Such a relaxing home from home, the view & local wildlife enhance the experience and Alan, the owner, has thought of absolutely everything, in fact he positively spoils you.

“Such a lovely little cottage fully ...”

Such a lovely little cottage fully equipped with everything you need for a restful ‘home from home’ retreat! We were welcomed with a premade fire, chocolate, wine, fruit baskets and basic essentials, which added to the welcome feel of the place. Picturesque surroundings, stunning walks and friendly locals helped make our stay even more special. Alan respected our privacy ( although my partner had met and spoken to him, I didn’t actually meet him until our final day!) yet, we knew he was always on hand should we have needed him. In fact, he even washed our car because (having arrived in the snow) it looked like we had been rally driving in it!! We didn’t realise at first, then we noticed the windows were spotless as driving along. The only down side was that we needed to drive each day as the area is rural, and towns/ villages etc are spread throughout Snowdonia’s National Park ... but the views were so amazing we didn’t mind at all. Thank you again Alan for a wonderful stay and a much needed rest. Steve and Maria

“Anniversary mini break”

A most beautiful ,and delightful cottage in a idyllic scenic location of Wales. Stunning scenery all round situated between the valley surrounded by the mountains. We had an amazing time enjoying the amenities of this lovely cottage, Lots of time to take some photography study the local areas , visit Snowdon , Dolgellau , Harlech Castle and Barmouth town . Wish we had more time to spend here. The gardens are well maintained and the cottage is immaculate. Alan has provided us with so much in the cottage : fresh milk, fruit, liquor chocolates, bread, orange juice, biscuits and fresh fruit and bread. A most generous and welcoming gesture. Everything you need is here. We would definitely come again. Comfortable King size bed and Inglenook Log Fire for cosy nights in . Nice modernised kitchen and shower room nicely equipped and quality bath linen and robes provided with heated towel rail. Enjoyed a very nice evening meal at the Brigands Inn although it was extremely quiet and we were eating on Wednesday night the food was excellent and very filling. I recommend the Welsh Roast lamb and the Roast Belly Pork delicious and the dessert to die for Sticky toffee pudding and vanilla ice cream very nice indeed.

“A very comfortable home from home holiday.”

We had a fantastic fortnight in this beautifully appointed cottage, including a very comfortable bed, super shower room, a very well equipped kitchen and Sky TV. The cottage owner has thought of everything, including a bottle of wine, bread, butter, milk etc. for our arrival. The area is excellent for walking/cycling. A wonderful cottage in a beautiful part of Wales.

“Beautiful cottage”

Beautifully situated cottage, recently made over to an excellent standard throughout. Lots of really personal details, such as owner's books in bookshelf and art on walls. The owner has sought to think of everything a guest might need, from the comprehensively kitted out kitchen, to board and card games in the coffeetable drawers. Complementary wine, chocolate and fruit basket on arrival made for a really great impression on what was a much-needed break for us. Highly recommended.
