Our 2nd time to stay at Borthwnog Hall. We loved it so much the first time(we stayed at the Deluxe Suite), so we decided to come back. This time, the deluxe suite was not available for the date we have booked, so we stayed at the cottage, which was separate from the main house. The apartment was spacious, clean, and has got all the essentials. The bed was super comfortable. The breakfast was also delicious, and the staff has always been friendly and welcoming.

Beautiful, incredibly preserved small market town.
Beautiful, incredibly preserved small market town. The weather didn't allow us to explore close surroundingds as we wished.
The town itself has got plenty of pubs, cafes, gift shops, art shops.
The people we met so friendly.
The cherry on the cake is a second hand book shop. The books there just incredible!

The parking was not good steep narrow road I think once inside the property there was 44 steps or stairs some very steep and narrow, wouldn’t recommend to guests with any type of mobility issues. Lounge furniture needs replacing very old and uncomfortable lounge smelt musty. One of the bedrooms very damp with mushroom type mould Growing on wall and carpet. Bathrooms very nice modern plenty of them. Everything you needed supplied in the kitchen. Beds very comfortable lovely bedding. Garden unkempt and garden furniture rusty.

A well maintained property, with delightful hosts. Breakfasts very good.
Lovely gardens and views of the countryside/hills. Room facilities good, comfy & cosy. I plan to stay here again when next visiting the area. I have no hesitation in recommending it to others.
Good base for lots of things. great walking area. I used it as a base for a golfing break as it's in the centre of a triangle of some great links golf courses incl St David's [Harlech], Aberdovey, and Porthmadog, And the spectacular Welshpool GC with amazing views over 5 counties! The wonderful village of Portmeirion [famous for it's use in the 60's TV series 'The Prisoner'] is not too far away either

Great walking - either flat to Barmouth, or up the mountain. A great selection of pubs, all serving good beer, and a decent curry house (the Lemon Grass - but cash only and BYOB). Has everything you need for a few days away.

Beautiful thriving little market town with lots of unique shops, as well as a few staples, and a big Spar. The restuarant that we went to (Y Sospan) was amazing. You don't need a car to get around town, and if you bring your bikes or walking gear, the estuary and mountains are yours for the views and swimming.

A lovely little town with many attractive shops and restaurants.
We visited the tapas bar more than once.
The food was delicious.
It is an ideal location for exploring the Snowdonia area and for going south to Mid-Wales.
it’s entire house in the heart of the authentic Wales village with the stone houses surrounded by all attractions Snowdonia can offer. In the house you have everything what you need for your stay. Even the WiFi speaker. It really feels like at home.
The village has nice selection of restaurants, pubs, coffee shop, supermarket as well as local wine merchant (where you can enjoy your wine in a cozy place).
We stayed for couple of days with our friends, who’s been visiting from another country and all of us enjoyed it.
A lovely cozy traditional cottage in the heart of the town, convenient for all local amenities and discovering the area. Overall the cottage was exceptionally clean and tidy, tastefully decorated and well equipped, with some nice views from a couple of windows. Prior to our stay the owner was helpful and communicative and further provided some very nice "welcome gifts" for when we arrived. Parking was always possible, either in the spaces opposite or a short distance up the road. Overall a fantastic stay.
Found this place last minute on Booking.com after I felt the need for a break and to be close the sea.
A great find indeed !
My two children and I stayed in the "Stables" and it has everything you could possibly need for a holiday, full cooking facilities, fridge, freezer, large dining table, 3 bedrooms, including one with en suite. Lounge area. And absolutely wonderful views ! Only a 15 minute drive to the beach
We felt, safe, happy and cosy !
Can't wait to return!
Had the hotel to ourselves as no other hotel guests booked in.
Location fab, lovely pub/restaurant/hotel.
Clean and tidy and very welcoming, friendly staff.
Breakfast was amazing.
Didn't eat in the evening as the one veggie option wasn't to our 5aste but they did offer to be flexible and offered us two other dishes but we decided to explore Dolgellau for a change. Have been to the curry night before...excellent definitely stay again.
Great sized room, lovely patio and outside siting area, plenty of parking for cars and undercover parking area for bikes.
Samantha was a super host and looked after everyone perfectly.
Dolgellau town is a 10 minute walk along a riverside footpath, several pubs and takeaways, Co op and Spar.
You can walk the Mawddach trail from river path, but don't do it on a Sunday as the buses don't turn up for the return journey! 😂
Lovely continental breakfast laid out in the room, with mini fridge just outside (wine and beer glasses and bottle opener a nice touch!)
Fantastic room and view, and Serafina and Neal made me extremely welcome in their home.
A proper bath very welcome after long days on the hills! -the private bathroom just along the corridor
A wonderful base in Dolgellau -thank you
The hosts were friendly, helpful and provided great breakfast. The location was easy to find, brilliant for town amenities including cycle hire, launderette, restaurants and pubs. The room was well maintained, clean and comfortable. Dolgellau is also a very interesting town to visit and the surrounding area is stunning.
The cottage is conveniently situated right in the middle of town with a Chinese, pubs and local eateries nearby. Lovely and clean and has free sat which is a bonus as t.v reception can be a bit hit and miss in Dolgellau. The parking permit is great for parking at the nearby rugby club and other car parks in Gwynedd.
Wow! What a find! It was formerly a hunting lodge which was remodeled into a hotel. Our room was fantastic with a breathtaking view out the window. The restaurant, however, was phenomenal and provided easily the best meal of our travels! Truly a five star experience.
Generous hosts. Room had modern decor, well-equipped kitchen, nice breakfast options available, and a comfortable living area. Lots of on-site parking, and Dolgellau is a pretty town to spend time in. The area was quiet, and convenient for hiking in Snowdonia park.
The hotel is lovely, clearly the best in Dolgellau, the staff are very friendly and the room was very nice, especially as we are travelling with a dog we normally get the worst room in the hotel, was pleasantly surprised this hotel doesn’t do that.
On the off set the accommodation was set in a really nice area with lovely scenery. The staff seemed very pleasant (when you could get them) and helpful. The design of the place was nice, just run down in a lot of places.
We chose Glasfryn for its location as we wanted to climb Cader Idris on Saturday.
The property is in Dolgellau close to cafes, pubs and shops. From the description it looked cosy and it was just that. Lovely.
Our host was extremely efficient and helped us with all aspects of our visit in Dolgellau : shared survey maps of the area, indicated a beautiful viewpoint on the country and the sea. Breakfasts were spendid.
Just outside Dolgellau, less thanm10 mins in car. We had 3 rooms including a triple. Good little kitchen and lounge area in the kitchen. Would be great for a longer stay. Very comfortable and clean.
We loved our stay at the Royal Ship. It was a charming hotel in a beautiful quant village. The rooms were clean and comfortable and staff was very friendly. The restaurant was great also.
