Well equipped, spotlessly clean, with a wonderful host. Dog friendly with plenty of walks close by. Off the beaten track, but with great internet connection. What's not to like !

We took 6 dogs with us and we had an absolutely brilliant time and will definitely return. It is in a peaceful location about a mile and a half from the nearest village which doesn't have a shop so just stock up with food and drink for cozy evenings indoors if you are using this during the winter,as we did. Porthmadog and Criccieth are not too far away . We went a couple of weeks before Xmas and we still talk about our long weekend away. The dogs and children with us loved the place. Real home from home and so dog friendly. Credit to the owners who have made this a magical place to visit .

The cottage was warm and welcoming. We even had Christmas decorations which was a lovely touch. The garden was lovely for the dogs fully enclosed and safe. The location is beautiful set among the mountains very peaceful but a short drive away to local amenities The property is well kept and comfortable. There was only three of us so it seemed huge. It is ideal for a large family. The host was lovely. She met us at the property and explained everything. She even text us to check all was ok I would definitely return again
