Great place to stay.Lovely hosts Cheryl and Peter, working hard to make sure that their guests are happy. Our stay was few days long and every day there was a fresh baked bread for breakfast (among plenty of other things to eat) and traditional cake baked by Cheryl in the room to have it with tea or coffee. Thanks to the information from Peter we went to see some places of interest for us, otherwise easy to miss. He also managed the perfect level of helpfulness, never being intrusive but always here when needed.I will absolutely recommend this B&B to my friends!

The couple who ran the B and B were lovely people who clearly lived and breathed hospitality. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The breakfast was delicious and it was very impressive to have such a wide spread for a modestly sized establishment. The room itself was beautifully decorated and we were grateful for the extra touches such as home baked snacks every day. Would definitely recommend to family and friends!

Location is perfect. The view is absolutely remarkable and you need to check it on your own. Rooms are big and there are seats directly in front of the big window. You can watch the bay, the castle and the sunrise in the morning. Cheryl's Welsh Cookies are awesome, but we forget to ask for the recept. Service is even near to perfection. Self-made Bread, fair trade ingredients in everything, big and really good prepared portions, very polite service through Peter and even a great view from the breakfastroom. We never felt so "home" before in a guest room. Thanks for a perfect stay in a lovely village.

Really good value B&B. Superb view from the main window in our room. Steve, the landlord is pleasant patient and for us went the much appreciated extra mile to take us to a local hotel showing a particular football match we 'had' to watch and to have a drink at the same time. Our large double bed room was spacious. The ensuite walk in shower was a bonus as was the guest lounge with wood burner fire center piece. Within short walking distance of Harlech town centre. A pleasure to give this B&B the thumbs up.
