| Previous Visitors' Comments | A very cosy cottage, with very friendly owner and warm welcome. Superb location, well-equipped kitchen and a relaxing holiday for the family. Hot tub to be recommended !
Mrs Holt, Soell, Tirol
Jul 2008 | The cottage was fantastic, a real home from home, with everything you could possibly need, as well as thoughtfully provided items such as books, games, films, tea and coffee, toilet tissue, washing up liquid and handsoap etc. We were welcomed on arrival and shown around. The weather wasn't great, but to come 'home' and sit in front of a log stove was delightful. The weather didn't dampen our spirits, the location was beautiful and there were so many things to do within the surrounding area. Dolgoch Falls, the Tal-y-Llyn Railway, the beach and Easter Market at Tywyn, the Minfordd trail up Cadair Idris, the shops at Dollgellau and Machynllyth, King Arthur's Labyrinth and the Centre for Alternative Technology to name just a few places we visited, and all these within a nine mile radius of the cottage! Amazing to wake up and see snow on the surrounding mountains was a treat. We will definitely return again and have been recommending it to our friends and family!

Mar 2007 | Location was excellent for walking and extremely quiet. Owners were friendly. The hot tub was great, from it we watched the sunset over the mountains. All in all, a lovely place to stay, we had a lovely week.
