, but dated."

    Having said that, we believe the property has very recently changed ownership and we hope that an updating of the facilities is on the agenda in the near future. We would stay there again as the scenery is stunning and the surrounding area beautiful. It was a good base especially with the dog.

    We would like to advise that the kitchen area has now been refurbished and we will be adding a wood burning stove in the near future. We are thrilled you enjoyed the scenery and that your dog also enjoyed their stay. Property Owner

  • "Clean cottage."

    Very basic interior for the price we paid but it was bank holiday weekend so maybe this was reflected in the price. Lovely area and great walks for the dog. Needs a blind on window inbetween bedroom and kitchen as people from other cottages walked passed back of house to garden. Views from cottage are great and picnic bench outside was fabulous to have a drink in the evening at and look at the views

    Thank you for your comments and upgrades are planned such as kitchen refurbishment and addition of a wood burning stove next year and a blind has now also been added. We are pleased you enjoyed the views and liked the picnic bench.We are thrilled the dog enjoyed it too. Property Owner

  • "Lovely location, great view, handy for village amenities, museum and local walks including a beach and river."

    Very good for couple with a dog. We had a great time here! The price was very reasonable, however there's evidence of damp in the property and double glazing had a bit of condensation. Hot water to kitchen was a dribble, although bathroom was fine. The bedroom would really, really benefit from blackout blinds/curtains, we ended up putting towels over them...

    Thank you for your feedback. We apologise regarding that condensation, thank you for letting us know -we have discovered that a window pane in the stone property needed replacing and this has now been done. The housekeeper will also open windows fully on changeovers to keep the property at its best for our valued guests. The bedroom does have blackout blinds, we are sorry if some slight light made it through the sides of the blind on an extremely sunny day. We are thrilled that you loved the location, views and amenities and enjoyed yourselves Property Owner

    Clean, warm and lots of hot water. Good wifi and mobile signal. Kitchen equipment basic but adequate. I didn't meet the owners but had a friendly and helpful correspondence by text. Phone signal and mobile connection intermittent in the surrounding area - don't rely on Google Maps!

  • "Two things, The directions to Min y Mor need to state that it is part of Tynewydd and Tynewydd which is on the gate is on the way in."

    Then note that you need to follow the hewk round to the left until you reach the end. And secondly you can note that there is parking for Min y Mor which is opposite the cottage. We got back one night and there were 4 vehicles parked in our parking space and one of those in front of the door! Apart from that quite a pleasant place
