    We couldn't get the oven to work

    Lovely property on main road into Aberdyfi...safe, clean and secure. Everything you need is there. Good guidance and instructions from owner. Easy access to rear fields for dog walking.

    We were unlucky after all the rain as the front door had expanded and wedged in place, so check first if you're not super strong or you may have to use an alternative exit in the morning before it heats up :). Second bedroom could do with a small bedside table to put things on, and would have loved a floor rug downstairs for kids to play on, but very small points.

    Lovely views, fresh air, away from the towns, and very comfortable beds, towels, and warm thanks to the very thick walls. Wood burner worked well, and kitchen very well equipped. Spacious, nice, natural feel to the layout. Loved the velux windows upstairs for sheep gazing. Good comms, easy to find, with a self entry and exit lock box. Right of way on both sides of the road for walking out, and close to waterfalls, steam trains, beach and seaside towns.

    Perhaps a minor gripe, but due to the construction there are significant height restrictions on the upper floor which made accessing the second bedroom and WC difficult. I’m not particularly tall, but banged my head on several occasions.

    Interesting well equipped property, located on main road in rural southern Snowdonia close to the River Dyfi and access to good hiking routes. Very good value.

    you do have to aware of the main road, but there is gate with a good catch on it so it’s up to you to use it.

    The converted chapel has everything you need, it was lovely and warm and there is plenty of space for three people.

    What's not to like!!

    The chapel is beautiful, loads of character and it had everything we needed for our stay. Very comfortable and clean too. The road is a little noisy but this didn't stop us having breakfast outside in the bright morning sunshine. A lovely stay in a beautiful location with plenty to do locally. Visits to Aberdyfi and Tywyn and area... beautiful. Recommend the chippy in Aberdyfi...best we've ever had. Also the Magic Lantern theatre/cinema in Tywyn was a fantastic experience. The owner was most forgiving when we confessed to a 'mishap' with a glass of red wine too 😬 Great owner, great property in a great location. Will look to return in the not too distant future (without red wine!)
