Nice green space outside the front door parking for 2 cars.
Large bathroom with shower and bath, with a ground floor bedroom for elderly parents was perfect. towels supplied.
Garden plants needed a pruning to stop getting wet when walking past.
Poor tv signal in upstairs rear bedroom.

This is a really nice, budget accommodation in Northern Wales. Located close to a lot of activities, the house is small, but well equipped. The owners went above and beyond in certain respects -- for example, by leaving a PS3 in the children's room and lots of DVDs, which my daughter played with/ watched. Decorated with taste, the house has a well equipped kitchen and fully working utilities. The internet, which I noticed is frequently touch and go in that part of the country, also works really well. I appreciated the owners' thoughtfulness in leaving some electrical heaters -- the house is old and rustic, so it can get a bit cold in winter -- out, as they came in handy on cold, February nights.
I think that there are a few low- or no-cost things that could be done to improve the guest experience. Leaving soap in the bathroom and dish detergent and a sponge in the kitchen (there is no dishwasher, so dishes need to be washed manually) would be two such things. I would recommend the property for families with school-aged children, but careful with the stairs -- they are slippery and steep, so possibly an issue for toddlers and younger, as well as for folks with mobility issues.
The thing I probably disliked the most was the check-in experience. This property has the latest check-in and earliest check-out times I've ever seen (5 pm - 9 am). 5 pm in winter is effectively after dark. And trying to locate the key lock and to open it (while cleaning the cob webs around it) in the dark, while realizing that there was no phone number where I could easily reach someone for help, was an added stressor I could have done without after a long trip. In the end, we managed to open the (old and clearly in need of replacement) key lock, which came undone in my hand as I opened it. And we found a phone number where we left a voice mail and we did receive a call back (which we missed because we were in the house by that point). In any case, sending guests a photo by email in advance to show them where the key lock is located and what it looks like, as well as replacing the key lock with something slightly more modern (and potentially cleaning the spider webs around it so guests don't have to contend with the spiders at night :)) would make the check-in experience much more pleasant.

Thought of everything we could need in the kitchen and in all the other rooms too. Very central for the activities we intended to do. Very nice, clean, quaint property.
The bunk bed was a bit small for my adult son but in fairness we booked for 4 adults so it was probably thought we were 2 couples not parents with 2 adult sons!!!

Nice place, but beds were very uncomfortable and wasn't impressed that a carpet fitter turned up early in the morning to fit new carpets and we had not even got all of our belongings in the car!
Beds need new matresses

Location good
It wasn’t cleaned before arrival. Spent almost 4 hours at a pub at our expense whilst property was cleaned. We were only there for 3 nights and we had to rearrange our Friday night arrangements. The letting agency said they would pay for our Friday night meal but never did. Raised a dispute via Booking.com and they never responded. Lights in kitchen didn’t work, smell of oil in living room and sink in bathroom blocked.

Beds were a little uncomfortable.
