Llys Owen

It ticked all our boxes.

Sociable kitchen just need to bring own oil and seasonings etc it has all the utensils and tea towels including cafetiere. Two large sofas in the sitting room, we loved the video/dvd player. Sea views from every room, comfy beds, fluffy towels, plenty of free parking. Doggy safe garden with outside tap and hose. Close to the shops, pubs and beach with doggy friendly areas. For us it was a perfect home in a perfect location.

Llys Owen was a lovely place to stay.

The house is spacious, comfortable and well appointed and was just right for our Group. Great views across Cardigan Bay and good amenities nearby in Criccieth and Porthmadog. We really enjoyed the house and the holiday.

A lovely property, full of character.

Great views from the house. Handy for the beach and the village facilities.

An altogether lovely place to stay that could be improved by a couple of simple things.

The outside seating made more inviting, having salt pepper and tea bags in the kitchen, a supply of loo roll. Thanks

The accommodation was excellent for families.

All the rooms are attractive, the period detail is impressive, the house is spacious and the views in many rooms are stunning. ( for general viewing).

Lovely property with great views over the beach and castle.

Only a couple of minutes walk into the village centre with good restaurants and cafes. Two allocated parking spaces around the back are very handy. Spacious and comfortable rooms with very good bedding - some noise from passing traffic and trains but we slept very well!

Absolutely beautiful property, spacious, clean and very comfortable.

The only minor negative for us, as we are not used to it, was the slight smell of dogs in the living room, possibly from the rug near the fireplace. A bit of ventilation helped a lot. Also, there was a travel cot provided but for anyone with babies, we would recommend taking a thicker travel cot mattress with you. This was a brilliant property for any group of 6 to 10 people and we would definitely stay there again!

Great location and lovely property that met our family needs of 6 adults and 2 infants.

Unable to pick up any terrestrial TV channels and this was an issue when we came back at nite and could not watch/catch up with the days news and football as World Cup was being played. Internet service worked ok. There are a few to negotiate from the car parking area to the front door that we weren’t expecting. Great decor and high standard throughout- definitely return.

This was one of the very best holiday homes we have stayed in.

The position was great with gorgeous views and short walk to the beach and town. The facilities were excellent, the washing machine, cooker and dishwasher all appeared new. Bedding was lovely and fresh. The side garden was great for the children and offered shade in the evening. We would thoroughly recommend it.

A girls group getaway to celebrate a big birthday the house provided amble room for our group size of 10.

Views of the sea to wake up to, hearing the sea whilst enjoying sitting in the garden. A ideal location to a short stroll to the beach or shops/ places to eat. House facilities were excellent and many of the group said would book the house again. Welcoming messages from the owner and accommodating our every need. A very memorial weekend. Thankyou

Beautiful 5 Bedroom home, with double reception.

Framed View over Criccieth castle and surrounding beaches. Easy walking making distance to all that Criccieth offers. We had a lovely relaxing break and will be coming back.

Ideally situated in Criccieth for the beach and local shops and pubs, Llys Owen is a wonderful place.

Clean, comfortable and full of character with fantastic views of the seafront and beyond. Good walks can be found in the area, and was ideal for our two dogs. We encountered One small problem whilst there, which was dealt with in an efficient manner by the owners. I would certainly recommend Llys Owen and would not hesitate in returning.

From the moment we arrived when the house was warm and welcoming we knew we had chosen well.

There was everything we needed and more.The beds were very comfortable,towels were a great size and hot water was always available. We parked 4 cars easily and the views from all rooms were stunning.We will be back for a return visit I’m sure.

We had a great holiday in this beautiful house.

We always looked forward to coming back from a days walk to relax in front of the spectacular views. The house itself was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

Our family enjoyed staying at llys 0wen.

It is a beautiful house . It was well equipped with everything one needed except one small thing ( oven gloves). Shops ,pubs ,beach closely convenient . Highly recommended

A fantastic stay at Llys Owen for nine adults.

It’s very spacious and comfortable. A well equipped kitchen with loads of hot water and amazing heating. For a large house it was warm and cozy. Excellent location with an easy walk to Criccieth. The views were spectacular of the castle and the sea. Can’t wait to return! Thank you

Fantastic period house for our extended family trip.

The sea views were incredible and the location perfect for walking into Criccieth, to the beach and the wonderful Dylan's restaurant. Very well equipped and the cleanliness was excellent. A full size ironing board would have been handy with us all going to a wedding but that is the only minor niggle! Highly recommended!

What a really lovely stay we have had in Criccieth.

The property is perfectly placed with everything within walking distance, the beach, shops, restaurants, cafes, pubs, coastal walk, castle all easy to get to, making it ideal no matter what you'd like to get up to each day. The property itself is lovely, comfortable, spacious and well equipped, with everything you'll need whether it's cooking and dining together, relaxing and enjoying the views before and after a day out in Criccieth and a comfortable nights sleep. We couldn't fault anything and loved both the property and Criccieth. If we were coming in a large group again, we wouldn't hesitate in staying here again. I would also happily use Skyes Cottages for any other future holidays. It's been smooth from start to finish, even when we wanted to extend our stay, which they accommodated for us and was easy to do. So I can't recommend Llys Owen and Skyes Cottages enough.

As a family of 8 adults one toddler and one baby and a dog, the house worked really well, plenty of room for everyone.

We tended to eat in the kitchen, which made it a bit cosy as table was really not big enough. Dining room had plenty of room, but table was used for games! And as a work area. Bedrooms were spacious and well equipped. A very enjoyable holiday. Criccieth is a lovely town to stay as everything is within walking distance. It is also easy to get to other places along the coast.

We loved the character of the house, with its original features and spacious rooms.

We also loved the views of the sea and the mountains, and the short distance to both the beach and the local facilities.

Llys Owen is a beautiful property.

Every room has a stunning view of the sea and coastline. The beds were extremely comfortable and the house had everything we needed. The gardens are well maintained and a lovely area to sit and admire the views. We were lucky with the weather and could have done with a parasol as the garden is in full sun all day. The only thing lacking in the property are bins in the bathrooms (need them for ladies sanitary products). Overall, we had a wonderful holiday and we are already planning to return. Magnificent!

Had a lovely Short Break at Llys Owen.

This was a lovely old house with a really interesting history. The house was very clean and comfortable - slept like babies in the lovely beds and peaceful bed rooms. The sea views were spectacular and we spent most evening in the lounge sitting in the sun room area watching the sea, trains, and life go by. Ideal car parking space that was big enough for our estate car or two smaller cars easily. Centrally located and a short walk to everything you want in Criccieth and an ideal base for exploring the wider Llyn Peninsular.

Great place, perfect location.

Will definitely be returning

Gorgeous house with amazing views and some great family spaces.

Showing it's age in places but that's unsurprising after experiencing the weather it's lived through. A bigger toaster and frying pan would make breakfasts easier for large groups. Some of the shared bathroom locks were also very stiff.

This was the second time staying at this property so I was more aware of needing certain items for safety.

Bath mats/ shower mats . I also brought some rubber mats for the frount steps . I do feel more grab rails would help . Apart from that it's a lovely place and spotless. Beds are so comfy giving a very good night sleep . No problems with showers or heating . Views are to die for !!!! First thing in the morning looking at the sea ....so calming . Thanks to the owners..

The house was great I would recommend it I would stay there again Thanks

Very impressive property with lots of space and amazing views of the ocean and castle.

Lovely house.

Very clean,beds very comfortable and warm. So much room. Everything was spotless on arrival . Kitchen facilities brilliant. Cooker and hob working well. Owner got in touch about the heating but all was fine apart from the day of leaving however I wasn't going to get in touch with the owner for this,but I knew they would have helped. I have two dogs however one likes to escape. Frount garden was the only area for my two dogs,I had to place furniture to the side of the house to stop them getting through. There is another very large frount garden however this is not safe for dogs as the garden goes to the top of the fence on the main road where dogs could jump of. Apart from this it was amazing and it won't stop me booking again next year.Thanks

This is a fantastic property that offers a lot of space in a truly stunning location.

We will never tire of the views over the bay and over towards Criccieth castle. The decor is very tasteful and the property has been finished to a high degree without detracting from the period features. We were a family of 8 plus a dog and felt there was ample space in this property. We definitely plan to return.

Absolutely great house in a fabulous location beautiful views from the front overlooking the lovely beach, easy to walk to everything.

One problem is the fridge is far too small for 10 people especially if eating in, taking your own food etc and need to find room to chill the essentials like wine !!! Overall a brilliant weekend had by all and would definitely return.

Great house with loads of space and fabulous views.

For a house that takes 10 the fridge is far too small and it would really help to have a tumble drier. We had washing draped everywhere

We had a wonderful time in Llys Owen, the house is full of character, large and spacious lots of original features.

We enjoyed Criccieth and will certainly be back.
