“Very enjoyable holiday.”

Great experience.

Great experience.
Mr Little September 2019

“A very warm welcome from Mrs Watkins the owner.”

Position excellent for views from the cottage and a base for exploring that part of Wales. We will very probably return at some time.Thank you to Mrs Watkins for sharing her lovely home.
Miss O Connor August 2019

“It is a most beautiful cottage with views of hills and mountains all around.”

It is situated in a good place just about 3 miles from the main towns and steam railways. The owner Mrs Watkins left us a lovely homemade cake and a basket of fruit as a welcome, she lives next door but did not intrude on us in anyway. The cottage was clean, lovely decorated, beds comfortable everything you would need was there! The WiFi probably needs a booster to the upstairs rooms. I would go there again and I would encourage others to stay there it is a beautiful farmhouse cottage. Excellent in every way!
Mrs Fox July 2019

“The views from the cottage were amazing, you could sit & look out of the window all day.”

During our stay we were able to see red squirrels on Anglesey, seals at Nefyn & dolphins at Criccieth. The cottage was well positioned to travel around the area. We would return here again.
Mrs Barber July 2019

“Just had a lovely week at "Ymwlch Bach".”

The views from every window are absolutely stunning!The cottage was very comfortable and homely and we had everything there what we needed.Mrs. Watkins left us a lovely bara brith cake, a fruit basket and bowel of sweets, she is very nice. We loved watching the sheep. Lots of places to visit for us whatever the weather. Criccieth beach was beautiful to swim in., also recommend Harlech Castle, the slate cavern nearby. Went on the welsh highland railway and the festiniog railway took some amazing photos.
Mr Cleaver June 2019

“The cottage was very clean, well equipped and ideally located for exploring north Wales.”

We look forward to staying here again in the future.
Miss Beasley June 2019

“Mrs Watkins was a fantastic host, The cake on arrival was amazing well needed and all hand made by Mrs Watkins, There was everything you could possibly need the cottage was well equip tidy and comfortable, The bedrooms were decorated really nicely and the beds were comfortable.”

The scenery from every window was beautiful overlooking the mountains, black rock sands was only a short drive away you could even take the car on to the beach, we had a few wet days so ventured into Porthmadog to the harbour there is also plenty of places to shop there as well, the national cycle route was literally on the doorstep from the cottage and the costal paths were really nice to cycle they were well maintained. We wouldn't hesitate to go back there and we were told if we were ever in the area to pop in for a coffee and a chat which we sure will do. Mrs Watkins the pleasure was ours thankyou for being an amazing host and I promise to learn welsh so I can come and work for the welsh ambulance service Lisa and John x
Mrs Povey April 2019

“We had everything we needed and more.”

The kitchen was well stocked and had the extra things we needed like a cot and highchair. We even had mini Easter eggs left for us on the kitchen table and a cake. Nothing was no trouble, we washed out one of our sons blankets and put it on the line to dry during the day, while we were out it was raining and the owner got the blanket in and dry it out and gave it to us that night. This was amazing and very helpful. There was a lot of space for our two young boys to play in and outside as well. We all loved our break away.
Mr Flanagan April 2019

“A lovely, cosy farmhouse with incredible views of the mountains.”

Great location for NW Wales. We loved the home made cake on arrival, the open fire and the comfy beds. The kids loved it too.
Mr Castle October 2018

“Mrs Watkins was a generous and welcoming host.”

The house was warm and cosy with all the facilities and equipment we needed for our stay. We would definitely stay here again.
Ms O'Dowd September 2018

“This property was amazing.”

.. Mrs Watkins is an absolute gem and made sure that everything in her cottage was perfect and that i was taken care of. As a solo female traveler, i could not ask for more. She baked a cake for my arrival and it was such a nice touch. I look forward to staying here many more times as the views from every room were simply stunning! It was also nice to have a cup of tea in the morning with my host so that i could learn a little more about the area and places to go.
Mr Reid August 2018

“We have just returned from a lovely stay in Ymwlch Bach Farmhouse with 2 adults and 4 children.”

The house is clean, comfortable and well equipped and the home baked cake on arrival was much appreciated. The location is ideal with great views of the mountains, only 20-30 minutes drive from the beach at Black Rock Sands, ZipWorld Bounce Below, cycle hire in the forest at Beddgelert bikes and canyoning "Adventures with Bob" at Llyn Gwynant - all highly recommended by the teenagers! Many thanks to Mrs Watkins for promptly posting back some clothes we left behind!
Mr Wareham August 2018

“We had a fantastic time and it was a lovely cottage”
Mrs May June 2018

“Mrs Watkins was very welcoming and we enjoyed the Barabrith cake she had baked for us.”

The house was cosy and comfortable with everything needed for a self catering holiday.
Mrs Brennan May 2018

“Perfect location for exploring the beautiful places in North Wales.”

Beautiful views. A little further from Criccieth than we had expected therefore a car is essential. I do not believe this property should be advertised as in Criccieth as it clearly is not. The lounge area in the property was very dusty and in need of a thorough clean, the rest of the property was acceptable. Sufficient space for six adults although an extra bathroom would be beneficial.
Sally R September 2015

“Fantastic choice for family”

I booked to go with my 3 grand children ages 17,15 & 9. It is a lovely peaceful location & safe, we had a fun packed week visiting Snowden, Zip Wire, Bounce Below, Portmeirion, Black Rock Sands, Porthmadoc, Caernavon, Llanfair P.G, & Beaumaris. The children are already planning a return trip and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The location is perfect as it is within driving distance of most if not all of the main Snowdonia attractions. The owner Mrs Watkins is a perfect host and you wouldn't have known she was next door, but on hand for advice when needed, also bakes a lovely Bara Brith which was very welcome. Would recommend a stay and would definetly return.
psbous August 2015

“Great location”

We stayed for a week with our 2 children. The house is really nice and in such a quiet and scenic location. Plenty to do nearby and the owner is really nice and helpful.
historynut79 July 2015

“Nice cottage in a very pretty spot”

We had a lovely week here with our two small children. Lovely views in all directions, a little garden for the kids to run around in, enough space inside for us, and very easy to get down to the coast at Criccieth or Porthmadog, or into Snowdonia. I don't think I would recommend it for more than 4 adults though - the sitting room and one small bathroom would be a real squeeze for that many.
jamief997 February 2015

“Lovely cottage in a lovely location”

We had a really nice stay here. The landlady - who lives in the adjoining but completely separate part of the house - had baked us a cake on arrival. The views are tremendous and the accommodation offers a great base for exploring North Wales.

Watersports enthusiasts will be delighted by the two beaches, whilst walkers and bikers are spoilt for choice by the proximity of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park.
