Gaerau Bach Reviews

We loved our stay at Gaerau Bach just gutted it was only 3 nights. The accommodation is exactly as it is on the website. This is not a criticism but it might be useful to mention the steps down into the dinning roomkitchen we took my 94 yr old M in L for a break she did manage the 2 steps with her stick but I was not aware of this until we arrived. She loved it by the way and was amazed at the property and the amazing view. Thank you we hope to revisit.
Stepping through the first of one of the many glass doors there is that instant WOW factor! This is definitely a bright and airy tardis experience, such a well designed layout of this basic ancient building, the muted colour scheme echoing the earthy hues of this magnificent structure that is your holiday cottage ! Everything supplied is quality especially the view! Gaerau Bach has it all! Definitely our favourite cottage ever!

Thank you for a great stay at your beautiful cottage. Comfortable, cosy, clean, modern and spacious, with all the amenities you would need. Beds were very comfortable, with power showers in the bathrooms and a very wellequipped kitchen. The view from the terrace over the bay is outstanding and, as we were blessed with excellent weather, it was a great place to sit and enjoy a meal and a nice glass of wine. We only stayed for four nights, which really was not long enough. Next time we are planning to stay longer. Many thanks

Well equipped, comfortable cottage in a beautiful area. Overlooking Harlech beach, a stones throw away from historic Harlech and on the edge of Snowdonia. The house itself was great, a well equipped kitchen, 2 good sized en suite bedrooms, a sizeable sitting room and a great outdoor seating area. Good quick response from the hosts when we had a minor maintenance issue. Recommended.
