The perfect owners who visit upon arrival to ensure you understand how the boiler works & checks in prior to you leaving to see if you've had any issues & say farewell, leaving you to enjoy your holiday.The property is located on a quiet secluded lane with the only sounds being of birds & sheep. It's very spacious, well equipped & most importantly very clean. Great power shower or bath for those who prefer one (no in-shower mat so purchased our own locally, this could have been due to covid cautions though, so you may want to bring your own along with your towels). Lovely L shaped lounge diner & further conservatory with patio doors overlooking great views. Fenced garden so dogs can run free & parking for 2 large SUV's with ease. Utility room, ideal for muddy boots & cleaning/feeding the dogs. Lovely long hallway leading to 3 spacious bedrooms with plenty of clothing storage facilities, containing 2 double beds & 2 single beds. Our only criticism would be maybe a king-size bed for us chubby visitors please Excellently located for short trips to nearby gorgeous forest/lake walks or an hours drive to tackle those 3 peaks for the energetic!
Lovely house and enjoyed our stay. Would recommend newmattresses for the double beds, very uncomfortable.

Thank you for your review and we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Your comments will be passed on to the owner.
Gors y Gader was idyllic! The only noise you hear is the birdsong and the sheep in the fields; nothing else, even when sat outside in the garden. The house is well equipped and was the ideal base for our trips out most days; (would recommend a day on the prom at Tywyn, even got to see the dolphins, in the sea). With Cader Idris nearby, there are lots of lovely walks. Anyhow back to Gors y Gader which is a large 3 bedroomed cottage. Centrally heated, well equipped kitchen. TV digital reception ok for bbc and a few other channels, but to be honest we didn't watch any TV. Power shower or bath. WiFi was ok, didn't have any problems with it. Out Hosts checked in with us on arrival - to show us how the boiler / heating worked and prior to departure just the see we hadn't had any problems.
If you've ever visited a holiday cottage before, you most likely have seen a guestbook in the property for guests to leave a review for others when they arrive. Each of the following comments was lovingly left by people just like you in the guestbook left at Gors y Gader.
We've had a fantastic time in this amazing cottage. Perfect location, so much to do we need to come back! Weather has been very mild and mostly dry. Thanks very much for the welcome tray.
We can only echo what other visitors have said- very well equipped cottage in a perfect location for walking, bird watching and scenery. For dog friendly eateries- try the Royal Ship Inn Dolgellau, George at Penmaenpool, Cross Foxes near Brithdir on the main road. We look forward to returning to Gors y Gader.
It was a wonderful/brilliant week. A beautiful location, which was ideal as we bought a walking guide from the information shop in the town. It was great. (Book called Walk around Dolgellau by Geoff Elliott and Martin Olson). It meant we could just walk from the house or from just a short drive, we would have left the book, but we will be back to do more of the walks. All feeling relaxed now.
First impressions-blown away!! Could have stopped in all week! Great place and plenty of room so that we're not all on top of one another. Loved the 'sun room' for some peaceful thinking. Wonderful base to get around so many lovely places and nice to think we had this to come back to when it poured! Having said that, weather very good on whole! Absolutely loved it and would love to come again.
This bungalow was a recommendation from our friends Diane and Gordon. What can we say about Gors y Gader? Superb bungalow, home from home! Spectacular scenes. The help and support from Liz and Arthur was second to none. If we had a wish list, we would have wished for a wire on the front gate which would have prevented our Yorkie from escaping. Our top ten attractions (in no particular order) were: Portmeirion village, Porthmadog, Betws y Coed, Barmouth, Llandudno, Colwyn Bay, Caernarfon, Llangollen, Beddgelert and Llanfair P G. Places never to visit again were Rhyl, Prestatyn and Tweedmill Outlet Centre! Thank you Liz and Arthur. We look forward to our next visit in 2013.
