Peace and quiet
The property is small but that is part of the charm. Only two of us and it was exactly what we wanted. Managed to cook a huge Christmas dinner and had some beautiful walks. Had a lovely relaxing break in beautiful surroundings.

A stay at Riverside Cottage
We had a lovely week at the cottage, which is set in a beautiful peaceful location with the stream in front and lots of birdsong! The weather was mixed but the cottage has ample hot water and good drying facilities. We enjoyed exploring the mountains and beaches nearby, and visiting both Dolgellau and Barmouth. Highly recommended!

Ideal Tranquil Get-Away
Riverside Cottage is in the most beautiful location with a wonderful walk to the estuary along the river bank. A walk along the tree lined entrance by the river, the trees are amazing! So beautiful and tranquil watching the river run by and looking out for fish! The cottage itself is a real home from home, it has all you need for the perfect stay. Excellent host! We will be back for sure. Thank you so much.
