Cracking traditional Indian cuisine. The food here is great. Beware, you will need to drive to collect (15 min drive) as they don't deliver to the cabin.

This place is a real hidden gem. Located right on the estuary, the views are stunning with food to match. It's towards Dolgellau so not far at all from the cabin.

Beautiful, unspoilt beaches

My pick of the best local beaches...

Another one of my favourites. Park up at Borth-Y-Gest and head along the coastline for a mellow walk where you will discover a number of different beach coves. Depending on the tide you can walk between them along the sand...

Much bigger beach that is home to a fair ground in the summer. Plenty of small shops and places to eat in the town so good for a full day out.

Local walks of all difficulties

My pick of the best walks near to the cabin...
[Easy] Home to a mellow walk where you can see some incredible waterfalls. The terrain and gradient are easy so this is suitable for the youngsters. It's also well sheltered for the wetter days - wet days mean more impressive waterfalls too! Drop me a message for directions and further details.
