The Beach House Criccieth in Criccieth | Must-See Gwynedd Hot Tub Cottage

About The Beach House Criccieth

The Beach House Criccieth is a stunning four-bedroom holiday home on the Welsh coast. This spacious property sits in a quiet residential area with spectacular sea views across the bay to Criccieth Castle. Just a two-minute walk from the beach and promenade, it's perfectly positioned for families wanting to explore North Wales without constant driving.

The location is brilliant. You're a 10-minute stroll from Criccieth's town centre with its shops, pubs and the famous Cadwalader's ice cream (worth the holiday calories, trust me). The area offers easy access to Snowdonia National Park for hiking, while Porthmadog is just 5 miles away and the Italian-inspired village of Portmeirion only 8 miles. Everything's within easy reach - you can park the car and forget about it.

Accommodation includes a ground floor super king-size bedroom with en-suite bathroom, two double bedrooms and a family room with quad pod bunks - perfect for kids who'll fight over the top bunk. The house comes fully equipped with everything you could need: woodburning stove, well-stocked kitchen, WiFi and plenty of books, games and DVDs for those inevitable rainy Welsh days.

Nearby attractions include Dylan's art-deco restaurant (2-minute walk), Criccieth Castle (5-minute walk), Portmeirion (15-minute drive) and Abersoch's beaches (30-minute drive). The little train at Porthmadog offers fantastic mountain views without the hiking effort.

The Beach House Criccieth is ideal for multi-generational family holidays. With space for 10 people, off-road parking for 5 cars and a hot tub for evening relaxation (just don't use it after 11pm or you'll wake the neighbours). The enclosed garden even attracts visiting rabbits!

The Beach House Criccieth Reviews

Very well equipped and we liked the absence of dos and donts. My 20 month old granddaughter loved the garden and slides in particular. The garage too offered a great wet weather play area for all. The house was particularly great for my disabled sister who has stayed with you before. If possible a little more storage for clothes in the upstairs bedrooms would have been useful. Overall we had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Beach House.

Well equiped, comfortable holiday home with amazing views. We had a wonderful holiday.

Beautiful property. Everything that any holiday maker could wish for. Spectacular views overlooking the sea.

Abigail

This is an absolutely beautiful home in an idyllic setting. Excellent for families. We had an absolutely wonderful time!

Loved staying here, instant calmness when you walked in with outstanding views, just perfect

Sharon

A grab rail would be great in the on suite bath in the downstairs bedroom

This is an amazing holiday home in great location with view over the sea. It's so good I nearly didn't leave a review, so I can keep it to myself. The outside requires more work, but it's totally fine with a jacuzzi to boot the owner's state it's a work in progress. The faultless interior and amazingly well stocked equipment totally makes up for that. We will be coming back!

Stunning home, we thoroughly managed to unwind with stunning views of Criccieth coastline, enjoyed spotting the trains which came along each so often, and loved seeing bunnies hopping about in the garden in the morning and early evening. The hot tub was thoroughly used by us all, and a welcome sight after walking in this beautiful area. On an admin point, even though we booked at very short notice, all documents and cottage information came to us very quickly. Couldn't have asked for better.

Sharon

What a fantastic week we had from start to finish, from opening the door to The Beach House was a wonderful experience, all the facilities were just fantastic, very comfortable beds,the ensuite roomwhich my husband and I stayed in was very comfortable overlooking the sea,and waking up to that view every morning was just amazing, even the bunk beds were comfortable so I was told by the children, the garden was lovely not overlooked and the grand children loved the swings and the slides , the hot tub was amazing, lovely to come back to after a walk or cool evening, watching people play the pitch and putt and golf football was funnywe were going on it but the weather changed and it wasn't open! watching the waves roll whilst having breakfast was unbelievable, we did go down to the beach a couple of days the grandchildren loved it, the castle was enjoyable place to go to, Cadwalladers ice cream was very nice, also castle fish n chips were delicious

Alison

We have had a fabulous weekend. The house has everything you could possibly need. It was perfect for our young grandson, who enjoyed playing with all the toys provided. The bedrooms were beautiful with good quality bedding. The house is big enough that we werent on top of each other at all and evenings near the log burner were so cosy. I would love to return to Beach House and Criccieth. I have also been really impressed with the helpful staff at Sykes Cottages. Thank you to everyone for making our stay so perfect.

Amanda

Property was fantastic it was as was advertised. Very clean and everything you need for a comfortable stay.Lovely town within 10 minutes walk with a pub, restaurants, small supermarket, bakery and butchers. Trains 2 hourlyand Buses available every half hour. A restaurant also on the doorstep serving great food although abit pricey Dylans. Fantasic beach amazing colourful stones and lots of walks locally. It is also driving distance of many tourist attractions. Unfortunately the Hot tub was out of use the whole of our stay which was disappointing.We was made aware of the issue and the postal strikes delayed the parts arriving so not the owners fault.

Victoria

We had a fantastic time at The Beach House Criccieth. The house in a lovely quiet culdesac, close the beach. It offers fantastic views. We feel it is the perfect house for a family get together. The house is comfortable and has everything needed for a week away. The garage contains a playroom which my 3 year old Nephew absolutely loved. The hot tub is a lovely addition ad provided some relaxing times. The Master Bedroom is so luxurious, with a huge bed and beautiful ensuite and cracking views of the sea. My parents use this room and it is important to us that they are comfortable and warm which this room provides in spades. We love this house and will hopefully return again next year for our 3rd annual family getaway at The Wonderful Beach House. Thank you.

A very comfortable and well equipped house in a wonderful location. Everything set up for a brilliant family holiday. A parasol or awning on the terrace would be helpful in sunny weather.

Excellent property in a fantastic location with lovely views. It had everything we needed has been well thought out and a hot tub which was enjoyed by all of us. The train passing along the bottom of the enclosed garden was an added bonus for my grandson. We all had a great time exploring the area and found lots to do that suited my young grandchildren.

Our stay at The Beach House was wonderful, great location, plenty of space for 4 adults and 2 children, loved the hottub and the children were in their element on the garden toys. Very easy to walk to the beach, into the town area and Dylans. Good off road parking. Lovely views, especially in the evening sunsets. Children loved shouting train each time one passed!

Loved the location, the size and feel of the house. The kitchen was well equipped. Master bedroom and ensuite was super, lots of storage. Hot tub great addition. We felt the only negative was the amount of lose wires around the house especially with having a small child with us.

Beautiful, well equipped home. When we had a little issue, they sorted it quickly. The bed in the master bedroom is AMAZING! Soooo comfortable. We had a brilliant time, despite the weather and the hot tub, pool tale and jigsaw were very well used.

Victoria

A fabulous house. Great location with lovely views. The house had everything we needed and was perfect for a family holiday. We will definitely be booking this property again.

Suzanne

The Beach House in Criccieth is amazing, so well equipped with everything you would possibly need, a true home from home! Spacious, airy and a view that is just perfect. We saw dolphins most days out of the bedroom window!! Excellent village easy to walk to with the beach, Dylans Give it a tryits to die for book in advance tho!, footgolfkayakpaddle boarding on your doorstep. Few little pubs, butchers, takeaway, cafes etc in walking distance. Day 2 call from the owner which was lovely and always helpful when asked any questions. Perfect base for exploring North Wales and surrounding areas. Would I recommend ? Most definately! Thanks Claire and David we had a great time.

Totally suitable for an extended family holiday with plenty of space in the living area and outside for communal eating etc. More than adequate kitchen equipment and a plentiful supply of crockery, cutlery and glasses. Very child friendly inside and in the garden

The Beach House is a lovely holiday home well equipped, comfortable and clean in a great location with views across the bay and to the castle. The hot tub and private garden are pleasant and it is a quiet location despite being only a few minutes walk from the beach, access to the coastal footpath and the centre of Criccieth. Three generations of our family have had a great holiday here and we have booked to return again.

The Beach House must be one of the best properties in the area. An abundance of space, from the ability to park numerous cars, to the lovely gardens and terrace all flowing from the huge proportions of the house itself. The garden is an absolute sun trap from morning to evening and with hot tub and children's area really does cater for everyone. The enormous master bedroom suite was the biggest bedroom we have ever slept in and having only just got home, we are already looking forward to going again later this year. We couldn't recommend the house and its helpful owners enough, They really provide everything that one could possibly want for a relaxing family holiday.

Carolyn

A great holiday home, fantastic location and range of facilities

Really enjoyed our stay, in this fabulous house A well presented place. Beautiful layout, lovely view of the bay and beach. Would highly recommend Will definitely be returning Many thanks Simon.

We loved our long girlie weekend at the Beach House. Location is beautiful and the house has everything you could possibly need or want including a very nice hot tub. There is even a log burner in the conservatory to warm those chilly winter nights. Unfortunately, we had a few problems with it but the owner is aware and Im sure it will be sorted for future guests. We would def recommend.

Stayed here over Christmas for 4 days. Absolutely beautiful place, very clean, great facilities, everything you could need is in the cottage, was a perfect holiday, couldn't have asked for anymore, hotub was a delight, master bedroom was gorgeous with the bed being the most comfy bed I have slept in while away. Will deffo be booking to come back soon

Most enjoyable stay in this comfortable, well equipped house. Views out over the bay were amazing! Stargazing from the hot tub was an unforgettable experience. Perfect base for exploring coast and Snowdonia national park. Waking up every morning hearing the waves crashing on the beach which was a couple of minutes walk away was very relaxing. Courtesy call from the owners during the stay to see how we had settled in was appreciated. Would highly recommend this property!

Antony

The Beach House is really well situated and is clean,comfortable and provides all the facilities for a great holiday. In Criccieth which is an ideal base to explore the beautiful Lleyn Peninsula. The town has the basic requirements for shopping all within easy walking distance as well as a range of good restaurants, cafes, pubs etc . The atmosphere of this place welcoming as well as scenic.

Christopher

The house was fabulous, if i could say one thing it could do with a little paint ... The house was fabulous, if i could say one thing it could do with a little paint job here and there some parts of the house are looking a little tired, but apart from that its a superb house in a superb location will certainly be going back

From stepping in the door on arrival it felt like home. We had a great family holiday. The house easily accommodated 6 adults and a 4 yr old and due to the large array of toys, books, play things etc, was kept entertained all week. A huge thank you to the owners for allowing us to stay in their beautiful home. Thank you Sykes Cottages, our stay was a winwin for everyone

Tamara

Absolutely amazing view from our bedroom window, I could never tire of it and will miss it the most.

Katrina

Fabulous house everything we needed. Right next to beach. Would highly recommend

Absolutely amazing view from our bedroom window, I could never tire of it and will miss it the most.

Bethan

This cottage is even more beautiful than the pictures convey, and the owners had thought of everything you could possibly need and provided it. Waking up in the plush master bedroom, walking out into the garden, looking out over the sea and listening to the birds was a dream only rivaled by sitting in the hot tub in an evening watching the stars and having a drink. We adored our stay at the Beach House and are aching to go back already.

Lovely place to be in any weather, use the Cambrian Railway Line to visit Harlech, Barmouth, Tywyn. The lines ranger ticket is great value, or small group ticket. The Welsh Highland Railway or Ffestiniog make great all weather days. Plenty to see locally to the house and what a great house it was also! We had seven adults, the king size ground floor ensuite was great for our parents. I especially chose this house for its proximity and largely flat access to the promenade and beach. This made the wheelchair easy for dad. Then theres the lovely view from the house! Its a lovely quiet street so we enjoyed not being disturbinged. Great facilities in the house and garden highly recommend this place .

A lovely house in a great location a stones throw from the sea front. Well thought out with everything you could need to hand. Had the added bonus of 4 days of summer style weather in February which we really werent expecting.
