  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ty Uchaf."

    Our daughter and family joined us for the weekend which was filled with walks from the cottage, family meals and evenings in front of the fire. After they left us on Monday we went to the Co-op in Machynlleth, which is quite large and had all we needed for the rest of the week. We enjoyed a lovely day in Porthmadog, enjoying a take-out coffee sitting looking out at harbour (one of my “happy places”). The following day we went to Betws y Coed. Ty Uchaf is a beautifully restored old cottage, retaining many original features. The kitchen was well equipped and loved the range! Bedrooms were quirky and I’m assured that all beds were very comfy! All together, a lovely stay in a beautiful cottage, far away from the madding crowd - peaceful and dark, dark nights. Would love to return at some point in the future.

  • "Ty Uchaf is a lovely holiday cottage."

    Spacious and traditional. The photos do not really do this house justice. Very large private garden. Beautiful views and a lovely area. We will definately return to this one if we can.

  • "We had a fantastic time time the cottage was really well equipped with everything you need only thing that’s not in the cottage is a tumble dryer that you may need during the winter."

    The grounds were fantastic for my two large dogs the whole garden is fully fenced. It’s a drive a way from local beeches such as Barmouth and there’s a small bridal path just the the left of the gate. It’s peaceful and quiet and no one bothers you! To be honest the best property we ve been in so far thankyou to Sam and family.

  • "We arrived at Ty Uchaf and was really happy that it was secluded with an enclosed garden for our border collie."

    .he loved sniffing around the garden. Very well equipped and comfortable house with good sofas to lounge on and plenty of reading spots to choose from with lovely views. Nice to spend time in the garden just listening to nature and watching the birds on the feeder and relaxing on the many seating areas. Was great to come back to the house after long walks in the surrounding hills and just chill . All in all had a great time and hope to be back asap.

    Only concern I have is the £450 house keeping bond,no mention of it on booking page ,find it set very high,you are on tenterhooks case you break a £450 eggcup.i would imagine it puts people off.

Outside the cottage you'll find off-road parking for four cars for an easy arrival to your new home-from-home.

The interior is brimming with character including exposed beams, stone walls, and classic cottage furnishings.

Be welcomed into the spacious kitchen/diner where you can dine together for family dinners or celebrating special occasions, while the kitchen is fully equipped for your self-catering needs, including a gas range cooker, large fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and coffee maker.

The utility is just next door with a washing machine alongside a ground-floor shower room, perfect for freshening up after countryside walks.

When it's time to relax, head to the sitting room with two cushioned sofas and a TV, set near a stunning inglenook fireplace housing a woodburning stove to set the scene.

Just next door is the snug with beautiful exposed stone walls, another woodburning stove, and extra seating to catch up with loved ones and play games.

The large, multi-level garden is perfect for enjoying the sunshine, whether that's picnics on the lawn, playing with your dogs, or simply admiring the beautiful rural views with a cold beverage at the outdoor seating.

As night falls, retire upstairs to find four thoughtfully appointed bedrooms, a king-size, two doubles, and a twin, all enjoying country views, character features, and storage space.

The family bathroom has a bath and shower over, so you can close the day with a relaxing bubble bath before heading to bed.

When it's time to explore, the village of Llanbrynmair is close by where you can stop for breakfast at Caffi JoJo, have a well-earned drink at the Wynnstay Arms, and wander the countryside from your doorstep.

Spend a day exploring the market town of Machynlleth, home to The Museum Of Modern Art, Machynlleth Golf Club, and popular eateries such as Number Twenty One for classic Welsh cuisine and Ayurveda Kitchen.

The town sits on the edge of Snowdonia National Park where Cors Dyfi nature reserve, the 19th-century Talyllyn Railway, and hikes to the top of Penygader are all within easy reach.
