Worth the detour frolm the main roads

Got exactly what we were hoping for: nice road to find the B&B, very peaceful, comfortable bed and lovely bathroom, delicious breakfast with eggs from their hens. Had the weather been better, we could have watched the stars from their conservatory. We had a lovely ride to Machynlleth using the small road over the mountain on the Dylife Road with a magnificent view of Snowdonia.

Fantastic location for our 2-night stay. Very secluded but not too far from the coast and some of the bigger towns. Karen and Bernie were our hosts - they were so friendly and welcoming, providing us with tea and biscuits on arrival, which we consumed outside in the garden - amazing views of the surrounding mountains. The bedroom was light, airy and comfortable and we had sole use of a large adjoining bathroom. Breakfasts were superb - special mention must be made of Karen’s homemade marmalade and jam. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay - we’d give six stars if we could, and a bonus point that our genial hosts are classic car fans too :-)

Fantabulous XxX

We encountered a peaceful, picturesque part of Wales we hadn't been before. The hosts were simply the best, the house has an "air" of being comfy, calm & chilled. We were blessed with our hosts Karen & Bernie - who are so gracious & welcoming ("Thank-you so, so very much") - Karen's breaky was to die for - as my Mam would say 'what more do ya want - jam on it' speaking of which, is home-made no less & just outstanding. Thank-you again & it was OUR pleasure to have met such an amicable couple - ps:- thanks for putting up with the chatter-box lol :-) ;-) xxxx

Comfortable B&B in a quiet rural location

Nice B&B located in a very picturesque area, ideal for couples looking for a peaceful break in an area full of stunning views at every turn of the road. The accommodation was comfortable and clean.We booked a double room which had a bathroom adjacent to the bedroom, for our sole use. The hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good and included homemade jam and marmalade which was delicious.
