Chalet Forte

What a lovely, peaceful chalet in the hills of Aberdovey.

Decorated beautifully with all the things you will need to stay happily. Comfy beds, and peace and quiet only woken by an owl hooting! Yes the mountain road is a bit steep but you get used to it and don't compete with any other cars to drive up there. Fabulous estuary views nearby too, my daughter and I really enjoyed our stay. Plus our dog Eddy,who was really happy Lovely treats from Lynda the owner as well,thanks

Directions to site was good but chalet numbering on site was confusing.

Plus no forewarning of how steep the access to the site was (including 2 hairpin bends!) We were grateful that bottled water was provided as the tap water was very off-putting.

You reach the chalet up along,narrow, extremely steep road, with hairpin bends,not for the faint hearted!

It's not a holiday park,Burton a residential site. Inside there is lots of storage space for clothes & the beds really comfy.But a couple of issues, bathroom extractor fan not working,disc firmly stuck in DVD player.Aberdovey-lovely

We enjoyed the site which was for us very quiet in the woods, this property would be more suited for three adults as the second bedroom is very small and so is the accommodation for four adults.

we also thought that there were too much furnitures in the property which were not needed in my opinion and if wasn't there would have given more room at the property. The property was clean but because place where the site was there was some cobwebs which was not a problem and I can understand it is hard to keep clean where the property is and having a wood burner, the only reason why I wouldn't recommend this property is because of the discoloration of the water and the pressure of the water when using the shower I know the water was approved by Welsh water to drink but it was a bit off put .we did enjoy the decking at the time we were there the weather was very warm and it was cooler outside than inside the property. We did leave a night early but , it wasn't the fault of the owner it was because it was very hot in the bedroom and we decided to go home early being one of the hottest nights of the year. Electric fans were provided but it was still too hot to stay that last night.

We have a lovely stay at the Chalet recently.

We were in town for the local Machynlleth Comedy Festival over the May bank holiday weekend, and this was a wonderful base for that, being around 20 minutes away - and then a short drive to Aberdyfi too, with its lovely beach. The chalet park is very quiet; we didn't hear anyone else throughout our entire stay! Communication from the host was great, and she was very friendly. The key is stored in a lock box at the property, so you can check in at your own convenience with space to park directly outside the front door. The chalet had everything you needed - 2 bedrooms with comfy beds, ample storage for clothes, a good shower (with toiletries supplied) and a well-stocked kitchen. We even got some free cakes on arrival, thanks! There were also some board games and DVDs supplied if you get bored. We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again next time we're in the area.

It was delightful to stay in this cabin for a few days to escape the weather!

Once the fire was lit, it was so cozy and we enjoyed playing cards, reading and eating wholesome food with a glass of wine or two. Most of what we needed was there, although we struggled to find a good knife (hence 4 not 5!). Amazing views and very comfortable beds.

Had a lovely stay Chalet forte, comfortable and cosy inside especaily with the wood burner.

Well appointed interior, some might even call it posh. Overall cracking cabin.(just a shame the weather wasnt better).

The chalet was clean and comfortable however no instructions had been left regarding bin day and also there was no broom or vacuum cleaner so we could clean the floors.

That was disappointing. Otherwise the chalet was warm and inviting (once the heating was turned on). I would recommend once the above was corrected.

What a lovely little place up on that big hill.

Cute cosy, comfortable with everything we needed. Car definitely required. Directions given prior to arrival were perfect. People around the site were welcoming. Internet included which the kids loved! Bottles of water supplied. Bathroom sink taps are the opposite to what you think but once you know its not an issue. No freezer compartment in the fridge for the cool bag ice blocks, wasn't an issue just something to note. All in all we loved it, peaceful with beautiful surroundings.

Stayed with my elderly mother so there being only one step up to chalet was good and parking right outside.

Inside was beautifully decorated, and as pictures shown except they have changed the sofa. Well equipped. Lynda was really helpful when there was an issue with internet she got on straight to BT. Short walk away from chalet you have a view of the estuary , has a lovely decking area to sit out. Would recommend.

Chalet Forte is a cosy little lodge however in the hot weather it gets extremely hot inside.

.. maybe good insulation and windows would help, as insulation also helps keep a property cool in the summer months as well as warm in the winter months....I'm not sure if we would stay again, you have to use your car to get into Aberdovy, which was a bit of a pain for us, we like to be closer to all shops, restaurants etc so we can just walk...

Lovely place, definitley has a womanly touch - understand most people eat out etc but we cooked and found little things like cooking utensils and cutlery to be old and need updating.

Also no regular glasses just wine glasses & mugs this is the only ‘flaw’ if there was one. Great location we have stayed in another chalet before and love it, close to beaches and things to do as long as you have a car.

The chalet is in a lovely quiet place, it's handy for a number of great beaches and a short drive away are plenty of places to have a meal, easy to park lovely and quiet at night,we had a lovely week at chalet forte, David and beryl

Chalet Forte is in an absolutely stunning, peaceful location.

The chalet has everything you may need and Lynda was very helpful upon our arrival to inform us about the natural water supply. The only reason I marked down the comfort was due to the settee not being very comfortable. I feel the chalet would benefit with having a visitors information pack, there are plenty of leaflets with things to do but there was no information in relation to stripping of beds and leaving dirty towels at the end of your stay (Lynda answered this for me). I know storage space is limited but a vacuum/indoor brush would really be useful also (My elderly mother who was with me, likes to tidy around

My family just spent the bank holiday weekend here.

lovely chalet.well decorated.very comfy bed.loved the log burner.a very cosy place with a great layout.nice and quiet site with fantastic views.we will definitely coming back.lynda was very helpful .thankyou .see ya soon

Apart fro water scenario a wonderful and relaxing time with outstanding scenery, will be back.

This is a lovely getaway to the Welsh Countryside.

Beautiful and scenic location Comfort, if you don't mind driving up a very bendy incline it's fine(my family love this and find it exciting) 1 of the party members was unhappy with 1 of the beds, otherwise it was great. We had a great stay. (Don't forget your wash bags, shops are far if you need a shower and prefer a bar of soap) The cutest little kitchen and cosy fires. Loved it. Would consider going again. 1 hour scenic drive to Barmouth Beach and 25mins from Cadir Idris for a breathtaking hike. 10mins from steam train

Lovely little chalet in an awesome part of Wales

Enjoyed our stay at chateau Forte on this quiet site , we were able to sit outside in the sunshine, the chalet had all we needed .

We really enjoyed our stay at chateau forte.

It was a good base to explore this beautiful area of Wales. The chalet was clean with good facilities. Clean and tidy with a comfortable bed. At night it was really quiet .

Had a great short stay, perfect place to stay and explore Wales.
