Stabal

Cottages, Featured, Internet | WiFi, Sleeps 2-3, Tal Y Bont

It’s the little things that make the difference don’t you think? The decorative plates bought at that antiques fair last summer. The Aaron jumper clad teddy bear with his ever so cheeky face. And the flowers, freshly cut and arranged in preparation for your arrival. Of course the location is perfect, all the facilities are there and everything is clean and tidy. But it’s the small details that... [Read more about this property...]

Bryncaled

Cottages, Criccieth, Featured, Sleeps 2-3, Sleeps 4-5

Bryncaled is a two bedroom barn conversion near Chwilog a beautiful and rural part of the Llyn peninsula. The sun was shining and the neighboring farmer was haymaking when we visited the cottage, so I think we saw it at its idyllic best. Recently renovated this old stone cottage has been well designed and laid out. Its original stone exterior belies the up to date facilities within. A large bright... [Read more about this property...]

Llys Bennar

Cottages, Featured, Internet | WiFi, Sleeps 8-10, Tal Y Bont

As we pushed past a fragrant camellia and crossed over a little stone bridge to get to the front door, we knew that Llys Bennar was going to be a bit special. The cottage is the largest within a collection of 4 barn conversions. An oak panelled hall way complete with antique chair and expensive looking pictures leads off to a well equipped kitchen which is filled with the mouth-watering smell of freshly... [Read more about this property...]

Moelfre

Cottages, Dyffryn Ardudwy, Farm Stay, Featured, Real Fire, Sleeps 2-3

Moelfre, named after the mountain behind the cottage, is a one bedroom barn conversion on a working welsh hill farm. It’s difficult for me to be objective when describing Moelfre as it’s one of the two self catering cottages that we let out ourselves here at Byrdir. But I hope you’ll agree when I say they’re nicely furnished and decorated. We’re certainly very proud with the way... [Read more about this property...]

Cottages, Featured, Pet Friendly, Sleeps 2-3, Tal Y Bont

Hwylfa-Groes is located in the little seaside village of Tal Y Bont, just 3 miles north of Barmouth on the Cambrian coast road. I’ve driven past this cottage a number of times without really noticing it. But I’m so glad I was invited in by owners Graham and Hazel because it’s a real hidden gem once you get inside. It’s a proper welsh cottage. Built in 1754 with stone white washed walls, slate... [Read more about this property...]

Bwthyn Clyd is the second cottage that Bethan and Gary have renovated. And it’s every bit as stylish as their first one, Bwthyn Bach.
