“We have been twice this year!”

- Mr Harwood, October 2019
“First class experience with everything we needed and more to make our stay as perfect as it was.”

Great location with regards to getting to Snowden and other local attractions We will definitely look to book again?!

- Mr Freeman, October 2019
“What put us off was the visit and constant drive pasts of the caretaker.”

At 8:18 on our 1st morning he came calling, his hand on the door handle ready to step in. Fair enough he came to tell us that the extractor fan wasn’t working but surely this could have been written in a note. I was in my PJ’s making chit chat - no thanks I’m on hols. I felt I was being watched the whole time. On check out at 9:40 he arrives again with mop & bucket in hand, at 10.05 barges in so please be prompt with check out time. Unfortunately I got the times mixed with a previous cottage who’s check out time was 11am, :( The crockery was filthy had to be rewashed before use, upstairs was cheaply finished and let the place down. Take plenty of loo roll, only one supplied, cheap brand at that. For such a beautiful renovated cottage the finishing touches let it down, why has everyone got to shop at IKEA. The location however was top marks for us

- Ms Price, October 2019
“Tyn Llwyn Cornel is absolutely lovely in a beautiful tranquil location - surrounded by sheep, cows and stunning mountain views, staying here is extremely relaxing, a place where you can sit back and enjoy nature.”

Very comfortable, cosy, and well-equipped, this is the perfect base to explore the beaches and mountains of Snowdonia. I highly recommend Tyn Llwyn Cornel and would love to return - the same goes for our dog who had a whale of a time!!

- Miss Burroughs, September 2019
“Gorgeous cottage and very friendly and helpful host.”

- Mrs Griffin, August 2019
“Lovely well equipped little cottage in a beautiful location.”

- Miss Le Jeune, August 2019
“Stayed at this beautiful barn for a weeks holiday and wasn’t disappointed.”

Set in lovely grounds and close to lots of different attractions and beaches. The barn was modern with a rustic feel and had everything we needed for a family of 4. The owner Alex was great and easy to contact with any questions. He gave me loads of info before the stay about the area and different things to do there. Nothing seemed like too much trouble. Can’t wait to return

- Mrs Hailwood, July 2019
“Superb local, lovely cottage, Good facilities”

- Mr Vass, June 2019
“Excellent short break.”

We look forward to returning soon

- Mrs Jones, June 2019
“A wonderful, very peaceful location with fabulous views close to local amenities and all that Llyn Peninsula and Snowdonia have to offer.”

Lovely, secure paddock area - we loved the extra touches like the huge log bench, the slate plinth table and the new tree planting. Perfect location for our very nervous rescue dog too. Many thanks to Alex - such a friendly, helpful owner (as were all the people we met locally). Can't wait to go back.

“Amazing cottage modern interior and rustic feel ...”

Amazing cottage modern interior and rustic feel Perfect location 10 mins from porthmadog and Snowdon Will def be booking again

- Adrian Miles,
“A top little cottage and a great base for a holiday near the mountains and the beach”

- Peter Valentine,
“On the approach my daughter asked why were we staying in a bus shelter.”

The cottage is dwarfed by the magnificent surroundings. Certainly much larger inside than it appears outside. Very well equipped and comfortable. Some lovely craftsman furniture. Very quiet country location apart from the occasional toot of a steam train chuffing across the vista. We even spotted an Osprey hunting in the paddock. Just one warning, the bathroom is downstairs and the stairs are quite steep if you don't have 100% mobility. There is so much to see and do in North Wales I'm sure we'll be back soon.

The property

The quality and detail that has gone into this dear little cottage is superb, both inside and out.

With a subtle mountain theme, perfect for its' setting, much of the individual furniture has been hand crafted from local wood - we adore the coat hooks! "Tyn Llwyn Cornel is a superb renovation of a derelict stone barn, perfect for exploring the superb coastline, magical valleys and the majestic mountains of the Snowdonia National Park." Keen ramblers and climbers will enjoy the close proximity of The Moelwyns, Cnicht (the Welsh Matterhorn!) and Tremadog Rocks.

With central heating and a wood burning stove, it is so warm and welcoming to return to.

In addition to the guides and maps at the cottage, the owner is an Army and Civilian Mountain Leader and happy to offer advice on rambling and walking activities. A short walk from the cottage takes you to the Glaslyn Osprey Centre where you can watch these spectacular birds raise their young.

You can also grab a snack and a coffee while waiting to take a scenic ride on the Welsh Highland and Ffestiniog narrow gauge railways. Just a mile away is the popular hostelry, Brondanw Arms (known locally as The Ring) and a village shop.

Enjoy the tranquillity, peace and nature of the cottage location while also being just a short drive from the coast and many of the area's best visitor attractions - including the Welsh Highland Railway which is only 200m away! Take a look at the goings-on at Tyn Llwyn Cornel on the Instagram page.

The large village of Penrhyndeudraeth boasts a selection of shops, pubs, a fish and chip shop, Post Office and a railway station which takes you along the Ffestiniog Railway. Just two miles away is the celebrated unique Italianate village of Portmeirion, which was the location of the TV show The Prisoner, and is surrounded by sandy beaches and captivating woodlands. The harbour town of Porthmadog is a little further along, where you can journey along the Ffestiniog Railway to the slate town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, "the town that roofed the world". To the north is the pretty village of Beddgelert, which is set around the Afon Glaslyn River and offers craft shops, pubs, tea rooms, restaurants, and an enchanting riverside walk, and it’s also located in the stunning Snowdonia National Park, from where you can spend hours admiring the beautiful scenery on foot or by bike. Penrhyndeudraeth is an ideal base for exploring the Llyn Peninsula, Snowdonia National Park and many other places in North Wales.

The owner will be renovating the outbuilding next door to Tyn Llwyn Cornel (as seen to the right of the building). Works will begin Winter 2019 and we will have a schedule of works as they proceed. Once complete the cottage will sleep 4 and will be available to rent individually or together with Tyn Llwyn Cornel for larger groups.
