“We enjoyed our stay at The Towers Castell the location overlooking the beach is perfect.”

As stated in another review the outside of the property does not look very inspiring but the actual property inside is spacious, bright, nicely laid out and decorated. We had previously stayed at ‘The Captains Rest’ further up the road a couple of years ago hence why we returned to that area of Criccieth. It’s so refreshing being able to enjoy the views of the sea from the windows and hear the sea lapping against the shores when in bed. (pity the windows were not that clean but ...

As stated in another review the outside of the property does not look very inspiring but the actual property inside is spacious, bright, nicely laid out and decorated.

It’s so refreshing being able to enjoy the views of the sea from the windows and hear the sea lapping against the shores when in bed. (pity the windows were not that clean but understand its hard being close to the seaside and avoiding the seagulls). As others have stated there needs to be some sort of blinds on both bathroom windows, as you feel open to onlookers. The Vacuum needs to be replaced as it does not pick up and we were missing either a coffee machine or a cafetiere. Overall we enjoyed a comfortable 5 day stay and the weather was just fabulous!

“On arrival we were a bit worried by the outside of the building as it looked a bit unkempt also the hallway and stair carpet looked grubby BUT what a lovely surprise when we entered the flat!”

It was big, bright and airy and the views were AMAZING. We found over the week that a lightbulb on the landing was flashing, the tumble drier didn't work and the vacuum wasn't very efficient. (Maybe a maintenance book in the flat would be helpful so visitors can report issues without them being included in reviews) There were also a few water stains to the wall and ceiling where there had been a leak but they didn't interfere with our stay, I assume they are drying out before redecoration. The main bedroom and living spaces are huge, the beds and sofa and chairs nice and comfy, everything you need is available although small point, bring your own towels as those provided are not enough for a week and quite small, BUT THE VIEWS!! The Towers is brilliantly placed for a short walk to the Castle and town and is literally across the road from the beach, parking (in June) was never an issue. It was also easy access to the rest of the Llyn peninsular and all the fabulous beaches there. All in all, provided you don't mind the stairs this holiday flat is a lovely place to stay, did I mention THE VIEWS? I would definitely return there, we had a lovely holiday in Criccieth with the BEST VIEWS thankyou

“The two main reasons for my 3 star rating are that I don't believe the property should be advertised as 4 star and that reasonable suggestions have been made for improvement over the years, which haven't been taken on board.”

Many guests had mentioned milk being provided, however there was none left for us on arrival unfortunately. In 2019, people praised it being beautifully decorated but it clearly needs a touch up now. The walls are grubby in places, some cracks have appeared and the bath in the ensuite has had an awful job done of the silicone . While the flat looks nice, it lacks 4* quality. The fittings etc feel cheap and it feels like the space hasn't been used well. A 2021 review mentioned there was no blind in smallest bedroom; this is still the case in 2026. Blinds in the other bedrooms are almost useless as they are white and let the majority of light in - bring an eye mask. The same with a privacy screen on the bathroom windows (especially the main bathroom) as they are over-looked, as well as the lack of any hooks at all in the main bathroom. Where are you supposed to dry your towels? A review from 2022 mentioned that there is no over-bath shower in the en suite and that still hasn't been remedied. There evidently was one before but it hasn't been replaced. One shower for up to 5 people is not enough. The location is great; we loved watching the waves out of the windows but the only place to sit and do this was in the kitchen. We had a real mixed bag of weather while we were there. The wind made concerning noises in the turret! While we had a nice week in Criccieth, I don't think I would return to this accommodation. Castle Fish and Chips - excellent but loooong queues Dylan's - good food but pricey Prince of Wales - Fast service and good home-made food Cadwaladers - gorgeous views over the sea in the cafe. Great Ice cream!

“Love this place !”

Spacious and comfortable and love the angles and irregularity of some rooms as this is, in part, a loft conversion. Views are just fabulous looking across the beach and the sea to Snowdonia, Harlech and the Llyn Peninsula. Sea is about 10 paces from the front door. High Street is a pleasant 5 minute wander. Right on the edge of Snowdonia, so many gorgeous places to explore are just a short drive or ride away. Kitchen is well equipped. Cannot praise this property highly enough. Will definitely be back.

“Absolutely stunning location.”

The apartment is gorgeous and very spacious. The only downside was all the stairs to get to it lol. Would stay here again

Sue August 2025

“We loved our stay at The Towers.”

The apartment was clean, tidy, well presented and well equipped for our family of 5. We loved the amazing views from every window and the proximity to the beach. Criccieth is a lovely town. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

“This property is totally unsuitable if you have children as children on holiday tend to run around and make a noise.”

So when the person that "pays the rates", as she claimed is banging on your door at 10.30 saying she cant sleep due to the noise then you know its a badly cheaply done conversion that has had no strengthening and sound proofing, this would fit with the internals, very basic, window with broken latch, (dangerous if you have kids, as we did), shower door that falls off every time its used, windows that you have to clean on the outside before you can see out of them. Not recommended at all.

- Timothy, August 2025

“A lovely holiday flat , we were so happy when we arrived as it did meet our expectations from the web site details .”

Spotlessly clean ( credit to cleaners) , good quality facilities with an amazing shower . As previously mentioned in reviews the shower room would benefit from a window blind ( had to use towel for my own comfort) and some hooks and shelves to put toilet bag etc . The beds are very comfortable with good linen in very spacious bedrooms , details didn’t state a hairdryer in each room so I had brought my own . The kitchen had everything we needed and we spent lots of time in the windows watching the sea and the world go by, a great location. Slight negative we are told what to recycle in the flat but then not where to take it to. The carpets on the stairs leading to the flat do make you feel a little apprehensive as to what your accommodation will be, but obviously this is beyond your control just a shame really

“The property was very clean and spacious, will definitely be going back.”

We had a great time, and we could see the dolphins from the window an added bonus.

“What a fabulous location !”

Overlooking the sea front and views of Criccieth castle framed by the bathroom window. Accommodation was spotless with modern furnishing, beds were comfortable with plenty of clothes storage. Kitchen was clean and sufficiently stocked utensils & crockery. I would only suggest 2 improvements for the owners : Ovengloves for the kitchen, and hooks on the back of the bathroom & en-suite doors. Overall, a perfect holiday stay ! Thanks.

Lorraine April 2025

“This is a lovely apartment, smart, comfortable and beautifully kept and with great views across the bay and to the castle.”

A perfect location for exploring the Lleyn Peninsula and Snowdonia. We would definitely come again

- Lorraine, April 2025
Davina October 2024

“This was a lovely property to stay in for the week.”

The views were amazing - with sunrise and sunset from the windows. The only two issues we had was there is not a blind on the window in the single bedroom - we needed to improvise for the week. Secondly there were not any information about how to control the heating (the leaflet there was for an old controller). Due to the mild weather we could work around it. Otherwise a wonderful property and great base to explore Snowdonia and North Wales.

“This was our second time stopping here and we will be back for a third time.”

Its a lovely clean flat with super views from every window. The only thing I would say is the master bed could do with a new mattress and it would've been nice if the stairgate was fitted upon arrival.

Damson August 2024

“Absolutely loved staying at the Towers - Castell.”

It was wonderfully clean, spacious and welcoming. The village itself didn't get overly busy, which is good if holiday crowds aren't your thing, and being that close to the beach was heavenly. Being able to watch/hear the sea was a lovely way to have your morning tea. The rooms were lovely and spacious with sufficient storage, very clean and well maintained and the kitchen had most of the basics (no pizza tray though!). The USB plug in the bathroom (on the end of the light under a cover) with the shaver plug sockets was a nice touch. The WiFi coverage was pretty good and there was enough coffee/tea provided for a few days so you could just walk in and have a cuppa as soon as you get there - with the addition of a pint of milk in the fridge to welcome you. The food from the local chip shop (Castle Fish and Chips) was outstanding and the staff were lovely, but be prepared for long queues and it isnt cheap, but not overly expensive either and is good value for money. The ice cream shop (Cadwaladers) was also good, very helpful (I have food intolerances) but the portion sizes weren't great for the price. There is loads to do without having to travel miles (but you can and we did), and we are really happy we chose to have the Towers as a base. The only drawbacks were the low points on the ceiling (my husband cracked his head a couple of times - but the listing did warn of this!) and the 3 flights of stairs which were a bit much after doing an 11 mile walk. Price wise we found it very reasonable, we stayed for 2 weeks in the summer holidays and it didn't break the bank. Overall, I am very happy with the stay we had and happy to recommend The Towers - Castell as an excellent place to stay.

Caroline July 2024

“We had a great stay at The Towers.”

A good base for exploring Snowdonia. The apartment was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Criccieth is a lovely place to stay, peaceful but enough there to keep you going. We ate out at The Poachers Restaurant and Dylans which were both lovely. There are about 4 chip shops, Calawalders for desserts and cakes and we made use of the Bakery most days for our lunches. We didn't find fault with anything and had an excellent holiday.

- Caroline, July 2024
Edgar June 2024

“We spent a wonderful holiday in Towers Castell.”

The location next to the sea is perfect for recreation and start to trips. We didn´t miss anything in our spacious and well aquipped appartment. It was very clean, we also enjoyed the welcome gift milk & cake. Last year the both of us fell ill and couldn´t go on holiday. Special thanks to Sykes Cottages and the property owner for the understanding and kindly contact.. We were very happy about the change of booking! We hope to come back again. Kind regards!!

“Two points.”

A beautiful location in Criccieth and because of the excellent walking around. However, I (6. 0") and my wife 5' 2" both banged our heads on the sloping ceilings, in her case causing her to fall to the ground. As the ceilings and the slopes are both white the edges are hard to see and something to highlight their presence - a marking or colour band - would help avoid future injuries. On the minor point, a coffee filter or cafetiere would make the morning coffee easier to make (and less gritty!) and a couple of heat resistant table mats would protect the rather nice new kitchen table (we used plates but others may not be so careful)

- Richard, December 2023
Trevor September 2023

“Lovely break, apartment was warm, spacious, clean and quite well equipped.”

I am just over six foot and had very few issues with ceiling height, just need to be careful with doorway into kitchen/living room, otherwise restricted height was where you would expect it to be in top floor apartment. Also had no issue with lack of blinds on bathroom windows, people would need to be hanging from roofs to see in. Points noted - no Cafetiere, pictures seem to show one but it was the teapot, would have taken our own if we had realised. iI there were more mugs, glasses and cutlery dish washer would have been run less frequently. A few books, jigsaw puzzles and games may help to keep you amused on wet day, However overall really nice, thanks.

- Trevor, September 2023
Susan September 2023

“The views from the apartment were lovely, apartment was spacious and clean.”

There is no elevator to get upstairs, so this is something to consider if you have difficulty getting up stairs. Contrary to the listing, there was NO handheld shower in the en suite bathroom. We booked for 4 people to stay and all of us staying had to use the one shower. That said, the one shower was very good, although a fairly small cubicle. The beds were beyond uncomfortable. We had a terrible first nights sleep, and had to improvise and put cushions and pillows on top of the mattress in order to be able to get any sleep for the remaining 5 nights. Kitchen is pretty well set up, with everything we needed to cook and eat in the cabinets. Toilet paper provided not enough for the time booked, since it was not on the list of items to bring and we were told on enquiry we would not be given any more, we had to go buy more. I would suggest this be added to the list of suggestions to bring with you, and also make information available on where to find things like rubbish/trash bags in the apartment. Based on the lack of sleep due to uncomfortable beds we would not stay at the Towers Castell again. Based on the misleading information about the hand held shower option I would question the amenities listings given for other Sykes properties.

Elaine August 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful apartment with stunning views.”

We saw dolphins and porpoises most days and loved the sound of the sea from the entire apartment. As you would expect with a top floor flat, the ceilings are a little low in places and there are lots of stairs but that wasn't a problem for us (although no obvious fire escape other than the main stairs). The flat was generally clean and well maintained although the shower door was broken. There are no books or games in the apartment but there were two hairdryers (not on the listing). More hooks in the bathrooms would be very useful, and more than two dishwasher tablets for a week's stay would have been appreciated! Blinds on the skylight windows really are required too - the bathrooms are a little overlooked and sleeping in bedroom 3 with no blind was tricky so we had to make our own window covering. All in all though it is a lovely place to spend a relaxing holiday.

- Elaine, August 2023
Karen June 2023

“Lovely apartment.”

We really enjoyed our stay at The Towers - Castell. It was much more spacious than expected, lovely decor and very comfortable. It was spotlessly clean and the location couldn’t be beaten - right across from the beach. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

- Karen, June 2023
Carol June 2023

“This property is in a great location, with lovely views along the coast in both directions.”

The furnishings were very tasteful and gave a calm ambience. Beds were very comfortable and everything inside the flat was very clean. A downside for some would be the number of stairs as it's at the very top of the house (hence the great views). Parking at the roadside was never a problem. Prior to booking we were worried as some reviews mentioned the sloping ceiling being an issue as we range from 5'7 to 6'2, but we found it fine however you do need to be aware of the headroom in a couple of places. Would not hesitate to rebook this property!.

“The property was clean & comfortable .”

Unfortunately we had problems with the dishwasher not working & no handbook/ instructions. We also had difficulties with the keysafe (very stiff & sensitive) & only one key for us all . Low sloping ceilings were an issue & all of us are short females under 5'3" ! Minimal equipment in the kitchen .

P December 2022

“I went away for Christmas with my two children, we had an amazing time, the property was fantastic, it was very clean and comfortable.”

. the owner had gone all out for us and put Xmas Dec's up as well as thought of everything, even down to foil for cooking. We will definitely be back in the future. Can't recommend this place enough. The only negative I have is there are lots of stairs so maybe not suitable for someone that would struggle.

Paula September 2022

“Excellent property, superb location in a fabulous town, plenty of places to eat/drink, superb scenery, great location for exploring the further delights of the Llyn peninsula as well as Snowdonia not that far away.”

The apartment was very comfortable and spacious, the quirky attic location was charming, though you had to watch your head ! Although the apartment could officially sleep 5 I would imagine that 5 adults may feel cramped in the living areas ( due to height restrictions and layout ) and further crockery / cooking utensils would need to be provided. The en-suite to the main bedroom also needs to have the shower attachment re-instated and shower screen added to make it a fully functioning bathroom. As we were only a party of two none of this posed us a problem, but may for larger parties.

- Paula, September 2022
Paul August 2022

“We had a lovely stay in Castell.”

It is a wonderful apartment. Just a couple of comments... The description said that the en-suite had bath with hand-held shower but there was no shower. The windows in the bathrooms could do with blinds at the windows, particularly as the shower room is potentially over-looked by the next door building. When cooking for 5 a couple of extra pans and/or a wok would have been useful - minor niggle. Apart from that would have loved to have stayed longer!

- Paul, August 2022
Rachel July 2022

“A really great holiday apartment in a brilliant location - cool and airy with everything you could want in terms of crockery and utensils.”

Would thoroughly recommend. A couple of easy wins would make it even better - hooks on backs of bathrooms doors, a clothes horse ( not everyone wants to use a tumble dryer!) A couple of chairs to use on beach perhaps. A blind on small bedroom window (though this was easily remedied with a towel) There's ample room for a washing machine so please put one in - having to queue for the washing machine took me back to student days and unloading other people's laundry because it's left in there all day and night wasn't ideal. Overall though, really great accomodation. Thank you

“Great apartment with lovely sea views.”

I was very impressed with this apartment, spotlessly clean, comfy and spacious The beach is over the road spent last few day's on it.Criccitth it self is a lovely place .Good ice cream shop and the Prince of Wales pub has good food.If you want more shops porthmadog is worth a visit .shops in criccieth not always open. I will definitely book this apartment again. Thanks Julie

Philip June 2022

“Our second stay and we still love this place for its central location, good size and wonderful views.”

The drains in the main shower and bathroom sink need attention before water damage occurs from a flooded shower tray. We did report this on our departure day. Look forward to returning again soon - thank you !

- Philip, June 2022
Alison April 2022

It could do with some towel rails in the second bathroom and a little more kitchen equipment and tableware, but overall the property was excellent.

Philip October 2021

“Great location.”

Thank you for the milk and Welsh cakes. The propriety is spacious and well equipped. The stairs may be a challenge for some, particularly on arrival with luggage to carry. There was no Visitors book. We would like to have left a glowing review for others to read. Criccieth has so much charm, it is much more than a main road between Porthmadog and Pwllheli. Excellent comms from Menai Holidays. We will use you and Castell again. Thank you.

- Philip, October 2021
Mark October 2021

“A great apartment on the third floor of a grand seafront building.”

Well furnished, decorated and equipped with pretty much everything you’ll need. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back! The only things we’d add would be some privacy film on the bathroom skylights as they’re slightly overlooked, and some extra towel rails in the bathrooms to help dry out wet towels

- Mark, October 2021

Right in the beach and close to the town for shops.

Victoria August 2021

“Lovely large, clean flat in excellent location with great views towards the sea and Castle.”

Access to washing machine and tumble dryer very helpful, and generous supplies of foil, washing up liquid and dishwasher tabs, which we appreciated. No blind or curtain on the skylight in the single bedroom made bedtimes with a young child very hard, because there was no way of blocking daylight. Towel rails would be helpful.

- Victoria, August 2021
Louise July 2021

“This was our second stay at The Towers.”

The accommodation was perfect for our needs. The preparations made for Covid compliance made us feel secure and happy to enjoy our holiday. Everything was spotlessly clean. We can’t wait to return for the beautiful sea views and fantastic location.

William October 2019

“The apartment was great with lovely views across the sea and down the coast towards Pwllheli.”

It was very clean, one of the best we have been to. Only comment I would make is that a gate at the top of the stairs on the landing would be a good idea, as it would be easy for a child especially to miss their footing around the corner of the corridor to the bathroom and fall down.

- William, October 2019
Bethan October 2019

“This is the best rental we've ever had in the area.”

We absolutely loved it. Very clean compared to everywhere else we've stayed in, comfortable modern furniture. Spacious and cosy rooms. Super comfy beds, lovely bed linen and throws. We appreciated the complimentary tea, coffee, welsh cakes and milk, but even more so the dishwasher tabs and liquid, the bin bags and cellophane. We always end up buying these just for a week's stay and we can't take them back with us as we live abroad. A few things need to be added in terms of kitchenware to cook for a family of 5 (list left in the flat), but mostly we had what we needed. Beautiful view, but as someone else has mentioned, the noise from the sea and the wind (under the roof) in bad, windy weather might bother a light sleeper, but it was not a problem for us. Perhaps a deck of cards and a couple of universal board games would be something to add too.

- Bethan, October 2019

Rebecca July 2019

“We had a fabulous time and can't wait to return!”

Listening to the waves and looking at the views out of every window was the highlight for us. It was decorated to a high standard and extremely comfortable. We took out 1.5yr old and i didn't need to worry about anything. Aldi and tesco were a 10 min drive away and the nest heating system kept my mind at peace that he wasnt going to get cold at night. The milk and welsh cakes on arrival were a nice touch. 5* holiday!

- Rebecca, July 2019
David June 2019

“This is our first booking with Sykes Cottages but we were not disappointed.”

The apartment was exactly as described. For anyone wanting somewhere quiet, overlooking the sea, with easy access to shops and restaurants, this apartment is perfect. There is a lovely coastal walk (part of the National Trust Wales Coastal Path). And, the only sound we heard at night was that of the waves lapping on to the beach!!

The property

Modern, bright and quirky Castell is a third floor apartment on the sea front in Criccieth - we just love the skylight in the bathroom that seems to frame the castle view!

There are lovely views of the ocean and coastline and you are within walking distance of everything - you can easily forget the car for a few days should you choose!

The Owners have taken great care to ensure the apartment is well equipped, stylish and comfortable for your stay. A charming little seaside town, Criccieth is a charming seaside town and a firm favourite with our visitors - once you have been here, you will return time after time.

With its imposing castle, interesting individual shops, restaurants, cafes and bars, Cadwaladers' ice cream, and a chip shop reputed to be the best for miles and miles, Criccieth really does have something for everyone, right on the doorstep! Close by there are so many things to do, with some of North Wales' best attractions just a short drive away.

Go paintballing, horse riding, surfing, golfing...

or, if you prefer something more leisurely, simply take a walk along the coastal path.

Ride through stunning scenery by steam train, or stroll around the Italianate village of Portmeirion! Ardudwy, Castell and LLyn are three recently renovated apartments in The Towers, sleeping 11 in total, which can be let individually or all together, making them ideal, flexible holiday homes for your Welsh getaway.

About the location

CRICCIETH

Porthmadog 5 miles; Portmeirion 8 miles; Abersoch 15 miles.

Often described as the 'Pearl of Wales on the shores of Snowdonia’, this delightful seaside town is situated just 5 miles from Porthmadog. The town’s 13th century castle perches majestically on a rocky outcrop, dominating the skyline and offering superb views of Tremadog Bay and the Snowdonia mountains. Watersports enthusiasts will be delighted by the two beaches, whilst walkers and bikers are spoilt for choice by the proximity of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Stroll along the beaches, watch porpoises playing in the surf, or relax in the various pubs, restaurants and tea rooms, sampling the famous Cadwalader’s ice cream. Further afield, attractions such as Portmeirion’s wonderful Italianate gardens, the Ffestiniog railway in Porthmadog, Harlech Castle, Caernarfon Castle and the beautiful beaches and renowned golf courses of the Llyn Peninsula are all within an easy drive.
