My friend and I very much enjoyed our 3 night stay.
The rooms were comfortable,clean and had great views.
Norma was a charming host and looked after us well.
It is a 10 minute walk from Dolgellau village,not too steep a walk back and the last part can be accessed safely from a driveway and not the road as a previous reviewer wrote.
We would return.

Comfortable stay

Described as a short (10 minute) walk to the town the return trip is very steep with the last part having no pavements. The property is not well suited for those with ambulatory issues. Our towels were not changed throughout our 3 day stay and there was no way of drying them in the room. The hosts were friendly and the breakfast choice was good. No evening meals were available and no takeaway food was allowed in the room.

great view but hard climb

Spend just one night a Dwy Olwyn as we were on our way back from North Wales the property is very clean and tidy with amazing views out over towards Cadair Idris.Our room with twin beds was a little on the small side but was adequate for our needs.We had a separate private bathroom which was very clean.The breakfast was lovely with a choice of cereals and yoghurt followed by cooked breakfast and toast.We also enjoyed a lovely cuppa shortly after arrival and were invited to seat outside and enjoy the amazing views and very warm afternoon sun.Also town is just a 10 minute walk away so very convenient.Our hosts spent time to have a chat.

Great views

I booked here as I was looking for somewhere in a reasonable location to the ZipWorld Slate Caverns and this was the most reasonably priced in a close enough vicinity. 

Was warmly welcomed by Norma and given a double room with a private adjacent bathroom. Whilst decor was dated, room was clean and tidy and perfect for us. Bathroom was very modern and had both bath & shower facilities. 

Breakfast was perfect with a great full cooked option along with cereals/fruit - greatly received before a long day as ZipWorld! 

Location was truly brilliant - really fantastic views and only a short walk into the centre which had plenty of dining options.

First trip to Wales

I stayed here for three nights as it was convenient for visiting local steam railways. My room was clean and I had the sole use of the adjacent bathroom. Breakfast was very good and there was off-road parking. It was a short walk into Dolgellau (uphill coming back!), where there was a good choice of eating places in the evening. I would certainly stay with Norma again if I was in the area.

Comfortable stay and warm welcome

We arrive at the property at the agreed time, booking made months in advance and paid for, just to find that they gave our room to someone else.

The manager tried to blame this on a booking software error, 
unlikely, as we had the confirmations for the booking and payment had been received.

We were left with finding another accommodation, which we were able to do.
AVOID unless you want to waste time and energy finding an alternative, just look 
for an alternative in the first place, you can thank me later.

Overbooked!

This B & B is in a great position for views of Cadair Idris - especially from the top of the garden. Breakfasts are nicely cooked by Norma who is a fount of local knowledge, pointing us in the direction of the Osprey Project, just south of Machynllech. Also recommending Y Sospan for dinner - the owner is a local farmer who breeds the lamb for the restaurant.

The only drawback was that the room was a little cramped, but we did have our own private bathroom adjoining. All nice and clean.

Amazing views! Good value

Norma was very friendly and helpful with nearby walking attractions. Stayed 2 nights , twin room not large but had sole use of good bathroom. Breakfast time to suit our walking plans with good food options. Useful that Norma can also provide good value packed lunches. 10 minute walk into town for good pub meal. Car parked off the road.Will definitely be back again. Mark T.
