Pengwern Country House

We had a lovely Easter break at the Pengwern Country house. The house is beautiful and has everything that you need, it has a great homy tone to it. The room and the common area are spotless and there is great attention to detail. Breakfast is great and the service is fantastic. The location is perfect, you can walk to the village in 30 minutes or drive in 5. The hosts are great, both Gwawr and her husband took great care of us. They gave us a lot of very useful tips, before we arrived and during our stay. I would 100% recommend staying with them, we loved our time there

Really lovely place to stay. The house is perfectly placed so that the front bedroom we were in let us look down the valley. The beds are extremely comfortable, and the breakfast in the morning is very tasty with a wide selection that would suit pretty much anybody. The house is well appointed, and guests have a living room to use. Owners Gwawr and Ian was really helpful and informative, with good advice in where to eat, and also on the best walks in the area. There are a lot of good local restaurants. It was a easy drive to Cadair Idris, and there were other lovely local walks.

Pengwern is a beautiful B & B tastefully furnished very much in keeping with age and style of the house. We had the two rooms at the front of the house both with stunning views down the valley. We were met on arrival with a welcome cup of tea and Welsh cakes which was much appreciated after a five hour journey. Breakfast was fantastic offering a wide choice to suit all tastes, I tired them all. Also the dishes were available in small or large, I don't eat a lot so this was great. One of the best aspects of a stay here is Gwawr, a great source of local information, so friendly and helpful.

We were so glad we had two nights at this excellent, affordable and delightful place. Gwawr is full of local knowledge, whether history, places to visit or to eat, and makes marvellous breakfasts, tailored to the individual's taste and dietary needs. Our room was full of character, with an enticing corner bath in the attached en suite, and moreover was quiet, with early bird song to help us wake happily and peacefully. No wonder the fellow guests we met were multiple-time visitors. We have every intention of following their example.

Gwawr was a delightful person and did everything possible to ensure that we had a lovely stay, providing us with great ideas about activities and things to do. Gwawr also gave us some great back ground on Wales which we found very interesting. Our room was beautifully appointed and breakfasts enormous and delicious. Thank you.
