Lovely location - lovely host

Stayed in August 2023

All was perfect.

We loved the views from the Ystabl cottage and the peace all around it. Also the beautiful hills and hiking trails in the neighbourhood. The owner was very friendly and helpful.

Everything was fantastic. Swancot was very welcoming and had made all the arrangements before we reached (including some cakes). The location is lovely as well.

Location. Friendly host.

Maybe the bathroom could be updated a little.

It was lovely to meet and talk to Swancott. The comfortable beds. The well equipped kitchen.

It was all good

Great location, very quiet, good transport links. We were walking a section of the Wales coast path. Perfectly placed. Friendly host who greeted us with a chilled glass of wine!

There was nothing we didn't like.

Lovely cottage and lovely host...and she organised great weather for us.

There was a problem with the hot water in the bathroom but this was fixed immediately.

it was spotlessly clean. The kitchen was very well appointed - all the implements you could have for a self catering holiday. Swancott was welcoming and left us freshly baked cake!

An Indian takeaway next-door.

Host was excellent, property was first class and location was to die for. Peace and quiet in beautiful surroundings.

Fabulous supply of hot water with a good strong shower but personally I think the bathroom would benefit from an upgrade & we found the towel sizes to be skimpy.

Wonderful location with fabulous views of the sea & just a few minutes walk from a stony beach. Friendly host, brilliantly appointed kitchen with family size fridge freezer & induction cooker. Choice of local supermarkets poor so it's great to be able to do a big shop & store/freeze it if you choose to self cater. Use of shared laundry a bonus for drying walking clothes. Beautiful, tranquil setting.

Could do with some decorating / upgrading.

Great location. Friendly and welcoming host.

The Bed was not the most comfortable and the duvet was more for winter weather. But that was a personal view which others might not agree with.

Perfect Location with lovely sunsets. Convenient for travelling around the area. The Cottage was very nice as was the host. Nice and quiet with just the odd sound from the countryside which we did not mind at all. It was a pleasant change to stay on a farm too !

Bed was a bit creeky - adequate but would prefer something a bit more comfortable. Lounge carpet a little bit tired. These were very minor observations... On the whole everything was great.

Lovely peaceful farm cottage break. Views of the hills and the sea along with sheep and cattle grazing. Kitchen well equipped including useful large fridge freezer - local grocery shopping is not the best. Nice table and benches just outside the front door to dine or drink from.

Some of the mattresses were less comfy than others, with springs you could feel. The furnishings were somewhat old and tired - the sofas in particular are at a point where standard cleaning can only do so much. These were minor things and didn't really affect our stay. Some notes for people thinking of staying here: you need to bring ALL consumables for the kitchen, including tea, coffee, sugar, and seasonings, and all your shampoo etc for the bathroom. They did have hand soap, toilet paper, washing up liquid and dishwasher tabs, hand towels, larger towels and teatowels, but if you want a larger bath towel you need to bring one. The "beach" nearby is not great, so don't expect a beach holiday here - it's stony not sandy, and difficult to walk on, with big, slippery seaweed-covered stones. We tried to get to the water but gave up. You might have more luck when the ride is in. If you stick to the grass you get nice views though. Bring insect repellent, as I got bitten by a horsefly there.

Host was a delight. She went above and beyond to accommodate us with little things we'd forgotten. The views were fantastic. The walls are very thick so you don't get noise from neighbours, and it's nice and cool in hot weather. WiFi was decent for internet conference calls (not sure what streaming would be like as we didn't need it.) Some nice walks in the area and if you have a car there's lots to do nearby. The place was clearly cleaned and cared for to a high standard. Kitchen looked quite recently renovated with good appliances including a dishwasher.

Loved the place and location.

Nothing at all, it was perfect

The house is perfect, has everything you could need and it is a proper home from home. The WiFi connection was amazing, the sofas where so comfy, the kitchen well equip. Literally nothing bad to say about anything. The location was great as day drips to Tywyn, Aberdovey, Barmouth, Fairbourne all very close. We loved our stay and as a family with small children I would definitely stay here again as we felt so safe and there was no worries about the children running out into a busy area. Recommend 100%

The only thing I would have liked was for the bathroom to have been warmer as there was no radiator and the towel rail took some time to warm up.

The setting was beautiful. It was such a relaxing place to have a holiday with hardly any traffic and a five minute walk through the fields to the stoney beach. The accommodation was simple, clean and comfortable and Swancott Pugh, our host, couldn't have been more helpful or welcoming.

I genuinely cannot think of anything negative to say.

The ambience of the place, the geniality of the host, the location, the views, the SUNSETS, the sky at night (so many stars) and the excellent value for money. We visited to attend my Mothers funeral, but our host made our stay a memorable one, and we will definitely be back.

Nothing to dislike.

Very comfortable, well equipped farm cottage. Hostess very hospitable and provided us with cake and Welsh fruit bread on arrival. Look forward to our next visit.

We were reluctant to leave!

‘Plas Y Nant’ combines coast, countryside and a traditional farm location against the beautiful backdrop of the mountains of Gwynedd. We received a warm Welsh welcome from the owner. The accommodation is warm and spacious, extremely comfortable and very well equipped. A real home from home. An added bonus was that the TV was much larger than our Home TV Screen! The views from the window were stunning and we enjoyed seeing the sheep and lambs. Despite Storm Eunice we had a brilliant week with plenty to explore in the area.

It can be a bit tricky to pin point the location on the sat nav. The final cottage point was mixed up and led us to the neighboring street but they were aware of the problem and pointed us in the correct direction.

Brilliant location with great views. We took a hike up the hills as well as walked along the beach. There were sheep by the windows. Its a very nice cottage and wonderful to spend time in with the family.

The owner was lovely, location was great just a short walk to the sea or the village.

The bathroom was nice and large but rather chilly when we visited in September as it only had a small towel heater. The kitchen was great but Swancot please buy a newer tin opener as we really struggled with the one we found there. The TV was nice and large but it does not work with wifi and seems to require a cable to connect it to the Internet router - this should allow use of smart tv functions like BBC iplayer etc. One disappointment but no fault of the property or owner was that the local council decided to shut the famous Barmouth bridge for winter renovation the day after we arrived - had to use a lovely little ferry instead though so still great!

Very friendly and welcoming host! Very bright location near a farm and shingle beach. Lovely courtyard to sit out in with sunset views. Good shared laundry facilities. Spacious inside. Lovely modern kitchen. Great lounge with big TV and wifi. Comfy bedrooms. Very effective electric storage heating. Cute sheep outside our lounge window!
