-Y- Branwen in Gwynedd

We stayed for one night in this guest house which had excellent reviews but we were deeply disappointed, the room was very cold and the radiator was off to keep warm we used a small electric heater which was in the wardrobe hoping it wouldn't cause a fire; we had asked to have dinner and we were asked to go strictly at 6.40pm and no later, the dinner was nothing exceptional except the price was too high and not proportionate, the owner didn't give us time to finish eating as it was already ready to take away our plate; the breakfast was poor and nothing exceptional. It certainly does not reflect the reviews made by other guests and of all the places where we stayed this was truly terrible.

Nice hotel in a relaxing location, 15 mins walk to the beach, dog friendly, easy parking . Owners friendly and looked after our every need, lovely breakfast, nice rooms very comfy bed.

Our host was strange, he didn't listen and made no apology for short comings. The room hadn't been cleaned properly, there was a fleece in the wardrobe and a bag of sweets in the bedside locker. Also a stain on the duvet cover. The plug in the wash basin didn't fit and the toilet seat was loose. The dining room needed a good dusting. Our supper was lovely although overpriced. Breakfast was small and only brown bread was used for toast. No apology for this, just 'this is the bread we use.' It looked lovely but I can't eat brown so no toast for me. Generally overpriced and claiming to be something that it's not. We left feeling dissatisfied and taken for a ride.

Had a great stay with our new rescue dog Luna, she is quite nervous but was made to feel so welcome and the owners went out of their way to make it so positive for her. The room was lovely and spacious, immaculately clean with great views. A very short walk to the beach and castle, would highly recommend!

We had a fabulous time here. We went with our dog but with or without a dog it is a great place to stay. The beach is beautiful, really clean soft white sand and very quiet and right across the road. Up the hill by the castle grounds is a lovely little village with all the shops, pubs etc that you could want. All in all our stay here was perfect, we hope to be back soon.

Lovely little hotel conveniently located 15 minutes walk away from Harlechs dog friendly beach. The owners made us and our dog very welcome. The bed was one of the most comfortable I have had in a hotel for quite a while. We ate in the restaurant and the food was excellent. Would stay again if I was in the area.

Very friendly small hotel with comfortable rooms in a beautiful location; mountains one way, beach the other and a castle thrown in for good measure.
