“Very good and relaxing home made cake was good”
Miss Garratt August 2019

“Amazing holiday.”

Cottage is stunning and so comfortable. We were greeted with a delicious cake and the cottage was immaculate. Didn't want to come home. 3 miles to nearest pub and shop and around 10 miles from barmouth town. Narrow country lanes but that didn't bother us. Would highly recommend
Mrs Hunt July 2019

“The cottage was gorgeous, clean, had everything you would need, washing up liquid, tea towels, tea bags, sugar, coffee and Mrs Hughes made a fantastic Victoria sponge cake she also left us milk in the fridge.”

She also left us 2 bottles of water. As it was very hot we had to go and buy a lot more water, we were surprised that the water came from a well,and of course you couldn’t drink it.So we had to buy rather a lot as we had 3 small dogs. Even though the directions were good we missed the Cottages’s we were looking for the name “Y Bwthyn”and ended up at the Roman Steps!!! We turned back and it was hard to find as the cottage had no name, only recognised by the picture on my phone. We did have trouble with the shower very intermittent and the single track road was a bit scary to start with, but loved the cottage.

“2nd visit to this cottage.”

Excellent place to stay, very comfortable, home from home. Great location with easy access to anywhere in North Wales. Already booked our 3rd visit for our 2020 holiday :)
Mr Tyler June 2019

“Fantastic location surrounded by stunning scenery.”

Cottage was very well equipped and spacious. The cake upon arrival was an added bonus & went down very well, thank you!. Owners son very friendly & helpful. Unfortunately there were also some negatives which would prevent a return visit - firstly the level of cleanliness was not good; at first glance it's fine but look a little closer & you realise a proper clean is overdue. Secondly, the mattresses are of a poor quality & difficult to get conformable on. Finally the front door lock needs fixing & therefore didn't get used

“Our 2nd stay.”

This is a great cottage in the heart of the hills above Harlech. The river is wonderful, walking fantastic the peace and quiet perfect
Mr Hewitt April 2019

“This is a wonderful holiday cottage.”

Excellently kitted out, clean, and tidy. It has a lovely wood burner fire and there are electric storage heaters in the living room and bedrooms. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The location is in the beautiful Arto valley surrounded by rugged mountains with spectacular views. We have stayed at Y Bwythyn three years in succession.
Mrs Mee December 2018

“Best holiday cottage ever.”

Just what we wanted. Thank you Mrs. Hughes, you're a gem!!!!
Mrs Marshall October 2018

“We had a magical few days.”

A warm welcome with a fantastic homemade Victoria sponge cake. Cottage was great. But the magic is that this has to be the best of real Wales. The road from Llanbedr to Cym Buchan is beyond compare, antient Welsh Oak trees, the river, the brooding mountains. Great walking country. In Autumn the colours were amazing. I recommend that you stay here and enjoy.
Mrs Tong September 2018

“This was our second visit to Y Bwthyn, we enjoyed our stay so much last year that we returned for another early Autumn break this year too.”

It's a real home from home, very well equipped and cosy. we had 3 storms blow through while we were there, but the double glazing and wood burner ensured we were cosy and warm. The remote location provided all the peace and quiet, and beautiful scenery which make for a very relaxing time. Mrs Hughes, the owner, is very friendly, welcoming and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed. I'm sure we'll be back for a 3rd visit!
Mr Male July 2018

“Peace and tranquility, roads are very narrow leading up the mountain to the cottage, dog friendly beaches near by.”
Mr Gaskell July 2018

“A beautifully situated cottage and well equipped.”

Only book this cottage if you have a confident driver who doesn't mind reversing in narrow roads.
Mr Ison June 2018

“The cottage was so well equipped, we had everything we expected and needed and more.”

The cottage was clean and spacious and the owners made us feel welcome and at home immediately. We were also left with tea, coffee, milk, eggs and a home made cake. We couldn’t have asked for more and have already booked up for next year.

“Peaceful ,comfortable, ideal location for visiting Snowdonia.”

We were greeted with welsh cakes they were scrumptious. Although we were told the water was from a spring and may be discolored, we could taste nothing different to our own tap water. we felt that we were catered for in every way and would recommend this cottage to any one and everyone. We would like to say a really big thank you to the owners,they did us proud. The cottage is located 3 miles from Llanbedr, down some narrow country lanes, it is off the beaten track really quiet, it is also very cosy and warm. Brian & Patricia Farthing / Alan & Julie Frost

“Ideally located getaway”

The cottage is located on a 500 acre sheep farm in the middle of Snowdonia.It is attached to the farmhouse. The farmer and his wife are lovely people and invited us in to the farm several times. The cottage has 2 bedrooms, a log burning fire in the living room and a fully fitted kitchen/diner. The nearest village is 3 miles away along a very winding road that is single track for about 2 miles.Harlech is a short drive away and the towns of Porthmadog and Barmouth are worth a visit.The roads to all these towns has spectacular views.All in all we had an different but unforgettable holiday. Really enjoyed it.

About the location

LLANBEDR

Harlech 3 miles; Barmouth 8 miles.

The pretty village of Llanbedr quietly nestles in ancient woodland between The Rhinogs, part of the Snowdonia Mountains, and the stunning golden beaches of the North Wales coastline. Situated next to the beautiful River Artro, and boasting a mild climate due to its unusual positioning behind the high dunes of a nature reserve, this charming village has an exciting array of wildlife and birds, handy local shops, bike hire and mountain walks on your doorstep, as well as two excellent pubs. The small town of Harlech is just 3 miles away and boasts the World Heritage Site of Harlech Castle, a majestic 13th century stronghold, the most impressive of all those built in North Wales by Edward I. Popular with golfers due to its famous Royal St. David's course, Harlech also boasts an excellent variety of amenities including some good quality restaurants and the most magnificent six-mile long sandy beach, perfect for wonderful walks and family fun. Nearby Barmouth offers the amazing Panorama Walk along the beautiful Mawddach Estuary, providing breathtaking vistas, which were described by John Ruskin as “the most sublime view in Europe” and also a harbour from which you can catch a ferry to Fairbourne for a ride on the miniature railway, or a boat trip out to sea to try mackerel fishing. With the delights of Snowdonia National Park and beautiful Cardigan Bay to discover, this is a fantastic holiday location at any time of the year.
