Booked a 2 night stay here with are little dog Oscar, the Hotel is very attractive with a lovely driveway through the woods to the hotel service was excellent especially from Cathy and Carol. They have some beautiful gardens and walks up into the woods with natural spring water running into a pond. Looking to return in the new year. The fillet steaks are so delicious we had it both nights. Looking forward to seeing the upgrades on our return. This only things I found disappointing is there is no Outdoor lights when arriving back at night and when taking the dog for a walk also no lights in the garden. Smart TVs are needs as we did not have one in the room. Would be nice to have fresh fruit salad available for breakfast this was a disappointment this option was not available.

I have stayed at The Fanny Talbot previously in the hotel rooms which are fantastic to say the least and the aircon is a massive plus. This review is for apartment 4 which accommodates 6 which we recently booked for 7 nights. To get into the apartments you have a front door at the side of the main pub door but is closed off with a screen up the disabled ramp. You then enter the hallway and up a flight of stairs turn left for apartment 3 or fight for 4. As soon as you enter the apartment you enter a small hallway with a coat rack and shoe tray and the stairs to the first two bedrooms and shower room and directly in front of you is the open living and dining room and kitchen. The dining room has a solid corner cupboard which has the spray mop, long brush and high chair. The dining table has a bench and three chairs which are of a high quality. The living room consists of two three seat sofas and a long velvet footstool tv cabinet and large smart tv. The kitchen has a washer dryer which is great except the dryer takes a long time so I only put it on before going to sleep overnight. It has a full sized dishwasher plenty of cabinets, pots, pans, kettle, microwave, toaster, oven, electric hob, cafeteria and some complementary Welsh ground coffee which is a great touch. It also has cup, saucers plates, glassware and cutlery except that there was not enough of the bowls, plates cutlery, glassware probably due due to breakages but should really be checked as part of the cleaning afterwards maybe. The kitchen has a large integrated fridge freezer and Brita filter water jug. On the 2nd floor you have the shower room with basin and wc and the first two bedrooms which consist of a double bed, wardrobe and bedside tables. Unfortunately there are no TV’s in these rooms. The third floor has the master bedroom and bathroom. The master bedroom has a queen sized bed, two bedside tables, a vanity table, double wardrobe a chest of drawers and a tv unit with a large tv unit. The master bathroom has a lovely deep oval bath, large shower cubicle, wash basin and wc. All of which is very clean and well presented. What would improve the apartments would be installing AC like the rooms in the hotel, a vacuum cleaner the missing kitchenware and a book containing instructions for the appliances and local attractions. The food is absolutely amazing at the Pub and i highly recommend you try it. It isn’t the cheapest by a long shot but you most definitely get what you pay for as the quality of the ingredients and presentation is truly spectacular. The chef was a finalist on Master Chef and i really cannot understand how he did not win. We have to say the staff were amazing and very accommodating as we had an autistic child with us. I highly recommend staying here be it the hotel rooms or the apartments which are reasonable prices and certainly a high end finish and quality furnishings. We will see you again on 2nd November and keep up the amazing work.

We love Barmouth and visit a couple of times a year. We stayed at the Timan for the first time at the beginning of November for the fireworks. We had such a good time that a few days after we returned, we booked to come back in March! The Tilman is stylish, comfortable, well maintained, clean and hosted by the fabulous Nadine. All the staff were really friendly and helpful but Nadine goes the extra mile. After we checked out on our first visit, I'd left my phone charger in the room. Later that morning, Nadine spotted us walking past, grabbed the charger and ran to find us. She found us in a shop further down the road and handed us the charger! What a star!! I can't leave a review without mentioning the breakfast...amazing!! Really easy going with cereal, juice, pastries etc. My husband prefers warm milk on his cereals and that was no trouble. We both followed up with full cooked breakfast. The best we've had anywhere in the world! When we come to Barmouth, we'll always keep coming back to the Tilman. Thanks to Nadine and the team!
