The accommodation was clean and the situation of the cottage was so handy for the beach just a few minutes walk. Although there isnt parking outside the cottage you are given a parking permit to use which was very helpful. We would definitely be happy to stay there again.

The cottage was clean and welcoming, and in an excellent location in Aberdovey. It was a very short walk from the beachfront and was close to the Tide and Dovey Inns, as well as the Coast cafe. The beachfront is very clean, somewhere weâd definitely go back to , to experience it in the summer. The train station is within walking distance so we took the train to Barmouth for a few hours - this was lovely as the route takes you along the coast and the scenery is gorgeous. Thank you to the host for the milk and biscuits. We highly recommend.
