Y Ddinas Reviews

Emma
Absolutely loved the cottage! The views were stunning and it was so cosy inside. The hot tub was a real treat after a long day. Everything we needed was there, thanks a lot!
Lucy
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage! The location is fantastic, with breathtaking views that made every morning special. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog to run around safely. The hot tub was a lovely bonus, offering some well-deserved relaxation while admiring the scenery. We found parking in Tesco or Matalan just a short drive away, which worked out better than trying to squeeze into the seafront spots. The owners were super helpful and quick to respond whenever we needed anything. Definitely recommend!
Emma
Great value overall; the cottage was cosy and in such a peaceful countryside spot.

The location is spot on, with stunning views that really make the stay special. We left a quick note about some minor bits that might get overlooked, hoping it helps. The cottage’s design is smart, roomyand feels safe-great for my partner’s mobility needs. We felt cosy and warmand it was really nice to have the flexibility of a Monday to Saturday stay. Overall, a lovely experience!

Really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was charming, close to town, with lovely views. Just some minor fixes needed-wardrobe shelf, dishwasher shelf-nothing major. Plenty to explore nearby, will return!
