Galwad Y Mor

This is a perfect property in a perfect location, so I can definitely recommend this place!

Very spacious, sympathetically modernised, a high standard of furnishings and very comfy beds. It made us smile when we looked around on our arrival, as it was so lovely. The only thing I didn’t like was having to strip beds etc on checkout day. My heart sank when I read this in the welcome book. The property seems too beautiful for this to be appropriate, and let’s face it, stripping beds is not a favourite activity for most folk, especially on holiday.

This house is absolutely wonderful and a stones throw from the beach.

Lovely and spacious, with 4 very comfortable bedrooms. 3 couples, 2 babies and 2 dogs easily accommodated. Having the back garden area was brilliant especially on beach days as we could come in and hose everything off before entering the house. A great sized kitchen to prepare and cook, it felt as though we were home. High recommend - we loved this place.

Really enjoyed our stay here.

Property was fantastic it easily accommodated 7 of us and being a stone throw from the beach was a huge plus.

Fantastic accommodation finished to a high standard and in an ideal location just a stones throw from the beach.

The kitchen facilities were brilliant and nice bbq area out back too. Highly recommend this lovely house.

Absolutely perfect stay @ Galwad Y Mor once again.

Clean, well maintained accommodation with everything we need and plenty of space for our family. Definitely a home from home. Lovely location, excellent local amenities, friendly locals and so peaceful. Will be booking to stay again, cannot fault it!

Really well laid out spacious and well equipped.

The decor and fittings are classy and excellent quality. The location is perfect and the restaurants in the town are very good. Lovely break. Thank you.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay as a family of four with our two little boys (12m and 2yr).

The property was one of the best we’ve ever stayed in. It was impeccably clean, with very comfortable beds and sofas. The kitchen is fantastic - so well equipped with everything that you could possibly need, and plenty of storage space. The location couldn’t be better with easy access to the beach and the local fish and chips and ice cream shops. I honestly couldn’t fault it and we can’t wait to return. Thank you!

I can honestly say this is one of the best properties we have stayed at in criccieth and we have been visiting for 12 years.

The property had everything you need. Beautifully maintained and very clean. We had a lovely week here and will definitely return.

This house is amazing.

Comfortably fits 8 people in all aspects. The owners have thought of everything, location is perfect with amazing views. We visited over new year and it was a perfect pick

This is the 4th year we have spent Christmas at this property.

The location is the main feature for us. It is so close to the beach so makes beach walks every day just perfect. The house is warm, comfortable and has most things to make life really cosy and welcoming. Looking forward to a fifth year.

A lovely home and a great place to stay, the town is so beautiful and quieter than the busy tourist areas.

We saw dolphins, birds galore, shoals of fish and there might have been a whale off the coast but we didn’t have binoculars at that time lol. The dogs had a great time and the garden entrance made it easy for maintenance. The house had spacious rooms, feel clean, warm and well put together. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We have just returned from a wonderful week in this wonderful property.

It is a beautiful house, with everything you need on a daily basis. The furnishings, decor and style is lovely. The location is perfect - step out of the door and the sea front is less than a minute’s walk - look out of the windows upstairs and you can see the sea and the castle (castle lit up at night was beautiful) - it truly is a wonderful house in a wonderful location. For family time it was great for us to have the open plan layout downstairs, where we could cook and chat to family at the dining table and we also had fun evenings playing cards at the table too. I never want to come home from our holidays in Wales and after holidaying in this area for over 50 years, it never ceases to amaze me. We will definitely book to stay here again!

Fabulous holiday home with four spacious bedrooms.

Ideally located close to the sea front and not far from the High Street. Kitchen fully equipped (except for an egg poacher - not important!) No compostable bags for the food refuse bin, but lovely neighbours provided and owner advised. No trouble parking outside, though may be busier in height of summer. Would recommend this house .

Our family had a fabulous time in Criccieth.

The house was really well organised and equipped. There was a small hiccup when beds were not made up as we had requested but this was sorted within a half hour! It was great value for money and had plenty of room for 6 adults and 2 children without feeling busy…we loved the round dining table..so welcoming! BBQ outside was great as was outdoor seating and we were delighted that there was a lot of attention to environmental issues ..very organised recycling..we have found past holidays so annoying with no system for recycling. The “cherry on top” was being able to walk the few steps down to sit on a bench and watch the sunset.

We had a fantastic time staying at Galwad Y Mor, 6 adults and one child.

It’s a gorgeous house in a great location and had everything we needed. You can be on the beach in less than a minute and at the pub/shops in just a few minutes. Parking is on street but even in the height of summer we didn’t have any problems finding a spot. There’s lots to do in Criccieth, this was our second holiday there - the beach, castle, walks, local shops, art gallery, pubs, restaurants and cafes - if you don’t feel like exploring (the beautiful Wales Coast) there’s plenty to do.

The presentation and how well the home was equipped was exceptional.

The ease of parking and having the high street and beach front just on the door step were also great. Taking a cup of tea to a bench on the seafront, highlight of the break.

A well presented, clean, well equipped and comfortable property.

A lovely welcome tray in the kitchen was greatly appreciated and enjoyed. We had a fantastic week and the owners were superb when we had a little problem with the hot water and it was sorted within 30 mins. The location to the beach and to the centre of Criccieth is excellent. Thank you for a great week in a lovely house.

Absolutely beautiful, clean and well maintained home with lovely views of the sea and Criccieth Castle from the top floor.

Close to plenty of local attractions and the best fish and chips (Castle) and ice cream (Cadwaladers) we’ve had in a long time. Comfortable beds, a choice of excellent bathrooms and all we could need provided in the large modern kitchen. Perfect! Looking forward to staying here again soon. Thank you!

Lovely house, we were very lucky and had fantastic weather.

The round dining table was fabulous for 3 generations to eat together and play many games in the evening. The patio area was great for having drinks and also storing our paddle boards. The only negative is the main bedroom gets very light early in the morning as blinds don’t block out the light very well, but this was a small price to pay for waking up to sunshine each morning and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Amazing place to stay with everything you would need.

Brought tea towels, toilet roll, hand soap, washing up liquid etc and none were needed as all were provided. Gift basket was a lovely touch. Getting parked outside the house is challenging but we parked up near the railway line or by blue china and both were a 40 second walk so not a big deal. Beach basically less then a minute away, dogs can go on the beach pass the life guard hut. Best bit was top floor hall window was clear view to the castle it was lovely seeing that lit up. Furniture was comfortable, TV in each room which pleased the kids. There is a lovely walk along the seafront if you go towards the castle and visiting David Lloyd George's grave and walking down the river was a lovely morning out.

Really lovely house by the seaside and a brilliant view of the castle from the top floor.

Absolutely immaculate and comfy.

Lovely house in a glorious location.

Stayed for a week with 3 friends and we had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend.

What a lovely find!

Beautiful home within a stones throw of the beach. Lovely and clean, beautifully firnished and overall felt like our home. Lovely little community and the best fish n chips at Castles. Although we spent a lot of time exploring it was always lovely to step back into Galwad Y Mor. Cannot wait to come back ❤️

Outstanding property.

Very homely and has everything we needed for our holiday.

Beautiful setting Settee could do with replacing in the living room large rip and black marks Nothing that would ruin a beautiful location and pleasant home

“Despite the modern amenities and convenient location, our stay at this holiday cottage was marred by several issues.

A significant security breach occurred when the owners entered unannounced, posing an escape risk to our dogs as the rear gate was left open. The interior revealed a lack of cleanliness with hidden debris and a dusty, malfunctioning fire. The sofa was in poor condition, stained and torn. The owner’s aggressive response to a genuine oversight was unprofessional. Despite attempting to address concerns, communication was ignored . Uncomfortable beds having to chase for the front door key that should have been on site having to strip our own beds as if we stayed in a hostel not a premium property further diminished the overall experience. It’s unfortunate, as the property has potential, but our stay was overshadowed by these significant drawbacks.”

We loved the house, it was clean and full of everything we needed.

The layout was perfect for us being fully open plan, we could easily all sit around the table for food, games, jigsaws..perfect. The location is spot on, literally at the beach and then five minutes the other way you're in the main street or the castle. We had great weather for October which obviously helped but we really loved it. I have to say the downstairs toilet with the sink in was loved by all! There were rather a lot of instructions upon leaving that we've not had at any other house we've stayed. Stripping all the beds, putting all towels and bath mats in a laundry bag and even putting out the bins. We all appreciate that it's a large house to clean but we normally have a 6/7bedroom house for the whole family and have never had this to do. We always clean round and take out rubbish and food etc, this just seemed a bit much. That said it didn't diminish any enjoyment it just made getting out for 10 a bit of a rush!!

We had a wonderful weekend.

The house has everything you could possibly need. It was so clean and stylish. The location was excellent. Very close to the beach, pubs and cafes. We would definitely come back. A really superb place. Thank you also for the lovely welcome pack that showcased Welsh products.

Lovely property in a great location.

Everything you could need for a relaxing stay.. Would definatley stay here again.

Excellent!

A beautiful house in a beautiful town ideally located close to the beach and many cafes, bars & restaurants. Very well equipped with everything you could need. Tastefully furnished, roomy bedrooms, nice bathrooms with high quality showers. Lovely enclosed garden with gas BBQ- ideal safe environment for 6 month puppy! A great holiday- will definitely return & recommend. Very generous welcome pack! Diolch

Very spacious well appointed property, close to the beach and amenities.

Plenty of parking.

A delightful property with very spacious accommodation and very modern decor.

Generous touches where all bedrooms had their own tv, hairdryer and torch. Kitchen was really well equipped and outdoor area clean and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone visiting this area.

Lovely property, refurbished and upgraded to a very high standard, excellent amenities, supplied with plenty of cutlery, dishes, glasses, etc to support full occupancy, two walk in wet rooms ,one with bath, nice outside paved area with seating, Would highly recommend and will definitely return,

A stunning 5 star property.

We were moved here at the last minute as original property in Harlech had a problem. Thanks to all that organised and allowed this to happen. This house had a great location, beautifully presented and so comfortable. Would return with no hesitation to this amazing home.

Great house with everything we could have wanted.

Excellent position close to the beach and the amenities. Very good base for visiting areas of interest. The hamper, the owners' welcome and their willingness to make our stay as pleasant as possible were greatly appreciated.

This cottage is fantastic!

! Really well equipped with high quality furniture, beds , bedding and appliances ! This place is not the usual , we all said it felt like a home and could quite happily live here ! This cottage is FANTASTIC !

Beautiful house.

immaculate! We’ll equipped. Perfect for our family holiday.

Beautiful place everything you could need at the property would definitely stay there again

We had a great week.

Superb property with everything we needed.

Very clean newly renovated property which has lots of lovely features and is fully equipped for all your needs.

All the bedrooms are a good size and the layout has been very well thought out. It is extremely close to the beach at Criccieth (2 minutes walk or less than 10 minutes walk if you need the dog friendly end). Plenty of on road local parking and close to some lovely cafe and restaurants. We would definitely recommend it and had a great time. North Wales itself is extremely pretty with a wide range of things to do and some spectacular scenery within Snowden national park.

Thank you for letting us stay in your property, parking was a bit of an issue we didn't give a 5 for the comfort as felt having spot light everywhere and no option of a lamp it didn't give a comfy feel we actually left early from the property, the shower in main bathroom changed temperature and scolded me - if it had been my daughter that would have been a real issue We look after various high end properties and never have any of them asked the guests to do the dishwasher, bins or strip the beds this is normally part of the changeover service The welcome basket was a lovely touch and could not fault how clean the house was

Gwaled Y Mor was a beautiful, immaculate, very comfortable, well equipped holiday home very near the sea.

We had a lovely week here with 2 excited young children (4 and 2) and an excited dog! The house is a 2 minute (if that!) walk to the beach and castle. The outside patio area was private and big enough for the children and the dog to play and had a nice patio dining set for eating outside. Would recommend Dylans for a lovely meal and Cadwalladers for delicious ice cream. We also paid a visit to The Children’s Farm Park near Harlech, which was really good with a lovely play park and soft play. The children were able to feed the lambs and cuddle the baby goats. All in all we had a lovely holiday and would recommend both the house and Criccieth.

We had a great time and really appreciated the quality of our holiday home.

It was spotlessly clean, and very well maintained. The location was perfect for us. We were made to feel very welcome and relaxed. The owners made it clear they would help if needed, but gave us all the space we needed to feel at home. Every room was nicely decorated and the whole family were very happy. I would certainly recommend this holiday home to friends. Thank you!

Place was clean and comfortable , nice and modern decor, only issue was we didn't find the secret drawer under the hob until the day we where leaving to find the bottle opener !

!

The property was spotlessly clean, exceptionally well equipped and exceeded our expectations.

Thank you for your generous welcome box, the tea and cake after a slow journey was gratefully received. The proximity to the beach meant that we could actually hear the waves at night and the view of the illuminated castle was stunning. We feel very fortunate to have found such a gem of a property. We would absolutely book again and hope to return soon. Mrs Callaghan

Loved our 3 nights in Galway Y Mor.

Everything modern and new. Super comfy beds and very good quality linen. Kitchen very well equipped with a large American style fridge. Great location very near the seafront. Loved eating at Dylan’s restaurant, also at Tonnau Restaurant in a hotel a couple of minutes walk from the holiday let. Would definitely recommend and would stay again when in the area. Very generous welcome basket too, many thanks.

Great, quiet place

Absolutely gorgeous house and fantastic service from Sykes!

Would definitely book with both again!

We really enjoyed our week in Criccieth in this beautifully renovated house, equipped with everything we needed.

It’s location made a great base to explore the area as well as being a stone’s throw from the sea. The owners went out of their way to check everything was ok and were very helpful. Highly recommend.

The property was well furnished and equipped.

Everything was of a high standard and the owners had thought of everything that was required. The location is very good, easy walking distance to the high street and just a few steps to the seafront. Excellent base for a holiday.

Beautiful house in a fantastic location.
