  Our stay at Tyn Llwyn Barn was perfect!

  On arrival we were greeted by Bethan who has been a fabulous host so friendly and helpful. We were left a hamper basket with a range of items which was much appreciated. The property is immaculate you can tell the owners take great pride in it. We loved that there were TVs in every room so no one fights over what to watch! Each room is so cosy, with a en-suite bathroom which was luxury, especially the bath tub in one of the rooms! The view from the lounge upstairs, is truly breathtaking you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. We had thick snow during our stay and Bethan asked us if we needed anything from the shops due to unable to go out for a few days. But this didn’t hinder the stay it was very cosy and we enjoyed sitting in the lounge playing quizzes! We had another guest arrival and due to the snow there car overturned however Bethan’s Husband Huw helped us out with no bother and got them back on the road which we are very grateful for. Although the weather was very cold we still made use of the hot tub, the views when sat in the hot tub are amazing. There are plenty of places nearby to explore and plenty of shops. We really loved our stay and will come back in a heartbeat. Only tip for future guests would be just to open the gates just before you accelerate to get in as this will help you a lot. Take it steady up the hill and down as it is steep but if you take it steady you’ll get up and down with no issues.

  We could see The Druids from the approaching road and all we could say was WOW!

  This was a weekend that we had all waited 2 years for, we originally booked to celebrate Mum and Dads 50th anniversary but COVID put a stop to that with a full lockdown. We decided to book again and belatedly celebrate the 50th anniversary combined with my 50th birthday. It was lovely for us all to finally be together and we couldn't have chosen a more perfect place. The house is amazingly beautiful, the bedrooms and bathrooms are tastefully decorated and every room has its own unique feel with the beautiful furniture. The annexe was perfect for my parents as they would have struggled in the main house up and down the stairs. The kitchen seemed to be our main congregating point and felt very homely. No one has complained of a bad back as beds were all comfortable. Plenty of dishes, cutlery, cups, glasses etc, could do with more dishwasher tablets though. It is such a big house to explore and every staircase and doorway leading somewhere leaves you amazed. The grounds are lovely and safe and the toddlers have had a great time playing outside all weekend. We are a family of 16 consisting of 4 generations, this weekend at The Druids is one that we will never forget and we have some fantastic photos and memories that will last forever.

  Great place and ideal for a family holiday.

  The house had loads of space and the garden was amazing and perfect for the children and dogs. The addition of a BBQ was great as were the unexpected collection of games and jigsaws found in the living room. The house itself was beautiful offering plenty of comfortable space for everyone. We did have a problem with the hot water on one day of the holiday but we contacted the lovely Alison (as the house information pack advised) and it was sorted out within the hour. The only thing that we noticed was that the bathrooms were a little tired. The shower head in the main bathroom was a little loose which resulted in water having to be mopped up regularly and the toilet seat in the downstairs bathroom was very loose. Also the lights above the mirrors upstairs and downstairs were out as was the wall light in the downstairs bedroom. Probably not something that would be noticed when you were cleaning between guests but maybe could be mentioned in if a visitors book was provided. Also the addition of a dust pan to go with the floor brush would have made it easier to sweep up the inevitable dust and bits that appear without having to get out the Henry Hoover. These are small issues that didn’t detract from a great holiday location.

  One of our most successful holiday locations as a three generational group of friends and family ranging from ages 5 - 75.

  We loved the decor, all the old features and the quirkiness of the layout. The children loved running through and around the the rooms and garden, it felt very safe for them. The hot tub was a massive asset and we appreciated the fact that it was so clean and well maintained. The house was very comfortable, warm and cosy and clean. The clustering of bedrooms worked well. For us it would have been helpful if there had been a couple more twin bedded rooms as two sets of children had to share double beds. There was road noise 24/7, but we were warned and it was in a very handy location, so many lovely places nearby. The kitchen would have been improved by a least one very large pan and casserole dish (luckily we always bring one) and some soup/stew bowls. Otherwise it was pretty well equipped - good knives, hurrah! We are used to having a much more complete and informational house folder, it would have been nice to have a potted history of the house for example. No board games or novels on the shelves, but I am guessing they went by the wayside after Covid? So all in all, a brilliant holiday location. Thanks.

  The property was lovely, and the perfect place to celebrate our dad's 80th.

  Everyone enjoyed their stay and we were so lucky with the weather too - so could enjoy sitting outside. The house is full of charm and character, with plenty of space to find a quiet space for yourself if you wanted. There was a bit of road noise from bikes, but we were aware of this when we booked, and to be expected being a former coach house at the junction of a main road. The facilities were well thought out, with both a large fridge and freezer, so plenty of room to store our food and drinks for the weekend. The kitchen was large enough to cook and prepare a meal for a large party. And the bedroom and bathrooms configuration were perfect for the number we needed. Even the hot tub was enjoyed by several people over the weekend. Having eggs, milk already in the fridge when we arrived was a nice surprise, as well as there already being some dishwasher tablets and cleaning products etc. We would recommend The Druids to anyone who is looking for a place to hold a large family gathering, we had a great time and will definitely consider it next time we have a large family get together
