Perfect for our family to stay in, everything we needed was provided. We loved the views of the sea from the windows, and we could hear the sea at night too, so relaxing. Always found enough car parking outside the house even with our four cars. Cricceith is a lovely small town with great places to eat, lovely bakery and butchers as well as independent other shops.

The water was scalding, therefore could not be used, which defeated the idea of that floor being for families. The adults couldn't use it never mind the children. Also, the front bedroom windows could not be opened. Everyone tried! Made it very hot at night. Tried a fan, but the two in the house were very noisy. Apart from the above we had a lovely stay and would definitely come back (if the above is sorted). Fabulous location. Loved it.
