Y Castell Apartment 3

Location was ideal for walking the coastal path and exploring local towns. Easy access to beach and train station, with parking outside property. Well equipped for self-catering, with fridge, freezer, microwave, oven, hob, dishwasher, plenty of utensils and pots/pans. Free Wi-fi and lots of TV channels. Views of the sea and the castle. Very clean throughout. Pleasant hosts who were easy to contact.

The only thing I would advise is that the flat we were in was on the top floor (so great views!) so there were two lots of narrow stairs to the apartment. Not a problem at all for us, but maybe something to consider if elderly.

I absolutely love this place. The owners are amazing and Happy back many times.

I like where it is situated it is clean tidy and has everything that you may need

Really convenient spot and had everything that we needed. Communication with the owners was very good with really quick replies to queries. Very good value! Always managed to park outside.

There was nothing for us not to like!

Really nice second floor flat. Well decorated and had everything that you would expect and hope to find in your home-away-from-home. Great views of the castle from the kitchen and the bedroom, and also views of the sunset from the lounge. The flat is situated in a nice location, just a 1 minute walk to the sea. Close to local shops and a really nice local pub where you can buy a pint for less than £4. There was always on street parking available in front of the flat whilst I stayed there. Criccieth is close to Porthmadog (you can walk there along the coast) and a 50 minute drive to Llanderis (which is a great starting point to climb Snowdon). My host was Elen. She was friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Even when I contacted her in a panic because I set the fire alarm off whilst cooking and was worried that a neighbour would call the fire brigade. :) I would recommend this property to couples or small families looking for a lovely location to explore north Wales.

The smoke alarms are sensitive and when they go off they are super loud, so beware of this. I completely understand the need for having smoke alarms in a rental property though, so this is not a criticism. I would recommend that if you cook anything on the hob maybe open all the windows in the flat first and put the extractor fan on full blast to prevent a very loud surprise.
