Very convenient for groceries - Spar just around the corner. Numerous eating places all within close proximity. We had no trouble parking, but it is first come first served. Quiet area. Great for a good nights sleep.

A nice cottage for two in the centre of Dolgellau

A great place to stay as a base for many hikes and other adventures in the area. Nice contact with Lynn, the owner. She response very quickly. The cottage is clean and well furnished, everything you need is there. The only "problem" is parking. You can park in front of the house in a narrow streets, but so can everyone. You might have a chance there is no parking available and you have to park on the pay and display parking 3 minutes from the cottage. But, outside that, we had e great stay there! Thnx, Lynn. The

Mooi gerenoveerd maar onpraktisch

De voordeur komt uit in de keuken. Daarachter is de badkamer. Op eerste verdieping is een kleine zitkamer en op tweede verdieping de slaapkamer. Frigo is te klein, geen dampkap. Parkeren met de auto is ook een probleem. Het aantal plaatsen in de straat is al te weinig voor de bewoners. In de aanliggende straat mag je maar 1 uur parkeren, dus maar naar een betalende parking 500m verder. aanliggende straat
