The cottage is in the Snowdonia National Park and located in an excellent position to explore both the more popular areas of Snowdonia, mid-wales around Aberystwyth and also up to the places like Portmeirion (a good day out).. The local roads are good and offer stunning views of mountains and lakes. The cottage is about 5 miles from Dolgellau which can provide most of the essentials needed for a self catering holiday and about 7 miles from Barmouth which has a great sandy beach and good for a "bucket and spade" day out for the family. The cottage was exceptionally clean and well equipped and the owners were very helpful and friendly, providing excellent information on how to reach the cottage. The cottage comes with its own private garden area and stunning views across a wooded valley. The cottage is a two story renovation with the bedrooms and bathroom on the upper floor. Our only reservation is that the stairs although short, with a half landing, are quite steep. Having said that, we are 70+ with reasonable mobility and we coped OK getting up and down. We can thoroughly recommend this property and look forward to a return visit.
