Just spent another fantastic week in what we call our second home. Very well equipped with all that you need both inside and out. Located perfectly, walking distance from Black Rock Beach and local shop, chip shop and pub. The cottage is always clean and well presented and even a welcome tray and milk in the fridge. Cant wait for our return later this year. Thank you Jo and Paul .

This was my 3rd stay here and it won't be my last - the property is clean and well equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay - the beach is 5 mins walk away and is stunning! Lots of attractions nearby and Jo (the owner) couldn't be more helpful - my two dogs loved it too!

House easy to find with directions from owner. Well placed for visiting other areas of interest. Close to Blackrock Sands (5mts Walk) House itself was very comfortable with all modern amenities included. Rear porch very good particularly on sunny evening. Small store close by as well as fantastic chip shop. Well kept property , would be suitable for family with young children as well as older couples. Stairs may put some people off. Overall we had an excellent stay and enjoyed our time there.

Once again this cottage didn't fail. Everything you could possibly want or need. Its feels like home from home. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and perfect spot to all amenities. Welcome tray was such a thoughtful gesture and very well enjoyed might I say. Thank you once again for making our holiday perfect. Will definitely recommend and return.

Just back from our second break at Gorley and can't recommend it enough. Brilliant location, just a few minutes walk to the beach and ideal for Porthmadog, Cricceth, Black Rock Sands etc. Lovely property with everything you need for a very comfortable holiday. Can't wait to go back.

Gorlys is lovely, a real home from home. It's clean, well cared for and comfortable. It's also really well situated, the beach is 10 mins walk away, Porthmadog is 5 mins by car and Portmeirion 10 mins. If you want an easy week and a nice place to stay, this is the place.

Great clean and tidy house. Lovely hamper on arrival with treats for us and the dogs. Short walk to the pub and an amazing dog friendly beach. Lots of games, dvd's etc for those rainy days. Could not fault the place or the owners communication. Thanks so much we will be back.
