Fabulous stay at Kris Kin, cottage was lovely and very well equipt.We stayed as a multi generational family and the cottage worked well for us. The hot tub was a lovely bonus.The owners were very attentive and during a storm where the water was cut off in the local area, they came around to ensure we were fully updated.The cottage is close to the beach of Criccieth and not far from black rock sands so we were able to enjoy the beach on multiple days.We'd definitely stay again!

A lovely holiday home, not far from snowdon or the beach. We all had a great stay and would recommend the barn to anyone.
