The annexed Georgian farmhouse has been sympathetically restored throughout whilst still retaining many of its charming features. such as the exposed wooden beams, rustic stone fireplaces and tiled floors.

Absolutely wonderful stay at the cottage, warm, welcoming and friendly. Lovely to be greeted on arrival, ideal for questions. Gorgeous little touches such as Welsh cakes and a tea set so we could have a cuppa and treat after our journey. The kitchen had everything you'd need but without feeling cluttered. All the bedrooms are nicely considered withRead more the matching colours and gorgeous wool blankets. Made use of the wood burning stove on the one wet blustery day, but didn't need it for warmth as the heating kept the cottage toasty. Enjoyed sitting in the conservatory on the beautiful sunny days. Fabulous to look out at the grazing sheep and be surrounded by fields. Only thing to note is that the bathroom/toilets are downstairs but we didnt fine this a problem. Hide

We had a lovely stay at Ynys Pandy and the owners were lovely. Even though they live next door in the annexe they had the perfect balance of being available if we needed anything but not being intrusive in any way. The house is lovely and the garden was perfect for us and our husky. Even though there were sheep in the field at the end of the gardenRead more it was very secure and she couldnt get out. Cant say it would be impossible for any dog to jump or escape but should stop all but the most determined pooches. House was well equipped and comfortable with a lovely conservatory. We had the best weather and spent lots of time in the garden when not exploring the local area. The house is excellently placed for visiting Snowdon, Portmeirion, Abersoch, Barmouth, Beddgelert, Anglesey and many more. Beautiful area, lovely house, great value and wouldnt hesitate to stay again. Hide

Cottage was very clean, cosy and well equipped with everything we needed. Great place to spend holidays with kids (outdoor swings, board games, toys). Really good quality towels and beddings. It is very quiet around the cottage so we had such a great sleep. We loved the garden and views over the fields. I would definitely go again!

The property was spotlessly clean, very well equipped and very comfortable. The owners are very friendly people who give a very warm welcome. They are not intrusive but are there if needed. Lots of extras not usually given in self catering cottages. The setting is very rural and peaceful whilst still only being 10 minutes from Porthmadog. TherRead moree are numerous places to visit and things to do. We packed lots in including Portmeirion, Criccieth, Caernarfon, Penrhyn, Harlech, Bodnant Gardens, Black Rock Sands, Llanberis and the Blaenau Festiniog Railway. We enjoyed them all and all were value for money. A fantastic holiday. Couldnt have asked for more. A beautiful part of the country. Hide
