Reviews

Wonderful homely cottage where we have enjoyed a fantastic week. It was spotless and they had thought of everything to make the stay comfortable. Beautiful views and close enough to town for amenities.

Mrs R,

Recommended. One of the best cottages that I have stayed in and I hope to return. The cottage is very spacious and very well equipped. Lovely countryside location,with views of nearby hills and the Cadair Idris mountain range. Dolgellau town and a supermarket within easy walking distance down the hill. Plenty of information about nearby attractions and local walks, with the popular Precipice Walk just over a mile further up the road. The pleasant owner was attentive without being intrusive and lives close by.

Mr M,

What a great holiday home . Don’t think we have ever stayed in a more perfect house. Stunning.

Mr C,

Wonderful cottage in a wonderful setting.

Mr R,

A great location, just outside of Dolgellau and surrounded by mountains and fields, but close enough to town to easily pick up supplies and options for eating out. The owner is a wonderful host who takes care to check in on her guests and provides a clean and comfortable home to stay in. We will return!

Mr W,

Fantastic cottage, fantastic host, fantastic location, fantastic holiday. 10 out of 10.

Mr O,

A beautifully equipped cottage in a quiet setting. It was lovely to be woken by the sound of sheep! Excellent location for local shopping and excursions into the mountains or down to the sea. The provision of maps for local walks was particularly useful.

Mrs Y,

Another excellent 2 week stay here in this lovely house. Everything you need is here, really home from home, once again would definitely recommend for location and superb accommodation. Stunning scenery and a beautiful part of Wales. Will be returning again soon

Mrs B,

A lovely comfortable cottage, great surroundings and a very welcoming and friendly owner. Really enjoyed our stay.

Mr C,

Well equiped and nicely modern furnished house. Lovely woodburner. Everything is very well maintained. We loved it and felt immediately at home. The owner is a lovely and attentive host.

Mrs Van V,

Amazing cottage, probably the best we have ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean, very well equipped and super comfy beds. We will be booking for next year.

Ms W,

Dolgellau also has many interesting shops, cafes and an award winning supermarket offering a wide range of Welsh produce. The pretty, charismatic town of Dolgellau also has more than 200 listed buildings – more than any other town in Wales.
