Penholm Reviews

What a beautiful house! Everything you could possibly need was provided for. When we needed to contact the owner he replied immediately. Would 100 recommend.
One of the best houses we have stayed in
Angela
Fantastic property for familyfriends gatherings. Bedrooms all beautiful and comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. Gamescinema room was great along with hot tub. Second time weve been and will no doubt be coming back.
Lovely house with everything needed to enjoy a great week.
Spent 7 days at Penholm and there wasnt anything lacking, everything you needed was there. Games room and cinema was a big hit with the grandchildren and mums and dads. Owners were easy to communicate with. The welcome hamper was a nice touch, would definitely go again.
Wow, what a property! My husband and I booked Penholm for a joint big birthday celebration with family and friends. There were 19 people in our group with an age range of 16 months to 71. There was something to do and somewhere to go for everyone. The rooms were spotless and the welcome pack and flowers that were left in the kitchen table were a lovely surprise. Stunning property with stunning views! Emma, the supervisor was only a quick text away if we needed to contact her. What a memorable time we had and we all absolutely loved it. Penholm, you svore 1010!
Caroline
Wonder week with friends. Everything we needed was available within the home , which was very cosy. Totally recommend
The good weather and tremendous scenery made it a great week for our experienced walking group of 12. Penholm was a great base and we were very comfortable there and the small number of glitches were rectified immediately.Well equipped accommodation and entertainment facilities second to none.
Stefan
Penholm was a lovely home for the whole group and we enjoyed it to be so close to Llandudno and Anglesey. So we could do a lot of things in a short distance. We arrived very early, but the cleaning crew was very friendly and gave us space in the living room. That was perfect after a 12 h journey. Many thanks for that.
Stacey
This was a last minute trip as our original trip got cancelled. Trying to find a property for 14 people and Penholme came up. Wow what a place. It had everything you needed. So clean and the bedrooms were beautiful. It smelt nice everywhere. The gamescinema room was a great added touch and kept everyone entertained. The owner kept in touch all week and answered any questions we had. Thank you so much, we will be back.
Gareth
We recently held our wedding at Penholm House with our nearest and dearest and it was perfect from start to finish. We held the ceremony on the roof terrace with views of the mountains and sea. It really is the most stunning property, the themed bedrooms were amazing and were to be our wet weather photography backdrops but the sun came out for us on the day & stayed for the week! We had photographs in & around the house & garden as well as at the Sychnant Pass and on the beach, the local area is beautiful. Our family & friends had a perfect week with us, there is something for everyone at Penholm, the cinema and games room were a real plus. Jason the owner was very helpful beforehand, sending us extra photos to help with planning and he also recommended an amazing local caterer. We will definitely back to celebrate future anniversaries in what has become one of our favourite places. Highly recommended.
Claire
We had a fantastic stay at Penholm House. We were a mixture of ages from 22 months up to 73 years old. The bedrooms were large and beautifully decorated. Everywhere throughout the house was lovely and clean. The cinema room and play room kept everyone entertained. I would definitely like to return to Penholm House and recommend this to all.
Beautiful holiday home. Lovely people. Thank you.
Stephen
The Hagan family party 17th March 24th March 2023 Our holiday at penholme was brilliant the children was amazed at the facilities in the games room, Jason was really helpful, the rooms were very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we would not hesitate to recommend this property to others.
Fantastic long weekend at this cottage, will certainly come back if we get the chance.
Jonathan
Fantastic and attentive hosts. The house was everything we had imagined and much more. Already looking at our return visit
Angela
Beautiful house and had best games room weve had in previous homes. Bedrooms are all themed and very comfortable. Kitchen very well equipped and spacious. I cannot fault the house at all. Hope to be back next year!
We stayed at Penholm over New Year as a group of 17 with ages ranging from 170. The house is very big with so many different areas and a lovely choice of bedrooms. It was spotless throughout and had every amenity you could possibly need during your stay. The games room was a huge hit with children and adults alike. Jason our host was quick to respond to queries before our stay and helpful throughout. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have already booked for next year. Highly recommended.
Great holiday in a great location plenty of places to visit and excellent accommodation in this lovely big house for us . especially enjoyed the big kitchen and cinema to watch the world Cup games thanks mark
Violet
Y celebrations perfectly thank you. We would only make one comment, concerning the dining room, where 18 of us had difficulty in fitting into the space around the table. However, overall, we were absolutely delighted with the property, its location and its comfort. Thank you
Lindsay
This is a fabulous house, full of history, and it is also in a delightful position with wonderful views of the sea and surrounding mountains. It is very comfortable and well maintained, with every amenity. It is perfect for a group holiday such as ours. The owners were more than pleasant, helpful and accommodating. We had a great time!
A wonderful week enjoyed at Penholm with family. We enjoyed the space, the games room and the jacuzzi very much. Its very well equipped, had everything we needed and was in a great location.
Tremendous property in a stunning location. Everything was perfect for our visit, including the weather! Was made even more special as one of our party realised her mother once worked there when it was a factory making dolls.
Donald
Really happy with the property and its great location, such a fantastic house with many areas to relax either with your groups company or on your own. The games room provided an excellent retreat with many activities to keep the whole group occupied but also together. We also appreciated the prompt response regarding the drain on our arrival along with the advice on what is in the area etc. We would definitely stay here again.
The house catered exceptionally well for the needs of 4 generations . We all had a wonderful holiday. The hosts pay huge attention to detail to ensure your time is well spent. There is plenty to do 247whatever the weather. As an aside note for future guests Tesco and Asda deliver to the property, but I would recommend you currently dont use Tesco. They didnt turn up when supposed to on Saturday evening. With no communication from them either, order eventually turned up following afternoon with half of order missing. I wholeheartedly recommend this property in north wales.
The house was beautiful set in a scenic area . . The games room ideal for all ages There was a couple of areas that a bit of TLC...such as the garden .
A great stay for all family, will definitely look into booking in future as it was so good. Variety of things to do for all of family, only suggestion that was brought up was the garden possibly being cleaned upfresh coat of paint of outside stairs, but overall a great stay!
Alison

Kathryn
The house was lovely it was very clean and everything we needed was provided, the hamper was a very nice touch and very welcome, also the owner text me on arrival to make sure we had gained entry which was nice only issues we had was the showers some were difficult to maintain temperature and if few showers were used at same time the water flow stopped for a while . Also the flooring under the pool table is damaged causing me to trip up and resulting in a very nasty bruised leg
Lovely property everything thought of. We were a group of women and we used the facilities. The bedrooms are large and the beds and bedding was top class.
What a week what a house. .. Amazing rooms with amazing views.. Every year we go Away as a large group and this house tops them all.. Had it all cozy lounges and amazing games and cinema room.. Everything was very clean and everything there you would ever need..
