  Top Farm Lodge proved to be an ideal place for two friends who live in different parts of the country to share for a few days.

  It was lovely for each of us to have our own en suite, and the bed in the twin room was one of the most comfortable I've slept in for a long time. We didn't do any cooking during our stay but the kitchen seems well-equipped and the living area is very comfortably furnished. We didn't make much use of the private courtyard as the weather wasn't really good enough - but I imagine it would be very nice to sit outside with a coffee first thing in the morning or to eat lunch outside in warmer weather. The cottage feels welcoming and even in bad weather it was cosy enough without having to light the log burner, so I would be happy to consider a winter break there. The location is great - plenty of walking on the doorstep and easy access to Oswestry and Shrewsbury. The shop and pub in the village are both a short walk away and the food and service at the pub are both very good. We both enjoyed our stay and I would happily recommend Top Farm Lodge.

  This is one of the nicest holiday homes we've stayed in!

  For three adults and a dog, this home was spacious for all of us. The views were stunning. The kitchen/dining area was used a lot, especially for a Sunday Roast we cooked up. The fireplace was a great addition but the home's heating system was enough for us in the first place. The bedrooms were spacious with radiators, and also come with a separate electric heater that does wonders. The bathroom/shower facilities were even better than our own home! In terms of what to do around the area, there were National Parks, Forests, and Bala, and it's also fairly close to Barmouth and an hour's drive to Llandudno. We were lucky with the weather, which is why we got to do so many things. However, in the summer, there would be a lot more out there available for you to do. Overall, we would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a short stay in the North of Wales.

  We had a lovely relaxing week at Aran Cottage although the weather has been a bit wild at times but we were warm and cosy in the cottage with views to die for and watch the kite flying passed the cottage with other birds of prey.

  We have been to Cyffdy before and that week we were able to walk over hills and mountains but this time with the amount of rain over the passed few weeks we decided to walk else where. One day we went down to the white water rapids ,well worth a visit) We did a few walks around Bala down by the river and one sunny day we drove over to Barmouth and had walks along the beach. I would like to say thanks to Steph for the scones,jam,daffodils and card for my birthday which I celebrated there. The cottage is well equipped if you like cooking as I do .The slow cooker is a bonus and also having a television in the kitchen dining room so while you are preparing a meal you can catch up on what ever you want . The garden is dog friendly all the way round the cottage so you do not have to worry about your dog if you let him/she out . We will hopefully be returning

  This was our 2nd visit to Cyffdy cottages, this time staying in Aran as we thought the larger 2nd bedroom would suit our growing children.

  Cottage was lovely and the views were just stunning even with a glimpse of the lake from some windows. Plenty of enclosed outdoor space for our dog to safely wander outside the cottage and a lovely balcony area with outdoor seating to enjoy those magnificent views. Lovely to have the donkeys in the field next to us and they even began to recognise us when we came back after a day out! The grounds of Cyffdy are immaculate and provide a lovely space for the children to have a play. The trampoline and football goal are fab and nice for the children to have a little safe space. There are so many things to do in the surrounding areas to keep you very busy but it was always lovely to come back to our peaceful cottage at the end of the day where we had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing break. Thank you again, we really didn’t want to go home!

  The property was clean & facilities great.

  The private courtyard was a lovely to sit & have a cuppa or eat. Bedrooms are nicely done both with ensuites; one a P-shape bath/shower & the other a walk-in shower. Lounge & Kitchen are just the right size cozy but not cramped. It was too warm for the log fire but we aim to go back this winter/spring so perhaps we'll test it then. It's dog friendly with a big field onsite & many walks near-by. Great base in which to see the area or nice enough to recharge with a relaxing night it or visit to the local Marstons' pub (walking distance) which is under new management. Local shop wasn't too expensive & stocked some local produce too - prices for everyday items weren't ridiculous. Finally, owners are also lovely & friendly. All round - great & we will return!
