1 Bedroom Cottage in Penmaenpool, Dolgellau

Finest Retreats are pleased to present Toll Bridge Cottage, a unique, characterful cottage alongside the Mawddach estuary. Stay in the quaint toll keeper's cottage, which oozes old world charm with amazing waterside views.
The bridge was built in 1879 as a replacement for a ferry crossing and the cottage is said to have been added to around the 1900s. The cottage can sleep up to two guests, with a kitchen, dining and lounge nestled around the cosy log burner, perfect for an evening in around the fire. There's also a shower room, and double bedroom with striped wooden walls all around which just adds to the character and charm.
Outside enjoy expansive and uninterrupted views on the terrace – the ideal place to relax, watch the local wildlife and immerse in the breath-taking scenery. And of course, you can also watch the occasional car, bike or group of walkers go by during the day and crossing the historic bridge.
The cottage is well located for visiting guests to explore the stunning scenery of the area. The adjacent cycle track, the Mawddach trail, that used to be the old railway track is perfect for strolls as well as bikes. Two MiRiDER e-bikes are available for hire at the cottage, so if you fancy a ride and to see the sights from a different point of view, then please contact us to book ahead of arrival.
Slightly further afield is the seaside town of Barmouth that includes stunning sandy beaches, and the traditional market town of Dolgellau offering a range of artisan shops and weekly farmers market is only two miles away. The foothills of the majestic Cadir and Idris are on the near horizon tempting you to explore their magnificence and beauty, and the beast that is Snowdonia is just a short drive away.
Logs for the woodburner are not included, but you can pre-order logs at time of booking @ £6 per bag (which includes kindling and fire lighters), or they can be purchased directly from the toll keepers.
For more information and bookings please contact Finest Retreats.

Marie Dec 27, 2025 08:00:00 AM
Summary: Lovely quirky unique cottage in a beautiful setting. It had everything we needed. Great log burner. The George third hotel & bar very near with great food. Toll bridge staff were very helpful and friendly. Great way to see in the new year! Great holiday & we will definitely be back.
Rosie Dec 15, 2025 01:20:00 AM
Summary: Beautiful setting with stunning views and lovely cozy and well equipped cottage. Just right for 2 people. Friendly toll keepers with lots of useful local knowledge. Easy access to superb walking and a nearby pub. Loved the extra little touches such as the mini Christmas tree and lights as our stay was mid December. A bit disappointed with the shower which was very weak. Otherwise everything was perfect
Michelle Nov 25, 2025 07:42:00 AM
Summary: The quirkiness and position of the cottage. Welcome Welsh cakes and fruit cake and tea coffee. Views and friendliness of toll bridge staff. Removing cobwebs around the ceilings. More guidance on where the key safe and car parking was located, binning waste and use of decking. Better response time on WhatsApp. Correct WiFi details and bridge opening times,
Melissa Nov 4, 2025 08:39:00 PM
Summary: Great view and close to a nice pub Would have been nice to have wood for the fire included.
Peter K. Oct 19, 2025 03:44:26 AM
Summary: Perfect location and lovley small house, we enjoyed everything. The people at the toll station are really nice and helpful for requests about trips around
Ian Michael Oct 15, 2025 06:36:00 PM
Summary: Our second visit to the Toll Bridge House, this time for two weeks, and it didn't disappoint. The accommodation was lovely and clean, with welcoming croissants and Welsh cakes. We were a little concerned when storm Amy came, but nothing to worry about. The Toll Bridge staff are really friendly and helpful, and this year we watched the swimmers taking part in the Barmouth Hurly Burly. All in all a fantastic place to stay. Hope to be back in 2026. The settee is a bit low and uncomfortable. But we put a couple of pillows on there to make it a little better. Otherwise, all great.

Summary: The accommodation provides all that you need for a cozy, comfortable stay. All mod cons in a beautiful area. Although the weather did not cooperate the outside lounge area provides excellent views of the estuary
Andria May 19, 2025 05:07:00 AM
Summary: The setting of the wee cottage at the end of the toll bridge made for a quirky experience and the wider setting of hills and the estuary was beautiful. It was perfect.

Summary: The location and accommodation were outstanding
