A truly lovely place to stay, nature all around, views from the cottage are spectacular, especially the sunrise above Cadir Idris. Close enough to Barmouth for pubs, eateries (In and Takeaway), the beach and the shops. The walk across Barmouth Bridge offers a leisurely walk with great views too.

A brilliant cosy and well equipped cottage for spectacular views and fresh mountain air. Beautifully unique furniture. A great place for walking and exploring, yet close enough to incorporate walks with good pubs without driving.

This is a truly wonderful property in an idyllic, very quiet spot, with views to die for. The cottage has been tastefully refurbished, with all modern conveniences, whilst still managing to retain something of a 'cottage feel'. The road up to it is narrow and steep but generally very quiet, so little problem. Upstairs has some low headspace so someRead more care needed if tall and/or half asleep, but there were only two of us, so the lovely downstairs more than met our needs. Strongly recommend. Hide
