“The cottage was so beautiful in its interior and is set in stunning surroundings as well.”

Quiet and yet very near the town of Porthmadog. The beaches are near as are the mountains. One of the prettiest cottages I ever rented❣️

“IIt was such a beautiful cottage set in beautiful surroundings even storm Dennis didn’t spoil our holiday, it just added to the excitement.”

Stunning sea views one side and breathtaking mountain views the other. The cottage was so warm and comfortable exceptionally clean and well cared for. Some beautiful walks with our dogs will definitely be coming back.

“Lovely peaceful location in a superbly converted old Welsh farmhouse.”
Mrs Brunton-davies July 2019

“Great farmhouse in excellent location literally 5mins from the beach.”

Beautiful setting and couldn’t fault the house at all. In true old farmhouse style the floors upstairs are uneven in places but the house has been fitted out well. Only downside was there was no parasol for the table and chairs outside which meant limited use of the table during the hottest days of the year so far. Overall fantastic secluded location, amazing views and a great family holiday.

“We already had high hopes for this property from both the description and the photos, but the reality far exceeded our expectations.”

Set in a secluded spot in stunning countryside, everything from Ty Mawr's location to the sympathetic way the property has been renovated, made this the perfect holiday destination. The understated decor, attention to detail and facilities are first rate. From the moment you turn into the driveway and see this sturdy house nestled on the flanks of picturesque Moel y Guest, you feel at home. With nothing but the sound of swallows, bees, grasshoppers, and the occasional bleating and mooing from the sheep and cows on the neighbouring farm to break the silence, this is the perfect 'get away from it all' spot. We revelled in watching the swallows swoop and dive as we ate outside in the evening sunshine, felt pampered in the morning as our feet were warmed by the underfloor heating, and slept better than we have done in years. Surrounded by great walking country - we strolled over to Criccieth one night and along Black Rock Sands to Porthmadog on another- Ty Mawr is ideally located for days out in Snowdonia. Portmeirion is just a short drive away, and we went on both the Welsh Highland Railway to Caernarfon and the Ffestiniog Railway to Blaenau Ffestiniog from Porthmadog. We had intended to spend a day in Anglesey, but with so much to see and do on our doorstep, we sadly never made it. A week wasn't enough to explore a part of the UK we had never ventured into, or to enjoy staying in such an historic and luxurious holiday property. A good excuse to come back next year!

“The holiday exceeded our expectations in many ways in terms of location, size of property, warmth (underfloor heating) and comfort (especially beds).”

Directions to property were ok although could be improved as challenging to find (in particular at night-time) on initial arrival plus showers in both bathrooms struggled with poor water pressure although still warm and usable. We would all return to the same property and location again. Thank you.

“Good response from caretaker Jon, when I needed some help (with a flat tyre & an item left at the cottage)”

“A lovely old farmhouse that has been beautifully restored and renovated.”

A peaceful setting and great that they accept dogs.

“The cottage was in a lovely peaceful location and had been very tastefully refurbished.”

Everything we needed was provided. Our only comment would be that we would have far preferred the garden furniture to be in the garden.
Lynne Wilkinson

“The photos don’t do justice to this beautiful tastefully decorated cottage that has been sympathetically been restored with love, care and attention to detail, design and the cottage’s most interesting history.”

As for the location - You won’t be disappointed.

Ty Mawr Porthmadog is an utterly stunning cottage in a fab location and we're so happy that you had such a brilliant holiday there. We hope to welcome you back again in 2018! Owner relations

“Ty Mawr was great lots of spacious rooms, the children played hide & seek.”

The cottage had everything we needed, was nice & cosy .it was great being so near black rock beach we all loved it there. It is not far from the town. The farm was nice for the children as there was lots of new born lambs & alpacas to watch.

“Lovely house set in a beautiful place with great views and stunning night skies.”

Evenings spent by a roaring log fire with great underfloor heating giving toasty toes throughout our stay. A view of Black Rock sands which must be one of the best beaches in the country.

The property

Ty Mawr, 200 years old, stands in a glorious, ancient landscape with bronze age hut circles, a Neolithic Burial Chamber and views to the beach at Black Rock Sands.

In medieval times, jousting tournaments were held just above the house. "This delightful house sits comfortably in the peaceful landscape looking towards the beach at Black Rock Sands, between Criccieth and Porthmadog." After three generations of farming the tenancy reverted back to the owner, who with her architect husband have transformed Ty Mawr to the glorious house it is today.

It is such a splendid house that has been put together with such care and attention to detail. The farm continues to flourish with sheep cattle and alpaca (protecting the sheep from Mr Fox) grazing the gentle slopes from Moel y Guest down to the sea.

Black Rock Sands is just down the road.

Just a short drive away are the beautiful sea side towns of Criccieth and Porthmadog.

From here you can easily explore the Italian village of Portmeirion, the Welsh Highland Railway, as well as castles, beaches and a number of great restaurants and cafes.

About the location

PORTHMADOG

Harlech 5 miles; Caernarfon 19 miles.

The bustling harbour town of Porthmadog lies on the Glaslyn Estuary and enjoys a stunning setting. The gateway to the Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog is full of individual shops and restaurants, and home to the Ffestiniog Railway, where you can travel by steam through spectacular Snowdonia scenery, to Blaenau Ffestiniog. The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk or drive from the town. The well known and unique Italianate village of Portmeirion is just down the coast. Situated on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula, Portmeirion, famous as the location of the TV show The Prisoner and the final episode of Cold Feet, is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and woodlands. The area also boasts castles at Criccieth and Harlech, and superb unspoilt beaches such as Black Rock Sands, where the sands stretch as far as the eye can see. An ideal location for the attractions of Snowdonia and the The Lleyn Peninsula.

We respectfully ask that you do not use any of the furniture or cushions, rugs etc. for your dog.
