Very nice cottage, good location, and weather permitting excellent views. Comments have been sent to the owner regarding the stairs. From a safety aspect a handrail is a must, especially if you a little bit unsteady on your legs. Apart from that, I would be happy to recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay at East Hay Barn. It is in a fabulous location with great walks on your doorstep. It really has the best of both worlds in terms of its proximity to both the coast and the countryside. The barn was a lovely place to return to at the end of each day with the amazing views from the huge picture windows.

East Hay Barn is a delightful spot to stay in, in a pretty magical part of Wales. The view is epic, and its really special being so close to the estuary, the beach, forests, waterfalls, sheep and mountains. The barn was well equipped, beautifully decorated and really comfortable. Highly recommended.

A great base to explore the southern Snowdonia region. The property is good value for money, has great views, feels homely, and is well equipped. There are some nice local walks from the house, including Arthog Falls, Dolgellau, Barmouth, and if you are up for a real hike, Cadr Idris!
