Parking is sometimes limited and the approach is steep, but public EV chargers nearby ease things for drivers. Rooms are frequently described as spacious, comfortable and well appointed, with historic character and some lovely views. Expect a characterful base ideal for relaxed exploring.

Facilities
On-site restaurant and bar receive strong praise. Parking can be tight and the approach is steep; there’s no on-site EV charging, but public chargers at Harlech Castle car park are a short walk away.

The property is located in a very convenient location. The EV charging point in the Castle which is a just a minute walk away is very handy. Top class host. Fixed our breakfast the previous night as we needed to leave early. Strongly recommend!

The room was very well appointed and renovated but still had a fair bit of rustic charm. The staff are unbelievably nice and accommodating ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. We had dinner and breakfast and both were excellent. The value for the price is unbeatable - free delicious breakfast buffet and snacks. The only downside is the limited parking and spotty Wi-Fi but certainly not a deal breaker. The owners, staff and people who live in this city are very welcoming and made the visit that much more special. If you want to truly relax countryside, this is the place to stay.

An amazing stay in a quiet location, perfect if you want to get away from the City life. A few minute walk away from Harlech Castle, and around 15-20 minutes away from Portmeirion and Portmadog, it’s the perfect location to see the local towns/villages! The rooms were nice and cosy, and very clean. The toiletries provided were high quality brands, not your usual standard brands you get with larger hotel chains. The restaurant and bar were lovely, and the breakfast was delicious! The owner made the most anazing Pad Thai, and they have an excellent variety of drinks on offer! In relation to EV charging, they do not have any on site but there are two charging points around the corner (Harlech Castle Car Park) and theres another car park in the town with around 4 charging points (around 3-4 minute drive from the hotel) so you shouldn’t have any problems waiting around for a charger. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we will definitely be back again!

What a wonderful surprise this hotel was. Literally a stone throw from Harlech castle. Beautiful, clean and spacious rooms. Pattra the owner is so attentive. Look no further than the hotel restaurant for amazing food and excellent service. Parking for three cars, plus a couple opposite. Not far from Portmeirion or Snowden.

Wonderful stay at Castle Cottage Inn. the owner Pattra made us very welcome throughout our 2 day stay. Cleanliness was exceptional and the food was lovely we dined in the restaurant both evenings with views over Mount Snowden in the distance. Sunset views over Royal St Davids golf course and the castle was stunning would love to return in the future.

We enjoyed staying at this seven room boutique bed and breakfast hotel. The hotel is run by a wife and husband team. The hotel room are very clean just not modern, at least by American standards. Really enjoyed our breakfast! The hotel is a short walk to Harlech Castle. Both of which are reached by driving up a steep driveway.

Just back from an amazing 3 nights at the castle cottage inn. Room was very spacious, well equipped, clean and comfortable. The walk in shower was lovely and if you prefer a bath that was available too. Location perfect right by the castle. Pattra and Daryl were perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend that you stay at this hidden gem.

This is a gem of an inn, located just a stone’s throw from the castle walls. The woman who runs it is a delight; friendly and helpful. The room and bed were comfortable and well stocked with teas and coffees and the like. The food - both dinner and breakfast - were excellent. It’s an older building so expect occasionally creaking floors (although they are carpeted) and low ceilings, but that just adds to the charm. Highly recommended if you can spend a night in Harlech.

Really enjoyed our breakfast! The hotel is a short walk to Harlech Castle. Both of which are reached by driving up a steep driveway.

An amazing stay in a quiet location, perfect if you want to get away from the City life. A few minute walk away from Harlech Castle, and around 15-20 minutes away from Portmeirion and Portmadog, it’s the perfect location to see the local towns/villages! The rooms were nice and cosy, and very clean. The toiletries provided were high quality brands, not your usual standard brands you get with larger hotel chains. The restaurant and bar were lovely, and the breakfast was delicious! The owner made the most anazing Pad Thai, and they have an excellent variety of drinks on offer! In relation to EV charging, they do not have any on site but there are two charging points around the corner (Harlech Castle Car Park) and theres another car park in the town with around 4 charging points (around 3-4 minute drive from the hotel) so you shouldn’t have any problems waiting around for a charger. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we will definitely be back again!

Wow! Delightful, convenient, delicious. Patra is a gracious, loving host. The location is directly next to the castle. The room was modern, clean, and beautifully appointed. This is definitely the place to stay if you’re coming to Harlech. Thank you Patra!

Great place to stay right next to Harlech Castle and at the top of a very steep hill. Staff very focussed on delivering a quality service - restaurant food was excellent both at dinner and breakfast

Just back from an amazing 3 nights at the castle cottage inn. Room was very spacious, well equipped, clean and comfortable. The walk in shower was lovely and if you prefer a bath that was available too. Location perfect right by the castle. Pattra and Daryl were perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend that you stay at this hidden gem.

Our stay was perfect all the way from the initial, warm greeting from Pattra, to the wonderful room, a lovely Thai dinner and, then, a peaceful night’s sleep and an excellent breakfast. We can offer no improvements. Just thank you for a great visit. It also has a great location-just around the corner from the Castle!

This is a gem of an inn, located just a stone’s throw from the castle walls. The woman who runs it is a delight; friendly and helpful. The room and bed were comfortable and well stocked with teas and coffees and the like. The food - both dinner and breakfast - were excellent. It’s an older building so expect occasionally creaking floors (although they are carpeted) and low ceilings, but that just adds to the charm. Highly recommended if you can spend a night in Harlech.

The room was very well appointed and renovated but still had a fair bit of rustic charm. The staff are unbelievably nice and accommodating ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. We had dinner and breakfast and both were excellent. The value for the price is unbeatable - free delicious breakfast buffet and snacks. The only downside is the limited parking and spotty Wi-Fi but certainly not a deal breaker. The owners, staff and people who live in this city are very welcoming and made the visit that much more special. If you want to truly relax countryside, this is the place to stay.

An amazing stay in a quiet location, perfect if you want to get away from the City life. A few minute walk away from Harlech Castle, and around 15-20 minutes away from Portmeirion and Portmadog, it’s the perfect location to see the local towns/villages! The rooms were nice and cosy, and very clean. The toiletries provided were high quality brands, not your usual standard brands you get with larger hotel chains. The restaurant and bar were lovely, and the breakfast was delicious! The owner made the most anazing Pad Thai, and they have an excellent variety of drinks on offer! In relation to EV charging, they do not have any on site but there are two charging points around the corner (Harlech Castle Car Park) and theres another car park in the town with around 4 charging points (around 3-4 minute drive from the hotel) so you shouldn’t have any problems waiting around for a charger. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we will definitely be back again!

We spent a night at Castle Cottage Inn, Harlech as part of a short road trip. The room was beautiful and very well appointed with every comfort a traveller could think of. Pattra was the perfect hostess, very friendly and welcoming. We also ate at Pattra’s thai restaurant the same evening and the food was super authentic and very tasty, again the service was excellent and we felt very well looked after. All in all a great night away at a wonderful place. Would definitely recommend!
