## Summary The available information for “Gwynfryn” is internally inconsistent. One structured field lists **emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours)**, but the linked website and all the latest written Google reviews describe a **holiday cottage/accommodation** (e.g., “lovely place,” “stunning views,” “places to walk”), not veterinary care. Based on the sources provided, there isn’t enough reliable, clinic-specific evidence to describe veterinary services, facilities, or staff. ## Services - **Emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours)** are listed in the structured clinic data. *Note: this is not supported by the website summary or the written reviews provided, which describe accommodation rather than a veterinary practice.* ## Reviews **Google rating: 4.9 stars from 10 reviews.** “Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.” These reviews appear to refer to a **holiday cottage stay**, not pet healthcare: - Repeat stays and recommendations for the property (“stayed here so many times”). - Comments about **views**, **walks**, and a **peaceful place to relax**. - Mentions of nearby places to eat and local walks/viewpoints (without describing any veterinary experience).
