We had a wonderful week at Bryn Bras. Everything about the cottage inside and out was perfect. We felt very secluded even though you are only a few minutes from the main road, and close to many places to visit. We had perfect weather for walking of which we did lots of, we even went up the Mach loop mountain to watching jets fly. Loved sitting oRead moreutside at night enjoying the views of the hills change and listening to our neighbours (the sheep) If you book this cottage you will not be disappointed. Hide

Lovely rural cottage and ideal for those looking for peace and quiet and away from it all, yet only few minutes away from the town of Dolgellau. Ideally situated to visit many towns and to enjoy some wonderful scenic walks. Cottage well equipped and hopefully will return one day.

A great cottage in a wonderful setting. The interior is modern, spacious and well equipped, the outside space is peaceful and well maintained. I still miss wandering out in the morning to take in the views and see the lambs in the field next door. The recommended local fish & chip shop is definitely worth a visit!

The cottage was comfortable and was well equipped for everything you should need it was a bit difficult to find and from a personal point of view a sign naming the property would be helpful at the entrance road also saying roughly how far away from the main road it was up the track to the property but we would give it 5 stars

We were thrilled to be the first guests staying here, the views from the cottage are amazing. Every room is smart and comfortably decorated, very comfortable beds and the most peaceful nights sleep. The hosts were helpful and available if needed. The location was quiet and yet a short drive from Dolgellau where there are several good places to eaRead moret. This cottage is a great, central base for visiting all that North-west Wales has to offer. Would 100% recommend Bryn Bras Hide
