    “It’s certainly not a bad cottage but wasn’t the most comfortable we’ve stayed in.”

    The sofa was horrible for us with virtually no back - we gave in and brought our camping chairs in from the car as these were more comfortable! Younger people might find this less of a problem. There is an oven, hob and microwave as well as a fridge and four of almost everything crockery wise. Surprisingly there were no egg cups.

    The sofa was horrible for us with virtually no back - we gave in and brought our camping chairs in from the car as these were more comfortable! Younger people might find this less of a problem. There is an oven, hob and microwave as well as a fridge and four of almost everything crockery wise. Surprisingly there were no egg cups. No welcome pack was provided which isn’t a problem yet there were teabags, some proper coffee, two dishwasher tablets and three toilet rolls. There were also some washing tablets and washing up liquid. It’s good to know what is provided because we have arrived with bread and milk etc before to find it orovided. The bed was not uncomfortable and the TV worked well and the shower was superb! The cottage is within a few minutes walk of the beach. There are quite a few walks nearby. The train station is very close with two hourly services north to Harlech, Portmadog , Cricieth and Pwlleli or south into Barmouth and beyond. Barmouth is an easy drive from the cottage for its restaurants and shops or there is a Tesco about 30 minutes drive in Portmadog. The cottage was very clean and we enjoyed our stay but would not return because of the comfort issues.

The beautiful bedroom which boasts a king-size bed with luxury bedding ensures a great nights sleep and the en-suite shower room with a double shower with dual drencher heads and marbled walls makes it equally luxurious.

A welcome retreat after a long day out and about.
