I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were very nice, clean, vintage style, and comfortable, making my holiday break very enjoyable. The price of £152 for 2 nights Bed and Breakfast was reasonable. The small room was surprisingly comfortable with a lovely window seat to enjoy the stunning bay view.

The location was superb, right on the beach with outstanding views of the mountains. Directly across the road from Barmouth's sandy beach, it's perfect for walks for all ages and ideal with lovely views on the level. A great use of the space available.

The dining experience was exceptional. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide choice of fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereals, and a well-sized cooked breakfast. Shelagh's cooking was outstanding, far better than standard buffets.

The hotel offers spacious and well-appointed rooms with very comfortable beds. It felt a little drab with no view, but cleanliness was impeccable. The service was exceptionally friendly, and they even purchased green tea specifically for me. The location was a real gem near the beach, providing a quiet and relaxing atmosphere away from the busy center. The dining experience was superb, especially the full Welsh breakfast. A wonderful stay with great value for money.
