Dutch Barn Two is a lovely, well equipped cottage in a beautiful part of North Wales. The location feels away from it all but is very convenient for Criccieth and Porthmadog and for lots of days out to beaches, castles and waterfalls. The view from the cottage garden is amazing and looking at the stars from the hot tub is incredible. A super holiday with a delightful host.

This lovely property is perfect for quiet little get away.I surprised my partner with a trip to this stunning location with a hottub so we can unwind and spend some quality time together.The property is spacious and cosy with all of the necessities we needed to just stay in if we chose to do so.The beds were so comfortable, and the view in the morning was absolutely breathtaking. It was a serene way to spend the morning with a cup of tea.I would most certainly come back here again. Would fully recommend.

Beautiful place to stay for a long weekend. Very well kept, and even added bonus of Christmas decorations to help get us in the festive mood. Stunning views from the hot tub and secure, dog friendly garden. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming, would highly recommend a stay here.
