  Overall we enjoyed our stay at the cottage.

  It is really quirky and full of character. The location is amazing as its so central in the town. The bathrooms were lovely and clean and there was always plenty of hot water. The bathroom on the top floor is stunning. We slept well as the beds were comfortable and enjoyed relaxing in the TV lounge. However, there were a few small niggles during our stay. On arrival it would have been useful to have a welcome sheet or pack of some sort with key information, including about where to put rubbish- we had to keep taking it out in small bags and disposing of it in the street bins. A larger brush for sweeping the floor would have been handy, we had 2 small children with us who inevitably dropped food on the kitchen floor and cleaning the tiles wasn't easy with the small dustpan and brush. On our first day I had to wash a lot of the kitchen utensils, crockery and pans before we could use them as there was food or grease left on them, I understand that this is down to previous guests but feel that this should be checked before arrival as it was very obvious. There were a lot of cobwebs, I know its an old building but they were in the corners of every room with quite a lot of spiders. There is also a strong musty smell on the bottom floor so we only stayed down there when necessary for cooking and eating. Overall it was a good stay despite those few niggles and we would return as the location was fantastic.

  The cottage is absolutely lovely. We are fussy and we would most definitely return. Full of character and charm. Everything you need is there including all of the basic kitchen equipment. Do look in all of the kitchen cupboards and drawers upon arrival. There are pan scrubbers, washing up liquid, washing tablets and dishwasher tablets tea towels, oven mits and pegs etc (saves packing space). The location is quiet and peaceful. The beach is a straight walk through the caravan site and it is flat. The walk took us ten minutes and we think half a mile. The beach is dog friendly. The owners are helpful and approachable - I have some issues that require me to make contact before arrival and they were extremely accommodating. Onsite restaurant allows dogs out on the balcony which has a roof and heaters. If you are over 6 foot tall and have looked at the photos dont worry about the bedroom ceilings. There is only one beam at the top of the stars that you may have to duck just a little. Both bedrooms would be fine if you slept on the right side of the bed. My husband had no issues. We would highly recommend the cottage and the location, which is about 3/12 miles from Barmouth and 7 from Harlech.

  Gorgeous cottage in a great location with 5 minute walk to beach, it is on edge of a caravan park but don’t let this put you off as it is very quiet and peaceful with lovely views from lounge and bedrooms. Very clean and comfortable, the shower is lovely. Very well equipped, the owner has thought of everything which makes it very homely. We had a fantastic week here and would highly recommend. Our dogs loved the enclosed gardens, the only thing there is a small gap under the entrance gate which probably wouldn’t affect most dogs but our small dogs could get under it if they wanted to. When booking I didn’t realise the cottage was adjoining the Farm Cottage however there is a gate seperating the properties and it didn’t affect our stay in any way and would be ideal if family or friends were staying in adjoining property. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again. Thank you.

  The cottage was delightful with great views of the beach and the sea. However there was no information as to how to access the beach which would have been really useful. We discovered towards the end of our holiday that there was access on to the beach south of the railway station. It is possible to access the beach by going through the caravan site across the road from the cottage but it was signed “site clientele only”. We think more information regarding beach access would have been really useful. Online info stated there would be a welcome pack on our arrival, however this constituted a packet of Welsh cakes and a small carton of milk. We don’t consider this to be a welcome pack. Either a proper welcome pack should be provided or mention of it deleted from the website. However we had a very pleasant stay overall.

  A lovely quirky cottage in the heart of Barmouth.

  The stairs in the property are very steep. Other than a manual for the cooker there were no other instructions for the property. The central heating is controlled by hive. The controller is on the wall next to the TV. The TV uses a firestick for its channels, this is fine if you are familiar with this but no instructions if you aren't. The bi's are a complete mystery as there appears to be no recycling facilities for the cottage. The neighbours are very protective of there own facilities. Eventually found green bin marked Ian which we were told was for cottage. Although we had no problem parking to unload in high season this would definitely be more difficult but there are plenty of car parks nearby. The PCSO's on the town enforce the restrictions fairly vigorously.Overall we had a nice stay thank you
