Four of us booked in to play Golf at Aberdovey Golf Club (literally a stones throw away) Superb stay - everything just spot on. We even had a pot of tea & home made 'bara brith' on the terrace on arrival. Extremely warm welcome, breakfast delicious & the room was lovely. Highly recommended.

The Cartref Guest House was the nicest place that we stayed at on this trip. The room was clean, comfortable and modern. Linda and Mike were gracious hosts. Breakfast was delicious. We also enjoyed walking around beautiful Aberdovey.

We stayed at Cartref Guest House for four nights in May 2013. Very friendly owners and always helpful. We had a nice room in a quiet location. The room, the bed and the ensuite are absolutely comfortable and modern. From Cartref Guest House everything's in walking distance - the beach, the station, the restaurants. We enjoyed our stay at Cartref... More

This is an extremely comfortable, friendly and well run guest house. The accommodation is excellent, spacious with great views and quite peaceful. Lovely breakfast, easy access to beach, plenty of parking and really helpful and thoughtful owners. We would recommend this highly and will hope to return!!

Have to say that, although booked for 2 nights, we extended our stay to 3 nights as everything was so perfect at Cartref, breakfast , room, our friendly hosts and the surrounding area. Linda and Mike we... More

We stayed at Cartref Guest House in early April when we visited Aberdovey (and Wales) for the first time. Our welcome was incredibly warm, and I felt as though I had already known Linda for ages, having just emailed with her before our arrival. Mike is just as friendly and they both are perfect hosts. We were treated to tea... More

Linda was a breath of fresh air, knowledgable of the area and full of enthusiasm for this lovely seaside town. I have been coming to Aberdovey since I was a child and... More

We had a short break over Easter 2013 at the Cartref Guest House and had a lovely time there. Can't fault it!!
