Overview
Property code: OC-WAG560

Enjoy a break with four friends in this idyllic countryside location boasting a lovely garden surrounded by woodland and a private hot tub. Just 3 miles from the cottage is the quaint seaside village of Nefyn which has a couple of shops and places to eat, as well as a pretty bay with azure blue waters. In 2.5 miles in the other direction is the vibrant market town of Pwllheli with another lovely beach, popular for sailing, and attractive seafront promenade. From the property, there are numerous walks and cycle tracks that wind into the countryside of the Llyn Peninsula, and 20 miles away is the spectacular Snowdonia National Park. Head there for diverse landscape of forests, mountains, and lakes.

Previously the gatehouse to a Victorian estate, this stone-built home is set over one level and is super stylish, while still retaining its character and charm. Head through to the bright and airy kitchen which has contemporary fittings and furnishings. A handy breakfast bar with stools means guests can entertain, socialise, and cook together. The charming lounge has a wonderful, warming wood burner, plenty of comfortable seating, and sliding doors that open up to the outside. Once you are ready for some shut eye, head to one of the delightful bedrooms with original windows. There is a superb king-size and a twin to choose from. A stylish bathroom boasting a wonderful free-standing bath completes the inside of the cottage.

Outside to the rear of this pretty home, is an enclosed garden surrounded by woodland. The patio is a real suntrap, with a table and chairs, and there’s a hot tub that provides a welcome place to relax after busy days exploring.

We had a lovely time on our holiday at lodge. We visited barmouth beach, black rock sands and drove to Angel bay to see the seals! The property is lacking on a few things but was warm and comfortable (apart from the bed). The hot tub was a nice luxury and after walking all day helped with aching muscles.

Poor value for money, some of the furnishings need replacing with a miss match of styles thrown together and poor quality. Dirty dishes. Most of the garden chairs are broken. Fridge is broken and leaks. Cleaners turned up an hour after check in. Didn't risk using the hot tub. Gardens needs a good clearing and cutting back. Would not return nor rRead moreecommend. Hide

An extremely disappointing property, given the price. It seems in need of some TLC, and the attention to cleaning needs improving; there were masses of cobwebs and spiders, especially noticeable if one moved any furniture. We never even considered using the hot tub! Also there were no instructions, for anything! The internet is shocking, very, vRead moreery slow and intermittent; I notice that the property description on the site now highlights that this is slow (which I'm sure it didn't when I booked), but it is virtually non existent. The images on the site portray a light and airy environment; in truth it is dark and hemmed in. The dense foliage, whilst providing noise dampening from the main road, does mean that it is not possible to even see what the weather is doing (other than rain). Also given that the two patio door windows in the lounge are single glazed, I wouldn't fancy being here in winter. Overall the property wasn't what I would call cosy or comfortable, especially the sagging main bed! Hide

Enjoyed our week at The Lodge but might not have booked if wed known there are no walks direct from the accommodation which meant driving everywhere. Something we usually try to avoid. Lodge is beautiful but sits next to a busy, noisy (and fast!) main road. There is only a small freezer section in the fridge, so perhaps bear this in mind when pRead moreacking food for your holiday. Enclosed, private garden was perfect for the dog (and us) but promotional photos suggest there is an open aspect. There isnt. Comfortable, spacious and private, the Lodge is a great place to spend a week, but the location wasnt for us. Hide

A beautiful, comfortable cottage, equipped with everything you need to enjoy your holiday.

Appreciate it was an old gate house lodge but every room had a small family of cellar spiders living in it, these do not appear overnight, for example 6 x 5cm ones in one bedroom alone, which was fun trying to explain to the 6yr old it was OK to sleep in there. I'd suggest the property had not been "properly" cleaned for a while. The gardens weRead morere overgrown and untidy I had to clear up all the leaves before we could use the patio or bbq area. It was obvious no prep had been done before our arrival. But hey the gardener turned up on the last day around 830ish to clean it all and cut it back and lawns etc during our usage time not changeover which was a surprise whilst standing in my pants getting ready looking out the bug full length window. Oddly zero property information at the lodge just a laminated sign on the bed telling you to remove bedding at end of stay, no information on hot tub instructions or usage, not sure if the hot tub was serviced with chemicals during the stay, something I check after each use at home, bit odd for a week. All above a shame really otherwise it would have been perfect. Lovely place and location and well equipped. Hide

House kept well, nice and clean upon arrival and a very generous welcome gift awaited us with the information folder (which was super helpful and even suggested some lovely places to visit).

We absolutely loved staying here! Fabulous location and super cosy and comfortable. The beds are amazingly comfortable, we have a chow chow which is a fair sized dog and he was fully enclosed not saying he wouldnt jump it, if need be but he was great all holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed this break and so did our 2 boys. We will be back! The Prosecco Read moreand cake was lovely upon arrival. The thing I loved most was not seeing anybody at all, no hassle, no stress, felt like my own home from home. Hide
