This was our second visit, chosen especially to celebrate a 75th birthday with friends, and it did not disappoint. The property is well-equipped, and comfortable. Its thoughtful amenities and cozy ambiance make it ideal for both relaxing and special occasions. We've enjoyed a family gathering, and a birthday celebration. Highly recommend booking and will visit again soon.

The kitchen was well equipped with all we required. Everyone found the bedrooms and beds very comfortable. You might want to checkout the electric Shower, couldnât seem to get any hot water, But other than that, everything else was fine. Handy for the station to visit Barmouth and Aberdovey, both a short train ride. We were lucky that the local pub had reopened the week before. Would definitely return here.
