    “Awel Y Grug is an outstanding property.”

    The space available is amazing and the overall decor is lovely. The gardens, front and rear, are large and enclosed, perfect for our dog, and the driveway is big enough for many cars. There is a sea view from the back of the house, so from the bigger bedrooms upstairs and from the lounge and kitchen, which was unexpected as it’s not mentioned.

    The space available is amazing and the overall decor is lovely. The gardens, front and rear, are large and enclosed, perfect for our dog, and the driveway is big enough for many cars. There is a sea view from the back of the house, so from the bigger bedrooms upstairs and from the lounge and kitchen, which was unexpected as it’s not mentioned. The kitchen diner is enormous with an 8 seater dining table, a sofa and all the cooking equipment needed. The three bedrooms upstairs are furnished to a high standard. We didn’t use any of these as the cottage was only for my elderly parents (we were at a nearby campsite) so they slept in the downstairs family room which they said was comfortable. The downstairs wet room is also useful for anyone less mobile. The game room wasn’t used but looked a great space for families with children. The lounge is nice, with comfortable sofas, a big TV and a wood burning stove. There was a welcome pack of tea, coffee, Prosecco, and Elderflower Juice waiting for us on arrival which was a lovely touch, and much appreciated. I can’t really think of any negative things to say about the property other than my parents struggled to get any hot water out of the taps for things like washing and washing up. The shower was fine though so they used that. The cottage is a 6 or 7 minute drive to Aberdaron.
