Berth Reviews

A beautiful place to call home for a few days. The photos dont do it justice! Lovely welcome basket on arrival, clean, comfortable and spacious but cosy at the same time. We loved the games room and the hot tub! Very well equipped house, would highly recommend
Second time staying at Berth, what a fantastic holiday home this is. Everything is catered for in such a lovely location.
Jacqueline
I would highly recommend this property for either families or friends. The information and welcome packs were great on arrival as we could have a lovely cup of coffee before unpacking. The property both inside and out was immaulate, with the garden furniture and hot tub beingan added bonus. Three generations of my family stayed here ages ranging from 13 to 65 years old and we all enjoyed our stay. The games room was great for children at night before bedtime, adults enjoyed it aswell.
Richard
Pleasant, large cottage, tastefully modernised, well equipped. and kept very clean. It was within easy reach of towns and beaches on both sides of the peninsula. We were given a very nice welcome pack of Welsh products..
Everything was of the highest standard, from the generous welcome pack to the spotless hot tub and really well equipped games room. Would definitely recommend.
Superb property fantastic location and to top it off a very thoughtful welcome pack.
Lesley
As a family we absolutely love Berth. This was our second stay at Berth and wont be our last either. It has literally everything you need. The decor is modern and spotlessly clean. Games room and Hot Tub are a massive hit with us all. Definitely be staying again. Thanks.
Katherine
We have stayed in many different holiday cottages over the years and this was one of the best. A lovely welcome pack from the owners, spotlessly clean, spacious and really wellequipped. A really comfortable home in a great position, being close to both Pwllheli and Criccieth. Both towns have some lovely shops and restaurants. Will definitely visit again.
Absolutely love this place. The owners are soo lovely and helpful. This is our 2nd stay here this year. We love it! The only reason I dropped a point on comfort is the mattress in the master bedroom wasnt comfortable this time. Apart from thatPerfect, furnished beautifully, great location, fantastic games room downstairs, well equipped as I said we love it here! We will still be back.
Michael
Brilliant holiday home will definitely stay again
We had a fantastic stay at Berth and it's a great base for exploring North Wales. The property was very spacious, clean and had everything that you could possibly need. The welcome pack and card was a lovely touch and we particularly enjoyed the Bara Brith! Couple of small things for the owners to consider the double bed is a little creaky and hooks on the backs of the doors in the bathroom and ensuite would have been useful. Many thanks Linda & John, we will definitely recommend your property.
What a fantastic holiday home to stay in, lovely and clean with plenty of facilities. Great location for visiting North Wales.
Sharon
We absolutely loved this holiday cottage. As a young family it was perfect for us, the children enjoyed playing in the games room and we all loved the hot tub. The cottage has everything you might need, including childrens cutlery, high chair, stair gates etc. the garden is enclosed and super safe. We found the location perfect for exploring the area. Cant wait to return.
Vivienne
Fantastic holiday accommodation! Warm and welcoming owners . House is home from home with every detail taken care of to make stay as enjoyable as possible. Location is great .. walking distance to beautiful beach. Only down side is that it is just off the road so one does hear traffic Would definitely return !
The accomodation was excellent. All the the facilities needed were there, the place was spotlessly clean, it was a very quiet peaceful location. Berth is airy and modern and beautifully decorated. The bathroom and ensuite are brilliantly appointed, the games room is a god send for both rainy days or for kids waiting while food is being prepared. The wifi signal is strong and easily supported 5 devices all at once. The jacuzzi spotlessly clean and very relaxing for evening dips which we used every day. The owners very kindly emptied our bins Welsh recycling bins take some getting used to. Excellent base to explore Llyn. Thank you for a great week.
A lovely clean property and beautifully furnished. We had a fantastic week exploring the llyn peninsula, Berth was a great location. The owners have really considered everything and the property has great amenities. We would definitely recommend. Thank you
Eleanor
Thank you for a wonderful stay. The facilities were brilliant, and everything is so well set up. Really couldn't ask for any more. Amazing for kids with the cot, plates and cutlery. We'd definitely like to stay again if we're in back in the area.
Stephen
Berth was a lovely relaxing place to stay. The house is well maintained and spotlessly clean. The facilities are spot on. Hot tub was an added bonus and, again, was very clean. A lovely welcome card and basket made our arrival even more special. We will be back...thankyou
Weve had the most fantastic week at this beautiful property, set in an absolutely stunning location. The welcome package left by the owners was a really lovely touch, and gratefully received. We will definitely be going back.
Lesley
Only one thing to say . .perfect
Deborah
This is my 2nd stay at Berth & will not be my last. Its a really lovely property with fantastic facilities, the location is great, with a beach within easy walking distance, and local towns just a ten minute drive away. The owners could not be more helpful, the welcome gift is a lovely touch & much needed when you arrive after a long drive. The property is modern & spotlessly clean, inside & out with comfortable beds & furniture. I cant fault it & would highly recommend it. Many thanks to the owners for a lovely stay, we will definitely be back!
Caroline
This property is fantastic. Location is great for both coast and mountains, but the cottage is perfect. Spacious, cosy, clean and well maintained. Hosts are welcoming and friendly, games room is ideal for kidsteenagers. Equipped with everything and more. Absolutely 5 star property
Wonderful property. Bright, clean, spacious and with everything you need for your stay. A thoughtful welcome gift from the owners who have gone above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. I can not fault or recommend any improvements as they have thought of everything.
Samantha
This property is stunning it is worth every penny and very well equipped ... This property is stunning it is worth every penny and very well equipped catering for all needs, very clean set In a beautiful location would highly recommend
Second stay at this wonderful property, we will be back again.
Anthony
Beautiful cottage . . had every appliance and facilitie. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay will be back.
Even better than we hoped for! Spacious, comfortable with modern high quality fittings everywhere. The cool basement was welcome in the very hot weather and the pool table is an excellent one balls do get stuck in the pockets but just put your hand in rather than tilt the heavy table. Criccieth is a very pleasant visit nearby although Pwllheli would probably suit young people better. Perfectly placed for touring the peninsula or visiting Portmadog, Portmeiron or Harlech Castle. Very friendly and helpful owners close by. Perfect.
The property was perfect for our needs for a relaxing stay. All furnishings were of high quality and the property was nicely decorated. We had a warm welcome from our hosts who promptly came to our help to get the x box working. If you are staying with teens the games room will be a massive hit great hub for family fun on wet days.. thanks for having us .
We were really impressed with this property. Thank you for the welcome pack and card. They were very much appreciated. The property was spotless and had everything you needed. The showers were very powerful and there was always hot water. We loved the space inside and out. We used the pool table far more than we expected and were pleased the facility was there. We didnt use the hot tub but only because it was quite windy. We thoroughly recommend this property for its facilities and location. We loved Criccieth and Llanbedrog beach. Afon Wen beach is a short walk away and would be quieter than Criccieth. We visited NT Plas yn Riew which is absolutely beautiful and definitely worth a visit.
Shirley
We had a wonderful stay at Berth, the property is pretty perfect. We used the hot tub every day as the weather was lovely and managed to eat al fresco in the garden. Thank you for the welcome pack and card that was a very nice personal touch. The beds were comfortable and the showers were very powerful We used the games room more than I thought we would, only criticism is we couldn't get the xbox to work, some instructions might have helped but the tv just wouldn't pick it up for some reason. Kitchen was well equipped and spotlessly clean as was the rest of the house. There was one chair that was a little bit wobbly so that might need looking at but there were only 4 of us so it wasn't an issue! We toured all around the area, our favourite places were Abersoch, Aberdaron, Whistling Sands and last but certainly not least, in fact our absolute favourite was Morfa Nefyn that blew us away!! We also visited the I'm a Celebrity castle Gwrych castle at Abergele on the way home which we can also recommend! Thanks for a truly memorable holiday in a beautiful part of the country, we hope to be back sometime!
Keith James
Realy enjoyed our stay ,in this beautiful property. WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY TO ANYBODY .
Excellent place to stay for a short break or longer. It has everything you could possibly need with so many additional features such as the games room, the hot tub the outside space, all very well kept and spotlessly clean. The owners deserve much credit for this place and they provide very useful information in the welcome pack and the goodie basket they left along with a thoughtful welcome note, these are the little touches that just made this stay wonderful. Thank you
FANTASTIC HOLIDAY COTTAGE! !!!! Everything was brilliant. Definitely great for families, we had Everything we needed and more. Thanks also for hamper on arrival it made us feel very welcome.
Charlotte
Fantastic house, spacious and spotlessly clean, had everything we needed and more! Kids loved the games room and toys in particular. The owners obviously take really good care of the house. We would definitely return.
Great location and an excellent spacious cottagebungalow. Nice touch with the welcome pack, the games room was brilliant for the children. Would definitely stay here again.
One of the best holiday rentals I've stayed in. So well presented, the best range of kitchen equipment. Self catering means exactly that.
Beautiful property, we had a lovely week away. Our toddler already wants to go back! Having a hairdryer available would have been handy. All the baby stuff was very handy.
What a gem of a property. Only a short walk from a beach, has a games room, toys and a safe garden for children. Very clean and great facilities, we will be returning soon.
What an amazing place. Value for money is exceptional. Walks and views stunning. They have thought of everything when it comes to the property. All that is left to say is thank you.
