Beautiful cottage in a stunning position. The big issue for us is having a properly enclosed garden because of our German Shepherd escape artist. The garden at the property was ideal, with enough room for her to run about but properly escape proof and safe.

This is a lovely house which is both comfortable and tasteful. (Though I have to admit that shabby chic is not our thing!!) It is warm and cosy and withstood the very worst that Wales could throw at it. (The weather during our visit was appalling.) The views from the house are great. The garden is dog proof, yes, really dog proof - which is unusualRead more. The property is in a good area for walking and sightseeing. Barmouth and Harlech are nearby. The Mawddach Trail was a godsend given the weather. Hide
