Inside, this farmhouse brims with rustic character, featuring wooden beams, exposed stone walls and a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout. The light-filled kitchen is thoughtfully equipped for culinary creativity, while the lounge/diner has patio doors framing sweeping views over the village and valley beyond.

Fantastic cottage with spectacular views down into the village. Very clean, well equipped with a comfy bed and great shower. Half and half fridge freezer which is so convenient as you need to travel into Tywyn for a shop. Well situated to travel to beaches, local walks and the pub. Sara and Dei were great hosts and nothing was too much trouble. VerRead morey peaceful for either a relaxing, on the go or mixed break. Highly recommend. The dog had a great time, but be mindful of animals in the fields close by. We always take a gate and this was needed to stop him going outside when the door was open as it was very hot weather.

The accommodation is in a lovely location with stunning views. The cottage is warm and welcoming, with everything you need. I would suggest taking a fire stick for the tv as channels are difficult to access. We wouldnt have any hesitation in returning in the future.

What more can be said than this place is nothing short of wonderful. New to the holiday cottage business, you'll find the owners the most accommodating people you can meet. The view that will greet you every morning is a beauty seldom seen outside of Abergynolwyn. You're a short walk from an incredible pub, difficult yet rewarding walks and the oldRead moreest (and in my opinion), the greatest preservation railway in the world. The cottage itself is quaint, an old stable converted and full of a rich and fascinating history. You'll find quirky areas such as the fireplace, which I'm told has slate from the nearby former Bryn Eglwys quarry with engravings from an apprentice. Overall, to say this cottage is warm and inviting would be an understatement and I look forward to returning Hide
