We have just returned from a weekend Bryn Elltyd where John and Ceilia gave us a warm welcome, with a cuppa and cake followed that evening by a delicious and freshly prepared specially researched 3 course vegan dinner to accommodate our unusual eating habits! We were visiting the area to explore the Centre for Alternative Technology and our hosts were... More

We had a really lovely stay at Bryn Elltyd. Nice and cosy, with fantastic breakfasts. B&B perfectly located with v.good walks direct from the house. The owners are very knowledgeable and helpful. Would definitely recommend the B&B! More

Home-made bread and excellent cooked breakfast and dinner (with the occasional duck egg!); much friendly advice, based on a sound knowledge of the area; locally-sourced produce and materials; solar panels, bio-mass boiler. These are the features that make Bryn Elltyd a unique B&B. I just wished for a more spacious room! More

Stayed in the hobbit room which was warm and comfotable with fantastic views from the window. The surrounding area is ideal for those who like walking , want a bit of peace and quiet or just something a little different. We... More

If you are not into ECO life/ways and think you do your bit with recycle bins at home, then give this B & B a visit to have your eyes opened and be educated. The hosts are very welcoming and knowledgeable on their subject. The Welsh breakfast will set you up for the day and whilst not partaking of the... More

The hosts John and Ceilia were very welcoming; also the hotel is a vital asset to the surrounding area. The message of sustainability and the eco ethos is very easily adhered to and I left with the intention of continuing the lifestyle. The "Hobbit" room was incredible; those who judge a book by its cover would be wise to learn... More

The host John was wonderfully helpful to his guests - picking them up at the train station if they come without cars. He gave us a private tour of the slate mine just outside the guest house. He's on a mission to run the guest house as green as he possibly can. The guest house is in the middle of... More

Having got rather wet with my two dogs staying in my little camper van in the Beddgelert Forest I almost returned home to Berkshire. But as I love Porthmadog and the surrounding area I consulted the Tourist Information Office in that town and they made a booking for four nights for me and dogs at Bryn Elltyd Ty Llety (Guest...

We had 2 nights at Brynn Elltyd, en route to Heathrow, at the end of a 4 week holiday in France and Scotland, . It was a lovely place to spend our last couple of nights. We arrived early evening and were welcomed with a delicious homemade cake & tea by Ceilia & John. Even though we hadn't previously arranged... More
