If you’re ready to roam, this cottage is your dream. Lead the way to adventure with this three-bedroom place with space for six guests and two dogs in the heart of Snowdonia National Park. It’s ideal for an outdoorsy family looking for an active holiday who knows that you don’t have to travel far for stunning views, extreme sports and challenging walks. When you come back, tired but happy from the day’s excursions, you can curl up in front of a wood burner and get stuck into a game night as your dogs snooze by your feet.

This property has three cosy bedrooms: two doubles and one twin room. One of the double rooms has an en-suite bathroom for long, steamy showers to ease achy muscles – there’s a family bathroom for everyone else! The upstairs decor is minimalist with wood touches, and downstairs it is snug and quaint, opening up to a kitchen/dining room. If it’s sunny, you could fire up the garden BBQ or sit on the swing seat to watch the birds. The enclosed garden is great for curious kids and outgoing dogs, and it''s full of different shrubs for Fido and Milo to smell and hide behind.

When everyone’s got their boots on, you can explore the surrounding 35 acres of farmland and woods. Alternatively, try geocaching from the Coed y Brenin Forest Park Centre or visit Barmouth (both 10 miles away) for a dog-friendly beach and restaurants for you and your four-legged friend. Adventurers looking for timeless trips to remember for years to come should pick up their paws and sniff out this beautiful place.

One of the loveliest holiday cottages we have stayed in. Clean, cosy, quiet and in a gorgeous setting. Very pretty enclosed garden with sheep as neighbours.We did a fabulous walk straight from the door as well visiting forests, beaches and mountains. We all appreciated the lovely welcome treats. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you.

Our third stay at this cottage and one we enjoyed very much. It's cosy and peaceful, shops are a short dive away with good quality roads between Brithdir & Dolgellau. This is important if the weather is poor. The garden was loaded with birds (probably ''cos we kept feeding them) and a working, modern, TV connected to FREESAT meant we could alwaysRead more get a TV signal. Some food stuffs left in the fridge for tea, coffee & toast on arrival was a thoughtful touch . It's so nice to be able to open your windows at night and not being able to hear a thing! We hope to return in the not too distant future. Thank you again :-) Hide

Tyn Gaer is a lovely cottage in a great location for privacy and walking (eg. Torrent Walk, Precipice Walk and Foel Offram) and visiting places like Dolgellau and Bala. Visitors are welcome to wander over the nearby fields which belong to the farm and can also access walks on the Common.

We enjoyed a three generational family holiday at Tyn Gaer. It was a good base for sightseeing and hiking in this lovely area of Wales. The property is in a quiet rural location away from traffic and our grandchildren had a great time. We hope to return for another stay.

The property was very easy to find. Lovely location. Very clean and the floors were easy to clean. Attractions were all within acceptable driving parameters for us. Beautiful part of the world. Wherever you turn there is a stunning view. My preference to South Wales which is more industrial I guess. We would definately come again for sure. Keep it Read moreup. Hide

The cottage is in a beautiful surrounding and has a warm and friendly atmosphere as soon as you walk in through the door. It feels safe and secure and I was able to allow my children to play at the rear of the property without worry.
