The hotel is absolutely lovely. The location, the view, the room, and most of all the lovely and extremely helpful, polite, and fun the host is. Before arriving the contact was also amazing (via email). This amazing lady helped us with everything we wanted. We had a special request about parking our motorcycles and she remembered. We got an even better room (upgrade) at no charge. The breakfast was made of high-quality products. The coffee was delicious. There was even a surprise waiting for us - the hotel is on the UK army jet plane route and every weekday they fly over the building in the morning - what a spectacle! I am coming back to this hotel for sure!

Last minute booking having got caught in torrential & freezing Welsh summer weather, arrived very very wet, cold and tired. Was treated like royalty by the hotel manager, he really is a star.

Nice design and more spacious than we expected. The cabin was well equipped and had a very tranquil outlook with a nice short walk through the woods to the estuary. We also liked meeting the Highland cow and the horses.

A thoughfully renovated and clean, tidy cottage only a short walk into town or out along the Mawddach Trail.
Friendly and attentive hosts. Comfortable beds and excellent new ensuite shower. Good choice of items for breakfast.
The downstairs and outside seating, gated parking area, extra toilet, fresh milk for tea and coffee were all much appreciated. Also thanks for the tea and Welsh cakes on first arrival after climbing Cader Idris.

Beautiful, peaceful setting. Incredibly kind, attentive and friendly hosts. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable accommodation. Wonderful full breakfast with homemade fruit preserves and lots of options. We found the location perfect for sightseeing and walks, but also spent a whole afternoon in the garden enjoying the views and sunshine. Thank you Heulwen and Andy, it was a wonderful stay.

A nice little cottage physically attached to a working farmhouse. It has a well equipped kitchen, and is located perfectly if you want to see the aircraft that may go through the Mach Loop as it is located under a mile from Cad East/West.
There is a hilly 4.5 mile foot/cycle path to Dolgellau where you can then take the flat 9 mile Mawddach Trail into Barmouth if you are fit enough! The hourly bus back to Dolgellau saved our old legs!
Just bear in mind that young children will need to be supervised at the cottage as it is open to the farm and there is no secure or private garden area, this would be my only criticism if I had to make one.
As for eateries, there is also a little used footpath (with a bit of challenging undergrowth) to the Cross Foxes Restaurant if you don’t want to drive (can’t comment on food as didn’t eat there) but we did eat at the Mawddach Wood Fired Pizza place 6.5 miles away that was superb (you need to book), also the Mermaid Fish Bar in Barmouth did the best fish and chips we’ve had in a long time.
So if you want a place to stay in this lovely part of Wales this is ideal, and we will not hesitate to return.
Note the default recommendations below do not include walking for some obscure reason, which I would have ticked. Not so weirdly the Mach Loop isn’t there either, so I’ll add it here.
The photos are from the top of Cad East walked from the cottage (hidden below the hill)
