This is a lovely apartment with sea views and close to all the amenities of Aberdovey. The location was fantastic for a relaxed holiday where we could wander and explore, and of course go crabbing. Lots of nice places to eat, beach walks and hill walks if you are feeling adventurous. The apartment was well equipped and comfortable. Just be aware thRead moree stairs are steep. We cant wait to come back. Our dog enjoyed it too. Hide

We loved The Crabbers Rest. For us the location is perfect (although the ice cream shop queues could be very noisy at times). A very welcoming home from home feel to the place. Our second time staying here and hopefully will not be the last.

We have just had a wonderful few nights at Crabbers Rest and it was perfect! Right on the sea front, next to a handy shop and waffle/ ice cream/coffee house. Everything you could need is in the house - crabbing gear, wind break, parasol, clothes horse, well equipped kitchen, books for the kids... just fantastic! There is a bit of noise from the roaRead mored in the front bedroom (double) but that's the price you pay such convenience and a great location. The beach itself is beautiful, so clean! Hide

Beautiful and clean flat. Small and compact but plenty of room for the 3 of us. Wonderful location overlooking the harbour. Would definitely recommend but you need a car to get to places.
