I’d rather not tell you because everyone will want to go here but the apartment is fantastic. Spotlessly clean, perfectly equipped, views that are amazing, easy free parking, close to everything but a tranquil oasis. The owners are fantastic, helpful, friendly and lovely people.Just please don’t book because we want it for us- seriously this is the best place in town!

Great location and brilliant views. Writing this sat outside our room on a sunny evening in Barmouth. The room is comfy and has everything we need after a day on the bikes. Is easy walking distance to the town and we had a very warm welcome from Danny, our host. Great value for the room, and Danny let us put our bikes in his secure garage for the night. Would most definitely stay here again. Recommended

Came for a weekend with my mum and loving it (we're leaving tomorrow) beds are very comfortable (that's a plus seeing as both me and my Mum suffer with chronic pain) I'll recommend this place to anyone and everyone. The staff are lovely and can have a laugh, the views are amazing and lots of seating areas outside of the room. Get booked! 😊😊😊 can't wait to come back.
