The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. Beddgelert was stunning. The breakfast was delicious. Ty Afon is also very close to Mount Snowdon if you're interested in climbing it. Thank you for our wonderful stay.

Very clean and quiet place to stay and very close to the village of Beddgelert. The woman doing the orders for breakfasts, clearing and serving breakfasts and doing reception in the morning was particularly friendly and worked tirelessly on her own to make sure everything was okay for us. The shower/bath wasnt particularly powerful but fine (maybe just a shower in the room would be better) and there was confusion at first with the room brochure saying pay extra for a cooked breakfast and then us being told it was included. For the price, just include a cooked breakfast to make it clear. Overall, lovely place to stay with fabulous walks and village on the doorstep.
