Positives first. Brilliantly located with absolute quiet guaranteed- other than the birds and wind in the trees. Plenty of space for people to spread out indoors and bathrooms all over. Kitchen well fitted apart from 1 small fridge which had no room for all our food and drink. While the location was good for us you either need to use your car or be fit enough to walk very steep paths to get in and out of town. The walks from the house are stunning but again you need a level of fitness as they’re all up and down. Be careful of the 2nd hump in the drive as it can scrape underneath the car, I was in a Volvo V70 which is fairly low. The house itself had a few points which should be addressed apart from the fridge. While there’s an outdoor table and bench set there was no comfortable seating to relax and enjoy a book or the views - we had a family of 3 Sea Ospreys soaring in front of us every day. The patch of grass in front of the door was overgrown and untidy and the gravel sitting area had plenty of weeds - nothing major but just gave the impression of not caring and it looked a bit tatty. There were also a few minor cleanliness issues indoors. We had a great week and it is an amazing location, great walks and peaceful while only being a few minutes car journey or 20/25 minute walk into Barmouth.
