Reviews
First of all , parking is wonderful and access to the apartment very good- not to mention the views - the telescope was a nice touch as well as the wealth of literature and information about the area. There is a little welcome pack of bara brith, chocolate and Welsh cakes provided- nice touch ! A carton of milk in the fridge would be much appreciated . The apartment is spacious with comfy furniture - the bed is vast ! But , too many shortcomings - the shower floods the bathroom floor, very limited storage space and plug sockets in the kitchen. You have to unplug the kettle to plug in the microwave ! It’s hard work finding the correct oven instructions and baking tins were in need of renewal . No dish cloths or washing up sponges provided and ONE TOILET ROLL provided. Really - how cheapskate is that ? Storage space for clothes in the bedroom was inadequate- plenty of hanging space , but, no drawers fit jumpers, underwear etc. It was very quiet and peaceful and an excellent location for the area - we enjoyed the Visitor Centre - good video! Staff were friendly and helpful. With a bit more effort the apartment could be superb - come on guys , support local businesses - put in hand and body wash made locally not something made in Belgium ! I tried to contact Sykes Cottages when we were there about the shower - no response or to my written crit.- won’t book with them again .
We originally booked another apartment in this complex but unfortunately we could not get the hob to work. This spoiled our first evening's self catering meal. After reporting it to Sykes Cottages we were informed that an electrician would be available for 48 hours and we were offered Bendigeidfran as a replacement. The apartment is advertised as 'luxurious' and whilst initial impressions seem to support this a closer inspection revealed it wasn't quite so. The main problem that that there was nowhere to store food and we resorted to a cardboard box under the sink. Although it's advertised as 'disabled friendly' apart from the cutlery drawer all the other cupboards are at or above shoulder level. The hot water takes an excessive amount of time to arrive resulting in a significant amount of waste water. As mentioned in another review there is insufficient cleaning items and rubbish bags provided and there is the bare minimum amount of cutlery. Altogether a very disappointing holiday
