Had a fantastic one-night stay, traveling with a friend on our motorcycle tour around Wales. Good parking for the bikes at the back of the guest house. fresh ground coffee on arrival. Lots of TV stations in the room. Had the best breakfast on our trip here. They even filled our flaskes when we left. Would reccomend.

Fantastic B&B! We felt very warmly welcomed by Cath, who was always on hand to help with anything we needed. Nothing was too much. Good location if you're driving, not far from both Criccieth and Porthmadog. Clean and cosy room was like a home away from home. There's a cosy communal lounge with lovely wood fire just off the breakfast room. Breakfast was lovely - plenty of choice with fresh fruit, cereal and yogurt laid out, plus hot food options from the menu. Great value for money, would definitely recommend!

Very friendly greeting by lovely host who was very helpful and provided everything we needed. Spacious, warm, clean room with good facilities. Fantastic views from windows in our bedroom and bathroom. Pleasant breakfast room with a garden view and a large sitting room available for residents to use. Good range of fresh fruit, cereals and cooked breakfast available. Good, safe, off road, private parking also available. Situated in the countryside but only a few miles drive from Criccieth. Sudden problem with our bath drain resulted in quite a mess but the owners remained calm; they checked and sorted the problem with minimal fuss.

Upon arrival we were greeted and offered a drink. We were offered a choice of two rooms. We took the smaller room because it was cooler. The food was fantastic. Location was prime. In the countryside surrounded by mountains and sheep. Our host was very friendly and helpful. She recommended some great places to visit. Highly recommend and would go back there.

A lovely traditional guesthouse tucked away in the country lanes, very close to Porthmadog and Criccieth. We were warmly welcomed by the very friendly and helpful landlady, who even made us a pot of tea and brought it to us in the guest lounge. Highly recommended!

Lovely location and very welcoming hosts. Very peaceful and first class accommodation with lovely en suite facility. Amazing breakfast with so much choice and plenty to eat too! The full English brekkie certainly sets you up for the day and so tasty. Good choice of cereals, fresh fruit, yogurts and as afore mentioned, the breakfast. Lovely to see the birds on the bird feeders too enjoying their food too. Lovely place and would definitely recommend and visit again. Easy parking as well. Good selection of of brochures of local places to visit and easy to get to Porthmadog for the Welsh Highland Railway. Thank you.

Fantastic B&B! We felt very warmly welcomed by Cath, who was always on hand to help with anything we needed. Nothing was too much. Good location if you're driving, not far from both Criccieth and Porthmadog. Clean and cosy room was like a home away from home. There's a cosy communal lounge with lovely wood fire just off the breakfast room. Breakfast was lovely - plenty of choice with fresh fruit, cereal and yogurt laid out, plus hot food options from the menu. Great value for money, would definitely recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay here and appreciated an attentive host. It was a perfect base for us to use during our stay, as it was in the vicinity of Porthmadog and Criccieth which is where we were going at that point in our trip. Breakfast was the best we’ve ever had.

Such a lovely welcoming B&B! Lovely lounge with roaring fire for guests use, rooms and beds comfy and clean, breakfasts are amazing, and host lovely. We stayed in the double room with twin beds - the twin beds are in a separate room, which is a great bonus!

Only stayed the one night,but was delighted by my choice. Only had other reviews to go on,but they were right,it was excellent in every respect. One of my main concerns was a good breakfast,as we had a full day ahead of us. No need to worry. We had an excellent full English,with equally excellent coffee. Would have absolutely no hesitation in returning.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely guest house in Wales. The house was absolutely spotless, beautifully maintained, and had such a charming cottage-style feel. It was in a lovely, peaceful location, away from the busy town atmosphere, which made our stay feel very relaxing. The host was incredibly kind, welcoming, and friendly, and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The breakfast was absolutely amazing fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. A beautiful place with a lovely atmosphere, a wonderful host, and a fantastic breakfast. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and charming place to stay in Wales.
