“Had a great time seeing new sites/ beaches etc”
Mrs Jowitt August 2020

“Well where do I start.”

It is a shame that this property had not been maintained and cared for as the location was stunning. The outside area was poor with overgrown shrubbery, a patio which had with dirty chairs and so much dirt and grime just awful and unusable ( advertised full use of). The cottage inside was well worn and grubby especially the kitchen; a cooker with no dial controls, food deposits down the side, wooden spoons when wet were slimy due to their age, rusty old cooking tins and a first aid kit with no contents ( advertised full use of). Dispite being told of the extra cleaning procedures due to Covid-19 we found this property to be well below standard. Standards should be of the highest quality at at all times paying customers expect.
Mr Preston March 2020

“Great location, ten mins walk from village.”

Full equipped, apart from towels, although we knew about this prior to arrival. Fantastic communication from host. Would definitely use again.
Mrs Martin-evans July 2019

“Fantastic location, gorgeous sea views, quiet and tranquil and a well stocked holiday letting.”

Would definitely visit again.
Mrs Addy April 2019

“Abersoch is great, lots of good walking and the most fabulous beaches and views.”

We would definitely return. Plenty of eating and drinking choices whilst still retaining a village feel. Dog owners note many parts of coastal path require dog on a lead due to farmland abutting. But lots of off-lead opportunities and dog friendly sections of the beaches. The Grain Store is about 10 mins downhill walk into the centre of Abersoch. Its perfectly adequate for a weeks stay with a quirky lay-out and clean enough where it matters. Comfy beds. We were supposed to get an e-mail in advance from owners which never came, don't know why, but we missed the fact that no towels are provided - perhaps this should be clear in the property details? But not to worry, bath towels were offered to help us out when I asked, just a stress you dont need on arrival. Ramp to front door, but be aware there are a few steep steps to kitchen/bathroom if you have difficulties. No welcome pack provided but that didnt worry us - Asda in Pwhelli and large Londis in the village. Owners have field adjacent and we were permitted to use this for the dog, useful in a morning! Otherwise there is a small section of grass outside the back door. A very enjoyable week.
Ms Coombs March 2019

“Lovely views and central location for Abersoch.”

Very close to the owners but they kept a respectful distance .
Mr Lee March 2019

“The Grainstore is a lovely little cottage with everything that we needed , home from home !”

! Very well situated for exploring the nearby areas. The view is fantastic !!
Mrs Evans February 2019

“Lovely cosy cottage.”

Great view of the sea we sat out on the patio at lunchtime in February !! Short walk into town. Perfect. Would go again.
Mr Schofield February 2019

“Beautiful cottage in excellent location.”
Ms Derbyshire January 2019

“All went very smoothly resulting in a very enjoyable and relaxing week away.”

Communication from the owner providing exact location and access information led us straight to our destination and a stress free start!
Helen D January 2019

“Well appointed cottage in a great location”

The cottage has been well designed to make best use of all available space. Well equipped and comfortable accommodation perfectly situated to explore and enjoy the Llyn Peninsula with its beautiful beaches and stunning scenery.
Mrs Gandy November 2018

“Fantastic area, the owners were very accommodating as we booked this holiday home the same day we arrived!”

No faults what so ever - happily stay here again if in the area!
Mr Chamley October 2018

“Great location, clean & very well equipped & just 5 mins from Abersoch centre.”

Will definitely go again.
Mrs Gardiner September 2018

“A very relaxing holiday made very welcome by the owners who even gave us some of their home grown apples on arrival.”

We will definitely return there as it's such a peaceful spot with sea and mountain views and just a short walk to the village.
Mr Jones September 2018

“Enjoyable and very comfortable”

Very well equipped and clean. Lovely views, but lacked a blind in the kitchen to keep out the morning sun & for privacy at night.
A FlipKey verified reviewer November 2010

“definately a room with a view”

superb view to the sea from the kitcheneasy access to the town and sea.could do with a sofa in property though
Amanda December 2009

“Very good”

Had another wonderful stay although slightly wet! House as good as ever but beginning to get a little tired, although wouldnt stop us coming back again.
The Keelings December 2009

“Relaxed perfection.”

Although the owner lives very near within the grounds, our privacy was always respected. He was unobtrusive although very pleasant when we spoke to him to settle up at the end of our stay. The cottage was spotless, warm and cosy. Well appointed and equipped.Lots of hot water at all times. Great country and coastal walks on the doorstep, the nearest beach is about 10 minutes walk away but all the beaches in this area are clean. Do visit Hell's Mouth on a windy day! Beautiful views to the sea from the kitchen or the hills from the side of the cottage. Angela's is an excellent Italian restaurant but do book. There are no low points to this critique. We would go again and have recommended it to anyone who will listen. Fabulous.

About the location

ABERSOCH

Pwllheli 6 miles.

The attractive harbour village of Abersoch is situated on the Llyn Peninsula in a region of Wales renowned for its outstanding scenery and varied walking. The village, situated between two glorious bays, is one of the most popular sailing venues in North Wales and important sailing regattas are held there throughout the summer months. Numerous shops cater for the tourist as well as pubs, restaurants and cafes. There are also opportunities for golfers as there is a course just outside the village and horse riding facilities are also available nearby. Watersports enthusiasts are also well catered for, particularly windsurfing, water skiing and dinghy sailing, not to mention renowned surfing at Port Neigwl (Hell’s Mouth). The long, sandy Abersoch Main Beach is probably the most popular beach in the area. There is a wonderful selection of beaches in the surrounding area of the Llyn Peninsula, including the beautiful and often quiet Porth Ceriad, with it's high cliffs, and sandy Porth Oer ("Whistling Sands"). Most of the coastline is owned by the National Trust and there are many remote bays, sandy beaches and cliffs, as well as wildlife havens like Bardsey Island to explore.
