Guests say
Golwg Y Mor in Criccieth offers breathtaking panoramic sea views and a stunning location directly on the seafront. Guests consistently praise the cleanliness, spaciousness, and well-equipped kitchen, as well as the comfortable beds and inviting conservatory. The property is ideal for relaxing and exploring the region. Some guests noted minor maintenance issues and felt a few extra touches could enhance the experience. Parking can be challenging during peak months, and families with young children should be mindful of the stairs. Overall, the property provides a memorable and enjoyable stay with outstanding views.
Multiple reviews highlight the property as extremely clean and tidy upon arrival, with high standards maintained throughout.
The seafront position and panoramic views are repeatedly described as stunning and breathtaking, making the location a standout feature.
Guests found the beds very comfortable and appreciated the spacious social areas. The conservatory is a favourite spot for relaxation, though the stairs may be challenging for young children.
The property is well-equipped with a modern kitchen and laundry room, but some guests noted missing items (e.g., dishwasher tablets, toiletries) and minor maintenance issues such as a leaky skylight and tricky door lock.
A small welcome pack was provided (tea, Welsh cakes, milk), but guests noted these items are not guaranteed and sometimes lacked freshness or essentials. Communication from owners was attentive, though some found it a bit insistent.

Fantastic location, and for a lower price it would be a 5* review. Wonderful views and different options to sit out on the decking or upstairs in the conservatory. Lucky enough to spot a porpoise. Spacious social areas and the downstairs bedroom and shower room is good for less mobile guests. The interior was clean and we had what we needed but at the price (£2k for 3 nights) a second double bed or zip link to give options would have been better. The owners did hassle a bit checking we had definitely read all the rules. We had to strip the beds which might be expected at Airbnb but not through cottage company at that price.

The place itself was absolutely stunning, the views were incredible. Ample room for us all, 4 adults and 2 young children. The stairs are not child friendly, so for anyone with young children they will need to be super careful due to the design of the stairs. Incredibly clean and tidy upon arrival and done to a high standard. Street parking is available, but you are not always able to park outside the property and there are restrictions in place between May and August that prevent you parking on the street. Something to bear in mind if travelling over the Summer. Lovely kitchen with plenty of utensils and cutlery. The laundry room was great and also stocked. Downstairs bathroom and bedroom great for anyone with mobility isues.

Criccieth is a fabulous place to stay, and the location directly on the seafront was breathtaking. The property, however, was disappointing in many ways. It was a bit of a shock to see a 'For Sale' sign outside on arrival ( a bit of warning would have been nice!). Once inside, the welcome pack consisted of a box of tea bags, a pack of Welsh cakes, and a pint of milk with a use by date on the day of arrival. There were no toiletries provided in either shower or bathroom (with the exception of handwash). There were no dishwasher tablets (an empty box) or soap powder/pods for the washing machine. We had to buy a battery in order to light the fire upstairs. And we also had to move furniture and put a bucket underneath the skylight when it rained. The lock on the front door was 'iffy' to say the least - you were never really sure it was going to unlock!On a positive, the beds were really comfortable and the views were always fantastic. This could be an amazing 5 star property with just a little more TLC.
