About this property

This delightful holiday cottage is the perfect spot to relax and unwind on the Llyn Peninsula, North Wales. With 18th century beams still in tact this cottage oozes character throughout. We can just imagine being around the dining room table with all the family and the woodburning stove in the background.

There is plenty of garden to enjoy at Tyddyn Morthwyl and watch the family play whilst sipping a hot cuppa on the veranda.

You are a short drive to plenty of fantastic villages including; Criccieth with fabulous beach, castle and abundance of restaurants and cafes. Drive a little further and you’ll be in Porthmadog hopping onto the Welsh Highland Railway. A little further again and you arrive at the enchanting Italian village of Portmeirion. The Snowdonia national park is on your doorstep and there is a huge amount of beaches to explore on the Llyn Peninsula and beyond.

A lovely light sitting room offers you a flat screen TV with free-view, DVD and wonderful wood burning stove to keep you warm in the winter.

There is a well equipped farmhouse kitchen with dining table & chairs, gas range cooker, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave and fridge freezer.

A wonderful dining room with original beams, spectacular table and chairs with an enormous inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. I can picture the port being passed round already!

The sun room has views out to the lawn, lovely sofas, HD TV with blu ray and Sky free-view and a table tennis table to keep you entertained!

The ground floor has a twin room with zip and link beds which can be made into a super king on request. Upstairs takes you to Double ensuite with super king size bed, a separate double room with super king bed with option to twin if requested, a twin room with two singles and single bedroom.

The ground floor bathroom has a shower, loo and wash hand basin. The upstairs en suite to the double bedroom has a roll top bath, wash hand basin and loo. The family bathroom has bath, shower over, loo and wash hand basin.

The outside has ample parking with wonderful lawns and plenty of space to store bikes.

Often described as the 'Pearl of Wales on the shores of Snowdonia’, this delightful seaside town is situated just 5 miles from Porthmadog. The town’s 13th century castle perches majestically on a rocky outcrop, dominating the skyline and offering superb views of Tremadog Bay and the Snowdonia mountains. Watersports enthusiasts will be delighted by the two beaches, whilst walkers and bikers are spoilt for choice by the proximity of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Stroll along the beaches, watch porpoises playing in the surf, or relax in the various pubs, restaurants and tea rooms, sampling the famous Cadwalader’s ice cream. Further afield, attractions such as Portmeirion’s wonderful Italianate gardens, the Ffestiniog railway in Porthmadog, Harlech Castle, Caernarfon Castle and the beautiful beaches and renowned golf courses of the Llyn Peninsula are all within an easy drive.

    We did have a few issues with the maintenance of the property. We had a look around and documented things that were damaged before we unpacked. The list is as follows. There was a free-standing lamp in the games room which was broken at the join between the main pole and the top of the lamp, the top part was leaning against the glass of a window, we carefully laid the lamp down and re-arranged the two sofas to protect the lamp and our children. The Hoover was in a poor state of repair and fell to pieces every time we used it, it also smelled of wet dog. The log burners were a nice touch but no logs were supplied, just half a box of fire lighters and some kindling. One of the drawer fronts in the kitchen was broken and made the drawer unusable plus the kitchen could do with a facelift, the vinyl was coming off in some locations. The tiles behind the microwave were missing and some were loose. The shelving unit in the games room was broken (shelves were all collected at the bottom). The beautiful on-suite bathroom in the main bedroom was not practical, the roll-top bath has no shower curtain or screen so water would spray everywhere when you had a shower making the floor a slip hazard. The shower in the second bathroom had a broken handle (just a spike left). I would suggest that a hard copy handbook for arriving guests as in order to find out how to connect to the wifi, you needed to have access to the internet and with the three mobile companies we had access to (Smarty, Tesco mobile and Giff-Gaff) none could get a data connection. Also, the supplied new towels were nice but didn't appear to have been washed therefore leaving red fluff all over the person using them. We really did enjoy our week at the property, but these little niggles stopped it from being a five-star experience

    Set in a lovely country setting & only 5 mins from the beach. Very clean on arrival & the house is very spacious. Will love to go back in the future.

    However, these were just niggles and didn’t spoil our holiday. The house was a great size and location and we would definitely consider booking again.
