  • "We had to empty the vacuum bag to able to clean up."

    Lounge smelt of dogs as did the vacuum. My husband bought some air fresheners for the vacuum and shake and vac for the lounge . Other issues reported to owner too on arrival. Double bed wasn't very comfortable and their was dog faeces in the garden. It's a lovely large bungalow and warm in an evening. The drive was difficult to park on due to parked cars opposite. There are lots of things to do in the area and was a great base.

    As usual the bungalow was clean and cosy,with everything that was needed,even dog bowls.Able to go on more walks especially the gorgeous beach with my daughter and our dogs now I've had my knee replacement.Will certainly book again, one thing we missed was the welcome pack,tea,coffee and sugar were there in canisters but a small bottle of milk would of been appreciated,not a complaint though just a suggestion,Angela xx

    Hi Angela, Really pleased to welcome you back. Apologies regarding the milk, but due to it needing to be fresh, and my not always being able to attend at Change Over, Cleaners attend it has not always been possible to supply the milk. So glad you had a good stay, and that you were able to access and enjoy the beach in particular - it is one of the most overlooked beaches in the area, but one of the most superb, because people miss it with the A55 now running what was originally part of the Penmaenmawr Prom, but now has high walls.

Only downside is now we're home I have a very unhappy staffy .......she absolutely loved it too and misses the beach and sea.

    This is my second time staying at Arwelfa and I chose it again because it really is home from home Access can be restricted due to cars parking opposite but in my large car , Ford Mondeo , I took 1 shunt and got very easily onto the spacious driveway so please don’t let this put you off Once inside , the bungalow is very spacious and all the rooms are large My favourite is to sit in the living room in the single chairs ( although there are 2 sofas ) and look out to sea especially towards Penmon Point and Puffin Island Penmaenmawr has all that you need and some takeaways do deliver if you don’t fancy cooking 1 evening, we can highly recommend Junction Tandoori from Llandudno or Harvest Moon Chinese from Llanfairfechan We also had a home delivery from Tesco so all your comforts can be sorted The kitchen is fully equipped so when I did cook I had everything I needed to hand At some point we will be back next year without a doubt

    Hi David, Thank you so much for your feedback, which we really do appreciate. The plan is to make the opportunity for even better views, with the build of a balcony outside of the Living Room French Doors. Hopefully this will be done by the end of this year. We would be very pleased to welcome you back when you are able. Kind regards Sue Property Owner

  • "We left on Thursday as the bungalow made me ill it smelt really bad of damp and fustiness."

    The shower had a small amount of mould. We thought at first that someone had tried to clean the sitting room carpet as it was quite stained and that was causing the smell but it never went. The parking was awful as it was a busy road so that the way cars parked stopped us getting on the drive. On a positive if the owner gets to the bottom of the dreadful smell it could be a lovely little bungalow. I could not recommend Penmennmawr to stay as there really is nothing to do there

    Hi Marion, Thank you for your feedback, which is always appreciated. We are sorry to learn that you had a less an wonderful experience, though would like to note that you didn't reach out to us to let us know. Had you done so we would have had an opportunity to sort things out. On our weekly changeover visit we did notice what looked like the remnants of a party having taken place, and can only assume that this must have been the cause of the smell in the lounge. However, I'm pleased to be able to say that by the Saturday no such smell remained. We will, of course, ask the Cleaner to check out the carpet for any previously unseen stains. Finally, we can only apologise for the cars parked on the other side of the road. This unfortunately this is out of our control being a Public Highway. Kind regards Sue Property Owner

  • "On the whole bungalow beautiful BUT , shortage of wardrobes."

    No mirrors , Mum is 5ft.3inches and could just see top of hair in bathroom. Drain in kitchen smelt . Bathroom sink took ages to empty. Very very slow. Shower flooded. Garden was really bad . Unable to sit out cos of Bindweed , Blackberry , weeds , dead poppies . Really needs attention. Lastly bins put them out , but not emptied they weren’t emptied from week before. They were attacked by birds, cats or something all over drive. It was quiet and overall good for us.

    Hi Kate, Thank you for your feedback, which is always appreciated, and are so pleased that you enjoyed the bungalow :-). I'm happy to confirm that following investigation of both the kitchen sink and bathroom washbasin drains by our Drainage Contractor we've been advised that no problems were found. Please accept our apologies regarding both the garden and the bins. Our contracted Gardener is recuperating from an accident which put him off work for just over a month, which unfortunately meant that the garden had got somewhat overgrown - he's now back and it is much improved after this first visit. The bins I am afraid are a different matter. The Welsh Government are very firm on recycling and meeting the necessary targets. This means that Conwy County Borough Council only collect the Waste Bin every 4 weeks, and they were due the Monday after you left. I did check the day you arrived and there was sufficient room for one week's waste in the waste bin. The recycling and the food bin are collected weekly, which was on the Monday after your arrival on the Saturday and there appeared to be room on your arrival day for any recycling your stay provided until the collection. I have further checked with the Council and they have advised that normal weekly recycling collection took place on that Monday. Kind regards, Sue Property Owner

    Very clean and well equipped. The only downside is that we are used to a King sized bed and struggled with the double. As an elderly couple we found the hill from the village a bit too much but it was not an issue as we just used the car. The bathroom very modern but would benefit from a shower caddy to put shampoo, soap and shower gel rather than on the floor. Also a couple of easy chairs in the conservatory would have been nice. Parking tight but wasn’t an issue. Dogs enjoyed outside enclosed courtyard. Overall a very enjoyable stay with everything you need

    A welcome pack including wine, Welsh cakes, tea, coffee, etc. etc. added to the welcome. The bungalow is very spacious with EVERYTHING that we could wish for. It is decorated to a high standard and was very clean. The guide for the property contained all that we needed. The location is great and allowed easy access to Anglesey, Bangor, Conwy, etc.etc. We spoke to the owner on a couple of occasions and Sue was extremely helpful and friendly.

  • "The property was excellent."

    The whole place has been very recently upgraded to a high standard. The village and beach was much better than expected with nice cafe on the edge of the beach. There are footpaths nearly all the way down. Head for Constitution lane, there is also a nice secluded park on the way. At the bottom look for Archway/tunnel under the Road and Railway onto the promenade. The bungalow driveway is a bit tight to get into for bigger cars, We only did it for unloading and parked outside on the road for the rest of the time no problem. Everything was there we needed. Thanks to the owners, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Hi Colin, Thank you for your feedback. We're so pleased that you found Arwelfa and it's surroundings to your liking. There certainly is a lot to see and do within close proximity. Kind regards, Sue Property Owner

    Yes, there are steps into the property and out from the conservatory but my trusty stick helped me to negotiate these and the effort was more than worthwhile. In fact, the two of us ate all our meals outside in the wooden arbour, keeping an eye on our dog and looking at the mountains we used to climb. The local people went out of their way to be helpful when we were looking for places without a satnav. Superb!

    Yes only one thing I would suggest is blackout curtains in the bedroom - As the cottage is very well lighted by sun and in summers it would be wonderful to have long hours sleep without sunshine waking you up

PENMAENMAWR

Conwy 5 miles.

Nestled on the North Wales coast between Llanfairfechan and Conwy, Penmaenmawr is an old quarrying town now adapted into a delightful community stretching along this stunning coastline, yet retaining much of its Victorian architecture, with many local pubs, restaurants and shops, a superb golf course and golden, sandy beaches. Set on the side of the Tal-Y-Fan mountain, many parts of Penmaenmawr and its sister village Dwygyfylchi enjoy stunning views across Conwy Bay to Llandudno, Puffin Island, Anglesey and the Irish Sea, and if you are lucky, dolphins and seals can sometimes been see playing in the bay. A recently opened cycle path leads along the coastal path to Conwy Marina to the East, and Llanfairfechan to the west. Or, head up the Conwy valley through the Sychnant Pass on to the mountain trails that abound there. The sailing club in Penmaenmawr is well established and welcomes day guests, as does the 9 hole golf course, set amongst stunning coastal scenery on the lower slopes of the village. On the promenade you will find numerous activities such as a skate park, a children's paddling pool as well as a beach cafe which is open most of the year. There are also beach huts on the promemade that you can hire by the day. Also near to the beach is a bowling green and all weather tennis courts.
