Mr White
We really enjoyed our 4th stay at this quiet and comfortable cottage. We thank the owner for some welcoming touches such as milk, butter, bread and cooking oil which meant we didn't have to make a mad dash to shops to get some essentials. We would recommend and hope to return again soon.

Miss Rose
I 100% recommend staying at this beautiful cottage. It is clean, comfortable and extremely warm and cosy! The setting is so peaceful. The only thing you will hear is an occasional sheep in a nearby field. Despite its tranquility it is perfectly situated within quick and easy drives to the shops in Dolgellau, and the stunning countryside for incredible walks. The garden is lovely and there is a footpath straight outside your door. The beds are comfy, the shower is great, the TV works perfectly... this cottage really ticks all the boxes!

Mr Plowman
This cottage was really well equipped and the owner provided the most extensive welcome package of local produce which was most welcome - bread, butter, cheese, yoghurt, milk, tea bags, coffee. The cottage is ideally suited for walking and exploring the local area as well as being close to the road network for travel to Tywyn, Porthmadog and Bala (all the important little railways of Wales). Its position guarantees quiet and the ability to see the night sky. Nightly visits from a local fox entertained us as did the owners children bringing in the sheep from the fields. All in all, a great place to stay if you like isolation yet being able to travel to some great places to eat.
