Home from Home. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds. Welcome pack included a fabulous home made Lemon Drizzle cake. Good location for exploring north Wales. Great pub opposite the cottage, served very nice food. We had a great stay, would highly recommend.

We had some minor problems with a broken kettle and toilet flush that were dealt with fairly promptly during our stay with minimal impact on our holiday. I would thoroughly recommend this rural Welsh property for a family break with Sykes. Thanks for looking after us guys :-)
