Family trip

We had an incredible week at the house. The hot tub was great to come home to after a busy day out walking and checking out the beaches. It was so handy to have a shop and pubs so close. The restaurant on the corner was lovely. We would definitely return

Great location for visiting north Wales

Lovely house. Very suitable for the mix of ages we had on our holiday. Lots to do in the area and if you have a car it’s a fabulous base. Hot tub a massive bonus at the end of a long day! Loved the toys and games and books for the kids and tea and biscuit treats for us. Diana is a great host!

Dolbear siblings away trip

We loved Awelon really well furnished and everything you could need supplied The courtyard needs some TLC it could be so pretty The1 downside was the outside bin it was full to overflowing when we arrived and very smelly due to the warm temperatures I did email hoping that it could emptied but nothing was done My husband had to push the rubbish down to enable us to use it Kind regards Glenys

Lovely New Year Break in Tremadog

We are a two families with 4 kids aged 6 - 10 and booked the house for a New Years Eve getaway. The house was lovely and had everything we needed, plenty of room, good sized kitchen with everything you would need (and more!), nice log fire and a hot tub. Slight negatives, the 2 rooms on the 3rd floor are in the eaves so have limited head room, but they do have ensuites! There's not a great deal of outside space, the court yard is fine for socialising, BBQ etc. On the positive, its situated in a nice square, there are 2 pubs within 20yds of the front door as well as a Spar shop. We had a lovely time and would definitely recommend.

Perfect family break

Fantastic family house - 10 of us, aged from 1-75, stayed for Easter weekend and the house was probably the best equipped I’ve ever experienced in a rental: from stair gates to games, heated drying rack and loads of films, there were so many items to make life easier. As other reviews said, it’s brilliantly positioned next to a great pub, a small Spar and a fab fish and chip shop which managed our order with no problems, despite there being lots of us on a busy weekend. Beds were great, bathrooms were clean and it was great to have so many, and everyone commented on how lovely the rooms smell! It was a short and flat walk to Porthmadog, parking at the house was easy, and Diana was really helpful with the only small issue we encountered (which was sorted straight away as she helped me find the right cupboard). If we ever get the chance to return, we definitely will.

Beautiful village square full of Welsh stone buildings. Our house stood proud on the corner and was everything the booking information said. Plenty of room for six adults and two children, with a hot tub as a bonus.

A fabulous house in a beautiful location

We have just returned from a wonderful stay in this beautiful house. It is beautifully decorated and furnished with really cosy feel. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and the hot tub was just the icing on the cake. There were 3 families and we had plenty of space for everyone. Tremadog is a lovely little town and the Spar shop was very handy just over the road. Porthmadog is also within walking distance with lots of gift shops, cafes and supermarkets. The house is in a great location for exploring, the beautiful Blackrock Sands Beach was only a 10 minute drive away and we had many days visiting Snowdonia, the scenery on the doorstep was fantastic. Very smooth and easy check in and check out, thanks for a lovely stay, hopefully we will be back one day!

Family Break

This property was perfect. It’s ideally situated in a lovely little hamlet, where there is 2 pubs, a spar and a lovely restaurant, and we used them all as they were all on our doorstep, literally! Black rock beach and walking up Snowdon are a must! We were 2 families, of 9 in total. Property was perfectly sized and comfortable. Clean and maintained! Hot tub, was also a nice additional touch, especially for the kids and after a long walk.

Great family house

We had a really good time in this house, it’s location is everything you could want - close to beaches and mountains. We unfortunately picked the wrong week weather wise and a small gripe would be that the house had no tumble dryer, ten peoples wet washing when the weather is bad is not great. However even this wouldn’t stop us returning in the future, Diana was very accommodating.

Lovely village with great amenities.

Excellent property for a large group. Very well positioned for easy access to the area. Excellent amenities in the Square spar shop 2 pubs and a restaurant. Everybody in the village very friendly and helpful. The house needs a bit of modernisation. The gas cooker if catering for a large number is inadequate.

Fantastic place

We stayed as a group of 10 and there was plenty of space for all of us! There are two pubs, a spar, a restaurant and chippy (amazing fish) all practically next door. We walked into Porthmadog for one day and got train to pwhelli - was very easy and about 15min leisurely walk. Lots of board games, books and even stair gates for children! All round awesome place to stay with great location and plenty of space. Loved the log fire in a chilly November

Great location, homely and comfortable, well equipped.

2 families of 4 weren't crowded at all in Awelon. Its homely, comfortable, well-equipped and even in August, the wood burning stove came in handy in the evening. Great location, 2 pubs literally on the doorstep, shop over the road for essentials (very expensive!), Porthmadoc only a 10 minute walk away through woodland or 5 minutes in the car. With so many great places to visit within an hour's drive, this cottage did have it all for us, location and comfort. Highly recommended.

Great Little House

Overall this was a great house. Its showing its age a little around the edges and needs some improvement works, especially round the bathroom areas. But don't let the rustic nature put you off, it was great for a weekend stay and we all enjoyed the house. Also, the pub next door does a great breakfast.
