“The accommodation: it was absolutely first class.”

We would have immediately rebooked for 2 weeks next year, but the price hike from last year's fees makes it unlikely that we will. We really cannot justify spending the increased price; which roughly works out to be roughly £300 per week more. Such a shame as we have been to this particular owners' properties on two previous occasions and would very much like to return.

“A delightful cottage in the perfect location.”

Even a garage to keep the car out of the rain! Remote from the road and surrounded by farmland with escaped sheep, lambs and cattle adding to the excitement.

Mrs Edwards April 2021

“We had a wonderful stay enjoyed the peaceful setting.”

One very small thing that would have been great would have had table place mats available. I love eating off hot plates and didn’t want to damage the dining table ......... I know this is a very small request and for most people it wouldn’t have mattered. I would definitely return a very special place to recharge our batteries.

“Everything was perfect.”

Surrounding area v quiet but just a shirt drive into town . Beautifully appointed house. No problems whatsoever. The house is even more gorgeous than the pictures. We will book again.

Miss Drowley August 2020

“Ty Mawr is a beautiful house with views from every window.”

The pictures on the website don’t do it justice. From booking the holiday to the clear instructions on finding the cottage the process could not have been easier. And when you arrive the cottage has everything. We enjoyed a wonderful week in this cottage where all you can hear is the birds and sheep. Very peaceful

“We had expected towels, tea towels and some toilet rolls at property, but there were none.”

Some cushions for sofas would have been good too, but washing covers each week could be too much. However, it should be possible to wash towels for new guests each week and we had only been told to bring those needed for beach. We had arranged with you to bring our own pillows and did so, but these were at the property, so communication broke down somewhere along the line. At property, recycling guidance was years out of date and more materials are taken than listed in welcome guide. Council website has a simle guide at https://www.gwynedd.llyw.cymru/en/Residents/Bins-and-recycling/What-goes-into-the-bin/What-goes-into-the-bin.aspx - also a one-page PDF guide that can be downloaded and printed. It would be good if a food bin was provided, as collected by the council. Overall, property and holiday was very good.

“Ty Mawr is a lovely property in a truly peaceful setting.”

The house is finished to a high standard and is comfortable and stylish inside. The beds are comfortable. We were lucky enough to have sunny days and spent long evenings in the garden with just the sheep in the field next door for company. There are lots of walks and Blackrock Sands beach is just down the road. We think this wonderful beach is spoilt by people being allowed to their drive cars onto the beach, so we walked an extra 15 minutes over the hill to Criccieth where the beach is quiet and can be enjoyed in its natural setting.

“Lovely house set in a beautiful place with great views and stunning night skies.”

Evenings spent by a roaring log fire with great underfloor heating giving toasty toes throughout our stay. A view of Black Rock sands which must be one of the best beaches in the country.

“The cottage was in a lovely peaceful location and had been very tastefully refurbished.”

Everything we needed was provided. Our only comment would be that we would have far preferred the garden furniture to be in the garden.

“Ty Mawr was great lots of spacious rooms, the children played hide & seek.”

The cottage had everything we needed, was nice & cosy .it was great being so near black rock beach we all loved it there. It is not far from the town. The farm was nice for the children as there was lots of new born lambs & alpacas to watch.

The property

Ty Mawr, 200 years old, stands in a glorious, ancient landscape with bronze age hut circles, a Neolithic Burial Chamber and views to the beach at Black Rock Sands.

In medieval times, jousting tournaments were held just above the house. "This delightful house sits comfortably in the peaceful landscape looking towards the beach at Black Rock Sands, between Criccieth and Porthmadog." After three generations of farming the tenancy reverted back to the owner, who with her architect husband have transformed Ty Mawr to the glorious house it is today.

It is such a splendid house that has been put together with such care and attention to detail. The farm continues to flourish with sheep cattle and alpaca (protecting the sheep from Mr Fox) grazing the gentle slopes from Moel y Guest down to the sea.

Black Rock Sands is just down the road.

Just a short drive away are the beautiful sea side towns of Criccieth and Porthmadog.

From here you can easily explore the Italian village of Portmeirion, the Welsh Highland Railway, as well as castles, beaches and a number of great restaurants and cafes.

About the location

PORTHMADOG

Harlech 5 miles; Caernarfon 19 miles.

The bustling harbour town of Porthmadog lies on the Glaslyn Estuary and enjoys a stunning setting. The gateway to the Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog is full of individual shops and restaurants, and home to the Ffestiniog Railway, where you can travel by steam through spectacular Snowdonia scenery, to Blaenau Ffestiniog. The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk or drive from the town. The well known and unique Italianate village of Portmeirion is just down the coast. Situated on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula, Portmeirion, famous as the location of the TV show The Prisoner and the final episode of Cold Feet, is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and woodlands. The area also boasts castles at Criccieth and Harlech, and superb unspoilt beaches such as Black Rock Sands, where the sands stretch as far as the eye can see. An ideal location for the attractions of Snowdonia and the The Lleyn Peninsula.

Note: If you are bringing a dog please bring your own dog bowls, bedding etc. Please do not bring your dog if it is coming into or is already in season. We respectfully ask that you do not use any of the furniture or cushions, rugs etc. for your dog.
