Mrs Thompson
December 2021

“It was a lovely stay.”

We left a message that the shower door was not fitting properly and the morning before we left it came off it's hinges totally but given the quality of the let we're sure that this will be addressed.

- Mrs Thompson, December 2021
Mr Reading November 2021

“Spacious, comfortable, warm, clean, well equipped and of course a fantastic view of the beach, castle and sea.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

- Mr Reading, November 2021
Mrs Potter October 2021

“Lovely property, most of all very clean”

- Mrs Potter, October 2021
Mrs Buchanan October 2021

“Everything we wanted.”

Central position, off street parking, good WiFi, pet free. The views were wonderful and the underfloor heating a bonus. A grab rail in the family bathroom shower would be useful and a hook or shelf in the ensuite shower for putting soap/shower gel. Otherwise fabulous.

Mr Billard June 2021

“Nice well-equipped house with mostly* great views, but unfortunately noisy at times so it didn’t make for a relaxing holiday.”

If I’d known there were going to be building works next door I wouldn’t have booked, but by the time I was made aware it was too late to do anything about it so we just hoped it wouldn’t cause any problems. However, building started at 8am or just before most weekdays, and largely consisted of loud banging and sawing until around 4-4:30pm, so although we planned to visit other places during our stay we were more or less forced out of the house regardless. Although the view directly facing the sea was unspoiled, you couldn’t unsee the unsightly scaffolding when looking left on the balcony, nor ignore the traffic accessing the public carpark next door to the house, although the latter wasn’t an issue after about 6pm. Last but not least, the house backs onto a railway line, but to be fair this is mentioned in the property description. What isn’t mentioned is that the first train is 6:45am apart from Sunday’s, then hourly, and it didn’t fail to wake us up. Then we snoozed til the next one, then weekdays had to get up when the builders started. Glad to be home for a rest, although still enjoyed the rest of our stay at weekends and after 5pm...

- Mr Billard, June 2021
Mrs Williams June 2021

“The view was perfect and although the accommodation is in a car park this didn’t affect us at all.”

Spotlessly clean and really well equipped. We would return if it hadn’t gone up £400 next year

- Mrs Williams, June 2021

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Ty Glyn. Please do keep an eye out for your chosen weeks...the pricing is constantly changing. Property Owner
Mr Thackray June 2021

“Lovely house in a wonderfull location with great sea views which change every day with the weather .”

Everything you could possibly need for your self catering holiday. However be prepared for the 6.45 am train every morning if you can sleep through that your a better person than me. .Also at the moment you have the builders next door if the train doesnt wake you up the builders will as they arrive about 8.00am banging and sawing and playing loud music all day it will be nice to go home and have some peace and quiet .

- Mr Thackray, June 2021

We are extremely happy that you loved the house and the fantastic sea views. Criccieth is a great location with its 2 beaches, castle and wide selection of shops and places to eat and drink. We are sorry that you found yourself to be disturbed. We have made special note of certain things on the website to alert anyone who might be looking for a more quiescent setting. Property Owner

“We had a truly wonderful week in Criccieth, which to a large extent, was afforded to us by the wonderful accommodation that we had at Ty Glyn.”

Everything provided was clean and tidy and the facilities met our every need. No hesitation in recommending this place and we are looking forward to booking it again

Mrs Baldwin September 2020

“I would like to say that it was terrible so no one else will go there but I have to very honest it was as near as perfect as it could be.”

The view even on a very windy and wet day was spectacular. The accommodation had everything you could want. Had a small problem with the WI'FI but Emma and son where round in 5 minutes to resolve the problem. Will definitely return. Jane & Trevor

Mrs Skirrow May 2019

“The accommodation at Ty Glyn in Criccieth was truly exceptional!”

This is our second visit and we will be booking it again for next year. I really must add that whoever cleans and prepares this apartment for guests is just wonderful! Everywhere was sparkling clean..... something which is very important to me! The apartment is homely with nice touches and very spacious. I couldn’t think of a single negative. Thank you to Menai Holidays, the owner of the property and especially the cleaner (s)....... see you next year!!!

- Mrs Skirrow, May 2019
Ingrid Richter Nov 2018

“Very modern, well appointed, well equipped and good quality appliances.”

We loved sitting in the lounge area and looking out to sea watching the changing landscape of sea and clouds and some sunshine! The house is perfectly located for walks on the beach either side of the castle and inland.

- Ingrid Richter, Nov 2018

The property

Wow, what a view!

This sea front holiday cottage has been carefully designed and furnished by the owners to create a modern, spacious but cosy holiday house.

Designed to maximise the amazing sea views, this is an upside down house with 2 beautiful king sized bedrooms downstairs, one with en-suite and a family bathroom. A large hallway with plenty of storage cupboards with stairs leading up to a wonderful open living area comprising of kitchen, dining & living room with vaulted ceiling and underfloor heating for those cooler evenings. "A cool, contemporary holiday house with amazing sea views and only a 30 second stroll to the beach as well as a short stroll to plenty of great restaurants, shops & cafés!" Patio doors lead onto a large veranda with uninterrupted sea views straight out over Cardigan Bay!

The perfect place to sip a cool glass of wine and watch the sun go down over the beach. If you can drag yourself away from the wonderful views, you can stroll along the promenade towards the castle, wander down the coastal path which is almost on your doorstep, stopping on the way for a delicious ice cream from Cadwalader's, or meander around the shops and cafés on the high street which are within easy walking distance.

In fact, you could always park up the car when you arrive and leave it there - so much to do right on the doorstep!

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.

Note: At the back of the house by the kitchen there is a railway line. However, far from causing disturbance, it seems to add ambiance to the house as you listen to the trains pass on their way down the Cambrian Coast.
Note: No children or infants under 12
Note: Please be advised that there will be ongoing building work taking place next door to Ty Glyn from April to the end of December 2021
