    “The property was fine apart from 1) There was no firewood which it said was there and no place in the town sold it 2) The heating was odd as it was cool downstairs and hot upstairs 3) The on suite shower tray was semi blocked and would have flooded if we had 2 showers quickly 4) The telly didn't work except on iplayer.”

    I phoned the owner who didn't ring back so I phoned 2 hours later. Someone then rang me back and tried to talk me through it but said it was broken. I then had no more assistance so no tv for the holiday

    Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry that your stay wasn’t as smooth as it should have been, and we appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Regarding the firewood, we apologise for the inconvenience this caused. Firewood is normally provided, and it’s clear we fell short on this occasion. We will be reviewing our preparation procedures to ensure this does not happen again. Thank you also for highlighting the heating imbalance between floors. We understand how this can affect comfort, and we will be asking our heating engineer to investigate and make adjustments so the system works more evenly throughout the property. We are sorry to hear about the partially blocked shower tray. This should not have been the case, and we have since had a plumber attend to fully clear and check the drainage. As for the television, the property is equipped with BBC iPlayer facilities rather than Freeview channels. However, your feedback has highlighted that some guests prefer to have Freeview available as well. We are always looking for ways to improve our guests’ holiday experience, so we have now taken steps to upgrade the television service to include Freeview channels. This will ensure that future guests do not encounter the same issue. We truly value your comments as they help us improve. We are sorry that these issues impacted your holiday, and we hope we will have the opportunity to welcome you back for a much better experience in the future. Thank you Property Manager ________________________________________ Property Owner

About the location

BLAENAU FFESTINIOG

Porthmadog 11 miles.

The fascinating old slate town of Blaenau Ffestiniog is situated in a superb position for exploring the Snowdonia National Park. There is a good selection of shops, pubs and places to eat. The main local attractions include Zip World Slate caverns, the longest zip line in Europe and fastest in the world, this is a great underground adventure. The slate mines now hold the prestigious status of a world heritage site, awarded by UNESCO and visitors can take enthralling underground trips there to see mining as it was done in days gone by. The famous narrow gauge Ffestiniog mountain railway also runs for 13 miles through the Snowdonia National Park to the harbour town of Porthmadog. Nearby is Portmeirion village, famous for its architecture and the film set of the cult TV series The Prisoner, plus local beaches, suitable for children, are within easy driving distance.
