Karen

Perfect home from home, 3rd year back, lovely comfy bed and sofa, big well equipped kitchen, everything we needed. Very quiet location with lots of wildlife, good base to explore, nothing nicer than coming back after a busy day to relax in front of the fire and know you have everything you need to cook a good meal.

Trevor

Y Felin is perfect, spotlessly clean, comfortable bed, spacious, has a real homely feel & is set in stunning surroundings. The â??welcome packâ?? so generous & thoughtful. We had a wonderful, relaxing holiday there.

Neil

Amazing location, beautiful cottage.

Christine

Amazing location in a beautiful Welsh valley. This is the third time our party of three have been. The cottage is so comfortable and cosy. It's exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything you need. The welcome pack is among the best we have experienced in the UK with real thoughtfulness for vegan lifestyles. The Owner is so lovely and helpful and responsive. The grounds of the cottage are lovely with a stream running along side the cottage and a river at the bottom of the land with sheep is the fields around you. Great walks on your doorstep if you fancy having a day off driving. A new addition this year of a nice coffee hut in the nearest village, Dinas Mawddwy, great coffee.and pastries. Couldn't recommend this place enough.

Dave

Wonderful accommodation, clean and tidy throughout with loads of comfortable space both inside and out. A fabulous welcome pack welcomes your entrance.

Natalie

Stunning cottage in breathtaking surroundings. Owner welcomed us upon arrival with the house all toasty warm. Lovely welcome treats and beautiful toiletries were provided. Fully equipped for everything you could possibly need. We will 100% be staying again it truly is the perfect cottage holiday.

David

This cosy but spacious cottage is spotlessly clean and fresh, and is in a perfect location for enjoying peace and quietness. There are many lovely and varied walks nearby. The welcome pack provided, featuring local produce, is the most plentiful, delicious and also useful one that we have ever encountered. Altogether, a most enjoyable holiday venue.

Tim

A beautiful cottage that fully lived up to expectations. We found the accommodation very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The location was perfect for us and provided a tranquil home with just the sound of sheep and birds. Highly recommended.

Terry Frank

John

This is just a great place to stay especially if you want a little peace and quiet. The property is very well appointed and maintained. It is very clean and tidy. Everything is provided including an exceptional welcome pack, probably the best I've ever seen. The 360 degree views from the property are amazing. Highly recommended if you require a quiet holiday in a lovely place but, also a great base from which to explore the surrounding area.

David

Cottage was very clean,well equipped and comfortable. We appreciated the very generous welcome pack which was left for us. The cottage is quite remote, but this suits us as it is very quiet. There are beautiful views all around. The lane from the village is narrow in places and care is required due to sheep occasionally being found on the road.

Ian

Daniel

Beautiful comfortable cottage. Everything worked well, and with ease, lovely and clean. You feel the owners have really thought about the comfort and need of guests. We have stayed in quite a few holiday cottages, and this is in our top 3, cleanliness is important to us & we couldnâ??t fault any area. We even had a fresh dressing gown each. The welcome pack was like nothing we have experienced before, and such delicious products. Thankyou so much to Gwen & Daffyd for sharing this beautiful place & going above and beyond. We will definitely be booking again.

Fran

Very well equipped cottage in a fantastic location.

Jenny

This is a beautiful cottage in a stunning location. It has all appliances you could want or need, beautifully fitted out and so homely yet modern throughout. I really could not recommend this cottage, or it's owners more highly. The welcome basket was amazing as well.

Ann

One of the loveliest cottages we have stayed in. Lovely location, very peaceful, enjoyed wandering down to our own stretch of the river and walks straight out from the house. Beautifully and comfortably furnished, and as others have mentioned a very good welcome hamper. And the cafe in Dinas Mawddwy deserves a recommendation too.

Rebecca

A beautiful and well-equipped cottage in a lovely location. We loved our week here and didn't want to leave. It was so peaceful, just the sound of sheep and the river, with fantastic walks directly from the cottage. It's remote, so take food with you. The coffee shop in the village does excellent cake!

My family and I have stayed here several times before - and there's a reason why we keep coming back - it's that good! The owner always provides a warm welcome and contactable, the cottage is always immaculate, and the location is idyllic, so peaceful and calming.
