"Lovely bright, spacious apartment, supplied with everything you could possibly need and in a perfect central location."
Would definitely stay there again, perfect for the 2 of us
Just an afterthought, hooks on the back of shower room door would be useful and coasters on bedside tables
Thank you for your feedback Jackie. Really pleased you enjoyed your stay. We will have a look at implementing those helpful suggestions. See you again soon hopefully.

"Located on the High Street, this place is a great location close to food, shops, the beach, the castle, and the train station."
The view from the back doors does offer the enchanting view of the castle, as advertised on the Sykes' site. The directions received on how to find the place were not super clear but we managed to find it without too much inconvenience thanks to Google's help. At first glance, the property looks fabulous but some things were not as perfect as they seem. The 2 high dining chairs were hard and uncomfortable to get in and out of and is the only place to eat with the chairs sitting mere inches from the washroom door. The wooden armrest covers are heavy and fall easily to the floor with a loud crash. It would also have been appreciated if there was a place to hang coats and a small doormat. It rained a little bit during our stay and there is nowhere near the door to hang gear to dry, the only doormat to wipe off footwear is located outside the room so the floor got a little dirty when we removed our outerwear. The bedding and pillows were simply lovely but the bed itself was too soft for our comfort. At times, the noise from the street was audible and would wake us briefly, but it was not really awful. The heavy curtains really helped to block light as well as noise. We really appreciated having the dishwasher as there are not many pieces of each plates, bowls, cutlery etc. Thank you for the Welsh cakes, instant coffee, sugar, and milk as well. We would stay again if we were in the area for a short stay. On a side note, the fish and chips we had on our last night from the shop below was FABULOUS!! One of the best cod we've ever had! (I believe the establishment is owned by the same owner as the apartment.)
Hi Kelly-Anne
Really pleased that you had a lovely stay and enjoyed the cod and chips. Your comments are really appreciated and will assist in providing a better experience for future guests.

"Everything we needed."
Well supplied even with milk sugar tea coffee and Welsh cakes. The owners were wonderful to deal with couldn’t have asked for more. They were friendly and obviously took pride and interest in our welfare without being at all intrusive. Pity we live so far away would definitely stay here again. Thanks for the extra tea bags Helen Torr

"Swn Y Mor is a beautiful flat, decorated & furnished to a very high standard."
Right in the centre of Criccieth it's the perfect location for strolling around the town & a great base for exploring the area.
We had a wonderful stay here & would highly recommended it.

"The public car park was close behind the property with immediate access."
The parking permit provided covered parking in some other car parks elsewhere operated by the local authority, making it very useful. The fish & chips below, run by the same family, were frankly the best in the area and very useful after a tiring day. The furniture & fittings were very modern, very clean and very comfortable.

"We had a lovely stay in the apartment, everything was of high spec and had all we needed."
The location was great for visiting other places and we enjoyed a trip to Harlech on the train. We ate in No51 and Dylans, both were exceptional. The owners responded very quickly when we discovered the parking permit had not be left by previous guests and went to great lengths to make sure we were able to park in the car park at the rear of the property. The permit was returned the next day and dropped off for our use.
All in all a great few days away and will definitely return.
Dear Colette
Thank you for your lovely feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay at Swn y Mor and that you enjoyed Criccieth and its surroundings.
We hope to welcome you again.

"Excellent apartment, wonderful detail to decor."
Just loved it, view fantastic. The only thing I would like to mention is need to put in read up on site, no t towel or dishcloth and no handsome supplied.
Hi Jane
Many thanks for your feedback. I am sorry about the missing tea towel and dishcloth. I do usually supply these but must have forgotten on the changeover. There is also usually hand soap in the bathroom, but perhaps the previous guests finished what was there. I'm afraid I didn't notice it was missing. I will replace this.
I hope to see you again soon

Fantastic apartment very clean and had everything you needed for a self catering holiday the location has everything from shops pubs and restaurants all on the doorstep the only thing that I think was missing was a fire escape at the back of the apartment
Dear Barry,
Apologies for the delay in replying to your message. We appreciate your positive review and hope to see you again.
With regard to your concern about the absence of a rear fire escape, we can assure you that we are fully compliant with all statutory requirements. The stairwell is a protected corridor, we have invested considerably in fire abatement measures (through sprinkler and detection systems) and a rear fire escape is not required.
Kind regards

"For longer visits (we stayed just short of a week) we could have done with some more bath towels, definitely more than one roll of toilet paper, more than one bin bag for the kitchen and having some paper towels provided."
We had to replace the batteries in the TV remote. Although the pillows are obviously good quality, they were very lumpy and so some additional variety of non woollen would have been appreciated. Road by bedroom is very bright and noisy, a good pair of blackout curtains would go a long way to fixing this. Shower ran out of hot water on one occasion (used for no more than 20 minutes) and internet did drop. We got ticketed parking in the diagonal bays of what we thought was the long stay car park, this is very confusing to a non local especially arriving after dark. Some extra information as to which bays are long stay and can be parked in on the 'getting your keys' section would help. All that said these are very easily fixable niggles and our overall stay was enjoyable. The flat is very well situated for visiting the area and to a high standard of furnishing. The welcome cakes and milk were a nice touch and flat was spotlessly clean.

"This is a lovely flat perfect for two people, in fact the photos don't do it justice, it was immaculate on our arrival, felt brand new, nicely furnished and well equipped."
Very comfy bed and super bed linen. Our only gripe, minor issue, would be the flimsy toilet which didn't seem to be secured very well.
Dear Barbara
Apologies for the delay in responding to your very positive feedback, which we very much appreciate.
With regard to the toilet seat which you mention, we confirm that this has now been addressed.

"An absolutely amazing, spotlessly clean apartment."
It is situated in an ideal spot, central to all amenities and the ideal base to explore this beautiful location. Everything has been well thought out to make this the perfect stay and there was nothing more we could have asked for. The information pack was very detailed with everything you might need and the parking arrangements spot on. A special mention has to be made about the the bed which was so comfortable and the wool quilt and pillows were superb. We will definitely be returning and will be recommending to friends and family.

"Stunning property."
Well appointed and equipped. Incredibly comfortable wool pillows and duvet (great investment) Beautiful view of the castle from the French balcony. Fantastic location with shops,restaurants and pubs within short walking distance. The blue tooth in the bathroom is amazing. The shower is very slippy so had to wear flip flops. But apart from that, this is a superb property and we are recommending to friends and family and will book again.

"A beautiful and spotless holiday apartment with everything we needed for a weeks break."
The layout of the apartment is very well thought out to make the most of the space and finished with great taste. The photos do not do it justice, the bathroom and shower is very spacious and had a built in Wi-Fi connection. We’ll never forget that spectacular view of the castle from the French balcony. Criccieth itself is a very charming seaside town with lots of character and great connections.
