  We found Ty Hir a comfortable place to stay with all the necessities for a relaxing break.

  The single track up to the barn which is adjacent to the owners home is a little daunting on first go, but soon becomes less so. It feels like you are in top of the world when you reach the accomodation and the views are amazing! Nb the direct view from the living room is disappointing but to each side, beautiful. If it were my place I'd swap the dresser for a comfy couch to sit with morning coffee and take in the view of Cnicht. We had a slight problem with the electricity supply on the first evening and morning but the owners were on hand for the weekend and were very friendly, approachable and helpful. It was sorted before we left. There is a private working farm next to the accomodation and the farmers there were very friendly. I would say this is probably not the best a property for people with mobility limitations as the parking outside the property is on quite rough, uneven ground. There is a short gentle sloping path from the gate to the accomodation.

  The cottage was delightful with great views of the beach and the sea. However there was no information as to how to access the beach which would have been really useful. We discovered towards the end of our holiday that there was access on to the beach south of the railway station. It is possible to access the beach by going through the caravan site across the road from the cottage but it was signed “site clientele only”. We think more information regarding beach access would have been really useful. Online info stated there would be a welcome pack on our arrival, however this constituted a packet of Welsh cakes and a small carton of milk. We don’t consider this to be a welcome pack. Either a proper welcome pack should be provided or mention of it deleted from the website. However we had a very pleasant stay overall.

  The standard of cleaning was not as expected.

  There was cobwebs and dust everywhere on arrival and no hoover to clean up the rugs. The layout of the living space is odd and it would better to swap the dresser and table so that there was space to move the settee away from the cooker. We appreciate that it's on a working farm, but having sheepdogs kennelled outside the bedroom window that bark and howl from first light in the summer was disruptive. There needs to be more usable, newer crockery, glasses and cutlery, there was only one chopping board and baking tray! The mattresses were really comfortable but the bed frames need attention as parts are broken and they squeak. Outdoor seating would be a good addition. The owner dealt with the tv and broadband outage promptly.

  Cottage well equipped and clean.

  We couldnt get the tv to work but there is wifi. The wood burning fire makes the living room very cosy but could do with more easy chairs instead of the upright bench. The cottage is in a beautiful location but is rather wedged in between the farm house and the farm yard so there are no views to the front and the working farmyard slightly spoils the view from the back. There is a gate from the patio which gives the impression you can walk through it onto a public path, but in fact the farmer told us it's private land. So maybe a sign on the gate would prevent people trespassing onto the field.

  The property was amazing. A traditional character cottage modernised to the highest standard - the owners are to be congratulated. There's a very neat parking space leading to the tasteful garden area with fabulous sea views, then a practical (tiled floor with underfloor heating), but welcoming entrance leading upstairs to a well laid out modern kitchen and living area with those stunning sea views. The bathroom is ultra modern - even our 2 year old grandson loved the shower and didn't miss his bath at all. If anyone is looking for a small cottage, then this must be the Best in Wales!
