Guests say

Dartans is a highly praised holiday cottage with stunning sea views and direct beach access, ideal for family gatherings and pet-friendly holidays. Guests consistently commend its spaciousness, comfortable furnishings, and well-equipped kitchen. The serene location and the opportunity to observe seals add to the charm of this property. While most reviews are glowing, a few suggest room for improvement in cleanliness and maintenance.

Most guests found Dartans to be spotlessly clean, contributing to a comfortable and enjoyable stay. However, a minority of reviews mentioned issues with cleanliness, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, which slightly impacts the overall impression.

The location of Dartans is consistently lauded for its direct beach access, proximity to local amenities, and stunning sea views. Guests appreciate the peaceful setting and the opportunity to see wildlife, such as seals, from the property.

Guests describe Dartans as a comfortable and spacious property with hotel-quality beds and a homely feel. The ample space accommodates large groups without feeling crowded, and the sea views enhance the overall comfort.

The property is well-equipped with a variety of amenities that guests find satisfactory. Some guests suggested improvements such as additional power sockets and updated decor. The lack of a pool table and BBQ were noted, but these were minor points in otherwise positive feedback.

While guests have not specifically mentioned gifts, the property provides a range of thoughtful touches, such as binoculars for seal watching and a variety of games. However, as there is no direct reference to gifts, a score cannot be provided.

About this property

This delightful detached property is situated in the coastal town of Penrhyn Bay, an equal distance between Llandudno and Colwyn Bay. Boasting stunning sea views and private access down to the beach, this spacious holiday home is a great base for families or a group of friends with plenty to keep everyone entertained during their time here. Inside Dartans is a large sitting room with a cosy woodburner, and a dining room both with full-width glazed patio doors, allowing you to enjoy the open space with a view of the sea whatever the weather. In addition to the sitting room there is a snug, which children can make their own after a day out on the beach or watch their favourite programmes on the Smart TV, or a place where adults can retreat and relax whilst enjoying a refreshing drink. The well-equipped kitchen with double ovens allows for the chef in your party to cook up a gastro meal. The kitchen also has a breakfast table and window seating providing you with an area for you to gather to chat about the day ahead, or simply you may wish to just take in the breathtaking views and try and spot the seals. There are five comfortable bedrooms all on the first floor, a king-size double with en-suite bathroom, two double rooms, and two twin rooms, along with a family bathroom. Outside there is a large patio where you can sunbathe, enjoy privacy and tranquillity reading a good book, or just relax and watch the world go by on the garden furniture. The North Wales town of Penrhyn Bay has a sandy beach, shops, a pub and a church, and you will be spoilt for choice with the many places to visit nearby, including Llandudno with its Great Orme and Little Orme, the resorts of Colwyn Bay and Conwy, and also within reach is the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. A charming holiday home with plenty of space for everyone in your party.

  • Alex

    Very spacious. Unusual not to have a welcome gift (typically milk and cake or a bottle of wine in others we have stayed in which is a nice touch). Could do with another dishwasher for the size of house and more utensils.

  • Martine

    Has everything that you need at a self catering property. Was very clean. You can never get bored of the view. There were 8 adults ranging from 38-75 and met everyone's needs. If I had to find any faults it would be to replace the dining table in the kitchen. It has definitely seen better days. Looking to book again for next year.

    We loved it so much we have booked for next year.
