About The Owners
Steve and Debra returned to the UK after three years working in Bosnia during the post war reconstruction. An experience which changed their perspective and created a firm resolution not to return to their London based careers.
After scouring Debra’s homeland of Wales for a new home they decided on Dolgellau which offered great quality of life and opportunity for their family.
They are wonderfully friendly and their local knowledge runs deep.
