Could have done ...

    Being able to easily turn the water and heating on and off at will was a real bonus. Good location for strolling to Barmouth, Fairbourne beach & Cregennan Lakes. Lots more, big and small, within a few miles' drive. No complaints about customer service. We asked the (very friendly) owners if they had a spare tea strainer or cafetiere since neither had been provided, went away with a strainer and a cafetiere turned up an hour later which really was going "above and beyond". Could have done with some more kitchen knives but apparently they tend to go walkabouts.

About the location

ARTHOG

Fairbourne 3 miles; Dolgellau 7 miles; Aberdovey 18 miles.

The village of Arthog is situated on the lower reaches of the beautiful Mawddach Estuary, which runs from the renowned seaside town of Barmouth to the outskirts of delightful Dolgellau, nestled beside the foothills of one of Wales' most spectacular mountains, Cader Idris. One of the most popular walking and cycling routes in Wales passes through Arthog: the 4.5 mile nature trail along the Estuary, ideal for birdwatching. Close by, the village resort of Fairbourne boasts a safe sandy beach with rock pools at either end of a two mile stretch of golden sands. The famous narrow gauge steam railway journeys through awe-inspiring scenery to a small ferry carrying foot passengers to Barmouth. Dolgellau is a splendid little town, just 7 miles away, offering a variety of shops, pubs and restaurants and is surrounded by the stunning National Park, providing wonderful walking and a range of outdoor pursuits.
