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.

“Couldn’t wish for a better place to stay!”
My Partner and I recently stayed at Tyddyn Sydney Bach during our relocation to the area. The holiday cottage was absolutely perfect and beautifully furnished, it was exactly what we needed after hard days of work and exploring! Les, the owner couldn’t have been more helpful and lovely regarding information on the area and making our transition as smooth as possible. It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Tyddyn Sydney Bach and we have already told all of our family about the cottage ready for when they come and visit! October 2016
“Excellent”
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Les and William made us very welcome, with lovely flowers and homemade cake. The cottage homely and comfy, everything there what is needed, lovely and private as well. The cleanliness of the cottage 100%, and Les and William there if needed, Gardens well maintained, and relaxing to sit outside the cottage having a cup of tea or coffee. May 2016
“Recommend you stay.”
Stayed on my own for 3 months (February to end of April) at Tyddyn Sydney Bach and was really made to feel at home. Hosts Les and William couldn't do enough for you and are always on hand to resolve any issues you may have. The cottage has a great location for Bangor and for exploring North Wales, it is in a lovely setting and is equipped with everything you could possibly need, would definitely recommend and would stay again.

Warm, Cosy, Lovely and Very, Very Nice!
I stayed at Tyddyn Sydney Bach in 2014 and Les and William made it feel like home, they are the nicest landlords I have ever met. Their kindness and hospitality is beyond this world – not only because I was welcomed with a home made bara brith which was delicious. I would recommend the cottage to anyone who travels solo or couples who wish for a romantic, cosy stay in Wales. The interior is really nice, clean and was furnished and arranged very nicely. You will find anything you need and more (like e.g. warm, fluffy towels – to mention one detail). I hope that I will be able to go back soon.
“Wow!! Perfect in every way.”
I stayed at Tyddyn Sydney Bach while studying at Bangor University and loved every moment.
I had a very warm welcome, which included flowers and a home-baked cake, and I was immediately struck by the quality and comfort of the cottage.
Tyddyn Sydney Bach is situated in a peaceful and idyllic garden and was equipped with everything I needed. The local area is definitely worth exploring too.
Les and William were very friendly and supportive but also gave me plenty of privacy when needed.
I have recommended the cottage to a friend and she will be staying there during her course but I don’t mind admitting I am more than a little jealous! I would love to have the opportunity to return. Highly recommended.

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.
