    “Easy to find based on owner's instructions.”

    Just put the writers' centre on google maps, keep left as you see it (right is their parking) and go all the way to the end. the place has nice views all the way to the sea. it's good if you have a dog, long driveway and very quite village at the bottom, so it's good for walks. There's a pub (no food) and a shop with basic stuff in the village, literally 7-8 minute walk. criccieth town centre is 40 min walk away or 5 min drive. more pubs, shops, petrol etc there (no supermarket) ...

    Just put the writers' centre on google maps, keep left as you see it (right is their parking) and go all the way to the end. the place has nice views all the way to the sea. it's good if you have a dog, long driveway and very quite village at the bottom, so it's good for walks. There's a pub (no food) and a shop with basic stuff in the village, literally 7-8 minute walk. criccieth town centre is 40 min walk away or 5 min drive. more pubs, shops, petrol etc there (no supermarket). supermarket 13 min away drive asda or 20 min away in porthmadog (more there). so location is good, surrounded by peace and green. property has one bedroom, clean, wardrobes, and open space living/kitchen with TV, sofa and armchair. kitchen is well equipped with most things you need. you park right in front. electric radiators if it gets cold and fireplace. comfy bed, sofa is for 2 people, so not massive, but ok. dining area in the open space too. traditionally decorated, so it has a warm vibe. nice forest walk just out the driveway (go down towards village and on ur right). footpath right in front of the house too, but we didn't use it. our dog likes wide open beaches, so we drove to porthmadog for black stone sands, it was our favorite. there are closer beaches too, including in criccieth or closer. overall this is a very good place if you're looking for tranquility, green and peace. i think it's even better in the summertime, so we're planning to come back at some point. we've been in november to avoid fireworks and bonfires, our dog has a weak heart and is afraid of them. so it was perfect for what we needed. we met the owner once, a very nice lady. there are about 4-5 cottages in the area around this writers' centre, guess they live in one of them, not sure. we didn't see many people around, probably 4-5 people over a week. it's really quiet
