Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage consistently receives high praise for its cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being spotless and tidy. This indicates a high level of care and attention to detail from the owner.
The location is frequently highlighted for its stunning views and central position for exploring Snowdonia and nearby attractions. However, a few guests noted the proximity to a busy road, slightly impacting the score.
Comfort is generally well-regarded, with the cottage described as cosy and warm. However, there are a few negative comments about the double bed's condition, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
Facilities are considered well-equipped and adequate for a good holiday, but there are isolated reports of maintenance issues such as a fragile bed and a non-working dishwasher, which slightly lower the score.
Guests frequently mention the thoughtful gestures from the owner, such as homemade Welsh cakes and fresh flowers. While these gifts are warmly received, it is important to note that such personal touches, although common, are not guaranteed.
About this property
A delightful bungalow, with stunning countryside views, nestled on the edge of the lovely Welsh village of Talsarnau, four miles from the historic castle town of Harlech, and close to superb sandy beaches. This Talsarnau cottage is well presented, providing spacious family accommodation, a delightful home-from-home base for exploring North Wales. There are three comfy bedrooms, including a double, twin and single room, and a central bathroom, perfect for a relaxing soak after exploring this beautiful region. The kitchen is well equipped and provides all you need for a wonderful family holiday, with a separate dining room, and a light and airy sitting room. Here is the perfect spot to put your feet up and enjoy the views of the pretty front garden, and the countryside stretching across the Afon Dwyryd estuary to Portmeirion. The garden is a delight, the large, sloped lawn being great for children and the dog to play outside on, with mature trees framing the country vistas. It is a wonderful, inviting space where you can sit and relax with a good book, or enjoy a glass of wine late into warm summer evenings. This Talsarnau cottage offers easy access to wonderful countryside walks, and the delights of the Snowdonia National Park can be reached in just a short journey. Blaenau Ffestiniog is close to the property where zip world and bounce below are located. Dining out is more than possible in the local area, with some firm favourites including the Ship Aground and The Plas Restaurant in Harlech, whilst further afield reach Michelin Star Restaurant The Gunroom, Castell Deudraeth Brasserie, and Tonnau Restaurant in Criccieth, serving locally sourced ingredients with sea glimpses. Visit the local beaches, which provide some of the best sand dunes in North Wales. Secluded and tranquil, you can often walk for miles along them without meeting anyone. For thrill-seekers of your group, Zip World, including zip wire experiences and safaris are available, whilst for those who prefer leisurely afternoons, the Italian village of Portmerion and its host of shops, eateries, and pretty gardens, is a short journey away. This wonderful Talsarnau cottage, with some fantastic activities close by, is perfect for a family getaway!
Talsarnau is a small village situated between the mountains and the sea 4 miles from the town of Harlech in North Wales. The town is popular with golfers, who come to the Royal St. David's course, whilst the 7 mile long sandy beach is wonderful for family fun.

It is still the same, welcoming, clean and ideally situated for a relaxing holiday. Nothing is too much trouble for Menna the owner, fresh cream scones left ready for our arrival and a phone call to check everything is ok. Dog friendly and plenty of walks available down to the estuary with views across to Portmeirion. Highly recommended.
