A great house and fantastic location. We spent a week here with our three grown up children and grandchild. Its maybe in need of a little TLC, but we didnt mind and felt relaxed and at home. The wood burner was great and there were lots of games and dvds to keep us occupied. Not that we needed them as we spent as much time as we could out and aboutRead more in the breathtaking scenery.

Thankyou for letting us stay in your lovely property which has amazing views of the mawddach trail. The only negative I would say about this property is the road up to the house is very steep and the parking from road to drive is very tight. I wouldn't recommend this property to anyone with mobility issues.

We have stayed in a lot of cottages/airbnbs/vrbos and we loved this property. The lounge is cosy and has a wood burning stove which is lovely for the cold evenings (You can buy bags of logs from the petrol station on the main road outside Dolgellau for for 4.25) The kitchen is fully equipped and the bedrooms have very comfortable matresses. The prRead moreoperty is located half way between Dolgellau and Barmouth but it doesn't feel out of the way. The view from the front of the property is absolutely stunning and the inside has some great artwork. We were a party of 4 adults and 3 year old and would definitely rent this property again. Hide

The house is beautiful with lovely decor and in a fantastic location. Some maintenance is required within and provision of better seating outside front would be beneficial to be able to look at the beautiful views.

A striking property in an elevated position overlooking the estuary and next door to the dramatic ruins of Bontddu Hall. The property is incredibly well equipped although this can make it seem a little cluttered. The crockery in particular is of high quality and supplied in copious amounts. The property is warm and clean whilst the main areas (diniRead moreng room, lounge, bedrooms) are comfortable. Parking is strictly limited to one car. The location is excellent being a short, scenic yet easy drive to local attractions and towns. Hide
