    “Directions to the cottage are dreadful, the door at the top of the alley needs to have a sign with the cottage name and an arrow pointing where to go.”

    Didn't like having to walk through people's washing and all the bins which were quite smelly, a parking space outside the door would be great and an enclosed garden as that is where the evening sun is, there's plenty of room and there would still have walking access to the adjoining houses. The cottage itself is well equipped, dining table not large enough for more than four people. Instruction booklet needs to be left out for new guests.

    Didn't like having to walk through people's washing and all the bins which were quite smelly, a parking space outside the door would be great and an enclosed garden as that is where the evening sun is, there's plenty of room and there would still have walking access to the adjoining houses. The cottage itself is well equipped, dining table not large enough for more than four people. Instruction booklet needs to be left out for new guests. Good location for getting to the beaches, lovely fish & chips and ice cream parlour in walking distance. Dylan's great for eating out. We thought the lights being on timers all the time were unnecessary as they even came in when the sun was shining. A bit more attention to detail regarding the general house keeping would be a great improvement. Freezer needs to be defrosted regularly. Despite the issues we enjoyed our time in Criccieth.

The property

A great little conversion offering a bright, contemporary holiday home and all of Criccieth's delights within easy walking distance. "Once a school house, then a bakehouse, now converted to a great holiday cottage close to the beach, Castle and the famous Cadwalader's ice cream shop!" The spacious kitchen has an electric oven and hob, washer/drier, fridge with ice compartment, microwave and toaster.

There is a dining table and chairs.

A door leads out to a delightful wooden clad private little nook with garden furniture. The large sitting room has sofas, an electric log effect burner with remote control and large flat screen TV, DVD. There are stairs from the sitting room which lead up to the two bedrooms.

One has a double bed and the other is a double (4ft) with single bunk over the top. The bathroom has a short bath with shower over (limited headroom), loo, wash hand basin and heated towel rail. The front courtyard has planters and shared pathway access to Castle Street.

It can therefore be used for access by neighbours on occasion. The stairs are quite narrow and a little steep. Criccieth has retained it's lovely laid back seaside charm with its lovely beach and, of course, the Castle.

There are excellent places to eat from simple fish and chips to gourmet dining.

You won't find any chain stores here, just unique, individual and interesting little shops in addition to the essential post office and convenience shops. A little further afield is Porthmadog where you can access both the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways and the mountains of Snowdonia.

About the location

CRICCIETH

Porthmadog 5 miles; Portmeirion 8 miles; Abersoch 15 miles.

Often described as the 'Pearl of Wales on the shores of Snowdonia’, this delightful seaside town is situated just 5 miles from Porthmadog. The town’s 13th-century castle perches majestically on a rocky outcrop, dominating the skyline and offering superb views of Tremadog Bay and the Snowdonia mountains. Watersports enthusiasts will be delighted by the two beaches, whilst walkers and bikers are spoilt for choice by the proximity of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Stroll along the beaches, watch porpoises playing in the surf, or relax in the various pubs, restaurants and tea rooms, sampling the famous Cadwalader’s ice cream. Further afield, attractions such as Portmeirion’s wonderful Italianate gardens, the Ffestiniog railway in Porthmadog, Harlech Castle, Caernarfon Castle and the beautiful beaches and renowned golf courses of the Llyn Peninsula are all within an easy drive.

Note: You are able to walk down the alley next to Little Bakehouse, which brings you out into Castle Square. PLEASE BE AWARE THE ALLEY HAS NO LIGHTING AND IS VERY DARK AT NIGHT
Note: The front courtyard can be used for access by neighbours on occasion.
Note: The stairs are quite narrow and a little steep.
