A wonderful, well equipped place which is located in a very scenic, peaceful setting. It's a very short drive from the excellent beach at Barmouth. Communication with the owner John was good and we had everything we needed to enjoy a fabulous week. The house is spacious and very comfortable. A super place for an enjoyable holiday. ##### Rick Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael M. 13 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Property and Location Property was very comfortable and spacious. Gardens to the front and back provided a good outdoor space. Large Dining Kitchen was fully equiped and also having access two seperate living areas, each with TV, wood burner and comfy seating was ideal for a large family to enjoy. Property is situated just a few minutes away from Barmouth which has a variety of good shops and eating places. Would definitely stay at this property again! ##### Michael M.

Phone coverage is a bit hit & miss in the area so had a bit of trouble at first contacting John (the host) on arrival but he soon arrived to assist us gaining access and couldnt do enough for us. Hopefully we will return to use this property again in the future. ##### Brent W. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lucy Welham W. 31 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Half term trip Lovely property, full of character features and enough space for different family groups to have time together and also apart when required! Everything we needed in terms of kitchen, dining, tv, laundry etc and all the badminton equipment was a nice touch for when the sun decided to put in an appearance! The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star on cleanliness was due to the large number of cobwebs and the fact I would have preferred white bedsheets rather than the red damask - but that is a personal preference and the overall standard of the property was very high.John was very helpful with all the information and check in process, and we had no difficulty finding the property thanks to the accurate instructions and helpful pictures. The location was fantastic for walking in the beautiful Welsh landscape, and the town of Barmouth a short drive away. This had everything we needed, the beach was beautiful (again when the sun shone) and we even had an amazing tasting menu at the local restaurant ‘the Fanny Talbot’. Again the only reason that I didn’t give 5 stars for location was that I was uncomfortable walking along the road with the young children to access the beginning of local trails. We drive the car 2min down the road to begin the estuary panorama walk - well worth the uphill climb.I would highly recommend this property if you are staying in Wales and want a great base to explore the surrounding countryside. We had a fantastic time and would absolutely stay again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/598b369b-cd29-408c-a987-33780d455ce0-1748713484799.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1a141ad6-77b2-4289-b13e-9755fcf333f6-1748713484582.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2d4c8459-ba9a-4dce-8b5b-f772ebb34dc8-1748713484742.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/97ef2ec2-0aed-4fa9-9af0-40874c2f720c-1748713484684.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lucy Welham W.

The upstairs lounge, with its huge arched windows, is flooded with natural sunlight, making it a wonderful space to relax in the comfy sofas with a good book. There is also a second cosy lounge with wood burner and tv. The kitchen is spacious and very well-equipped including a Rangemaster cooker, great for rustling up a roast dinner of Welsh lamb! The outside space is magnificent! Large lawned areas, and a pretty orchard leading down to a gate onto the estuary. Not only is the house comfortable and well equipped it is also in a great location for exploring Snowdonia National Park and beyond. ##### Paulene horrocks Stayed 14 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn H. 14 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Yr Hen Feudy, Glandwr Farm The first thing to say is that from the time of booking right up to the early part of our actual stay in the property John was immediately contactable and always provided detailed responses to any query in a friendly and conscientious manner. With regards to our stay in the property we (seven adults) thoroughly enjoyed it, taking full benefit of the size and condition of the property, internally and externally. The more energetic members of the group were each able to take in the various local walks available. The facilities in the property were extremely comfortable and the surrounding garden was excellent (thoroughly enjoyed with the excellent weather we had - for most days!). ##### Kathryn H.

The location on the estuary was stunning and the house and gardens had great social spaces to spend time together or apart. The panorama walk (one of many walks) from near the cottage was fantastic. Barmouth has shops, pubs and takeaways and Harlech Beach and Castle further up the coast were simply stunning. ##### Mrs Wendy Stephenson Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julien G., France 28 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic house and location 14 days was not enough!!

We had a great stay and really enjoyed the variety of spaces inside and out, especially with two young people studying for various exams! The Mawddach estuary is stunning and there are many beautiful places to visit locally. I guess the only reason not to go for 5 stars is that the kitchen felt a little tired - but it’s totally usuable. Great communication from the owner too. ##### Simon S. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie A. 30 Oct 2018 #### Beautiful property and grounds in a stunning location 7 of us stayed in The Stables for 3 nights in late October. We were blessed with glorious (albeit very cold) weather. The Stables is a stunning, sympathetically-refurbished property which can accommodate 8 very comfortably. It's location, nestling within a collection of restored and (some) unrestored farm buildings on the north shore of the Mawddach estuary is stunning. The property is comfortable, well-equipped and warm (good central heating + a woodburning stove). The gardens are beautiful with extensive views up and and down the Mawddach estuary (which can be accessed from the grounds) and of the mountains beyond, including (the snow capped) Cadair Idris. Loads of activities in the area include: cycling the Mawddach trail (from Dolgellau) and the beaches of Barmouth and Fairbourne. Mawddach Restaurant (approx 4 miles away towards Dolgellau) is definitely worth a visit. The owner was delightful to deal with and telephoned us at the start and end of our visit to check we were all OK - which we were. Many thanks. ##### Jamie A. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ---
