3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

We stayed for two nights around a birdwatching trip to RSPB Ynys Hir. I feel a little mean giving just three stars, perhaps its a 3 and a half. But frankly I did feel that it is the "British Standard B&B". Tina is delightful and wants to please. What made it average. Well our bedroom was at the front of... More

We have just stayed at Plas Mawr for a few nights. Tina made us very welcome. The bed was sooo comfy, and the Breakfasts were delicious. We would definitely return to this guest house. Well done Tina! and Thankyou very much.

I have stayed at Plas Mawr many times now, and my latest stay has been just perfect. I really cannot say how fantastic a place this is. So good to have all of the options available for breakfast, the rooms are a good size, spotlessly clean, with a large tv, and free wifi. The beds are so comfy, I had... More

We arrived with the wind howling and the rain pouring down after a long drive through snow, sleet, ice and rain, and yet more rain! That's Wales for you -:) So we were delighted by the warm welcome, and a comfortable bed. The bathroom is modern clean and the breakfast freshly cooked and plentiful. It ticks all the boxes and...

Everything about this wonderful place, from first contact to our last day, was in a league of its' own. I have stayed at many B+B's and there are not many that come close to this one in terms of all round quality. Our short break was made all the more memorable by the attention to small details; those that others... More

Our most recent visit was just as excellent as previous ones. They say that it's the people who make the diference, and Plas Mawr is the perfect example of this. That, combined with comfort and excellent food, make this our favourite B & B

Lovely people, great food, nice rooms, great location, very considerate of our needs (young children). We had our first family holiday here with a baby and a toddler. It was a very nice experience, I would happily recommend.

Booking via telephone - very friendly and helpful. On arrival, a warm welcome. As we were the first to arrive that evening, we were given a choice of rooms.

Stayed for one just night as a break from a rainy camping trip. The room was lovely, and had one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. Breakfast was delicious. However, it's the small thoughtful touches which make this B&B stand out, especially having proper milk for your your tea or coffee. Cosy and welcoming without being fussy.... More
