sadly we had at least two dogs on the farm next door that decided to bark for most of the nights.

It was well equipped, with a good cooker, washing machine and dish washer. The owner's house (unoccupied during our stay) is one one side, and farm buildings on the other, but we didn't feel at all hemmed in. Thereâs a little patio with views down towards Porthmadog.

We had an amazing stay we would definitely stay again. The only negative I would give is maybe a comfortable couch as after a long day walking the one the is ther is not very comfortable.
