    “Fantastic cottage in a great location for a peaceful holiday.”

    Great views. Cosy. Super comfortable bed and nice white cotton bedding. Underfloor heating works well. Shower is lovely and warm. Would be helpful to have more detailed instructions on heating, towel rails etc but we worked it out. Before the negatives I will say we would definitely go back, it's a great place and we had a wonderful holiday. Negatives - Drafty downstairs corridor had no draft excluders.

    Great views. Cosy. Super comfortable bed and nice white cotton bedding. Underfloor heating works well. Shower is lovely and warm. Would be helpful to have more detailed instructions on heating, towel rails etc but we worked it out. Before the negatives I will say we would definitely go back, it's a great place and we had a wonderful holiday. Negatives - Drafty downstairs corridor had no draft excluders. This was mentioned in a previous review. Bedrooms are downstairs and the bedroom door bangs when windy which we resolved with a sock. Understandable that the max temp on the corridor floor is 17° but recommend to take slippers as the downstairs corridor floor is cold despite underfloor heating. NB the bedroom was still warm and cosy and other floor temps set higher. Big issue-;Washing machine horrible black mouldy seal, not draining, loads of white residue blocking seal, leaves residue on clothes when we used it, which we needed to. Informed owner who thanked me for letting them know but no apology and no offer to resolve for our stay. This was disappointing as otherwise contact with owner had been entirely positive.

DOLGELLAU

Fairbourne 9.3 miles; Barmouth 10 miles; Aberdovey 23.2 miles.

This small, beautiful market town is located in the heart of southern Snowdonia, between the imposing Cader Idris mountain range and the sea. It’s a superb base for a holiday - perfect for combining the many outdoor pursuits on offer in Snowdonia with relaxing days out on the soft sandy beaches of Barmouth, Fairbourne and Aberdovey. The town itself offers a good selection of shops, five pubs and a wine bar, along with a number of excellent restaurants, cafes and two bakeries, that produce fresh bread and cakes each day. Dolgellau is home to over 200 listed buildings, allegedly the highest concentration in the whole of Wales, and the town is also a designated 'cycle break centre' boasting a range of dedicated cycle routes all around the area. Close by is the Coed y Brenin mountain bike trail and this location is ideal for quiet outdoor recreation with superb scenery, mountains, forests, waterfalls, castles and beaches all close to hand.
