"The property was bright , clean and welcoming ."
We had to cut our stay short due to a family problem back home .
We ring a number given to us on email to put a baby gate up at the top of the stairs and he came over straight away . Please be aware that the accommodation has an open stairway so if u have a puppy like us or a toddler you will need the stairgate in place . The hot-tub was lovely , sitting there watching the peacocks and goats was so relaxing . Please be aware if you have small dogs or a small puppy there are some areas where they can escape the garden , luckily we brought a playpen for our puppy.
The beds were lovely and comfy and found the kitchen well stocked with all you will need for your stay . We really hope to back . Thank you for letting us stay here .
Only down side for us was having no lock on bathroom door .
Lovely place , very welcoming clean and comfortable .
Hi Lesley & puppy,
Love the review, glad we sorted the baby gate, that will stay there now for everyone.
We will fit a lock to the bathroom.
If you book again we will do a one night for free due to you having to leave early.
Best wishes for our lovely dedicated team.

"Gatekeepers cottage was a perfect holiday base for us."
Lots to do and explore. The goats and peacocks added an extra something to the beautiful views.
Everything in the property was lovely, good hot shower, comfy beds, warm living area. Great hot tub. Ev charging a nice bonus.
Only comments would be the kitchen lacked a few basic items- no grill tray, no ovenproof dishes, not all pans worked on the induction hob. Had to buy a potato masher, bread knife and cafetière..which we left for future visitors.
Hi Richard,
Really appreciate your great review.
Sorry you had to get a few items, I will ask the maintenance team to purchase items.
Hope to see you again, we are doing our best to achieve returning guests, it is happening.

"The property was fantastic and we would highly recommend it."
We had a 3 month gap during a house sale and purchase so required accommodation. Whilst we did stay at other properties we found the location, setting, privacy and property quality drew us back several times.
Hi David,
Wonderful review, many thanks.
Hope your new home is sorted now and glad you found The Gatekeepers a return stay holiday home. Thanks for your repeat bookings.

"This was our first Christmas away and we was very anxious, however this was a home away from home."
It was so quiet and peaceful, the hot tub was amazing in the dark looking at the stars and the garden was lovely and secure so we didn’t have to worry about the dogs being out there. It was all so modern and can honestly say I couldn’t fault anything about this home thank you again
Hi John,
Glad you had a wonderful Christmas at the Gatekeepers, the hot tub is in a great location for star gazing. Hope to see you soon.
Best wishes John.

"We stayed at Gatekeepers Cottage for one week and loved the area and surroundings."
Although first impressions of the cottage were not good - toilet seat on arrival was completely loose and ill fitting, had to allow a couple of minutes each time we used it to get it in a position to sit on it. Also hob did not work properly, very frustrating at meal times, we gave up! Also no live TV! Apart from this all good. On a plus the beds were fantastic, very comfortable and loved the peacocks and goats. Just need to keep up with maintenance issues when they occur would be my advice as not great for the next visitors to walk into.
Hi Amanda,
Sorry you had a few issues, these have been fixed.
Glad you enjoyed the wonderful cottage.
Hope you book again.

"Property was as described, although we struggled to locate as hidden from road behind electronic gate."
No gate code given with arrival information. The drive up to it was a bit hairy but we got used to it. Great location for visiting surrounding area though as once down the hill you’re on the main trunk road straight away.
Living and sleeping space all on one level upstairs above triple garage, strange smell as you enter property but disappeared as you went upstairs.
As a family of four, stopping for 7 nights we struggled with cooking meals some nights due to lack of equipment - no wok, microwaveable bowls etc this could easily be rectified. Also struggled with the hob - it kept pulsing don’t know if this is normal for an induction hob? It was brand new as we had to take the label off to cook on it! Maybe a user manual would be helpful? Freezer was very frosted up - struggled to open a couple of drawers.
Towels were very small! Toilet seat didn’t fit the toilet and there were some areas in bathroom that weren’t as clean as we would have expected eg. dust falling from extractor, masking tape round towel rail, edge of bath panel not clean.
We were told there would be a gas bbq but couldn’t locate one, bought disposable one instead as kids were looking forward to it. It would be nice to have some more thought given to outside area as the next door property has a whole host of outdoor provisions.
We were the first people to stay in the property and took a risk booking it as there were no photos available at the time. The property is as pictured but it’s just the finer points that need to be looked at. All in all a good stay, just hope that these smaller items can be rectified for future visitors.
We loved our week in North Wales and will definitely visit again as soon as much to see and do.
Hi Sarah,
Appreciate your comments, we as owners and our care team will action your points to improve the stay for others and hopefully you next time.
The gate code has been sorted now, what is special about the gate is the privacy and country retreat.
I will arrange a bbq for next spring.
With feedback we can sort the finer details.

"Stayed at Gateskeeper Cottage for 4 nights and found it very comfortable, clean and tidy."
All on one level (1st floor) with outdoor space and lovely goats and peacocks for neighbours, kept us entertained, very friendly. Fully equipped kitchen, all facilities, although we did not do any cooking.
The shower was fantastic, had both rainfall and normal shower heads both very powerful. Could do with a slip mat in bath and perhaps a hook to hang things on and larger towels, nice to wrap up after shower.
Only other oversight was not being supplied with Gate Lock number, this should be included with Key Safe number in information supplied. Also would be useful to include that cottage is hidden behind a large gate as we could not see clearly from lane as hidden by gate.
Anghard was very helpful and friendly on phone and supplied us with gate code.
Overall we had a great stay.
Hi Jill,
Many thanks for your wonderful review, we as a team are so pleased you had a great stay. The code for the gate has now been sorted in the booking information (my oversight sorry).
Angharad & John do an excellent job looking after the grounds and goats and peacocks, they make the properties clean, tidy and in top standards for discerning guests who deserve a
no hassle well deserved relaxing holiday. Hope to see you again.
Best wishes
