Where do we begin! This little secret has been just what we needed! Gorgeous views, we rarely left the hot tub. We could lie in it for ever staring at these hills. The owners are so friendly and accommodating. Shower is amazing! Lots to do and see, climb mount Snowdon, the thought of the hot tub gets you through it! Torrent in Dolgellau is a lovely pub! Thank you for our anniversary gift also, honestly we really loved our stay.
