John and I live here with our dog Blodwen (Sprocker Spaniel) . You would be sharing our home with us and all that goes with it, including the curious Blodwen!! The cottage is nearly 200 years old and cosy. You are welcome to use the kitchen to cook meals however you need to be aware that cooking is done on a wood fired Rayburn, which requires patience sometimes!! Guests should be aware that we do not have a microwave or TV. We like guests to treat our home as their home while they are with us and should you need anything please ask and we will do our best to provide it.

    I loved my stay with Jill & John ! Not only because of the perfect location to visit the north Wales, but also and above all because they are so welcoming, friendly and caring. It was my first roadtrip on my own abroad, and I felt like I was leaving a family at the end of my journey. I definitely recommend this stay !

    I absolutely loved my stay in the Pink Cottage! Jill and John were very welcoming and extremely helpful with information about the area. There is a wonderful atmosphere in the house, and the bedroom was beautifully prepared and very quiet, with a great view out to the sea. I also loved getting to know their two very friendly dogs! There are regular buses to Caernarfon (bus stop 4 minutes walk from the house) during the week if you want to use public transport.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

When do I pay?

Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?

Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
