I must get the record for taking the longest time to leave a review on Trip Advisor! I stayed at The Old Rectory on the lake as a guest on New Year’s Eve and due to uni and canoeing commitments have only just got round to doing this. It was great to see the new year in at The Old Rectory... More

Well if I am being honest I was dragged here by my husband as he goes to this guest house so he can fish on the lake at Tal-y-Lynn. He was to fish with his friend and his wife and I were to try and amuse ourselves somehow!! Waow, what an amazing 4 days I had. First of all the... More

Following last November's walk on the Minffordd path up Cadair Idris, we returned to The Old Rectory to tackle the summit from Ty Nant along the Pony Path. We were pretty successful but the low cloud prevented us from actually finding the summit cairn stone! Once back at John and Ricky's, we took full advantage of the huge bath in... More

I should start this by saying that despite staying in countless hotels, B&Bs etc. over the years, I have never previously bothered to write a review of any of them. We stayed at The Old Rectory on the Lake to celebrate my wife's 40th birthday and had an unforgettable weekend. To be honest, even if everything else was rubbish, it... More

Recently my wife and I stayed at the Old Rectory on the Lake as part of our honeymoon. I can honestly say that this is a real gem of a guesthouse. The whole package - the hospitality,the room, the food and the view(wow) was simply sensational and we think that there are many other B & B owners who should... More

Have just returned from 1 night at this lovely tranquil B&B & wished we had been staying longer! Our room (Craig Goch) was lovely with a beautiful view over the lake & a gorgeous large bathroom. We had dinner in the evening which was 5star & worth every penny, and the breakfast was exceptionally good. Thankyou John & Ricky, we... More
