Amazing house and incredible location. The views are stunning! One thing to note is that a stair gate would be hugely beneficial to the property. We had a small baby with us but for older children too, it could be quite dangerous! Great communication from the owners, would 100% stay again. Thanks for having us x

Really great place to stay, had the wow factor with incredible views and a high spec finish. Great to have parking in a location so close to town. Railway station just down the hill also great for day trips. The property was very warm and clean too, a real haven to return to after some winter walks in beautiful Aberdyfi.

Ride The Wave is a beautiful holiday home. Having been to Aberdovey previously, we were prepared for the hill and besides theres usually parking available down in the village. The house is spacious, has outstanding sea views and is very well equipped. Very small children should beware of the stairs.

Beautiful comfortable house with stunning views. We were a family of four generations, the hill up to the house is very steep, it was challenging for an older member and the pushchair. Aberdovey is lovely, a good choice of cafes, pubs, sandwich shops, would definitely return.

Fabulous house in a fabulous setting with stunning views out to sea. Able to walk down into the village and coped with the hill back up. Had lovely meals at Coast with added bonus of being dog friendly, as was the Dovey Pub. Nice walks up into the hills or down on the beach.

Such a fantastic house. The views are spectacular and well worth the climb up the hill, which as others have said is very steep and hard work (but gets easier as the week goes by). Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Little extra touches would be nice such as a welcome pack and a a visitors book (these are often a great way to find out aboutRead more local places to visit) but wed definitely return. Hide

Outstanding views of the sea. The balcony areas were lovely and you could also see the sea from the bedrooms. Lovely open plan kitchen / diner and a good sized lounge. Plenty of parking and a good location for the shops. It is a steep hill upto the property, but a challenge and good for the heart. Definitely recommend.

The cottage was beautiful and the views amazing. Yes it is up a steep hill but if you did not have to go up a hill you would not get the views. We went for my dads 80th birthday for a week and both my mum and dad walked up and down the hill most days to get the daily papers with their walking sticks. The beach was fab and the dog loved it.
