This looks great. Temporarily unemployed next month so thinking of taking five days to do some light touring from north to south wales, using much of your route down the coast.
Any tips on accommodation? YHAs seems to be the way to go. I’ll be doing it Sunday to Friday so shouldn’t have any issues getting rooms.

- This hostel near Snowdonia is excellent. Old school breeze block vibes: https://www.basecamp.wales/
- If you want an even more old-school experience, these are pretty unbeatable. We stayed in January in mad weather: https://www.elenydd-hostels.co.uk/en
- Finally, I had this place to myself in August. Rhydian the owner is mega sound: https://independenthostels.co.uk/members/cabancaronhostel/

I'd recommend crossing the Barmouth Viaduct (which is super cool but a bit bumpy) and taking the bike path along the south side of the river/estuary. It's a packed gravel path but very ridable, I did it on 25's, away from cars and only a few walkers and dogs to content with. here's my day 3 route
Edit: just realised JustJ4 said exactly this already, well have it again!
Dolgellau is really nice as well, i'd head to DD's bakery for some filled rolls, eat one there and pack a few more to have after you get over the climb before Aberllefenni Slate Quarry.
