Guests say
Ty Bryn - Nefyn is a well-loved, spacious cottage with a large garden, situated in a peaceful rural setting close to the coast. Guests appreciate the property's extensive grounds, proximity to coastal paths and beaches, and the stunning sea views. The upstairs living room is a highlight, offering a relaxing space with good views and a library of books. While some guests mention issues with heating and a musty smell upon arrival, the overall sentiment is that the cottage is a charming and welcoming place for a holiday in North Wales.
Reviews indicate a range of experiences with cleanliness. Some guests found the property to be very clean, while others reported issues with mustiness, mould, and a lack of deep cleaning. The presence of dead insects and stained linen in some reviews suggests room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, proximity to the coastal path, and beautiful views. Guests enjoy the rural setting and the convenience of nearby amenities, such as a village shop and a quality restaurant. The scenic surroundings contribute to a peaceful and enjoyable stay.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the property warm and welcoming, with extra blankets and hot water bottles adding to the cosiness. However, some discomfort is noted due to a musty smell, dampness, and issues with heating regulation. The upstairs living room is frequently mentioned as a cosy retreat.
The cottage is well-equipped for cooking and dining, with a well-stocked kitchen and large dining area. However, guests have reported maintenance issues such as problems with heating, non-functional sockets, and a lack of logs for the wood burner. The garden's openness and heating system complexity are also noted.
While some guests mention a welcome pack of Welshcakes, there is insufficient information to determine a consistent level of thoughtfulness in terms of gifts or additional touches. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that such amenities will be provided for every stay.

The views are incredible. Garden was excellent, would be great if the rear square bit was able to be closed in so dogs could not easily escape.

The lounge downstairs and beds were extremely comfortable. Unfortunately we could not use the upstairs lounge as too dangerous for the dog to go up the open staircase. I have to say that if we had known before we booked Ty Bryn that the dog was NOT allowed in HIS BED in the BEDROOM - we would not have booked. This was NOT mentioned in the write up and only became clear when reading the Visitors book at the property. It was not ideal as our dog has anxiety issues. I can understand that some people may not adhere to them in their own beds but if you are accepting up to 2 dogs in the property then there should NOT be exclusions as to where they can go. We also had the gardener turn up on the Friday morning at 8am, we were still in bed and were alerted to a huge noise that sounded like an aeroplane overhead but in fact it was a man in orange clothing with a leaf blower walking past the bedroom window !! We did get an apology from the owners but felt that this should not of happened and to make sure it is done on changeover day.

Lovely setting. Unfortunately it could have been cleaner. It needs some TLC . Reported oven cooker knob broken and another knob not working if tried to turn them on popped out spring fell on floor. Black mould in few places in kitchen . Have photos of this (can provide if required). Glasses and crockery in Welsh cabinet in dining room smelt musty.
