  I’ve enjoyed staying at Tyn Lon in all seasons. What I love most about it is the feeling of being in a real hill farm cottage up in the mountains whilst having good road access and all the comforts of home. All the modern facilities have been put in without changing the essential character & quite ancient feeling at the heart of the place. I love being able to just walk out of the door and straight into the hills, in 30 mins I can be on a wild hillside with a spectacular view over the estuary and either make a short circular walk and back or carry on for the day. There are so many routes to explore, from drovers ways to forestry tracks, short woodland paths to ridge routes. I enjoy a short evening walk up through the woods by the stream and out onto the open fells to watch dusk fall over Cader in the fading light. I can sit for ages and watch the stream, either from the bank or inside from the comfort of the upstairs windows. The electric heating keeps the whole house cosy and the logburner makes a welcome warming glow to sit round in dark winter evenings. I was lucky enough to be there once in December when it snowed and had the most magical walks with beautiful views all round, without straying more than an hour from the front door. I did wonder about the road access but the local farmer popped his head over the gate & reassured me that his son would be out gritting the road first thing in the morning & I’d be just fine in my little hatchback, and indeed I was. I’d certainly recommend it, I’ve felt very lucky to be able to stay there and i hope to make many more visits.

  I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming little stone cottage in Wales, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Nestled by a gentle, flowing river, the property exudes peace and tranquillity. The sound of the water combined with the idyllic countryside setting makes this cottage a true haven for anyone seeking to unwind and reconnect with nature. Inside, the cosy fireplace was a highlight—perfect for curling up with a book or a glass of wine after a day of exploring. The rustic charm of the cottage is complemented by all the modern amenities you could need, ensuring a comfortable and seamless stay. Its location is ideal: close enough to a delightful small town for convenience, yet far enough to feel secluded and private. Barmouth, just a short drive away, was a fantastic spot for a day out. With its sandy beaches and quaint shops, it added a lovely dimension to our getaway. Finally, the host deserves special mention. Incredibly friendly and responsive, they went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. From detailed local recommendations to prompt replies to our questions, they made the stay even more memorable. If you're looking for a serene retreat in Wales with plenty of character and charm, this stone cottage is the perfect choice. Can't wait to return!

  A great place to stay in Snowdonia. We found the constant murmur of the stream relaxing and a great place to try out the ice bath technique of athletes to recover from strenuous activity. Tynlon boasts fantastic walks from its front door. A treck uphill leads you to open country. Looking back towards the cottage, Cader Idris forms a fine back drop to the River Mawddach. Once the mountain in front of you is scaled views of Snowdon off to the North await. We found old gold mines within walking distance and sorted through a spoil heap just in case some had been missed. The coast at Barmouth is a short drive away and has a year round dog friendly section of beach to enjoy. Barmouth Co-Op is also where bought our provisions for our stay. Sitting at the southern edge of Snowdonia Tynlon is perfectly placed to explore the area on foot or after a short drive. Reviewed by Martin

  This is a fantastic property for large groups with a variety of comfortable rooms and many ensuite rooms.

  Perfect for families as well as corporate functions. Its located in the heart of a beautiful village, close to Barmouth beach, some local amenities and takeaways and cafes, but not close to any large supermarkets, however you can order food shopping. Parking is located just a few minutes walk away with a few spaces outside to unload. The property was clean and the photos do not do it justice. Kitchen is extremely well equipped, there is a drinks chiller in the sitting room as well as a poker table, football table, pool table and shuffleboard. The dining room comfortably seats all guests and there were highchairs and cots available. Bed Linen and hand, bath and teatowels are provided. Fantastic property, easy to contact the owner and the housekeeper who is available and local if you need them. I would definitely recommend.

  We had a fantastic week at Beudy Uchaf. The location was absolutely outstanding. We put some bird food out and had woodpeckers, a Jay and many other visitors down. The property is in a perfect location for exploring and not having to drive anywhere. We had our two young children (1 and 4 years) with us and they had a wonderful time. The house was comfortable and very clean. We found the photo album from when the property was renovated which was fantastic to see. Mrs Evans, the host, was great. We hope to come back. Wales Cottage Holidays were great with their communication too.
