  Unfortunately I do think your cleaning team are letting you down and it somewhat takes the shine away from the place.

  The kitchen and dining area, where we spent most of our time, have not been cleaned properly, I have summarised below. Dirty floor, the black tiles may disguise the fact but we had to wipe something that was spilled and the cloth was black. Dirty dishes and cupboards, we loaded a lot through the dishwasher and wiped out some drawers and shelves. The ranch slider window frame in the dining area is dirty where the handles are. The windows have many finger prints and other marks. I saw the note re windows being done monthly, they must be due and day now, but the insides should be cleaned for guests and actually I think that window and the side window, as your main features should be maintained for each paying guest. Cigarette butts left upstairs outside in a jar with dirty water. The floor around the dishwasher and the dishwasher and washing machine wasn’t clean. The dishwasher although clean inside needed tp have the door framework cleaned. We had to wipe down the table and the chairs on arrival. The shower curtains upstairs, I think were washed but very stained. Spiders everywhere The washing machine detergent dispenser and front needed to be cleaned and the cupboard beside it as well. We shouldn’t have been the one’s cleaning that. The rug in the downstairs lounge is not clean. The other couple of things are also the fact that we are opening and closing gates to get here, that is fine but the lower gate is completely rusty and falling apart. My daughter cut her ankles quite badly on the lower rung that is hanging off. Having guests open and close a gate in this state of repair is really unacceptable. There were no cleaning products for us to even get started with. As I said, these things take the shine off a beautiful cottage and location.

  Overall we enjoyed our stay at the cottage.

  It is really quirky and full of character. The location is amazing as its so central in the town. The bathrooms were lovely and clean and there was always plenty of hot water. The bathroom on the top floor is stunning. We slept well as the beds were comfortable and enjoyed relaxing in the TV lounge. However, there were a few small niggles during our stay. On arrival it would have been useful to have a welcome sheet or pack of some sort with key information, including about where to put rubbish- we had to keep taking it out in small bags and disposing of it in the street bins. A larger brush for sweeping the floor would have been handy, we had 2 small children with us who inevitably dropped food on the kitchen floor and cleaning the tiles wasn't easy with the small dustpan and brush. On our first day I had to wash a lot of the kitchen utensils, crockery and pans before we could use them as there was food or grease left on them, I understand that this is down to previous guests but feel that this should be checked before arrival as it was very obvious. There were a lot of cobwebs, I know its an old building but they were in the corners of every room with quite a lot of spiders. There is also a strong musty smell on the bottom floor so we only stayed down there when necessary for cooking and eating. Overall it was a good stay despite those few niggles and we would return as the location was fantastic.

  1 Crud Y Mor is a beautiful house, in a beautiful location.

  Everything felt brand new, with luxurious decor and fittings and a lovely sunny garden with comfy patio furniture. Everything and more you could possibly need has been thought about by the owners. A welcoming touch was the selection of teas/coffee and Welsh Cakes left for us. There is also a spacious level car parking space to the front of the house which was ideal. A 2 minute walk takes you past the Min Y Mor Hotel and onto the beach, and a short walk along the promenade takes you into the town where there are plenty of shops and places to eat, a mini fairground and even donkey rides available on the beach. A little further on, there is the picturesque harbour with bars and restaurants looking over the boats and bridge crossing the estuary. Barmouth is a beautiful seaside town and our holiday was made all the more special because we stayed here. You will not be disappointed if you book this beautiful house and we look forward to visiting again

  We had a lovely stay and were blown away by the property, very clean and modern.

  The beach was a 2 minute walk and the pub even less! We walked into Barmouth most days and within a 10 minute gentle stroll we were in the town centre so location is ideal. We were grateful for the treats on arrival, and many thanks for the use of the baby gate and cot bed. Our little one slept perfectly, the windows even sound proofed against the seagulls. We were very lucky to have warm sunny weather and found that even with windows open overnight the area was lovely and quiet, despite being close to the pub, very respectful and quiet neighbours. Ian is a fantastic host, very helpful with my queries about the cot sizing and parking. The garden was a lovely little suntrap and we loved watching the birds on the feeders. Overall we had a great stay and would highly recommend this propety. Only reason for 4 stars was the bed was quite hard for me but I know this is usually personal preference so others may like a firm mattress!

  Wow Wow and Wow.

  I don't think I can put into word how luxurious this house is. There is nothing more you could ever want from holiday accommodation. The owners are are a text away should you need to ask them anything and so warm and friendly. My partner and I took my teenage grandchildren aged 16 and 17 who both were very impressed. If you drive and don't know the area we went to the Nantcol Waterfalls it was breathtaking I am 67 and the hike to the top was manageable for me. We the hundred steps the views were special. We went to Coed Y Brenin Forest Park and hired bikes. There are waterfalls there too we sat and had a snack and the birds were eating out of our hands. We also forest walk near Dolgellau. There is so much more to see and we are in love with the place and we will definitely be going back to 1 Crud Y Mor next year. As you can probably tell I am not brilliant with words but you get the gist of it
