Ms Sinha
We had a most enjoyable week at Gellilwyd Fach. The house is comfortable and spacious, and the surroundings are peaceful and scenic. There are walks straight from the door. We appreciated the thoughtful and generous welcome basket, and all the care and attention that has clearly gone into making this an excellent holiday cottage – one of the best of the many we have stayed in over the years. The kitchen was very well equipped; I can’t think of anything that was missing, and I do a lot cooking. A good night’s sleep was also ensured: we loved the luxury of the super-king-size beds and the truly palatial main bedroom! Thank you so much, Elwyn and Iola, for a lovely and memorable holiday.

A wonderfully tranquil and isolated cottage, a mile outside Dolgellau set back just off a small quiet road. Literally on the footpath to Cader Idris and the beauty of S Snowdonia. Spacious yet snug, fabulous views and only birdsong and the gentle bleating of sheep to break the silence. Just what we wanted - thank you

A fabulous cottage in a fabulous location! This is a beautiful old stone farmhouse, full of character, and well renovated to provide all modern conveniences, including a very well equipped kitchen, large bathroom and shower with good water pressure, efficient boiler, and fast wi-fi. It is located just outside Dolgellau, in wild countryside beneath Cader Idris, and in easy reach of some lovely walks and good local restaurants.
