    “We just returned from a one week anniversary holiday at Ty'n-Y-Ffynnon Cottage and - OMG - it was everything we hoped for and more.”

    Firstly, after reading the reviews here we were pleasantly surprised by how relatively short and easy the hike up the hill was. Yes, it's steep in bits, but it's nowhere near as cumbersome as some of the previous guests made it out to be if you are reasonably fit and you get rewarded by the most incredible views all the way up. Joanne is an absolute star; she has a great sense of humour & is super friendly and mega helpful. And the cottage itself? It's an absolute dream. It was sparkling ...

    Firstly, after reading the reviews here we were pleasantly surprised by how relatively short and easy the hike up the hill was. Yes, it's steep in bits, but it's nowhere near as cumbersome as some of the previous guests made it out to be if you are reasonably fit and you get rewarded by the most incredible views all the way up. Joanne is an absolute star; she has a great sense of humour & is super friendly and mega helpful. And the cottage itself? It's an absolute dream. It was sparkling clean, one of the best stocked holiday cottages we have stayed at (and we travel around a lot), cosy and beautiful top to bottom. Having our morning coffee at the top table in the stunning tiered garden or in the hot tub was one of the highlights of our day. We never missed a sunset from the bay window overlooking Barmouth bay and loved our nights spent in front a crackling fire in the lounge. As if this wasn't all amazing enough, the area is absolutely stunning. The town has tons of great little shops, pubs and restaurants and the people are incredibly friendly and warm. We had a wonderful time at Ty'n-Y-Ffynnon and we will undoubtedly book again!

The property

This beautifully restored cottage is built into the mountainside of Dinas Oleu, overlooking Barmouth and affording views of the historic harbour, Mawddach Estuary, Barmouth Beach and town and the surrounding mountains.

Set over floor floors with superb attention to detail, Ty'n-Y-Ffynnon Cottage is a special escape for a family and groups of friends.

Due to the unique location of the property, vehicle access is very difficult, but luggage and shopping will be taken up to the property via quad bike on arrival between 2pm and 4pm.

Stepping inside, discover the lounge, boasting a stunning fireplace with woodburning stove and an exposed stone wall feature, along with a telescope nestled in a bay window, providing an excellent space for unwinding.

A few steps up leads into the kitchen, equipped with all the essentials for home-cooking, along with a breakfast bar with a stunning outlook over the town.

Venture to the first floor and discover the stunning family bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower and bath adjacent to a natural stone feature wall, plus there is also a double and a bunk bedroom.

Up another flight of stairs is the double bedroom built into the eaves, but please note there is restricted head height.

A final bedroom sits on the lower-ground-floor and features an en-suite shower room.

Perhaps the highlight of this home is the terraced garden set over multiple levels; there are two decked areas with patio furniture, a barbecue area, sun loungers and a top level with a covered hot tub and changing room, so there is plenty of room for group to spread out on a sunny day.

When you’re ready to explore, venture into Barmouth and discover the sandy beach, where you can spend your time sunbathing and paddling in the shores, or you might fancy trying your hand at range of watersports.

Discover the idyllic harbour where you can sample a range of fantastic eateries when you need to refuel, or simply indulge in traditional fish and chips if that’s what you fancy.

Cycle along Barmouth Bridge and down the scenic Mawddach Trail, which runs along the Mawddach Estuary, to the pretty town of Dolgellau.

Round off your break with the opportunity to explore the Corris Mine or delve into the local history at the Corris Steam Railway Museum and Railway, before returning home for a movie night.

Ty'n-Y-Ffynnon Cottage ticks all the boxes for a magnificent stay with your nearest and dearest.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
