“This was my third stay in Samphire.”

The accommodation has been upgraded since last year and now benefits from new double glazing and fitted kitchen. Everything you need is available in the chalet. It is the perfect location for visiting the numerous places of interest in the local area. I would also recommend the onsite cafe, Route 66, who do an excellent Sunday roast!

“The Cottage was exceptionally clean and well equipped, you had thought of everything, little touches like tea and coffee, biscuits ,also soap shower gel shampoo and conditioner.”

With a washing machine and dishwasher everything the hard working housewife needs to make her holiday a holiday. Thanks for making our holiday a great one, we will definitely be booking again. Regards Keith Maddox

“Our family of 5 had a lovely few days staying here, the chalet has everything you need and was clean and tidy.”

The heating was appreciated during the late evening as it surprisingly got very cold. The site is wonderful and my children loved the pool, and were able to explore safely. The poolside bar, cafe and small shop where all great facilities and not overly expensive. Great location to explore the local and further afield.

“I thought it was on the river so I will seat out facing the river, but it doesn’t!”

Also, the price for post the missing items is so much expensive £15, as we have paid for expensive holiday it should not take that much especially if I live in uk and that should cost £2 as mix price! Anyway, the cottage is good if you have your own car otherwise it will be difficult for travel around! The area is good but the city is better for transportation!

- Dr Algahtani, August 2021

The website does not show that the chalet is near the river, it does state that you can access the river from the site or indeed use the public swimming facilities. The £15 postage is set by the letting agent and clearly stated in the T&C's of booking and is to take into account the post and packaging and travel in the rural location. Please do have a chat to us before booking to ensure the location is right for your needs. We are please though that you found the chalet and location to be good. Property Owner

Mr Unsworth June 2021

“The location is quiet and well maintained.”

A small shop is available with a few essentials or a minin market about 400 mtrs away or Caernarfon town with all it's shops. A perfect place for a break.

“We had a great stay, very comfortable clean and in a good location close to attractions around.”

Would recommend it.

“We loved the Glan Gwna site with the river running through the wooded valley and the mix of chalets and caravans.”

The outdoor pool was lovely and a good size about 20m. We didn't visit the club and the poolside bar but it looked nice and was apparently 'cash only' The chalet itself was brilliant, plenty of space for the 5 of us and extremely well equipped with good quality beds and bedding and everything needed to self-cater and cook meals. There is an oven, hob ,and full size under counter fridge and freezer a washing machine with drying cycle and even a mini dishwasher. Outside the decked patio had sofas and tables, a gas BBQ and a gas heated lamp. it was a great place to stay and with the good weather we were sad to leave !

“The wifi at this property is usless i didnt work the whole holiday we had to use ...”

The wifi at this property is usless i didnt work the whole holiday we had to use our own data the wifi situation need improving a dongle is no good or wifi need removing from listing The property also suffered from damp our clothes felt damp and there was evidence of damp in property The pictures of outside give apperance of property in the sun with no other neighbours close this is an inacurate picture as no sun ever on property and very close to other chaletd

- Mrs Ellis, September 2020

Thank you for your feedback, it is important to us. There was a fault on the WIFI which we were unaware of and we were happy to give compensation to you for this. The problem is now rectified. Condensation forms in the corners of the bathroom due to the numbers of people using it, we try hard to keep this under control. The property has the benefit of full gas fired central heating and does not feel damp in either bedrooms or the main living area, bathrooms and kitchens cannot be controlled in the same way due to cooking and bathing. In November new windows will be installed in the property fitted with background air vents to control condensation. The chalet does have sunlight in the morning and evening on the balcony. It is located on a holiday park and has neighbours. We cannot change the location of the chalet but despite its orientation it is in one of the liveliest and popular corners of the park and does have a bench seating area which is outside the balcony where full daytime sun can be enjoyed. The telephone number of our housekeeper is always displayed in the chalet and most problems can be quickly resolved if they are contacted straight away. Property Owner

“Have stayed in this chalet before and was pleased to find many improvements since then.”

The kitchen and bathroom have been updated. The central heating is a bonus . The patio area has plenty of comfortable outside seating. The facilities on the site are good. The chalet provides an excellent base for exploring Snowdonia. Would definitely stay again.

“The WiFi never worked.”

I had to wait 2 days for the code and it still would not connect. Although it wasn’t the end of the world, it was supposed to be provided. The hoover did not work. Very hard to clean without a hoover. I did brush up several times but without a dustpan that was impossible. Otherwise it’s a very good base for exploring North Wales. Good value for money.

- Mrs Willcock, August 2020

We are really happy to hear you enjoyed your stay in North Wales and thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear you had difficulty with the Wifi but are glad it was resolved during your stay, also the hoover has been checked and found to be working normally. We hope to be able to welcome you back to North Wales soon Property Owner

“Well kept and very well equipped.”

Small extras, such as soap, coffee, tea, sugar, makes a lot of difference.
