Had a lovely weekend stay. The accommodation was home from home. The robes and towels provided for the hot tub use was great. The use of the leisure park was a bonus as it was next door, very quiet. Lovely walk to the beach and surroundings. 10 minutes out of Caernarfon town were Tesco and Morrison for food shopping and fuel. All 7 of us would definitely recommend.

This time last week we were, sadly, returning home from an absolutely brilliant week in Gwyddonfa. Eight of us, so the house was full, ages from 3 to 76. We didn’t see a cloud all week, amazing beach a hundred yards from the door, house exactly as described and seen on the website, with the bonus of the hot tub. Handy shops for newspapers, ice creams, fish & chips, odds and ends and beach paraphernalia, as well as a cafe. The local airport with its museum and cafe was a surprising treat, again within walking distance. Helicopters and light planes coming and going very frequently, and the museum staffed by a real enthusiast whose passion was inspiring.
There were a couple of very minor things, shower drain in family bathroom clogged up on day one, and the door of the en suite impossible to close. (We may have celebrated our Golden Wedding last year, but I still don’t want to hear every bathroom noise, and neither does he!) On the subject of loos, the downstairs one had no lock, though it looked as though a little bolt used to be there. We found only one hand towel and wondered if there should have been more, but other towels were plentiful. I also wondered about a first- aid kit? This only came up because my son was stung by a lesser weever fish during an early morning fishing expedition. He googled it of course, and the main treatment is immersion of the site in very hot water, so there was nothing we needed, but it was just a thought. We’ve usually found them in caravans, first-aid kits that is, not weever fish! And being a full house, we were using the dishwasher twice every day. Might it be worthwhile to provide more crockery and cutlery?
But these little points in no way detracted from the wonderful time that we had while staying in Gwyddonfa. We would recommend the house to anyone for a holiday, especially an all-age family get-together, as it’s so spacious and well appointed, and we may well return.
Thank you to everyone concerned in making our visit so enjoyable.

We had a wonderful holiday in Dinas Dinlle. All the facilities at Gwyddonfa were excellent, especially the hot tub. We were out every day enjoying the beautiful countryside so weren’t concerned with the outside space, the decked and paved back yard was adequate for our needs.
We had a much needed break in 5* accommodation, diolch yn fawr.

Just back from a week’s stay with extended family. Very high standard accommodation for a reasonable price. So clean and comfortable. It really was like a home from home. Plenty of everything, all spotlessly clean. If I went again I’d take some big mugs as those tiny ones are a bit frustrating! No complaints though and we were so impressed with everything.

We are just back from a week at Gwyddonfa and can not recommend it enough. The house was spotlessly clean and well laid out. We were a group of four adults and three children, the layout allowed everyone to have their own space. The beach is within walking distance and is beautiful. We arranged quite a few excursions for our week and found the house central to where ever we wanted to go (1/2hr to most places…Snowdon Mountain Railway, Greenwood Farm Park, Ribride speed boats). Our first visit to Wales but hopefully not our last! Honestly can’t recommend Gwyddonfa enough.
Lynn Davies
Very enjoyable short break,House was very good spotlessly clean and had everything you could need,staff at the caravan park were very helpful,location is very good and use of the park club was good.

We had a woderful family holiday last week in Gwyddonfa. The accommodation was superb. My husband remembers the house when it was the home of his grandparents. How different it looks now! The house was well equipped and the hot tub was a luxury. Just a few suggestions: hooks on the bathroom door would be good; the top room ideally should have an en suite facility; a small grassed area in the back with a clothes line would be helpful but these are only small points. We had a wonderful holiday. Thank you.

We had a fabulous time as a family in this gorgeous cottage which was our first family holiday for 2 years. The location is perfect for the beach which our 2 grand-daughters aged 3 and 6.5 had a ball walking to and picking shells and stones on. We all loved the hot tub which is maintained very discreetly every morning. The cottage is very spacious and was very well equipped with everything you needed for self catering for a large family/group as there was 8 of us for part of the holiday. Louise was great in sorting out the booking in 2021 to communicating just the week before with some minor changes. The staff at Dinlle holiday park next door were really helpful especially Ann who gave some great advice as we are looking at caravans there. Being able to access the park clubhouse was great they do lots of activities for both adults and children and the staff were very friendly. We had some wonderful meals in the Black Boy Inn (Caernarfon) as well as the Braf cafe just down the road from the cottage who do wonderful cakes. We all thoroughly enjoyed our staff and no doubt we will be back.

What a fab house! I booked here for a weekend with the girls and it did not disappoint. The house was beautifully decorated, extremely clean and had everything we needed for a weekend stay. We will definitely be booking again.
Lisa Jones
This was my third stay at the house (although with a different group of friends this time) – as with both other times I’ve been i had an amazing weekend. The house is beautiful – perfect set up, perfect location, spotlessly clean and everything you need for a break away. Hopefully it won’t be too long until i get to come on break number 4! Thanks again 🙂

We’ve just returned from a weeks stay & the house definitely lived up to our expectation, it was cosy, clean, & very well equipped with everything you would need, the hot tub robes and towels were an additional added touch.
Our only negative would be the outside space, it’s very stark & needs some greenery, especially with all the out buildings around the parameter. There needs to be more outside lighting, especially when you want to use the hot tube in the evening when its darker nights.

Gwyddonfa was magnificent. We couldn’t want for anything else from a holiday cottage. It was absolutely huge and perfect for a family gathering.
The hot tub is lovely after a long coastal walk. It is a wonderful touch and is kept in good working order daily.
The location is somewhat enviable. I wish I could move my house here. Dinas Dinlle is one of the most stunning beaches that we have come across in the uk. There is a wonderful chippy just a 5-10min walk from the cottage. There is a cozy cafe called Braf just steps away too serving the most wonderful homemade Bakewell tart.
The location was superb for visiting zip world’s Bounce Below, which we would 1000% recommend. We also loved the Sygun Copper mines, the village of Beddgelert where this is located is beautiful and full of wonderful eateries. Caernarfon is a very short drive from the cottage where there is a selection of restaurants in a modern marina by the castle. There’s plenty of restaurants in the town itself our favourite was The Blackboy Inn which served traditional fayre. We booked before hand and would recommend doing this due to the restaurants popularity.
There is a Morrison’s, Asda and Tesco in Caernarfon which is exceptionally handy for the self catering aspect of our holiday. The kitchen of the cottage by the way is amazing. I couldn’t think of anything else that we could have needed and everything was spotless and in good working order. It’s hard to describe the holiday house as it must be seen too truly appreciate its size and special touches. Everything has been thought of from the high standard decor to board games! The cleanliness really stood out for us the whole family said the same! We also loved the views from the house, we truly felt as though we were away from the rat race! Away from our very busy life and away at last from our own familiar 4 walls at home. We would recommend for any special family gathering.
The home is next door to the caravan parks reception, they are so polite and helpful. The bar is a few steps away from the house which is a bonus too!!!
To add for any aircraft enthusiasts, Air World is a walk away. We walked from the house on a sunny day which was a beautiful stroll. We stopped in the air ambulance cafe after a visit to the air world museum. We even saw some air ambulances take off, which our daughter loved.
What more can you want mountains in one direction, the beach a few hundred metres away and wonderful welsh hospitality!!!
We will be back for sure. Thank you for the most amazing holiday!
J Collins
Absolutley loved our stay and everything about the house and the booking experience!
The house is beautiful, spacious but cosy and ideal location – with beach, chip shop, bar within walking distance. It had everything we needed and more, with lovely little touches like providing robes for the hot tub!
Would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning. Thank you
Andy Dodge
The interior of the hours is great, the outside is what it is due to the location. Nice and close to the beach which is ok but not as nice as some of the beaches further afield. The owners and staff were very good as was the hot tub outside. Bar less than 30 metres away which was handy. Village very small and quiet. Would recommend Dioni to anyone and the house was excellent value for money.

We had a fantastic family holiday here in July. Long awaited after having to postpone for a year. Louise was fantastic throughout and changed our booking quickly and without a fuss.
The property is very spacious and has pretty much all you will need for a stay. I would definitely say it is the best equipped self catering property we have every stayed in. The bedrooms are mostly spread out over the floors meaning our grown up children had their own space.
The hot tub was great and was quietly seen to every morning between 8.30 and 10am. The dustbin was emptied regularly too.
There is a shop just up the road for essentials, with 2 cafe’s and another to open when renovated. We walked to the Air Ambulance Cafe and had a lovely lunch outside to support them.
We would highly recommend both Dioni and Gwyddonfa. We will definitely be back at some point. Thank you!

Hi there we are just back from our holiday and absolutey loved the house. Great space and lots of equipment in there. I can’t think of anything we needed that wasn’t there. The wine opener broke so I replaced and mentioned to the staff on checkout, they said they would check it. I also mentiond that the en-suite had slow drainage problems, again they said they would check it out.
One bit of feedback would be that there are no hooks on the back of the bedroom doors to hang things up. This was pretty frustrating especially for the double and bunk room, that had absolutely no storage at all.
Other than that it was a great holiday home, and being literally 1 minute walk to the beach was a bonus.
Thank you for a wonderful stay, we hope to be back.
Vicky
Beautiful house and perfect location, quiet with a beach and countryside on your doorstep. Perfect break for families with dogs. Hot tub was a lovely treat after being out and about all day. Loved it.
Tracy Livesey
We had a great time at this beautiful property and would definately recommend it.
It was just the 2 of us and our dog that stayed so we had lots of room, but it would be lovely to share it with more family members once restrictions are lifted.
The house is nicely decorated and very comfortable with everything we needed. The hot tub was a real treat…even in the rain one day and was tested every morning without disturbing us at all.
The staff in the holiday park next door were friendly and helpful and Dioni were great with sorting out changes to our booking a few weeks before.
Jo Buckley
What a fabulous house !! Everything was spotless! Towels,robes bedding everything was to the highest standard. Hottub was looked after daily. We will be back without hesitation! Love love love it. 😊😊😊
Naomi Robertson
Gwyddonfa was perfect for us being 100 yards from the beach. The house was spacious and comfortable and the hot tub was lovely. It would have been helpful to have some information in the house about WiFi etc. But as we were the first guests after lockdown was lifted we did not mind

Gwyddonfa was the ideal place for us to spend a difficult bittersweet week as a family. The house has been completely re styled very tastefully since my childhood days.. The bonus of course was the hot tub. Hopefully would like to return next year. Diolch yn fawr.

Just arrived back after a weeks stay, the cottage have everything you could need and more, the cottage was spotless, I would recommend that you put up an outdoor washing line, it would save you a fortune with guests not having to use the dryer provided, also place an awning paver the hot tub, will definitely be coming back.
