    Cannot think of anything; it was perfect.

    Our stay at Heulwen Guest House was so delightful that we didn't want to leave. Our hosts' welcome was warm and the room was immaculate and cozy. We could step out of our room onto a patio, gaze at the breathtaking view of the meadows, the baby lambs, and the mountains, immersing ourselves in the joy of being in nature whilst luxuriating in comfort. Our days began with a bountiful and hearty full English breakfast cooked to order, and served by Heulwen and Andy not only with a smile, but with genuine joy. Heulwen and Andy were always at the ready with directions and suggestions for our forays from the bungalow. The house is decorated with the most exquisite taste, and although we were blessed with unusually good weather during our stay, we could imagine the pleasures to be had from lounging in the sitting room with a good book on a rainy day. Given the serenity to be enjoyed at this bed and breakfast, it's all the more felicitous that it is located only about ten minutes' drive from Dolgellau, a beautiful old town of stone structures with a number of shops and good restaurants. We can't wait to go back and stay at Heulwen Guest House again.

    Great views, really clean and hosts are incredibly welcoming and helpful. Made to order breakfast was a real treat, Heulwen’s scrambled eggs were the best we’ve ever had! Not forgetting the amazing homemade jam, made for a great stay.

    Very quiet and peaceful location with outstanding views. No pets allowed was a plus for us. Plenty of parking space. Very kind and attentive owners. Excellent choice for breakfast. Everything exceptionally clean and tidy. Home away from home. We would have stayed longer if there was availability.

    Outside the hustle and bustle of the major towns, nice size of bedroom with its own little sofa. Hosts super friendly and let me park my motorcycle in a sheltered area, boxed in by their car and out of sight for security. Nice pot of tea on arrival, very welcome after over 200 miles on my bike, the last 10 of them in heavy rain.

    Everything was lovely.

    Everything was wonderful. From the welcome from Heulwen and Andy, to the tray of tea and biscuits on arrival whilst sat on the Patio taking in the beautiful garden and amazing views. Our room looked straight onto the garden. It was a big room and nicely comfortable. They gave us information about the area and where we might go for our evening meal. The bed was comfy and we slept well. The morning breakfast was lovely. Anything and everything you could want. Served freshly cooked and nicely presented. This is the best review I’ve ever given and it is completely true. We can definitely recommend this home of these two lovely people.

    I booked this property for my husband and daughter who love climbing and walking. My husband and daughter said everything was excellent and they couldn’t fault it for service cleanliness hospitality scenery and location. The rooms were excellent. The breakfast fabulous plus catered for my daughter who is gluten wheat and dairy free. Huelwen and Andy were the best hosts and couldn’t do enough for them.
