We stayed in the cottage for a week in December to be near family who live in the area. We loved how cosy & how private it was & the beautiful views. The Xmas decorations & tree were stunning! A lovely & surprising welcome along with the basket of goodies! We were comfy & warm & used the log burner daily. Our family visited for a day and we cooked & used the hot tub & the kids opened their Christmas presents. It was so home from home. Claire, the owner lives next door and was at hand if we needed her. We had an amazing relaxing week, thank you.

Had the best time at Tyr Ywen Cottage, the views are amazing and the cottage is done to a very high standard. The bed in the main bedroom wasn’t the best as we felt it was a little uncomfortable but each to their own. Would definitely recommend going and I will be booking again.
