Swn y Mor (Sound of the Sea)

We had the best hol in your beautiful warm spacious house.

Comfy bed, beautiful views. Loved the games room. Fab walks from the house. Thank you for our fab holiday x

We had a lovely break and would recommend Syn y Mor, it's a nice house clean and well maintained and good location.

Suggested improvement would be a mattress topper for all the beds and some new soft pillows.

We had a lovely week.

The sea views from the lounge, dining room and bedrooms are lovely. We didn’t feel like we had to be out all the time enjoying the views as we could while reading in the lounge. The sofas and beds are really comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need. The WiFi is good. Criccieth is lovely, we’ve visited loads of time and would love to stay at Swn y Mor again. Thank you.

Great facilities, really enjoyed our stay.

Only criticism would be quality of mattresses. All glad to be back in our own beds last night . Also rooms are big enough for king size beds. Patio door downstairs is very difficult to lock, but that could be the heat.

Another perfect stay, we absolutely love it here and can’t wait to return next year!

Criccieth feels like our second home.

Lovely house, great sea views, easy parking on road outside house

The house was in a lovely position, perfect for the town, seafront, buses and railway station.

Great for visiting local towns and walking the Wales Coast path. The house was very clean and very well equipped with everything you need. A nice welcome pack to. The mattresses are a little on the soft side and the door into the garden was a bit stiff to open, but nothing that can’t be fixed. Lovely views from the dining room and bedrooms. Great communication with Angharad. A great stay and would definitely recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Swn y Mor.

The location is fantastic with the little high street and beach within a short walk from the house. The property was exactly as described and very comfortable for 6 guests and 2 dogs with plenty of space. We didn't really utilise the downstairs room or garden as we were a bit unlucky with the weather but they looked good too. Criccieth is a great base to visit the area which is fantastic for walkers and is generally a very dog friendly area. Thanks so much.

The property was lovely, spacious, good sized rooms, everything was well equipped & little touches of some Welsh cakes, orange juice, milk & biscuits for when we arrived.

My daughter especially loved the air hockey table.

Great holiday house in a great location.

Lots of kids toys with a separate living room downstairs.

Our second stay has been just as good as the first time!

We’ve already booked up again for next year. We love the house and Criccieth. Only one problem, the heat dial on the main shower seems to be stuck so the water is always boiling hot. Apart from that, our stay was perfect. We can’t wait to return,

Spacious and comfortable property, conveniently located for the town and beaches.

Everything you could ever need is provided, and we would definitely return to this property.

Just back from a lovely stay with our four children and dog.

Beautiful house and great location. Only a couple of observations/suggestions that would have been helpful for us as a family and going forward for other guests: Sharper cooking knives. Was tricky cutting anything really. Higher/no ceiling pendants! Hubby is 6’1” and must have banged his head on landing, hall and kitchen about 20 times! Chest of drawers in single bedrooms. Back sliding door really tricky to open/close. Thank you for a lovely stay, would highly recommend for anyone wanting a base to explore North Wales.

The second time we’ve stayed in this lovely house, it’s a stunning property, beautiful views, clean and tidy, nothing is too much trouble for owner, absolutely love this house!

Thank you so much for another wonderful stay.

Lovely bright and clean accommodation, and well located property.

Plenty of room for 3 generations. Weather could have been better but plenty to see and do nearby. Not complaints but a few things to note - there was no DVD player that we could find, the toaster left side doesn’t latch properly and the Dyson main body falls off the handle part (we tied it on with ribbon!). Think knives need sharpening too!

This is our 3rd visit here.

All good the bed in the front bedroom is improved on last year. The only thing to improve is some new sharp knives.

Very convenient location with a view of the sea.

Plenty of room for the 5 of us. 2 problems occurred which were very quickly resolved. We had a very good week.

What an incredible place!

We have just returned home and have already booked for next year. The house is clean and spacious. It’s close to the beach, shops and pubs. We really couldn’t fault it. We look forward to visiting again.

House is beautiful, spotlessly clean,everything you need and more….

Very cosy In a great location, near to beach and shops , we had an amazing Christmas , decorations were amazing and made us feel very welcome … there is nothing not to like about this house

Swn y Mor is a well-appointed house, the only thing that let it down, and this is quite a big thing, is that the mattresses are very cheap and very uncomfortable.

Every time one turned over in the bed it flet like being on a ship at sea, there was no support at all - I appreciate that you don't want to put an expensive mattress in a rental property but there must be a happy medium to having one that is the absolute basic.

This was our third stay at this lovely spacious house.

The house was spotlessly clean with all the equipment that we needed for our stay provided for. Swn y Mor is in an ideal position, just a few minutes walk to the seafront and Criccieth town centre and a lovely dog friendly beach 10 minutes walk away. It is also convenient for visiting the many other tourist attractions nearby. Thoroughly recommend this house.

As others mentioned, a well situated property, clean, of good size and comfortable.

Having stayed elsewhere in the Snowdonia area this our first time to stay in Criccieth rather than just as day visitors. We really enjoyed the friendly residents, their shops and range of eateries. Downside of the property for us that with three of us ranging in height from 5'11" to 6'5" was that many ceiling lights were very low and we kept knocking our heads on them. That is why we would not return to this house.

The weather was excellent for our stay which helped, but the property was so well equipped and located I think the holiday would have been great no matter what the weather

This was our 2nd stay here.

Lovely house love the extra room downstairs ideal for teenagers. The only comments are a lack of sharp knives and the beds in the front bedrooms were not comfy perhaps time for some new mattresses. Other than that great place to stay so convenient for beach, shops cafes etc. I'm sure we will be back again.

Tremendous property, especially for a family of 6.

We enjoyed 2 weeks of absolute relax and refresh... Brilliant! The cleanliness of the property was the best we've ever known, and the advantage of two sitting rooms, (one of which has fabulous games and is two floors below the bedrooms) meant that our 3 year old grandchild (and her chosen parent or grandparent!) could rise early in the morning and not wake everyone else up before the sun rose! The bed mattresses are soft and the house well furnished, even the weather was excellent on several days... raining mainly only at night. Internet speed is very good - 2 of our party had to have zoom meetings with colleagues, no problems and great bandwidth. Social media access seems to be unavailable through internet, but was easily catered for by good 4G signals on our phones. Sea views from the rear and a 3 minute walk into the town, with two fabulous cafes, a fabulous restaurant and a further 5 or 6 minutes to the beach... Brilliant. Already booked our return.

This was our second stay at this house.

It's spotlessly clean, cosy and had all the equipment we needed for our holiday. The house is in a good position, near to the beach and Criccieth town, and within easy travelling distance to Snowdon and many other attractions. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

A beautiful house in a fabulous location.

We loved our stay, thank you. The house has everything you need and is very well presented, while we brought cleaning products, cloths, dishwasher tablets and condiments with us, these were all helpfully and thoughtfully provided - which is rare in our experience. The games room on the ground floor provided numerous board games and table hockey as well as an Xbox, which was a welcome surprise, for entertainment which is great for inclement weather days, which luckily we didn’t have. The house has all mod cons you would need and is tastefully decorated, the one minor gripe was the WiFi wasn’t great but a week off of social media was actually another highlight of our stay! The location is perfect for our needs with beautiful beaches close by (Abersoch, Harlech) as well as the hills, rivers and mountains of snowdonia on your doorstep. Overall, we had a fabulous holiday and the house definitely played a big part in that, and I thought the price was fantastic value for money. We will be back!

Excellent value.

Lovely accommodation. Blessed by wonderful weather.

Lovely property, clean, well equipped, beautiful views.

Great location, can walk to shops, pubs, cafes & beach. Good base to Snowdon & walks. Only downside was 9am check out, far too early. Overall would recommend this property.

A lovely property.

Warm and toastie even though blustery outside. Decorated for Christmas which we appreciated. The property was spotless and close to all the peninsula offered. Would stay again. Many thanks

The house was lovely.

Spotlessly clean with everything we needed and more. We will definitely book this house again

The house was clean and tidy, and was well equipped with plenty of space.

Being within easy walking distance to the beach and Criccieth town centre was also a bonus. The only down side was the very uncomfortable bed in the en-suite bedroom, something other guests have commented on. Also felt that there should have been an earlier time for checking in and later for checking out. Having to clean a large house like this and be out by 9 am was something of a challenge. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Very satisfied with Swn y mor.

The holiday home was very comfortable with everything you require.

Wonderful views lovely to be able to look across the sea. We had a lovely relaxing holiday.

We had the most amazing week at swn y mor!

We didn't want to leave!! The house is beautiful and was well equipped with everything that we needed. My two boys loved it. Thankyou.

A lovely holiday home has everything you need.

Very comfortable and it was lovely to look out the window and see the sea every day. Weather could have been a but better but that’s one thing we couldn’t choose. Ideally situated for visiting other places and site seeing.

Really good property very clean good accommodation very nicely presented really happy we booked this property in a quiet road plenty of parking but only a couple of minutes to shops and a couple more minutes to the beach.

Very good views of the sea, mountains and across the bay. If we come to this area again would definitely book this property would have no problem recommending it.

The house was very comfortable and in a good location.

Parking was easy, right outside on the road. The house was warm and well laid out with wonderful views. There was lots of space. The owners were great on communication and very responsive. The mattress in the front double bedroom does need replacing. A steamer would be a great addition to the kitchen. All of the ceiling light fittings are very low and some of them are sharp, spiky metal. If you are tall you will hit your head repeatedly! We had a problem with the lights in the dining room and lounge as they flickered very badly. Even with the negatives we would still go again as the positives outweighed them.

It was great location and very comfortable and well equipped and stocked dwelling.

Didn't need to buy anything extra. Great welcoming touch to have milk in the kitchen. Only minor issues. The bed in the master bedroom was creaky and mattress too soft. When two people shared you were both colliding in the middle when you turned over... Likewise in the other bedrooms too. Also the toilet seat needs fixing in the en-suite. Had to turn off all the plug-in air freshners as it is not suitable for all customers, especially for those with asthma and allergy. Late check-in was unexpected despite the Covid as when we booked it still had 4pm on the website and to be informed 48 hours later to 6pm and 9am check-out was very disappointing indeed. Especially when nothing had changed as far as Covid status was concerned...

We had a lovely holiday.

The photos don’t really do it justice - the house has an amazing sea view. The location is perfect to explore Criccieth, Porthmadog, Portmeirion and beyond. The house was spotlessly clean and the facilities were excellent.

Beautiful house in lovely village with stunning views.

Home from home!

Great house in a great location to explore the North Wales Coastal Path and the Snowdonia National Park

A comfortable garden chair would be quite nice.

No books anywhere in the house for rainy days, books on local walks in the area.

Lovely area.

Would visit again.

The house in Criccieth was a perfect base to explore Criccieth itself but also the Llyn peninsular and the Snowdonia national Park.

An amazing holiday in a beautiful holiday home.

A lovely property with plenty of space and well equipped.

The location gave us easy access to our favourite places on the Llyn Peninsula .It was nice to be able to walk into Criccieth to the beach, the castle and lovely places to eat. We had a great holiday.We were just short of a couple of comfy chairs to sit in the sun in the quaint back garden. Luckily we had some fold up one's with us.

The house was lovely, the views amazing and as a real bonus the weather was warm and sunny.

We have had a brilliant holiday. Thankyou.
