This delightful guest house is situated within metres of Barmouth's famous sandy beach. It has been run since 1980 by Eric and Shelagh Jarman, They have sympathetically renovated and refurbished the whole premises to provide modern comfort of a high standard whilst retaining it's Victorian character.
"Throughout Wavecrest the standard of decor and furnishings is very high, with special attention to detail and a welcome as fine as you will receive anywhere." Joy David's Choice. Many of the bedrooms in the Hotel enjoy superb views of Cardigan Bay and the Snowdonia mountains. A comfortable first floor seating area also overlooks the sea, as does the well lit spacious dining room found on the ground floor. It's proximity to the beach, the town-centre, rail and bus stations, (100 metres level walk away); make it an ideal location for those on foot or who wish to forget their car. Shelagh and Eric's knowledge and enthusiasm for the area where they live, is obvious from the photographs and a wide selection of historical, local interest and walking books which are made available for their guests use. They are also very happy to send you, by foot or by car, to places not found in the guide books. (be wary of the "14 gate drive".) Apart from being inspected by the W.T.Board, you will find Wavecrest featured in "The Which B.&B. Guide", "Hidden Places", "Joy David's Choice", The "Country Living Magazine" Guide, The "Rough Guide" and "The Lonely Planet".
Russell Davies, Arts Broadcaster in 'View of Wales Magazine 2000' says: "For Barmouth's visitors,Eric and Shelagh Jarman's Wavecrest Hotel, on the sea-front, is another revelation; if you are any sort of cook you will want to take Shelagh's recipes home with you - not to mention a Bara Brith. I like a hotel where the late knock at the front door proves to be a fisherman bringing a large sea bass, straight from Cardigan Bay." LONELY PLANET : "There's a string of B & Bs along Marine Parade with sea views, but Wavecrest is a cut above the rest." What has been achieved at Wavecrest is the provision of all that is best about a traditional British Holiday:- attentive, unobtrusive service; large, comfortable, well equipped en-suite bedrooms; good food; value for money and a relaxed atmosphere in which to enjoy your stay. At breakfast you have a choice of fresh & preserved fruit and local home-made jams and marmalade. Your cooked breakfast will be cooked fresh to order and will include Organic eggs,tomatoes & mushrooms.
