We had reservations about having a holiday this year, however staying at Gwern Tyno was just what we needed.. The cottage was beautiful and in a stunning location. The owner couldn't of been kinder and nothing was too much trouble. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.

This cottage was superb, the peace and quiet was incredible.. We wish we could say the same about the weather, but then it is Wales! We had a warm and friendly welcome with advice where the local shops were and where to visit in the area. We would definitely recommend the cottage, and are looking forward to visiting again.

Stayed August 2020: The location of this bungalow is ideal.. It’s On a farm up a single track road away from any main roads/traffic noise and a 5 minute drive to an expansive sandy beach . It’s easy to get to the Snowdonia National park by car too. We took our bikes and the owner allowed us to store them in one of her barns. The bungalow itself was immaculately clean, with plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Bedding and towels were provided. Cooking facilities were good, with plenty of kitchen equipment. There is a washing machine and washing line in the adjacent garden area which has a garden table for eating outside with views overlooking mountains. The owner lives in the house opposite and is on hand if you have any queries/issues. The shower hose started to leak on Sunday evening and a new complete shower unit was fitted by 10am on Monday morning. I would highly recommend this bungalow for location, facilities and cleanliness.

Janet is very accommodating and provided a lovely stay.. The mountainous views are fantastic and would recommend this property to anyone who wants the Welsh experience.
Mr Wood, August 2020
July 2020
This is a beautiful place to stay.. The views were terrific. Very lovely lady, Janet the owner. Could have done with a couple of little implements in the kitchen, potato masher, roasting tin. Nothing we couldn't live without. Would certainly recommend it. The children love the sheep. They played roly poly on the grass lawn.

We've just returned from a great week away, staying at Gwern Tyno.. When we first arrived we received a great welcome, and the owners were always very friendly and available if we needed anything. The cottage itself had everything we needed, had been fairly recently decorated, and was child friendly. The location itself was a great base for exploring north Wales. There is a single track road to the property, but this didn't cause us any issues at all. I would highly recommend the property, and we'll definitely be back.

The cottage was better than we expected clearly newly decorated and with a number of new fittings.. The owner was most helpful and welcoming making our stay all the better. Great location for travelling about the local area, would we stay again YES

Great if you want peace and quiet, the owners are freindly and their dog.ideal for snowdonia and local beaches. The cottage is very clean and tidy with very nice views.would highly reccomend.
Mrs Yeomans
June 2018
The cottage was beautiful, lovely and clean.. The beds were very comfortable. However. I must say the narrow road to the cottage did bother me. It is a one track road and steep drops.
Mr Stubbings

Lovely cottage, spotlessly clean with great views, would definitely stay again..
Mr Goode
June 2018
The only downside to this cottage and it is not of the owners doing is the single track road leading to the cottage.. No passing places!! The peace and quiet is surreal I woke at 1am with the bedroom window open and I thought I had gone deaf sooooo quiet and peaceful. this cottage ranks highly in my eyes and we have used Sykes cottages before.
Mr Collins

Mr Knight
May 2018
We had a great break at Gwern Tyno.. The cottage is in a lovely quiet location, particularly with gorse in flower down the valley, yet it is close enough to Colwyn Bay to make shopping and getting around North Wales easy. We would definitely recommend staying here to others!
Mrs Stewart
August 2017
Nice little cottage, has the essentials.. Wonderful views. Not far from the beach, but located on the hillside so not walkable with very small children (although plenty of parking space!). Helpful owner.
Ms Stacey

The accommodation was clean comfortable and well equipped. Cottage is next to owners' property but felt private with living room patio doors and seating area outside overlooking open countryside. Perfect location with beautiful walks through nearby woods and easy base to reach local beaches, stores and for exploring surrounding area and Anglesey. We had no issue with the lane, there were lots of places to give way but we didn't need to use them. Would love to stay again.

My daughter & myself spent a really pleasant week here recently. My daughter has special needs & is very fussy but she loved it here! Very clean cottage, extremely comfortable, all mod cons. Amazing views. Very helpful - but not intrusive - owner. I was initially worried about the road leading up to the property but didn't find it a problem. Close to many of North Wales' attractions.

Mrs Davies was very friendly and helpful.. Directions to the property were clear and precise. Would recommend this to anyone. The views are impressive and the location peaceful and relaxing. Convenient location for North Wales.
Mr Barrett

The cottage is in a really quiet location yet within easy distance of all the attractions this part of North Wales has to offer. The views from the cottage were lovely and it was very pleasant to sit and eat breakfast outdoors whilst looking at the view.
Mrs Andrews

This cottage is in a lovely setting with great scenery so we all had a very relaxing holiday here and found it very easy to get to all the attractions around the area. We all had a lovely week in North Wales.

Our stay here exceeded our expectations. It is a comfortable, well furnished, modernized, small cottage, adjacent to the owner's house. We walked the local footpaths and country roads, enjoyed the challenge of driving the narrow road out of Colwyn Bay, read books and generally relaxed. The owner was very helpful and we plan on staying there again on our next trip to the area.

Cottage ideal for David's holiday very rural location 5 minutes drive from Colwyn Bay. Cottage spotless can't. Praise property enough

June 2014
The photos on the internet are seriously misleading, the owners home isn't just 'close to' the cottage, it's on top of it, owners have a direct view in through the kitchen window. Kitchen floor covered in slug trails; nasty! Tried to contact owner on two numbers but no answer even though we were expected. We had had a long drive, were tired and upset so we went to Llandudno for the night and drove home the next morning. Worst non-holiday ever, wish we'd stayed at home.
Mrs Grogan
August 2013
This was the perfect retreat for a young family. The property was immaculately clean and well presented, with a swing and a slide in the garden that the children could play on. Perfectly located for all local amenities like Park Erias, the beautiful beaches, Welsh Mountain Zoo, plus only a stones throw from Llandudno. We will definitely visit again!
Mr Henshaw
June 2013
The location was perfect.The Cottage,scenery and the friendly reception upon our arrival and throughout our holiday was lovely. I would recommend it to anyone.

Mrs Colson

Just had a lovely relaxing week visiting the beaches nearly everyday along with the other attractions that are all a short drive away. It was just perfect and had a swing and slide in the garden, fantastic for 4 and 6 year olds.

Th cottage was lovely and the owner couldn't have been more charming and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our week here and would highly recommend it . A rural setting but within a short drive of all amenities.
Guest
November 2010
A lovely cottage in a beautiful spot, with very friendly and helpful owners. It is just a shame it is over half a mile up a steep and very winding single track road, which was blocked one day by sheep, and the next day by a lorry collecting logs which held us back from our day out by half an hour each time. If it were more accessible, or we were more used to reversing down hills and around bends, we would definitely return.
Ms Barnett

The location was beautiful. The property is very nice and the owners were charming, making you feel very welcome.

Beautiful view of the valley from the patio doors of the lounge.A friendly yet unobtrusive owner. To say that it is quiet and peaceful is an understatement. Just what we wanted.
Mr Barr
December 2004
An ideal location for touring area but if you have young children or teenagers nothing for them to do and its too far for them to walk at night to the town. Taxi service is good and reasonable. The Farmers market on Thursdays although limited was very good and good value.
