Clean, well equipped and plenty of space for everyone to share. Great showers, warm and comfortable bedrooms. Good location for exploring and ideal that an Ice cream shops and good restaurant are in very close proximity. Perfect view of the castle. Peaceful location and an excellent garden area with plenty of bird life.
Lovely sized family house with a large well kept garden. Excellent location for stay home days to visit the castle and beach or day trips out to Portmeirion, Sygun Copper Mines, walking in Snowdonia or on the Coastal Route and the Ffestiniog Railway. My daughter even organised a Kayak trip from Trefor Beach

Thank you for your comments we will forward them to the owner today.
Bryn Gwalia was perfectly placed. The property has views out of the windows of criccieth castle and the beaches are a 5 min walk away.We were blessed too to see dolphins in Treath beach ( by lifeboat hut) in criccieth!! What a treat that was.The house was beautifully clean & presented very well. There are 2 large fridges and a moderate sized freezer for storing small essentials.The beds are firm & en-suite to 2 double rooms were adequate & clean too. Toilet roll supplied.The garden was spacious, but have some nasty hawthorn trailing in garden which 1 of our grandchildren cut their knee on, which bled quite nasty. And also the outside furniture (benches) were rotten and were too unsafe to enjoy sitting on in the sunshine.The driveway into the property takes a very sharp turn left. Be aware of this, as a neighbour parks right on that left hand turn, which makes it extremely narrow.All in all this was a super setting, with stunning views and we found it to be a very quiet area, very peaceful as there is no through traffic on the sea front.We would definitely come again. Thankyou for making our family holiday a memorable one.

Thank you for your detailed and informative review, we are delighted that the whole family enjoyed their stay.
We've stayed at this property twice now. The location is so convenient, two minutes from the beach and shops and about the same from the playground. It's a large property with comfortable beds and lovely bed linen, three large showers and a huge bath. There is a large garden which the children loved playing in. The utility room is large with a separate tumble dryer and washing machine. However we won't be booking for next year and have found an alternative property in Criccieth. Firstly parking and access - the parking is enough for three cars and is at the rear of the property, but to get to this you have to go up a side road and then a gravelled track. Admittedly we have a large vehicle but on several occasions we couldn't get to the house without asking a resident in the side road to move their car which was met with a very unpleasant attitude. To get out we had to try and reverse down the track past all the parked cars. The house itself is lovely but could do with a bit of attention, some of the windows don't shut properly and the locks on some of the doors and one of the ensuites did not work. Lack of knives in the kitchen. None of them huge issues but the parking was too much of a stress for us.

From the Owner:- We also have a large car and have not experienced problems parking at the rear of the property but acknowledge that access can be tight for very large cars. The parking at the rear of the property is provided for convenience as sometimes it is difficult to find a parking spot very close to the front of the property at peak times. The windows do shut properly and there are plenty of knives in the kitchen.
If you've ever visited a holiday cottage before, you most likely have seen a guestbook in the property for guests to leave a review for others when they arrive. Each of the following comments was lovingly left by people just like you in the guestbook left at Bryn Gwalia.
This lovely holiday house is in a really good location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Criccieth.
We had a wonderful stay in Criccieth with a great mix of strong winds, rain and brilliant sunshine.
Lovely house that suited us well. We found stuff to do in all the various weather days. The kids especially enjoyed the Cadwaladers ice cream parlour!! Thank you
Lovely week, great accommodation. Also, we had a big binge on the Big Bang Theory!
Beautifully clean, spacious and comfortable house for all the family. We loved the different areas of the garden. We had the most wonderful stay and would definitely come back. We were even greeted by dolphins on the beach! Wonderful
