    Nothing hugely negative at all, all clean and in working order. Only words of improvement is topping up the dish soap, and having the tea / coffee and sugar refreshed.

    Amazing location, a little gem. Beautiful views and pretty central for all the activities we had planned for our stay. Literally a brief walk from llyn tan y graig (the lake at the top of a 20 minute climb), which is absolutely stunning and well worth it.

    Cottage/Hut needs a sign so that you know where it is on the property. It's hidden from view once google has brought you to the farm yard.

    Location, Clean, warm, cottage. Views.

    Some of the reviews said it was a little small but I’m not sure what people expect with a shepherd’s hut. It was lovely and great for our family of 4. There was a little radiator we put on at night and the hut warmed up quickly. We had a great stay and the owner was really helpful.

    The place need a proper heater. The owner did provide a portable heater when we asked for it. It was okay for the weather when we were there but if you are renting this place in winter, you will need the proper heater. Finding the location using GPS is challenging...just call the owner to direct you to the place.

    A place to relax and to enjoy the breathtaking view. Love the open space. The cabin is small but that's the whole point of renting this place, to experience living in a tiny home. The cabin is clean, modern and cosy. All the facilities work. Good base to explore the area.

    If you plan to stay more than one night which I’m not sure how practical that would be but I just personally think maybe some seat cushions on the dining room table would make it more comfy . But apart from that everything was perfect.

    Really nice little over night stay . Beds are super comfy and spacious .really nice and cosy . Secure garden area for dogs .

    The place is very nice and cosy, clean and well equipped. The view from the cabin is breathtaking, and it's a bit hidden, giving extra privacy and a calm and quiet spot. Sarah, the owner, is really nice and has helped us with everything we needed.

    I anticipated a quiet night with only horses as described. The first night was very quiet. The second night we were kept awake all night by the agitated bleating of lambs whose ewe was separated from them right behind our hut. The bunk bed was also quite enclosed making for limited movement. It was also difficult to locate the property - needed to call to receive directions - would recommend including in a welcome email. Finally, the odours from the septic system were very strong but it helped to keep the bathroom door closed.

    Lovely view of Cadair Idris and close to Dolgellau. Great pizza restaurant nearby. First night was very quiet.

    Was a little to close to the road for my liking, though you are cocooned in so no one looking in. We didn't think the bunk bed set up would be an issue but it was for us unfortunately, bed was comfy but felt to enclosed and you lose that space to be able to sit on the bed. The blinds were automatic, but unfortunately, some either not working or missing all together. The kitchen units were difficult to open and appears they were in the middle of installing a little log burner but was not finished. We stayed for just one night, last minute booking as passing through. It's a two berth space really so not sure why the additional bed was added as anymore than two people would be a squeeze especially during the colder months where using the outside space is not an option.

    Lovely little hut located on a small holding with some unbelievable views. The stars at night were unreal. . Bed was comfy and the shower was great. Plenty of parking and only a short ride to town for food and drinks.

    - cold/lukewarm water, especially for shower - ill-placed light switches in bed areas - unusable sockets by table ( too close to table) and none in bunk bed areas. - seating area cramped/uncomfortable -blinds missing - No real storage for unpacking - Really Really cold! Heater didn't do anything unfortunately.

    - modern interior - Really comfortable beds - Everything you need in the Kitchen area -Wifi - Great bathroom - Great customer services and interactions, grateful for the logs. - potential of a wood stove -The potential for the outside area, loved the fire pit.

    I stayed here with my family of four,There is no way this is big enough for 4, we couldn't more. The kids had the top bunk and the ladder did not fill stable at all,the place is so small that every time someone went to the loo it woke up everyone else and the whole place shook. There was no manual on how to use electric blinds ect just had to guess. We also asked for the WiFi code on 4 different occasions and where not given it, ended up using so much data. It was also overpriced as we then moved on to somewhere else that cost the same but for 2 more days. Photos misleading.

    The setting was beautiful, loved the horses walking around and the wildlife, very quiet and perfect location for what we wanted to do and not far from two lovely towns either.
