A beautiful, stylish stone cottage in Llanfair. 10 mins walk to the slate mines- well worth a visit. Comfy bed and as the bedrooms are downstairs, they stayed cool in the heatwave. Beautiful lounge/ kitchen with everything you need. Shower over the bath was a little difficult to get in and out of, so a safety handle would be useful. There was tea, coffee and a few treats left which added to the wonderful stay. Definitely a 5* stay and highly recommended

We stayed in this amazing property for 5 nights and loved it!The instructions from the host before arrival were detailed and clear (covering everything we could possibly have wanted to know)Lovely big entrance area which led off to the bedrooms/bathroom and stairs up to the living area/kitchen which is all one big open plan room. Bedroom had plenty of space, bedside tables on both sides of the bed and a large chest of drawers. There were also a few hooks and hangers. We didn't use the other bedroom but that had a large bunk bed, more drawers and more hangers & rails for hanging clothes.Good size bathroom. Bath with super powerful shower over it. 2 good mirrors and a small cupboard.The star of the house was the upstairs though!Massive room with high ceilings. Plenty of seating with sofas and dining table. The kitchen that was very well equipped, with everything we needed to cook meals ourselves. 4 skylight windows allow the air to move through the upstairs. Between those and the fire exit there's plenty of light in the daytime. Also plenty of lights for when it gets dark.(You can see the sea in the distance!)Near to Llandanwg beach and Harlech town/beach, and not far to drive in any direction to get to amazingly scenic places to go walking. Our favourite was the Precipice walk near Dolgellau. We'd also recommend a day at Nantcol waterfalls and dinner at The Victoria Inn (Llanbedr).We had an amazing stay here and will happily return when we're in the area.

What an idyllic cottage! The accommodation is so cozy, well equipped and immaculate. The owners are so friendly, we really enjoyed our stay, and it was such a shame to leave will definitely book again soon.
