...we hunted, but didn't find it!! A very peaceful place, with only the sound of the stream and birds. The beach at Aberdaron is lovely. Local facilities are good.

even if it needed a bit more time on the cleanliness there were spiders in cobwebs in the kitchen and the skirting boards could have been cleaned a little better. There is possibly a wasps nest in the upstairs rooms as we counted 20 around the window this needs checking before any children stay there. The property although mainly flat on the ground floor is definitely NOT disabled friendly as the living room has 2 steps from the hall and 2 steps from the kitchen anyone with walking issues would not be able to access this room as the steps are quite high The bedrooms all had ensuite and were a really good size and bedding towels etc were provided as was coffee and milk the only thing I purchased was washing up liquid as it seemed a waste using the dishwasher. the owner provided lots of information which was most welcome the only thing lacking was instructions for the wood burner Not everyone has one of these and I had no idea where to start I would recommend taking shopping with you as the only store we found was a Spar in Aberdaron and it was very expensive. I have been to Aberdaron several times over the last 30 years and love the area and walks on the beach would I go again probably not the property was too big for just the 2 of us but bring the family and I am sure you will love the cottage and the surrounding area.

Wonderful spot with so many Beaches and Walks close at hand. House was lovely, very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Saw a Buzzard in the garden and Badgers a 15 minute walk from the house.
