This remote yet accessible cottage on the breathtaking coast of Snowdonia National Park offers you, your family and your furry-tailed adventurer the chance to switch off and soak up nature’s best. Nestled within a working farm and surrounded by lush greenery, this traditional stone cottage combines rural charm with modern comforts – ideal for curling up after long countryside walks. Perfect location to walk the Welsh Coastal Path from Pwllheli to Aberystwyth using the train - station is only a 10-15 minute walk from the cottage.

Step through the door, towel off muddy paws in the utility room, and head to the lounge. Here, you’ll find pillowy sofas, a warming wood burner, and a Smart TV for winding down with your loyal hound dozing happily at your feet. Cook hearty, post-walk suppers in the bright kitchen/diner, then gather around the large wooden table to dine together. After muddy moorland treks or sandy beach runs, there’s a ground-floor shower room to freshen up in. The sleeping arrangements include a spacious double room on the ground floor, plus an additional double and a twin upstairs. A sleek shower room upstairs completes the layout. The private outdoor area is a real treat. With vast views of the Eryri/Snowdonia mountains and the glistening sea. Fire up the BBQ for evening feasts to make the most of the fresh air. There's also a secure storage area for bikes and paddleboards, and private parking for up to three cars.

Set just 2.5 miles from the seaside town of Tywyn, the setting is fantastic for beach-bound days with your canine companion. Both Fairbourne and Aberdyfi (within 9 miles) also welcome waggy-tailed wanderers and can be reached via stretches of the spectacular Wales Coast Path – a dream for sniff-worthy hikes and scenic rambles. Travel inland for adventures around Dolgoch Falls, the glassy waters of Llyn Mwyngil, or the legendary peaks of Cadair Idris – all within 10 miles. Alternatively, History hounds can journey back in time aboard the Talyllyn Railway, 6 miles from home.

We loved this cottage for its stunning views, it's beautifully quiet countryside location and range of walks right from the front door. There was lots to do and explore - we explored Cadair Idris both up the Pony Track and from Minffordd, visited the Dolgoch falls, enjoyed the beautiful train ride from Tonfanau to Harlech where we explored the beacRead moreh and castle as well as walking around the hills and coast from the farm itself. The cottage is also renovated to a high standard and suited my elderly mum well with it's ground floor bedroom and shower room. The owners were very friendly and helpful and we were grateful for a super welcome tray and Christmas decorations. We would love to come back and would definitely recommend this cottage to others. There's lots we'd still love to explore in the area. Hide

What an amazing place to stay! The cottage is tucked away in a secluded spot at the end of a farm track, with stunning views across the farmland and down towards the sea. Its the perfect place to relax and unwind, surrounded by nature and the gentle rhythm of farm life. John and Gwenan were the perfect hosts always respectful of our privacy, yeRead moret friendly and helpful, suggesting local walks and even leaving us some thoughtful treats on our arrival, including delicious homemade scones! The cottage itself is a lovely mix of rustic charm and modern comfort. We especially enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings, watching the sunset over the surrounding countryside. Theres so much to do nearby: we explored Barmouth, visited Harlech Castle, and took the steam train from Tywyn. There are endless walking routes from the scenic hike up to the lake at the top of Cader Idris (which is not to be missed), to peaceful strolls across the fields to the sea and into Tywyn. A perfect rural Welsh getaway wed love to return! Hide

This is an absolutely beautiful cottage, which as recently been renovated and is perfectly done. It is set on a hillside giving you gorgeous sea-views and is very peaceful. The cottage has everything you could need for a comfortable stay - we enjoyed a week here with our dog, and despite the weather had a perfect holiday. It is a charming rural locRead moreation, just off the Welsh coastal path with the nearest town with shops about a 15 minute drive or hour walk. The only thing to note would be the cottage is set within the land of a farm with sheep and cows - which although their fields are fenced, did have an escapee sheep a few mornings near the backdoor, and as the cottage does not have a secure garden you would need to keep a close eye on your dog if you bring one.

This cottage is stunning! When you follow the directions and find yourself driving a track through cows and sheep, dont worry, youve not taken a wrong turn - just around the corner is your holiday home and its breathtaking. We visited as a family of 5 - Mom, Dad, 2 older kids,1 teen and the dog and weve all had the best week away. Weve not holRead moreidayed together for years so it was wonderful to find somewhere we all enjoyed and which provided the perfect base to explore the local area. The owners have thought of everything and the place is just so beautiful inside and out. Theres lots of space outside to relax, play or have a barbecue. We found a wonderful takeaway nearby for pizza,fish and chips or kebab but cooked for ourselves nearly every night because the kitchen was a joy then wed sit and marvel at the scenery until the stars came out. All of the furnishings have clearly been chosen with love and the appliances are wonderful. We received such a warm welcome and we really hope we get chance to visit again. Hide
