  The cottage was lovely and in an ideal spot and we were welcomed with a lovely welcome pack which was much appreciated.

  First impressions were that the cottage was lovely and clean, nice towels and bed linen. The bed was very comfortable. In the kitchen there was every appliance/utensil wise that we needed. The sandwich maker was very marked so we didn't use that. There was an odour in the kitchen, around the oven area that wasn't particularly nice, we couldn't ascertain what it was it where it came from. We had a fly infestation up in the small landing toilet so maybe a supply of fly spray would have been handy, even though I hate using spray it would have been useful on this occasion. Luckily we had kept the door shut so they were mainly confined to that room although somehow they did make they way into the bathroom next to it. The water from the shower in the bath was very slow draining and when I checked on the last day as I was cleaning the bath I saw that the slow drainage was due to a clogged up plughole. This might be worth checking now and again to ensure water drains freely. The patio outside was lovely, had the sun and the sound of the running stream and birdsong was just idyllic, very restful. We were visited by several species of birds on the bird feeder including a regular woodpecker. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

  Enjoyed our stay in Arnant so much that we didn't want to go home!

  Weather was sunny & warm which was a bonus (who needs to go abroad!) Views from the sun room & top bedroom were fabulous. Very spacious rooms throughout the house. The owner Tim was lovely & very friendly. Came to check we were ok & had everything we needed. We took our own bikes with us but there is no storage at the property for them. We locked them to the railings at the back of the house & they were fine. First visit to Barmouth & we weren't disappointed. Lots to see & do (A week wasn't long enough). It has a lovely beach & this is where we sat & watched the stunning sunsets on an evening. Plenty of hills & mountains to explore with fabulous views. Mawddach trail across Barmouth bridge is good for biking. A flat route suitable for all ages & abilities. You can also walk this trail. We also explored Coed y Brenin forest which isn't too far from the holiday cottage. It has both walking & biking trails. The minortaur bike trail was so much fun we went round it more than once! Plenty of places to eat & drink. Would highly recommend this holiday cottage & Barmouth & will definitely return.

  Everyone who has been here has stated that this is an extremely good place and the owners are very friendly.

  The conservatory is an added feature with true views over the sea. There is adequate car parking and the walk to the town is approx 20 mins downhill. Barmouth is a well presented town with lots of space and eateries. On the web site it features a number of food places to go to but doesn't mention the Ty Craig hotel close by. This wasn't recommended to us but we went to give it a try and have to say it was excellent both for food and attention. We went back and it was equally welcoming the views from the restaurant over the sea were an added bonus. We were able to travel around covering the Snowdonia area fully, we found the Ffestiniog steam railway brilliant, the !st class carriage for an extra £7 each way really worth it. The scenery was beautiful and the coastal area around Aberdyfi very relaxing.

  What a beautiful property,well designed and thought out and much bigger than expected.

  Went with our 98 year old auntie and she was able to have a ground floor bedroom with her own bathroom which was really good for her to have her own bit of independence. Bedroom was lovely with the patio doors which we never shut during the night due to the very hot weather, so it kept us nice and cool to sleep . Loved the setting and the views were lovely out to sea and the conservatory was nice to sit and relax and watch the beautiful sunset s . We found everything we needed and we had a welcome pack of goodies which was most appreciated. House was spotless couldn’t fault anything about it , well apart from the fact that we had to leave it ! We got to meet the owner Tim who was very nice and approachable. Would definitely recommend this property and I’m sure we shall be returning.

  We had an amazing stay at Arnant and would love to return.

  The house is absolutely beautiful and full of natural light with lots of attention to detail. The layout is fantastic and the soft furnishings luxurious and it’s obvious from the moment you enter that lots of thought has been given to ensuring the perfect stay for guests. The owner is really friendly and lives close by and popped over to say hi and to check all was well for us. The welcome treats were also really appreciated! The view from the master bedroom balcony is stunning and a lovely place to sit for breakfast or with a cocktail in the evening. Location is perfect, far enough out to be peaceful and tranquil but close enough to the centre to be able to walk to the shops and beach. Highly recommend this property and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thank you!
