We stayed for my birthday in January. We were made to feel most welcome right from the start. The room and bathroom was spacious, very clean, well appointed and tastefully decorated. Breakfast was fantastic with local sausages and bacon. On top of the lovely accommodation Pennal is in a fantastic location with loads to see and do in the area.... More

The shower unit opened directly into the room which was a bit different with a separate cubicle for the toilet. There were tea and coffee making faciilties available in the room and a... More

Information on all of these restaurants, including telephone numbers, is provided in our guest folders in each room. We have listed below a selection the various restaurants close to us and the distances... More

A match made in heaven - Bed and Breakfast at The Escape, beautiful scenery and locations in Wales and evening meal at The Riverside Hotel 2 mins walk from The Escape. In just 3 days we were able to completely relax, thanks to Lucie and Stuart for making that possible. More

Owners Lucie and Stuart were very welcoming and wonderful hosts. Our room overlooked rolling hills and countryside with a smattering of sheep grazing happily. The room was very elegant and tastefully decorated, great attention to detail. We relaxed immediately in the surroundings. Great location between Aberdovey and Machynlleth (where they were holding a festival) and also great Vegetarian food at... More
