If you are looking to stay in the area then book here, as if we are ever this way again we will certainly be back! We opted for the space that had a bedroom, sitting room, ensuite and small dressing area and all were comfortable, well decorated and spotlessly clean. TV in both the bedroom and sitting area, and lovely view across the canal. The owners are so friendly and helpful, although the chocolate bowl in the entrance was way too tempting for my husband! Helpful email after booking with lots of suggestions and ideas for things to do, places to eat etc. Parking right outside the front door, and all just a short walk down into the very centre of town ( all be it a short steep bit on the way there and back) . They have thought of everything you might forget, just in case, from toiletries to toothbrushes as well as all the hot drink making etc. Access to a small fridge right outside the suite entrance in case you need it. Comfy bed, and great nights sleep. Whilst breakfast is not offered you can have toast and fruit if you'd like, and in arrival there was the offer of a welcome drink. All in all suited us way better for our stay than a hotel. Have no hesitation in recommending.

Mayuri had thought of everything even down to providing hair straighteners, shaving foam & spare toothpaste & toothpaste.
The room was lovely & we were welcomed with a glass of chilled Prosecco.
Will definitely recommend this place. Thank you
All was good

Our hosts were superb and looked after us impeccably. A great welcome, lots of additional touches - drinks offered on arrival, various unexpected touches - platter of prepared soft fruits orange juice, breakfast cereal pots, Princess, chocolates - even a card and specially made bunting for our Golden Wedding! Highlight was a trip round Llangollen in the owner's tuk tuk which was a great experience. Accommodation was excellent and very close to the town centre - yet still a quiet area with easy access to walks.
We loved everything. Couldn't ask for more. We had a really enjoyable extended weekend.

Mayuri is an exceptional host, who went out of her way to make our stay even more amazing. It was my husband's 50th birthday, so she had decorated our room with a banner and balloon. She even brought a cake (complete with sparkler) and sang Happy Birthday to him!
Before our stay, Mayuri provided me with some great local info; particularly where to book for evening meals. We were glad we had booked in advance as there were several events on in Llangollen during our visit and some places were fully booked as a result.
We had an early start on one of the days, so I'd asked if she could recommend somewhere for a quick, early breakfast. She very kindly organised fruit, juice and toast in our room before we left.
The property is just as beautiful as it's hosts; immaculately presented and the whole place smells amazing, so fresh and clean. The guest suites (there are only two) have their own entrance in the property, so even though this is a homestay, you don't feel like an intruder.
There was parking at the front and town was an easy stroll downhill (not so easy with a belly full of food on the way back uphill!). My husband had spotted a Tuktuk on the driveway, which Mayuri was happy to show us. She even took us out for a tour of town in it; we felt like VIP's!
The rooms have been well thought out, beautifully furnished with the lounge affording spectacular views over the canal and surrounding countryside. Our room had a bath and shower and I loved the little dressing room area, complete with illuminated mirror, hairdryer and straighteners.
The bed was possibly the most comfortable we've ever slept in. With high quality linen, it was like sleeping in a cloud.
We were made to feel so welcome, so thank you Mayuri, John and Lilly (their super cute dog). We have already recommended Gamelin to our family and friends and we will 100% be back again.
We could not fault anything about our stay. There was nothing to dislike.

Liked that it was out of town but we could walk to town in about 5mins. The views were brilliant. Hosts lovely, knowledgeable and helpful. Fresh fruit for breakfast and complimentary drinks. Had lovely weekend walking locally and exploring Llangollen especially tea shops and foodie places! Lots more great too.
Can't think of anything, all so good.

Mayuri our host was just the best. On arrival she gave us complimentary prosecco and a bottle of beer which was a nice touch, she was attentive and went above and beyond for us during our stay. The room was great, the bed was comfy, the shower was powerful and the view from the bedroom was just sublime. The whole place exceeded our expectations and we will certainly be back in the summer.
We loved every part of our stay.

The owner was very friendly. Emailed me before we arrived with some recommendations for places to eat, gave us processco on arrival and offered us free orange juice and toast for breakfast. Lastly, we were due to checkout at 1000 but the owner said we could checkout a bit later if it suited us.
She was super friendly and the room was well designed and boasted a very good view of the village.

Absolutely OUTSTANDING!!! Can not fault this hotel in anyway at all!
The owners are SO lovely and go above and beyond to make your stay special. The whole place is simply beautiful and so relaxing. They have literally thought of everything and everywhere is spotlessly clean.
Personal touches and little extras make all the difference.
Can not thank you enough for making my birthday break away so special and really cheering me up. xx
going home :(

The room was great, amazing views and such a comfy bed with all the facilities you need or want. But the best thing about our stay were the amazing hosts who couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable, going above and beyond providing a lovely breakfast and even a trip in a tuk tuk! we felt very spoilt throughout our stay and would recommend it to everyone!
the only downside was that we didn’t stay longer!

We had Suite 3 - a separate sitting room with sumptuous sofa, convenient desk, and wonderful view over the canal basin. Quite quirky, but in a lovely way. Spacious bedroom, great bathroom, and a bed big enough to get lost in! Extremely warm and welcoming hosts. Everything, I mean Everything, has been carefully thought through - from welly racks and boot drying, to the room's comforts. Meticulous, yet relaxed. We didn't have the opportunity, but go for the tuk-tuk ride if offered! No breakfast offered, but great cafe recommendations within 5 minutes' walk - a different but great way to start the day.
Nothing - its great just as it is.

Hosts Mayuri and John where just fabulous, very welcoming, polite, cheerful and very knowledgeable, they informed us of all the local attractions, walks and restaurants. Room was fantastic, very scenic views from bedroom windows, good quality mattress and furniture in general. Great selection of teas/coffee/chocolate/water, biscuits etc, and replenished every day, plenty of towels and shower products. The property and rooms are of a very high standard.
Easy parking and great access to Llangollen town. Plenty of walks, canal and River Dee on the doorstep. A visit to the aqueduct is a must and a walk up to the castle ruins(Dinas Bran) is well worth if for the views.
The hosts are just very genuine great people who make you feel at home and do all they can to make your stay a memorable one which they did for us, we cant thank them enough.
Mayuri has many talents including her cuisine, delicious, and the tuk tuk makes you smile.
Thank you for the best home vacation we have ever had.
Take care
John and Laura

Beautiful decor, loads of space. Incredible view. We were made so very welcome from the moment we arrived to the time we left. Nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic hosts.
The slightest of suggestions (which would only be appropriate if you were staying for more than a couple of days) is that there is little facility for putting your clothing away ie a small chest of drawers would be great! but otherwise fabulous.
