Mr Lake
May 2021

“The cottage was absolutely lovely.”

Every detail thought out to make it comfortable and well equipped. The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated. Cleanliness was outstanding. Its position in llanystumdwy near Criccieth was brilliant within 100 metres of an outstanding river walk and easy access to the Welsh coastal path. Don't forget to try the local pub across the road and the Prince of Wales in Criccieth. Will definately stay here again.

Was dissapoint Ed with the comfort of the living space no comfy couch to sit on, plus could not understand why the cottage had a cream carpet when pets had been in was a little dirty and did smell of dog not the easiest to keep clean and fresh

“The cottage is well-situated as regards a frequent bus service.”

We found the buses very useful when walking stretches of the coastal path. Just disappointed that the service in more remote areas seems to have suffered from £cuts.....this is such a shame as we loved the Llyn Peninsula!

“Entering the property through the front door is fine, however on first arrival entry is made through the back door.”

There is entry along a path that goes down the side of the property and this is overgrown, very narrow and dark which does not create a good first impression. The trees and branches need cutting back. It is shame as the cottage is lovely and cosy and very well equipped. It was extremely clean with lovely fluffy towels and warm bedding.

“Exceeded Expectations”

Exceeded Expectations Comment: Lovely place to stay, particularly recommend the walk alongside the river heading up stream from the bridge - some great spots to swim and we frequently saw dippers.

The property

Situated in the pretty stone village of Llanystumdwy, linked closely to David Lloyd George, is Pogle's Wood.

A two bedroom stone cottage and once part of the Lloyd George Estate, Pogle's Wood lies close to the seaside towns of Criccieth and Pwllheli.

Being only a short drive from the heart of Snowdonia, this cottage is an ideal base to tour the Llyn peninsula, where sandy beaches and magical villages can be discovered.

While for the more energetic, exhilarating mountain walks can be enjoyed.

Pogle's Wood has been furnished to welcome you and your pets as we understand pets are part of the family and enjoy a holiday too.

The lounge has a comfortable settee and easy chairs to relax in, a TV with excellent signal reception, open fire with a back boiler, for which we will provide some logs etc, to complement the electric heating and Wi-Fi.

For more formal evenings there is a dining table which comfortably seats four adults. The kitchen is stocked with a range of electrical appliances to make it a real home from home.

A welcome pack of milk, tea, coffee, sugar etc will be waiting for you after your journey.

Outside is an open, lawned garden, for the dogs to stretch their legs and have a sniff around. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, each with a double bed and storage space, more than adequate for holiday clothes. The bathroom has a curved cubicle with an electric shower and complementing sink and toilet, which has been recently refurbished.

Locally, there are a number of signposted walks and the Lloyd George history to uncover, an excellent local bus service from early in the morning to late at night and a regular train service from Criccieth.

And at the end of the day, the dog friendly and community run Tafarn y Plu pub, is literally on the doorstep!!

Pogles Wood is a wonderful place from which to explore Wales, at any time of year.
