Take a look at what our guests say...
I’d love to share with you some of the wonderful reviews our guests have said about their stays at Tyddyn Sydney Bach. It makes me so happy to read each review and see how much our little cottage has been a part of so many special memories.
Many of our guest reviews mention how Tyddyn Sydney Bach is a cosy and relaxing haven, perfect for a peaceful holiday for two. William and I always aim to keep the cottage spotlessly clean and well-equipped, so it feels like a home away from home. And, of course, the lovely garden adds to the charm!
Our location here near Bangor, just a stone’s throw from the beautiful Menai Strait, is something many of our guests appreciate. Guest reviews reveal that our guests love being close to the mountains, the sea, and all the historical sites that North Wales and Anglesey have to offer. It's always a pleasure to suggest places to visit and dine – there's so much to explore around here!
What truly warms my heart is when guests come back to visit us again. Some even call Tyddyn Sydney Bach their 'happy place', which is the most wonderful compliment. It feels like welcoming old friends each time they return.
Our reviews shown below are a treasure trove of kind words and memories. From couples celebrating anniversaries to those simply seeking a tranquil getaway, each message is a reminder of the special moments shared here.
I hope this gives you a little glimpse into the experiences that await at Tyddyn Sydney Bach. William and I would be delighted to welcome you and help create lasting memories for you too.
Best wishes,
Les

Super Upgrade on an Already Excellent Cottage
We recently stayed at Tyddyn Sydney Bach for the 4th or 5th time and we’ll be back there again in July. As usual, the place was spotless, fully-equipped and welcomingly quiet, especially important for people who live in the noisy city, as we do. Again, as usual, Lesley was around to ensure that nothing was amiss, and was always available to provide that extra service that we’ve become used to here, which is obviously why we return so frequently. One thing we were not expecting was the new extension which means that there is now a separate space for the bedroom, which gives onto the garden and the woods, and this also benefits guests by freeing up some space in the lounge, space which is filled by two super comfortable sofas. We come back here because we know that Lesley’s attention to detail is second to none and that all we require will be provided. We love it here!

Worth Every Penny!
From the moment we met Les, she continuously went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable. She showed us how everything worked which was helpful. It was the small touches e.g. plant, milk, oranges and biscuits that touched us as Les wanted us to feel at home straight away! It was really appreciated. The folders in the cottage to provide us with ideas on places to visit was really helpful too! Thank you Les for making our 2021, we will definitely be returning in the Summer!!

Perfect!
Just back from a week’s stay at this perfect little cottage and can honestly say it is the best self catering accommodation we have stayed in. Spotlessly clean, every amenity, comfortable- we really didn’t want to leave this morning! Very much looking forward to visiting again next year.

Immaculate, comfortable property
Location (edge of Bangor North Wales) has Snowdonia and Anglesey within easy reach. Supermarket 5 minutes away.
The property was furnished to a high standard and the very hospitable owners made the stay most enjoyable.
The garden is planted with lawn and trees which made for a very tranquil setting.

Perfect in every respect.
This was a return visit and although we knew what to expect we were very impressed with the change to the property since it has been extended , providing a separate bedroom. The cottage is absolutely beautiful and very comfortable, a real home from home. Being able to walk around or just sit in the garden is so relaxing and adds an extra dimension to your holiday. Les is a very welcoming host and thinks of everything to make your stay the best it can be. The location of the cottage is ideal as it is within easy reach of so many things to see and do.

Very Comfortable and Thoughtfully Appointed Cottage
Very comfortable and thoughtfully appointed cottage in a lovely setting. Despite the weather, we have had a great week exploring an area we have never got to before. Bodnant Garden was the highlight - it didn't rain until the evening! Big bath rowels - Hurrah!

What an Amazing Wee Nook!
Les welcomed us early Saturday afternoon and proceeded to give us the most usefully comprehensive introductory show-around of Tyddyn Sydney Bach. Within an hour of arrival we were graced with the welcome of a pheasant and a jay. In the days since we've heard song thrush, siskins, blackcap and all the usual feathered thugs of the garden. During our stay we've visited Menai Strait, Isle of Anglesey (a red squirrel stronghold), Llandudno, Portmeirion and Bethesda (for ZipWorld Velocity!). Only one day was shortened due to it dinging-it-doon (raining) but we managed to complete the dune walk near Newborough to Llanddwyn beach (Anglesey) with our getting soaked. Thanks for your hospitality and enjoy Summer 2024!

Gem of a Cottage Set in Beautiful Grounds
Tyddyn Sydney Bach is a gem of a cottage set in beautiful grounds. Les is a first class host, always available when needed - thank you. Clean and comfortable, we look forward to returning. Hopefully to explore the gardens in better weather and visit more of the wonderful area. Ticked off walk at Aber Falls, Penrhyn Castle, Plas Mawr at Conwy, Bodnant Gardens, spectacular end of October and Plas Newydd.
