“We had a wonderful relaxing week .”

The cottage is cosy but the garden with wonderful panoramic views is stunning! BBQ provided it's dog proofed and a sun trap. Could do with an umbrella for some shade.

The cottage is cosy but the garden with wonderful panoramic views is stunning! BBQ provided it's dog proofed and a sun trap. Could do with an umbrella for some shade. The owners are very friendly and on hand for any advice. The cottage had everything you would need including a nice welcoming pack. Great position for exploring the west coast of Wales or the local walks , local shops are well stocked and a choice of bars and places to eat.

“This is a delightful cottage in a beautiful situation: ideal for lovely walks straight from the door and exploring scenic estuary and coastline.”

- Mrs Little, June 2019
“The sight really needed a room with a view.”

On days where you were restricted by weather, the sitting room has no windows and felt confined.

- Mr Walker, June 2019
“Really lovely cottage, super views.”

Too much to see and do in a week, so will have to visit again.

- Mrs Macdonald, May 2019
“We were made to feel very welcome by our hosts - we arrived late on the Saturday night and very kindly they had tied red ribbons on the gates so that we could find the cottage.”

The cottage itself was immaculate and gave us everything we needed and we were extremely comfortable there. Perfect for a relaxing break with wonderful walks on the doorstep and great base to explore the local area. Hopefully next time we visit the weather will be equally wonderful.

- Mrs Goodson, February 2019
“A wonderful cottage in the most beautiful of settings.”

The cottage was lovely and very clean. The hosts made us feel very welcome. This location is ideal and a great location with beautiful beaches at Fairbourne, Barmouth and Tywyn well worth a visit. I would recommend this cottage to anyone.

- Mr Burns, September 2018
“Beautiful cottage”

Had the most amazing time here, nice and quiet location. Lots of beautiful scenery and the owners are great people. The cottage has everything you need. We didn't want to come home.

- Christopher L, August 2018
“Peacefulness”

Looking for a well situated, peaceful retreat. Well this is it. It has all that you need for a relaxing break and close enough to all areas should you wish to explore. big bonus if you enjoy watching nature :-)

- Lynval W, July 2018
“Lovely cottage peaceful with excellent views especially the superb sunsets.”

Lots of walks to do a perfect location to relax after a day out.

- Mrs Hill, July 2018
“We had a great stay.”

The cottage was Great, nice and clean , great big bed. Had a great nights sleep every night. We had a great relaxing stay. The couple next door (Sorry I have forgotten there names) were very nice. If you needed anything you only had to ask. The only thing I was disappointed with was the garden. The view was great but the hedge was a bit high. If the garden was as nice as the inside it would be fantastic. Even though we would love to go back.

- Mrs Johnson, July 2018
“A well appointed let in spectacular settings - made all the better by the excellent weather and unexpectedly dry conditions!”

We enjoyed 6 lovely sunsets out of a possible 7. The cottage is cosy - but little in way of views when inside but we were able to make the most of the patio with lovely views across the bay for most of our meals. Excellent walks immediately from the property and within a short drive. Highly recommended.

- Dr Beakes, June 2018
“Lovely host and location.”

Peaceful, beautiful and fantastic views.

- Mr Walker, June 2018
“Really lovely holiday!”

My partner and I booked the cottage for a long weekend. Hosts, who live just next door, were very friendly and helpful, and were immediately reachable but in no way intruding. It was clear that they would have been happy to help should be have had any queries or concerns (fortunately we didn't). The cottage itself was extremely clean and very well-equipped, the kitchen facilities were excellent and the super king sized bed was a super king sized bonus! Really tasteful decor and lovely garden and outside area- we were lucky enough to have lovely weather and so ate outside most nights surrounded by wonderful views and wildlife. A short but enjoyable walk from the cottage takes you to the Blue Lake, well worth a visit. There are various other walks near by, and the towns of Fairbourne and Barmouth very local to eat out or for a day of exploring. There was also extensive literature in the cottage detailing places of note in the area. The only suggestion for improvement would be to provide bigger bath towels, but we were pleasantly surprised that towels were supplied at all. Overall a really great holiday in a really lovely cottage.

- Miss Carter, May 2018
“The cottage was really comfortable we had a lovely weeks holiday.”

Lots of lovely walks and things to see. The owners Annabel and Pete were very friendly. We would definitely go back.

The only problem is having to open the farm gate to access the road up to the property especially at this time of year you need some old boots on and a four wheel drive vehicle

- Mr Gorthorpe, December 2017
“The countryside - hills, birdlife, etc.”

is just outside the back or front door. On a par with the better youth hostels, but with better facilities and no regimentation. Economical. Retail facility in Fairbourne is a bit limited.

- Mr Ray, October 2017
“Mr”

Wonderful location , stunning views from garden and friendly helpful hosts . Don't hesitate to book , you won't regret it . Will visit again hopefully .

“Cosy Little Barn Conversion - And Dog Friendly.”

Set up a very rutted farm track, it's really not suitable for anything other than a 4x4, which thankfully I had. The views from the rear garden are lovely and its situation is prefect for hill walkers and is extremely close to The Blue Lake (in the hills opposite the cottage). Very friendly and helpful owners and the cottage itself was clean & well presented. My only little niggle was that with poor eyesight (I need glasses for long distance), I found the very small, wall mounted TV was so far from the sofa, that I had trouble seeing what was going on and couldn't read the text at all. Definitely an upgrade to a larger TV when funds allow. I didn't use the TV in the bedroom, as to me it's just somewhere to sleep - so instead of two TVs, perhaps just the one large one would make more sense, especially when the night's draw-in and the weather turns nasty and all one can do is snuggle up on the sofa and watch a DVD etc.

- Mark J, December 2015
“Cosey, peaceful retreat in a beautiful setting”

The owners of this property were so friendly and helpful. We were made to feel completely at home. It was very clean and comfortable and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could really need. The bed was huge and extremely comfortable. We had our own little garden , with seating and a great view over to the sea - a beautiful setting to enjoy any meal or just a cuppa. There were plenty of local guides, maps and attractions leaflets available to read, so we were never short of ideas for activities. We particularly enjoyed going to the local chippy. We have very happy memories of our stay and would definitely stay again.

- Lindsey B, September 2015
“" Perfect accomodation with breath takig views"”

We stayed at this lovely little cottage at the end of May 2013. The location was perfect for lovely walks and visiting, Harlech, Barmouth, Criccieth etc. On arrival we found the property to be lovely and clean and well equipped with towels, crockery, storage etc. The owners live next door and are very welcoming and helpful. The garden was beautiful at this time of year with all the flowers and shrubs in bloom. The weather was kind to us this week so we took advantage of the lovely garden and ate alfresco most nights while admiring the wonderful sea and mountain views. I would definately stay at this property again. Great location, lovely walks with our dog, wonderful views and a very high standard of accomodation- "Perfect Holiday"

“Pure Peace”

A really well maintained small cottage ideal for 2 fairly fit people. The setting is superb for views over the Bay and mountains .The track up to the cottage is very uneven(watch out, low slung cars!)and parking not the easiest.The owners were very helpful and accommodating and an added bonus was the sight of the newly arrived pair of red kites .This cottage had the largest and most comfy bed we've encountered on holiday.

- A FlipKey verified reviewer, June 2013
“Fantastic”

Really relaxing, lovely walks, beautiful views, excellent hosts brilliant accomodation would definately recomend especially to young couples

- A FlipKey verified reviewer, September 2012
“First class accommodation - stunning views - amazing wildlife”

The owners are very friendly, give lots of information on local walks. Cottage very clean, compact and warm. Patio area lovely, amazing views, lots of birds including a pair of buzzards and their offspring. Very little in the way of local amenities as this cottage is located in a very out of way place. There is a shop and excellent fish & chip shop in Fairbourne. Loved it because it is very quiet & very comfortable. You will need good walking legs cos the hills are very steep! The owners run a pottery and you can have a lesson if you wish.

- A FlipKey verified reviewer, December 2011
“Tranquil retreat”

A wonderfully renervated property with superb views overlooking Fairbourne. The owners were welcoming but not intrusive. A fabulous holiday ina home from home property which had everything you could possibly need. The property is about a 15 minute walk from the railway station in Fairbourne but it does involve a steep climb to the cottage - the owners were kind enough to pick us up and take us back to the stationwith our cases.

- A FlipKey verified reviewer, October 2011
“A Hidden Gem”

We enjoyed a peaceful, tranquil stay at the cottage. The views were brilliant, the location wonderful for walkers like us and the facilities more than adequate. The owners were lovely, helpful and available for any queries or problems but otherwise kept a discreet distance. One obstacle was the steep, rugged vehicular ascent to the cottage but this was pointed out on booking.

- Lynne, August 2011
“Beautiful secluded spot”

Bryn Meurig Bach is compact but contains everything 2 people need for a relaxing, quiet break in beautiful scenery. The owners are very friendly and helpful.
