    Cons: Mattress 100% needs replacing, very thin and soft. Bbq could do with a good clean or being completely replaced. More kitchen utensils, glasses, pans etc would be useful. First self catering lodge I've stayed in without any tea/coffee, no dish cloth, no tea towel. I think these should be provided as standard. On saying that, the location did make up for the above as it is beautiful. If the above issues were addressed, we would definitely return. Just felt that for £125 per night, there were a few bits missing that would have made our stay more comfortable and better value for money.

    Pros: Absolutely stunning location, so peaceful and amazing views. Surrounded by farm animals and nature with mountain views. Dog friendly enclosed garden. Attentive host, had one issue on arrival which was sorted promptly. Very clean. Liked the interior, brilliant hot shower, modern clean kitchen facilities. Easy to walk into town if needed.

    i loved the whole stay -i would say there was nothing i didnt like. but a few little extra touches would make the hut a 5 star ,, mirror in bathroom, frying pan , and more cooking pots, and better knifes for those of us who like to self cater. and basics like washing up pads, brushes etc . the bed mattress could do with replacing as not the most comfiest

    location was spectacular , soooo peaceful just us and the lambs and mama sheep and the beautiful cadar views. couldn't ask for anything better away from it all and people. it was just beautiful place to sit and just switch off. loved it all and would definitely return . I just love being around nature and the hut met all our needs .

    I was only there for 2 nights but considering the time of year, I couldn’t have asked for better weather. The hut was really nice in a stunning location, it has almost everything you need, add a frying pan and job done. It’s in a perfect place for heading out for a day in the mountains and Dolgellau is only a short drive away for shops etc.

    A beautiful place in the middle of a field surrounded by sheep – so relaxing and peaceful. Sean, the owner, was so helpful; I couldn't ask for more. We will be back. The only fault I can think of was my other half's snoring. 🐷
