    “Very lovely little cottage in a beautiful, and often overlooked part of north Wales.”

    Llandderfel is a pretty village with a pub a 15~ min walk away; no shop, but Y Bala (Coop, Spar, etc) is a pleasant 10 min drive away. Handy, central location for trips out to Llangollen, Llyn Efyrnwy, Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall (taller than Niagara!) and, of course Y Bala and Llyn Tegid. The cottage itself is very comfortable and well appointed, with tea, coffee, milk and butter provided along with a generous welcome pack. Two pleasant sitting rooms and a lovely balcony with seating with views ...

The small rural village of Llandrillo is situated between the Snowdonia National Park and the Berwyn Mountain range and offers superb walking and cycling trails and a traditional village pub. The bustling market town of Bala is just 8 miles away, located at the head of Llyn Tegid, Bala’s famous lake. Renowned as a centre for great watersports including fishing, sailing, canoeing and windsurfing, Bala is also the headquarters of the narrow gauge Bala Lake Railway. The town has a range of interesting shops, inns and restaurants, and an historical Town Walk. An ideal location for touring all North and Mid Wales including the stunning Cambrian Bay Coast with the six-mile long Harlech beach, overlooked by its majestic medieval castle. With Llangollen nearby, a beautiful town offering stunning scenery, horse-drawn barges along the River Dee and NT properties, this is a truly wonderful part of Wales catering for all interests.
