Ty Gwyn Reviews

Daniel
Amazing stay over new year, plenty of room for 8 adults and 3 kids, really cosy house with excellent view and great walks near by. The house has everything you need, lots of space for dining and relaxing. The owner Elliw is very responsive and helpful. I stay away every new year, this is easily the best holiday home we have stayed in so far and we will 100 stay again.
Fantastic time away with our family, it was for my wife's 40th, couldn't have asked for a better location and house. We had a great time, everything we needed and more, house was extremely clean and well looked after, hot tub with the amazing views was superb, great place. We will 100 use this holiday home again.
Beautiful house. Perfectly clean with great facilities. We were made to feel very welcome here and the owners were easily contactable and very accommodating.. We really enjoyed our stay and are already planning our return.
Absolutely exceptional holiday home with everything we needed and more for our 7 night stay. More than the home and facilities though is the beautiful location wonderful panoramic views of the surrounding area especially from the hot tub! Best of all worlds with plenty to see and do within a short drive or perfect peace taking in the views and wildlife. Best holiday ever according to.my grandson can't argue with that.
Shirley
We were a party of five adults and three aged 10 to 17 with three cars for which there was ample parking. Good information before arrival including directions and access to the house. It is well set back from the A5 and therefore quiet and safe. We had our own patch of lawn for some games frisbee, ball and goal provided plus the hot tub which some of us used. Handy to have a rotary line and the BBQ plus the shed to store the seat cushions. Lovely views of territory we are very familiar with. Kitchen has table easily seating 8. Not sure how 10 would get on. A few items not in evidence such as sugar bowl, milk jug, pizza wheel. Plenty of cutlerly and plates. A small set of folding steps would be handy as top shelf of all cupboards well above my reach hence not seeing the much wanted cafetiere until day of depature! Good sized fridge and the bottle cooler was a nice touch with welcome wine. The welcome booklet needs a refresh to provide some hints on use of hob we figured it and that the switches to the washing machine are in the adjoining cupboard. It should mention where the fire blanket is cupboard to right of sink. We all felt towels should be provided. We needed ones for the down stairs loo, the kitchen, the hot tub and regular bathroom use which is a very large amount of 28 to be transporting with the rest of one's luggage. Toilet paper plentiful and good quality. Bathrooms all very impressive and modern with good water flow. Beds considered comfortable by most. Bedrooms offered generous storage with chests and wardrobes but no seats or full length mirrors. No hair dryer that we could find. Upstairs oppressively hot and windows open only to a fixed point. Once open window insets need a very big clean an area clearly overlooked. Bedding of good quality and very fresh and clean. No basic body wash for showers but liquid soap provided for hand washing. Generous hall way offered places for coats and shoes we changed into slippers for upstairs but clearly others don't as stair carpet showing signs of much use which is a shame. We watered hanging baskets and dead headed the blooms. Lounge offers some jigsaws, leaflets and games with three large sofas but we felt a nest of tables would be so handy then everyone can reach their drink without all trying to get at the one small table. Main lounge TV worked very well but bedroom ones constantly buffered so strain on sat. too great. Owner very responsive when asked to sort lightbulb replacements. We were puzzled by need to not use hot tub on our final evening the handover day seems logical for any such cut off point. Other cottages on same site look lovely and no party intrudes on another. I've booked with Sykes numerous times and spent many s more this time so probably consequently highly aware of any failings we had a generally good time and offer up these observations over fine tuning to be constructive not overly negative.
Absolutely gorgeous house, well equipped, spacious and very comfortable. We had a lovely, relaxing holiday just what we wanted. Would definitely recommend it.
Just come back from a girly weekend here for my 40th birthday. Such a gorgeous cottage with amazing views, so clean and warm lots of space for the 10 of us, it had everything we needed and more. Would definitely stay again.
Claire
We couldn't fault Ty Gwyn. It was a beautiful cottage in a gorgeous setting. There was plenty of space for the 10 of us and perfect for our family holiday. There was plenty of parking, the bedrooms warm and comfortable and the living spaces were modern and well equipped. Having a hot tub was a bonus and the owner was very friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was a brilliant size for all of us, lovely and clean. Views from every window were amazing, so so beautiful. It's well positioned, so much to do in the local area but also great if you decide to stay in for the day. We have decided to rebook we loved it that much!
Jennie
Great weekend at Ty Gwyn. Stayed here a few times over the years and never been disappointed. And I am sure we will be back!
Lovely property for us to share with our friends , perfect location for zipworld. The property had everything we needed.
Brilliant place to stay. Every room having an ensuit is brilliant for a joint stay. Would recommend for group gatherings. Effortless to check in and out. 5 stars.
When the entire group of 7 people had to spend their own money on 3 bottles of air freshner and 3 bottles of Febreeze because every single bedroom STINKS really bad that's never a good sign. All the carpets and furniture had a horrible smell, especially when you opened the wardrobes. There were disgusting smelling pillows inside which we had to take out and leave in the downstairs laundry room. We had the windows open for the entire week, all day long, and the smell never went away. The showers were leaking and it even leaked into the living room. We reported a problem with the cooker fan. The dishwasher wasn't working properly either. I also had to chase the owner for key collection information myself since they didn't send it, which should've been a red flag. I would not recommend this place. The only positive thing it has going for it is the outside views.
This property is huge and very well appointed. There was nothing we needed that hadn't been provided. The hot tub was very clean and enjoyed by all. It would be perfect if towels were provided for everything bar the hot tub as they take up a huge part of the packing. The only downside was the smell which we assumed was from septic tank and a massive fly problem. We hung fly papers and captured dozens every day. On a more positive note we couldn't have asked for a better owner. We suffered huge delays due to traffic accidents and the owner kindly met the grocery delivery guy we had booked and took our order in and packed it away. First class service.
Sheena
This property ticked all the boxs for us and our friends. It had everything we were looking for. The stunning location made us so relaxed and sitting in the hot tub overlooking the hills was breathtaking. The house was spot on and met all our needs. Being located on the A5 was perfect as everything was accessible.
The cottage was beautiful and so clean and tidy. Grounds of the property were also lovely and clean. We had a lovely stay and couldn't believe how much there is to do in the local areas.
Samuel
Fantastic weeks stay at both Ty Gwyn and Briws. Beautiful accommodation and location, and the weather was fantastic. Hot tubs were a superb addition and these were well maintained, but done so discreetly. Owners were welcoming and extremely accommodating. Great location and look forward to returning.
Definitely recommend this property and the owner who lovely to deal with.

Ty Gwyn is a beautiful cottage in a stunning location in the Welsh countryside. The cottage is well equipped and spacious and the garden and hot tub are amazing. The owners are helpful and came every day to maintain the hot tub. The cottage is in a perfect location for exploring Snowdonia and the surrounding areas. We would definitely love to return to Ty Gwyn!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the property actually exceeded our expectations. Every need had been catered for.
Graham
From start to finish our holiday was amazing. The standard of accommodation was truly fabulous. The scenery was outstanding and the service excellent. The cottage is a wonderful property and I would recommend staying there to everyone.
Jessica
Thank you for fitting us in lastminute. This break away was exactly what we needed. Very relaxing and met all expectations. We will be back as soon as you have space for us! Thanks jess
This was a last minute booking due to Covid 19 restrictions changing and it was a great relief that we were able to found something after a very stressful day of being told by Sykes we had to cancel our first holiday. We have all had an amazing break in this beautiful cottage and feel relaxed as we all travelled home we would go back as the owner was very helpful during our stay.
Katherine
We had a lovely time at Ty Gwyn the rooms were all comfortable, and the kitchen and living room area could accommodate all of the group comfortably. The hot tub and the view was amazing. We would really recommend staying here for a group trip away. Driveable distance from Snowdon and Bala lake.
Andrew
An amazing old converted farm house. Loads of room for 10 people, although you can't fit 10 people in the hot tub at once. Massive kitchen and table for 10 people. En suite for every bedroom. Great views, with plenty to do within the surrounding areas. The owner is a lovely person to deal with. Highly recommended and will hopefully be returning some time in the future. Thanks for a lovely week away.
The cottage was absolutely stunning and so warm in the November cold with heated flooring! Everyone was so happy and we had such a lovely weekend we didnt want to leave! Couldnt have been more pleased with everything!
The cottage has been finished to a high standard, the furniture and fittings are first class, the location is fabulous, the garden and hot tub are fantastic.

We stayed here back in april and there was building works going on which we were never informed about so be booked again for june thinking we could give it another go and enjoy it but still building works going on some starting there diggers at 6am in a morning which was frustrating when we have young children as the really loud noise woke them all so didn't really end up being a relaxing holiday i do feel we should of been informed again and given the opourtunity to spend money elsewhere if we were informed we would defiantly not of chosen this property again and feel its really poor from yourselves not to inform us on booking the holiday especially for the money we paid
Ty Gwyn is a very beautiful cottage in a gorgeous setting. It was the perfect get away for a group of friends. You can tell there had been great thought and care taken when the cottage had been renovated. Everything was of a very good quality, from the towels to all the kitchen utensils and the gas fired BBQ. The hot tub was very well maintained, and I really enjoy a soak just after we had arrived with a chilled glass of wine. There was a couple of bottles waiting for us in the fridge up on our arrival. This was a lovely touch and really added to the start of our weekend away. I just wish we had been able to stay longer! Theres already been talk of another visit and I wouldnt hesitate to book again.
Hayley
Beautiful house, provided all the comforts needed after a busy day. Would definitely book again.

Great place to stay, very friendly.
Lorraine
The owners were very good and always ready to help
We booked this holiday house because it had a hot tub it wasn't working correctly and we only used it Friday night! !! We reported it to the owner who basically said she was aware of it and was very sorry but it needed a new part and company couldn't get out to look at it until after our stay!! It was tepid and the owner was apologetic but despite us sharing our disappointment she basically said its just one of those things sorry but not good enough!! Eventually she offered 10 off any future booking won t be returning sadly as want 're assurance that a hot tub will be working next year so will prob look at hoseasons!! It's a shame as house was nice.
Loved this cottage. So much to do around by driving of course and great for my kids. The hot tib was amazing and cleaned every day. Not once did any of the kids that went with us say they were bored. Such a peaceful place to be and great to relax and unwind. Even came home with no washing which is a brucy bonus. Booked to go back next year we all enjoyed it that much
I visited here with my friends for my 30th birthday. The place is beautiful and quite isolated so was the perfect setting. Really recommend going there with a group.
Stunning property, excellent customer service from Sykes cottages.
