Awelfryn

The house is in an excellent location with the front patio overlooking the sea.

The house itself was as described, it is a lovely house that worked very well for our family. The owners were wonderful and very friendly. The welcome pack was a pleasant surprise. The rear patio and hot tub were really enjoyed.

We absolutely loved the house and the view.

We so enjoyed our stay in Criccieth! The welcome gifts and the fresh flowers in the house were so lovely. The house was well equipped and comfortable. We would definately book to stay again. Thank you!

A fantastic house in a perfect location, Awelfryn has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

The host lives close by and is happily on hand when needed. We would highly recommend this property.

We couldn't have been happier with the house and location.

The house was large and clean. The hot tub was used every day and the outdoor space is lovely. The view of the sea and castle are amazing. The house is a few minutes walk from the beach and local shops and some great places to eat are within walking distance too. The owners where always willing to help and give advice of places to visit. It's a great place to base your holiday if you want to stay in Criccieth or go a bit further in north Wales.

What a fabulous property with the most attentive and helpful owners - this is most definitely worth a visit.

A beautifully spacious and equipped house that met our requirements fully - nothing was lacking and the level of comfort was probably the best I’ve experienced in holiday accommodation. With multi-generational groups you need a house with plenty of space, as you do for a stay in November in really poor weather, and Awelfryn was just spot on. Great directions, lovely to chat with the owners and wonderful views, this was an unexpected find and we will return.

Wow, what a gem - this is the perfect property with amazing sea views.

The house is light and spacious with high ceilings and generous sized rooms. The kitchen has good facilities for cooking meals and there is a convenient garden barbecue grill. We found Tesco's is easy to get to a few miles away in Portmadog. The seven in our party slept really well on comfortable beds. It is just a short walk to the beach, promenade and castle - the locals we met were very friendly and welcoming to us. Alwefryn is so relaxing that on some days we hardly went out, with the kids enjoying games, sea views and the hot tub. Great house to use as a base for visiting the usual - Beddgelert, Sygun copper mine, Port Meirion, trips on Welsh Highland railways and Caernarfon Castle. Walking up Snowdon from Pen-Y-Pas was enjoyable and exhausting but we recommend booking the car park space. Will be back next year.

Outstanding property, with terrific views.

It was really appreciated that the owner went extra miles in a number of areas - welcome packs, fresh flowers. Great location for beach and hot tub worth the extra money (owner checked chemicals and cleaned it daily). Gas BBQ was available for use too - which was excellent and really clean. Lovely front patio catching sun all day and overlooking the sea.

This is a great place to stay.

It is a beautiful house and had lots of space for all of us. The facilities are excellent and the extra touches from the owners made it even more special. The location is really good as there is countryside at the back and a short walk to the beach at the front. We had great weather too and so enjoyed the garden and the hot tub.

This is a beautiful holiday home, plenty of space everything catered for with great views.

In a good location for local attractions and for exploring North Wales.

Absolutely beautiful house.

The photos really don't do it justice. It is so spacious and the views are just stunning. The welcome pack was fantastic. It is in a fantastic location, with everything you need in the village, but lots of lovely places to visit locally in the car too. The hot tub was well worth paying the extra for and it was checked each day. The friendly owners live very close by and were very helpful. We would love to return.

Stunning A perfect week in perfect accommodation.

The house was absolutely lovely, spacious, comfortable and with everything we could possibly have needed. Great views and location and lovely owners (thanks Dave & Julie!). The area is wonderful with so much to see and do. Very much hope to return next year.

Fantastic property in a lovely location.

High quality installations inside and out. Well equipped. Lots of little extras so no need to buy very much. Really good welcome package, Milk, tea and coffee, sugar, bara brith cake, welsh butter, sliced white bread and a bottle of champagne in the fridge. Lovely gardens with great views to front of house and seating area. Great garden to the back with lovely seating and hot tub. The owner lives about 4 houses down and was available instantly if needed. Thank you for making us feel very welcome. Very close to cafes, bars, shops amenities and close to the beach, promenade, very quaint place.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable family get together at Awelfryn.

The house is in a great position with fabulous sea views and close to all amenities. We enjoyed the contents of a delicious welcome hamper...local Welsh produce which met with everyone's approval. The house is well equipped, spacious and very comfortable. The hot tub was an added bonus and enjoyed by us all. Thank you to owners Dave & Julie for being so accommodating , it was nice to meet you.

Beautiful property in a stunning location.

We have holidayed in Criccieth the last few years, but this was the first time in Awelfryn. The view is amazing and the house is very well equipped. Comfortable home from home. Perfect for the beach and castle. Short distance to Pwllheli or Porthmadog for supermarkets with plenty of restaurants within walking distance if you don’t fancy cooking! We hope to return.

A beautiful, well appointed house for upto 7 people situated near Criccieth beach and village with lovely views, open fields to the rear and sea views from the front aspect with mature gardens and a hot tub.

The house is spacious and well kept. There were beautiful fresh flowers and a welcome hamper with delicious Welsh goodies was waiting for us on our arrival which I found delightful. There is nothing wanting in this rental, the owners have literally thought of everything! We would come back in a heartbeat! The property is so well situated for exploring Snowdonia and the Llyn Peninsula. The owners are a truly lovely family that were easily contactable, friendly and helpful whilst totally respectful of our privacy and we honestly couldn't have asked for more ! A great holiday was had by all

We loved our week at Awelfryn Non of us wanted to leave The house has everything we needed and the views are to die for We would definitely love to return

The property is situated in a beautiful location.

With outstanding views. We had everything that we needed for a great holiday.

Absolutely perfect.

Spacious property with lots of room for a family of five and dog. It has everything you could need and more. The sea views were fantastic. The view from the hot tub was amazing. We had a wonderful holiday I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to this holiday home.

Really well equiped, spacious and organised house.

Views from the living room were amazing. The were 8 of us including 2 babies (7 months and 5 months) and the house met everyones needs. The owner was very helpful in offering addition baby equipment if required. View of the stars from the hot tub were good because the area was dark

Lovely property and great location for all amenities

This was the best holiday home we have had!

! The house was spacious, light, had great views down to the sea and was well maintained and looked after. The teens LOVED the hot tub. Criccieth was a great village with lots more facilities than we thought and it didn't feel like there were lots of tourists there. Dave came to check the hot tub every day and was very friendly and helpful.

Excellent stay, very well equipped property beautifully furnished in a lovely location close to the bay.

Added touches to assist with our dog (extra water bowls, towels etc). Sadly we booked as a group of six but unfortunately our friends developed COVID so we're unable to join us however the rest of us had an amazing stay.

Awelfryn is a beautiful house, really well appointed.

We had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The views are absolutely gorgeous and the beds extremely comfortable. Thank you

Our whole family has enjoyed our holiday at Awelfryn and would certainly recommend it to other families.

The children loved the hot tub and were in it every evening.

The facilities available for use in ‘Awelfryn’ went beyond the description, we had taken towels for the hot tub (we did use our own), & lots of kitchen items ( tea towels, oven gloves etc) & really we did not need to.

The house was beautiful & catered for our every need. The views were amazing & the outdoor furniture was positioned to make the most of these views.

Lovely house, meticulously kept, with wonderful views over Cardigan Bay.

Our second visit to this house, and will return again. Excellent.

Lovely house, very clean and tidy.

short walk to the beach and town. Really enjoyed our stay.

Brilliant stay in a lovely place.

Thank you

Beautiful house, great location with sea views .

Lovely touch with the welcome pack, flowers and champagne . Can’t wait to return.

We absolutely loved our stay at Awelfryn, such a good spot to admire the castle and seaviews from the patio.

The house was spotlessly clean, and the lovely welcome pack an added bonus. It was perfect for a family reunion and the hot tub was a hit with everyone. Perfect to explore the area, and make new memories. Thanks !

Beautiful house, beautifully furnished with view of sea.

What's not to like! We all throughly enjoyed our week, grand daughters loved the Hot Tub. Very pleasant and understanding owner. 5 stars all round.

Owners were lovey.

House wonderful. Added extras were a nice touch and made it very welcoming. The additional bottle of champagne and chocolate was a generous and kind token. Location is very good with stunning views. Everything was wonderful.

Top class accommodation, in a wonderful location overlooking the sea.

A Fresh clean welcome with some delicious goodies, a real treat. A very comfortable large, airy house with lots of special features . Quality items used in the house , nice dishes, cutlery (Robert Welsh) our favourite …home from home. A family fridge with ice maker, a great cooker with added grill pan etc . Lots of thought has been given to making the house comfortable for guests. The owners live near by , unobtrusive but there to support if need be. Would like to return again, so much to see and do in the area.

A beautiful house in a beautiful location.

All amenities catered for and all the homely touches which makes this a great setting for families to be together and just relax against the backdrop of the hills and sea. The owners were there to check everything was satisfactory which it was 100%. On the doorstep is everything you need all within walking distance.

Had a lovely week staying in Awelfryn.

The property was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The outside area was perfect for enjoying a BBQ and relaxing in the sun, The hot tub with views of the sea and countryside was a welcome relief after days out exploring the surrounding areas.

Fantastic house!

From the moment we walked in it felt like home from home . The welcome basket was a lovely touch and the house spotlessly clean . We were a party of six adults and one small child and found we had plenty of space. The hot tub was great and would recommend paying the extra to have it. The house shouts quality and luxury , the beds were all comfortable and bedding and towels lovely . Location great across from the beach and views amazing . Handy for Porthmadog and Pwllheli. Owners friendly and helpful . We would definitely rent again without hesitation .

Awelfryn is a lovely spacious house, well equipped and spotlessly clean.

It's just a couple of minutes walk to the beach, most of which is dog friendly so we and our dog had some lovely walks along the beach. The hot tub is a bonus and great to relax in at the end of the day. A lovely house to stay in.

Lovely house in a spectacular spot.

We had a wonderful time at Awelfryn over Easter. From the welcome pack and beautifully clean interior, to the sea views and lambs gambling on the hillside at the back of the house, we absolutely loved it. Criccieth is a lovely place to wander around, the beach and castle are a short walk away from the property and our children were perfectly happy to explore the rock pools every day with a bucket and spade. However, we did manage to explore a bit further afield with Portmeirion, Black Rock Sands and Caernarfon castle all just a short drive. Big thank you to the owners for their communication and much appreciated extra touches that made our holiday so special.

Lovely, comfortable and well maintained property.

Beautiful location and great owners. Very helpful and supportive with any queries we had and equipment to the highest of standards. Would definitely recommend to others in the future. Thankyou

What a gorgeous house and spot!

It was perfect for our stay. Thank you so much, we have had a fantastic holiday!

Thank you for our wonderful stay in your Beautiful house.

Everything we needed was here. The welcome pack was so good! What a great location with Amazing views.
