The utility isn’t far and is served by a washing machine, ideal for when you need to wash sandy clothes or towels.

There was no where to wash/wipe sandy feet as entering the house (I notice other houses has an outside tap at the front). No recycling bins - again other houses had these.... All doors are stiff and only lock with force. Main bedroom on floor 1 has thin white curtains which do not block the light from the street light directly outside the window and of course the natural day light at 5am. Very little sleep was had - not what I want on a holiday. The cot ordered was not left as agreed - I had to drive to pick one up from the local office and was rudely asked to bring it back without a thought for the inconvenience this caused me. All these things added up to a most un-enjoyable stay and we will NOT be booking again. Abersoch itself is lovely but this house has truly let you down.

Beautifully clean with excellent facilities, on the whole. A couple of points; No teapot! Such a drag and a waste when there are several people wanting a cuppa. One tea towel is insufficient for a weekâs drying up! Bath mats, please. Would recommend to family and friends,( take your own teapot and tea towels). Thank you

Loved the boat yard - it is noisy, but it's great to see so we liked it! Nice courtyard garden. Overall great stay..... I know you list as not providing towels (which we didn't see so that's our fault). But we felt that tea-towels, bathmats and hand towels in the bathrooms would have made the whole stay feel much nicer.
