pretty much everything was fine, although room could have been a bit bigger.
Porthmadog High Street is 30 meters and both national and steam trains are within 600 meters of Tudor Lodge. The Tudor Lodge is a family run bed and breakfast.

Our room was really clean and comfortable with a lovely en-suite bathroom. It had kettle/tea/coffee facilities and the bed was so comfy.
The breakfast options were excellent, plentiful and very tasty. This accommodation is in a quiet position in the town but really close to all amenities and places to eat and drink. On site parking was a bonus and there was a lovely seating area outside.
On average, 3-star hotels in Criccieth cost € 122.47 per night, and 4-star hotels in Criccieth are € 152.97 per night. If you're looking for something really special, a 5-star hotel in Criccieth can on average be found for € 848.97 per night (based on Booking.com prices).
Host was helpful in supplying info in advance. Cottage was well placed for visiting the Llyn Peninsula. However, although the cottage was clean, there was an extremely musty smell which hit us as soon as we arrived and proved impossible to clear. It may have been damp. Also, although there was parking, the entrance to the drive way is quite narrow and certainly difficult to access as it is right on a bend in a busy road. As others have reported, the bed in the main bedroom is rather springy and a bit uncomfortable.

criccieth is a very small quiet place and facilities for eating out are very limited, especially if you have not had time to pre book.
All throughout the area some restaurants do not do food on mondays others not on a tuesday. we often had to travel into Porthmadog to eat.
Criccieth is very scenic, there is a lovely spot down by the bay by the castle to try to spot the Dolphins.

Criccieth is a pleasant quiet town with a nice beach and some individual shops, restuarants, hotels and plenty of cafes. It is a very good place to journey out from for the day.
It is easy to walk around and the castle makes a lovely view by the sea.
We ate in the Prince of Wales. Standard pub food, nothing fancy. The scampi and chips was good and the staff friendly. Some interesting old photos in the pub as well as the history of the very old beam you can see in the upstairs dining area.
We had a birthday meal at the Caerwylan hotel. Our later (8pm) booking meant that within half an hour we were the only diners (everyone else had dined earlier). When I booked I emailed that it was a birthday celebration but was told it would depend on how many guests are in the earlier slot! I went ahead with the booking as I didn't want to drive anywhere. The food was nicely presented and the vegetables the best cooked I have eaten out for a long time,. My husband also highly rated the dessert. We were however disappointed with the lamb rump - mine was not that tender and somewhat fatty and some gristle. Little flavour. We have had lamb rump at a very good pub restaurant on Dartmoor and it had good flavour and tender. They also did not have oat milk which has become a common stock item in a lot or hotels, restaurants and cafes. We had to find a member of staff to pay the bill as we had coffee in the bar area and did not see anyone after that. We had to go and find a staff member! So Criccieth lovely but the 4 star rated hotel not brilliant.
We can recommend The Goat - recently refurbished - a lovely pub about 3 miles from Criccieth and apparently there is another one further up the coast near Nefyn which we will visit on our next stay.

While Criccieth isn't large, being based there gives you access to explore the whole of North Wales and make some excellent walking excursions in Snowdonia. Criccieth has an excellent beach and is a short drive from many other wonderful beaches. The castle is also a nice place to stop if you have a couple hours to spare.

The iris is a fantastic property .
The iris is a fantastic property . The views are absolutely amazing. Its next to the beach. Above the Cadwaladers and across from the fish and chip shop. What more could you want 😂 Parking is plentiful.
If you get the opportunity take a drive to Black Rock sands which you can drive on. The sunset from there is fantastic.
Mark and Louise went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. The room was exceptionally clean, beautifully decorated with personal touches giving it a lovely homely feel. A large comfy, cosy bed and settee looked out onto the beach and coastline. An ensuite with a shower was also very clean light and airy. The breakfast was fabulous served to perfection so no complaints there.This is a 1st class B and B ran with excellence by the hosts, and we would highly recommend it to anyone to stay at if you thinking of visiting Criccieth
The breakfast was excellent, with plenty of choice and the location was excellent too. It was a 2 minute walk to the sea front and easy access to the whole Llŷn Peninsula. The owners were lovely and friendly and greeted us with some fantastic Bara Brith (traditional Welsh tea bread) on our late afternoon returns. The whole B&B is spotless and highly recommended. When we return to North Wales this will always be the first place we check for availability.
The location of the property made it quiet and a perfect place to relax. However if we needed anything Criccieth and Porthmadog were close by. Our dog loved the garden and as it was fully enclosed we could let her run around freely. Everything we could need was available at the cottage and we could see that previous feedback from other holidaymakers had been acted on, which had made improvements to the cottage and the garden.
Mark and Louise infused our stay with care and quality... our room was spotless with e erything we needed for our short stay in Criccieth. The breakfast was excellent, top quality ingredients and presented with real hospitality... White linen, wonderful service and thoughtful extras like handwrapped and home made cake to help ourselves to as we left for the day... thank you both! We look forward to returning.
A stunning setting in Criccieth, on the quieter side of the castle and an absolutely immaculate room, on the top floor with beautiful sea views.
Clearly huge amounts of love and care has been put into the presentation of this B&B; really pretty room and so clean that it looked brand new, lovely bed and delicious breakfast.
I will definitely return!
Room nice and clean and comfy bed. Enjoyed breakfast every morning. Guest house was good base to explore area and Criccieth was not far to walk to maybe 5 minutes. We enjoyed the Prince of Wales Pub and the curry restaurant. Plenty of places to eat. Hosts were informative on where to visit which helped us decide what to do on our stay.
The Tudor Suite is brilliantly decorated and furnished in the Tudor style, but with all the mod cons you would expect in a high end hotel.
The view of Criccieth Castle was breath-taking.
Ample tea and coffee making equipment and biscuits and welsh cakes too.
Sian and John were wonderful friendly hosts. Nothing was too much trouble.
lovely comfortable clean apartment with wonderful views, just what we wanted for a quiet relaxing break. The bed has huge and comfortable and the room was quiet at night even with window open.
30 minutes from Betwsy Coed (a lovely pub/hotel where local homemade food was available at lunchtime).
ideal base for snowdonia.
The friendliness of the staff, the breakfast, the cleanliness of the room - all of these were excellent. They also have a lounge if you want to spend your evening playing cards/board games. It is located on the edge of Criccieth but only 15/20 minutes walk from the castle and lots of restaurants or the beaches.
it was a fantastic hotel, the rooms were very clean,well maintained, our room had a sea view with 2 comfy arm chairs to sit in & enjoy the view.
the fresh cooked breakfast was excellent as was the buffet selection.
The owners were warm & welcoming we will be visiting again.
overhaul an iamazing couple of days.
The Lion Hotel has an excellent location for exploring Criccieth and the stunning coastline. The room had been recently refurbished and was clean, spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was of a good quality and the vast majority of staff were professional, friendly and welcoming.
Amazing location, panoramic view of the mountains and sea. Spotless accommodation, beautifully kept gardens, easy to walk into Criccieth for shops and food etc. Best bit was sitting on the veranda watching the sun go down with the sea lapping at the shore.
The cottage was comfortable with everything you need for a holiday in North Wales. Milk and biscuits on arrival a thoughtful touch. Close to Snowdonia and the Festinniog and Welsh Highland Railway. Lovely garden for sitting in every evening.
The room was lovely, comfy beds, lovely location and incredibly clean. The hosts were so so lovely and nothing was a bother. The breakfast was also so yummy. We will definitely be staying again if we find ourselves in Wales again soon!
The rooms were nice and big, I loved the bed, it was so comfy. Beautiful views, the restaurant made an amazing breakfast, so tasty! The rooms were spotless, so clean! The hotel was right across the beach
Lovely hotel location about a 20 minute walk into central Criccieth. Interior decor was nice, and staff very friendly. Food in the evening was very nice - congrats to the chef.
Great location, peaceful but still close to Criccieth by car. Comfy beds, had everything we needed for a comfortable break. My daughter loved Elvis the donkey!
