Beautiful location and fabulous rooms, suites with sea views. Book the suite as includes parking as car park up road is £15 24hrs. I would recommend upper suite as was awake at 6:30 with upstairs banging about. Staff lovely, good choice of drinks & food. Scenic walks and the beach is gorgeous. Be careful if you buy an icecream as the seagulls will take it out of your hand! We had a lovely chilled break. Highly recommend.

This is a beautiful hotel/pub with a breath taking view over the Dyfi estuary. Set in cottages built in 1750s it has lovely nooks and crannies and quirky floor levels but the beds and bathroom are all first class. Notes worth knowing, the Hotel is 100 yards from the Penhelig request train stop but the hotel does not have a carpark. There is a public carpark around the corner at £15.75 a day or a few on road parking free 6pm to 9am.

Nice hotel. Stayed in small dog friendly double room on second floor which had a view over the sea. Although we were on the main road. It was very quiet in the evening & overnight so we slept quite well. Unfortunately, we found that we couldn't close the blind as the mechanism seemed to be stuck. Therefore, the light shone through the sides of the window causing the room to be lighter than we would have liked. Luckily, I had a sleep mask with me but my husband woke early as the room was so bright. Although the room was compact we still had enough room to move around & had a good sized on suite. The room was very warm as it was a sunny day & the room seemed to get a lot of sunlight. Good in the winter but I imagine it could get very hot in the summer. Although we didn't have breakfast at the hotel we did enjoy a meal in the bar where they had a dog friendly area. We both enjoyed the burgers. It was nice that they offered gluten free burger buns. We had a good overnight stay & would stay again if we were travelling in that area.

Staff extremely helpful, room clean, comfortable and well appointed. I suspect parking would be an issue in summer as relies on public car park but worked for us in February!

As many people said previously no free parking on site unless you stay in suite i had a great single room overlooking the sea which is unusual for a single quality of food was excellent & all staff were very accommodating & on leaving the person on reception carried my bags to the car a glass of wine was the most money i've paid ever i would come back
