Penygrisiau Reviews

Matthew
Weve stayed in area many times but found this cottage in the middle of the town and really enjoyed the stay. Great for the morning walks to the beach with the dog and also for popping out for lunchevening meals knowing youre only minutes away. We are at the Bank, Barmouth Grill pub and Saffron and found all to be really good. Will definitely be back.
Christopher
A beautiful grade II home made lovely by the owners. Right in the centre of everything. We had a lovely stay to celebrate dad's 90th birthday. Everything you needed was there. Kitchen had everything even a coffee and tea station with cookies, airfryer, microwave etc. Highly recommend. In relation to parking there are quite a few nearby but avoid the one that advertises 5 all day, this does not cover after 9pm and the owner is the most unpleasant person l have ever met, extremely rude.
Gaynor
Lovely cottage right in the centre of Barmouth fantastic garden area though it was a bit wet to sit out i can imagine its beautiful in the summer time . Modern and beautifully decorated through out
This is a lovely cottage, its in a fantastic location and had great facilities . It was beautifully presented and would highly recommend a stay
Victoria
Lovely cottage everything you need and close to everything would definitely return
A captivating character home in the heart of Barmouth. Sociable courtyard, lower level may be suited for bike storage. Very generously provisioned tea coffee condiments etc. including for the dog! We occupied first floor only. Steep internal steps not suited to very young or the mobility impaired. Lovely helpful host, who went over and above for us. We would happily return.
The cottage was so beautiful, cosy, comfy and luxurious. It was so clean and beautiful styled. Amazing location in the middle of Barmouth. We loved our stay
Sheena
Beautiful cottage, tastefully decorated throughout, Great outdoor areas and good location. Would highly recommend. Only one drawback there are no outside bins.
Beautiful cottage in the heart of Barmouth. Perfect location, lovely patio to have a coffee or a glass of wine while saying hello to the passers by!
