Encil Gyfrinfa Reviews

Claire
The house was lovely, very comfortable. We'll located and so quite and peaceful. The hot tub was great. Lots of outdoor space and parking.
Maaria
It was a little difficult to find Waze got lost and took me up a dirt road. Google maps was better to find it. On the long road up there were cows and its very dangerous as theres nothing on one side to stop the car falling. The home was okay but when we opened the sofa bed there was so much dirt under the sofa cushions. Overall the home was nice.
When we arrived we was quite disappointed
We had a great stay overall. First impressions were amazingeverything felt very comfortable and straightforward, and we were able to relax right away. We got our stay at a great price compared to previous visits, but honestly, if we'd paid the full amount, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're splitting the bill between at least six people. The cleanliness of the lodge was generally good, except for the ceilings, which had quite a few spiders. The hot tub was more like a bubble bath, and the WiFi was unreliable. One major issue was that someone had clearly been on our balcony while we were out, as there were footprints and gravel left behind, and we wouldn't have been surprised if they used the hot tub. Some parts of the balcony were falling off, and it would've been nice to have a bin with a proper lid. Despite these issues, the location was perfectvery quiet, with easy access to beaches, walks, and restaurants.
Daniel
The Lodge was beautifully furnished and very comfortable. I think the cleaners should have been a little more thorough as we did find some old food in the cupboards but apart from that we had a beautiful stay and would return
The Lodge itself is furnished to a high standard and the decor is lovely, but the cleanliness just wasn't up to the standards expected for the high price we paid. We were really disappointed on arrival to spend 30 minutes cleaning and a further couple of hours on the phone to Sykes trying to report the scum around the hot tub no one came out to rectify the problems. Due the the hot tub resembling pond water we only went in it one night after attempting to clean it ourselves, which was a shame as this was one of the main reasons for booking. Unfortunately we wouldn't book another holiday through Skyes or recommend this property to friends & family. It really could be amazing though!
Michelle
The lodge has potential to be a lovely holiday however we were not happy with the cleanliness of it particularly the hot tub which had not been cleaned prior to our stay the water was quite dirty. There was some issues inside the lodge however this did not ruin our stay it was just disappointing that we couldnt use the hot tub for the last 2 days of our 7 day break. The customer service from Sykes has been appalling and they are unwilling to offer any compensation and have totally ignored our attempts to contact them. Would not use them again which is a shame as we have been a customer for a while.

Just returned home from a lovely break in Wales. Lovely lodge in a lovely location with beautiful views. The lodge was clean, beautifully furnished & had a fantastic hot tub. Unfortunately the hot tub took about 5 hours to reach temperature after arrival as it wasnt switched on. We took our 2 dogs with us but the lodge isnt completely secure but that wasnt a problem as we were able to block the entrance to the decking easily to ensure they wouldnt run off. Provided in the lodge were cleaning products, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, hand soap, towels, bedding, family board games and a washing airer, which were all very welcomed. The reason why Ive only rated it a 910 was because although it was described as having WiFi, it did not work. Unfortunately with 2 small children who get bored easily, this was a bit of a problem as there isnt any signal in the area so kids were unable to use tablets, or use the apps on the smart TV or Google nest. Overall, I would stay again as its a lovely lodge but the WiFi could do with being looked at.
Amanda
Lovely property apart from no WiFi all weekend with three teenagers! !! Property was lovely, newly done out with high quality fittings, thoughtfully decorated and well considered, spacious and comfortable for a lodge and spotlessly clean. Hot tub was running when we got there on large decked area and remained at a pleasant consistent temperature of 35 degrees. The property is located at the top of a hill and is very peaceful on top of a hill. As you walk or drive down the hill there are some stunning views of the Llyn Pennisula. Everyone happy with the property until the realisation that the WiFi advertised in the brochure and on the sign up to the property was none existent within the property and only accessed down the dirt path leading up to it. As 50 somethings we were okay with this but definitely an issue for three teenagers who had been told would have WiFi as advertised. We tried to contact the owners on the numbers provided and were unable to the first night then told the owners were away and given another number but still no response so had no WiFi for the whole weekend If you are ok with no WiFi I would recommend the property itself which as I said is really lovely and in a great spot to explore the beautiful Llyn but if this is something that is important to members of the group would unfortunately say to reconsider.
Joanne
No WiFi so would help to prewarn. Also local restaurants all fully booked so might be an idea to give more info on these so you can call to book. Also shower was just hot water but did sort this very quickly thanks to owner calling. Lodge very clean and lots of space.

This attraction is really something special and has reached the finals of the "Best Family Day Out" category in the National Tourism Awards for Wales.  It's actually the only attraction in North Wales to be shortlisted for this prestigious award. Located in the Snowdonia region there are many rides and activities including Jungle Boat Adventure, Den Building, Green Dragon Roller Caoster, Treetop Towers and the BareFoot Trail.  Kids of all ages will love it here and we think it's excellent value as well.

An adventure boat company in the heart of Wales. Whether it's adrenaline fueled fun, or a relaxing river tour, you and your family will want to book up with Rib Ride. Ride a 'RIB' boat on the Menai Strait or take a Bear Grylls adventure boat tour. Very highly reviewed on Trip Advisor. Tours for bridges and swells, puffin and seals, castle and islands and more.

Penrhyn Castle is a neo-Norman castle is located in the stunning Gwynedd region of Wales. The castle will appeal to those who enjoy sites of historical interest as well as to families looking to enjoy a fun day out. The Castle is in very good condition and guided tours are on offer. Don't miss a look at the grand hall with its exquisite collection of paintings or the Victorian Kitchen which gives amazing insight into the running of the Castle. Other highlights include the Servants Rooms and the one ton slate bed which was originally made for Queen Victoria.
