Carreg Y Garth Reviews

Karley
Just spent a wonderful week at this beautiful property. The house is well equipped with some great added extras, loads of space and ample parking. The broadband wasn't working when we arrived due to recent bad weather in the area but this was dealt with and rectified swiftly by the owners. The property is centrally located for Caenarfon, Anglesey, activities and amenities and the views over the Menai Straits are stunning. We have booked to stay here again next year, thank you to the owners for a lovely stay
We had the most wonderful stay here for a special birthday ! Perfect for exploring the area or staying in to cook a meal. The views from the house are amazing. thank you.......
Thank you for a lovely stay. We were so lucky to book with 2 days to go after another company double booked us! So we were so grateful to find an even nicer place in an excellent location. The view was beautiful and house was perfect for us. It was extremely clean and well looked after. We loved the hot tub and the children had fun on the PlayStation car. This was our first visit to stunning North Wales and we are missing it already! Thank you so much for a perfect stay.
Excellent property, beautiful location. Some of the glasses hadnt been washed properly hence not full marks on cleanliness. But all in all a lovely break thank you.
Alison
House was in a great location for where we wanted to visit and with good amenities. Everything was easy to find and usable. The owners did not leave a contact number so we were unable to contact them whilst we were there but that didnt detract from our stay .
Rachel
We had a fabulous week, the house is in a great position with lovely views. Its a great house for families with secure gardens and lots of space. There is a travel cot with mattress and highchair although not explicitly mentioned in the listing so it is well equipped. Perfect location to explore North Wales & Anglesey.
Had a brilliant time. The house has a lovely location and there was plenty of space for us all. Amazing PlayStation set up with a racing chair was an unusual but much appreciated bonus. Bedrooms comfortable and the hot tub was appreciated by all. Could do with a few more mugs and a new bottle opener please. I would highly recommend to anyone considering a visit to North wales.
