Barn at Ysgubor Reviews

Hannah
We had a lovely stay at Ysgubor Barn. The location was idyllic and it was very peaceful. The barn was with stocked everything you would need for a self catering stay. We also really enjoyed the hot tub. The only downside was the living room furniture wasn't very comfortable and could do with an upgrade. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and we would rebook.
Shannon
The views were lovely looking over the fields and we got to see cows often, which were very cute. Hot tub was lovely to use on the first night. Then told the second night couldnt use it because of upcoming storm did not come Doors were pretty creaky all night but that may be due to it only being single glazed barn as there was a draft from the closed window. The WiFi was non existent and signal was also non existent so couldnt really connect up to watch tv or anything other than the standard channels,
Really enjoyable stay, peaceful location with great views from the garden. Loved the hot tub too. The property is slightly dated decor wise but is spacious, well equipped and the owner is attentive and keen to provide anything needed. The kids found the wifi to be a little hit and miss but I didnt have a problem, we were also streaming on the smart TV every evening. Overall its a great property in a stunning part of the world. I wouldnt hesitate to book again.
Tracey

Excellent rural quiet & picturesque location. ..a good base for all the coastal towns along the North Wales coast.....all rooms very spacious & tidy.
All that's missing are some grab rails by the toilet in the down stairs bathroom.

Very good stay and brilliant service from the owner. My daughter's first holiday and one she will never forget. Thank you

Had a fantastic week, enjoyed the cottage and exploring North Wales.
Samantha
Lovely little cottage. Nice and clean and hot tub was great. Anwen the owner really looked after us if we needed anything. Thank you so much. Would definitely recommend!
Although we had what we needed for the weeks' stay, a few things were not as expected. The road leading to the property is a single track, very bumpy with overgrown hedges for a couple of miles. So this property won't be for you if you have a large car, unless you mind a few scratches. The property was average, a few broken bits when we arrived, blinds not shutting properly, towel rails and door handles hanging off. Sofa not comfortable, we were out most days to be fair, but the last day decided to chill, the wifi is non existent. The bonus was the hot tub though.
Anwen, was a great host & was available to answer any questions. The only drawback to the cottage was the poor access road which needs attention from the local council. That said it did not spoil our holiday.
Elizabeth
We really enjoyed our holiday in this cottage, it was very comfy and well equipt with the bonus of a hot tub. We had some lovely evenings watching the nearby animals and chatting with the owners . It was great to meet Anwen who I shared a sewing interest with!! Would not hesitate to return.
The cottage is spacious, wellequipped and the downstairs bedroom and shower room made it easily accessible for our elderly mum. The location is fairly remote and very beautiful the view from the terrace and the upstairs double bedroom is quite gorgeous, You do have to drive down narrow, winding, hilly, singletrack lanes to reach it, but we got used to that. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. Only negative is that dogs aren't allowed, meaning that the whole family couldn't stay. We would stay here again if we were returning to the area.
We had a lovely couple of days staying at the cottage. The house was extremely clean and wellequipped right down to extra games for the children. The house was warm and the hot pool wonderful! No complaints on that score at all. One suggestion of better information on finding the property itself. Given that I had the owners mobile number I was unperturbed when we got lost until I discovered we had no mobile signal. However, the local Post Office soon put us on the right track. Would definitely recommend this property and would be happy to return.
Francesca
We were expecting a farm cottage in the middle of nowhere. Which we got but that takes away from the accommodation. It was a lovely farm cottage with everything we needed. Clean and well equipped so we felt like we were on holiday, but relaxed enough to feel at home.
The cottage we stayed in was lovely . Anwen the owner was a lovely lady who couldn't do enough for us
The location was just what we were looking for peaceful
Spacious,comfortable well equipped cottage with everything provided for a great holiday. I also appreciated the fullsize fridge freezer which enabled us to stock all our family foods easily especially when you are feeding a family of 5, much better than some holiday homes which only supply a tiny freezer compartment which is neither use nor ornament. Our host Anwen is a lovely lady who was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
Fantastic cottage. Good layout with everything we needed. Perfect rural location that allows you to explore the North Wales coast from Chester to Caernarfon. Very friendly greeting with the owners on site to assist with any needs or offer suggestions. The hot tub overlooking the farms fields with grazing cattle while the sun sets was a great way to end the day!
