Had everything you could need for a cosy stay. Parking permit supplied for long stay car park which was only a few minutes walk away. Would definitely recommend and would definitely love to stay here again should the cottage be available for our next visit to Dolgellau. Lots of dog friendly places nearby and some super walks. On a very narrow lane so a little difficult to get down with your car to unload but thereâs a lane behind the cottage which makes it much easier for quickly loading and unloading the car.
