My wife and I were impressed with the cleanliness, and the amount of storage space for cases and clothing, thanks to the dressing room. Cottage would work fine for four people. Kitchen had all the equipment we needed and the welcome pack provided by the owners was a nice touch. The bedroom was spacious and though we'd prefer a firmer mattress, we slept well. Bathroom had instant and copious hot water. The lounge (seemed bigger than the photos suggest) was comfortable with a large interference-free TV with Prime & Netflix access. The whole cottage was nicely decorated with pieces from Barmouth's 'Pieces For Places'. Parking with permit provided was only a short walk away, and we managed to get parked at the bottom of the passageway to load and unload our belongings. We could thoroughly recommend the cottage for a value for money stay in Barmouth
