“The Great Escape”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2010

Having previously spent considerable time in Pennal when children were young,we know the area quite well.
The Escape is well positioned to explore this part of Mid Wales.
This quiet and friendly B&B has a charm that belies it`s exterior,excellent bedroom a Welsh breakfast freshly cooked to your taste.
Lucie was the perfect host ,we unfortunately never met Stuart.
As we are both in our seventies we found the TV to br small and were unable to get Subtitles on the digital channels,this though is a minor complaint and no way interfered with our enjoyment.
Would recommend `The Escape` to anyone who wants to escape from their busy lives.

Beautiful, quiet rural location run by a lovely friendly family who do their upmost to make your stay a happy one. Great biking and running from the door with the seaside only a short drive away. Great breakfast and service.

“I wish I could escape there every weekend...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 August 2010

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 the Quarry Cafe in Machynlleth. Would recommend a visit to The Riverside in Pennal, (2 mins walk) modern contemporary pub with great choice of meals - would recommend booking. The breakfast was superb with a good choice of food. Recommendations - coasters for bedside table, local art in bedroom and some veggie sausages for breakfast. A very pleasant, enjoyable stay, would revisit and recommend highly.

“A Quiet, Peaceful & Relaxing Place to Stay.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2010

The atmosphere was warm and friendly,and Stuart and Lucie were excellent hosts. The location was very quiet, with excellent views of the surrounding countryside, the room was comfortable, clean and tidy with tea and coffee making facilities provided. The breakfast was excellent with lots of tea and toast.
The village of Pennal is quiet with a pub that serves excellent food and good beers.
We really enjoyed our stay at the escape and will definately return next year.
