“This was our third visit to Ty Mawr and thoroughly enjoyed our stay , we look forward to booking again next year .”

- Mrs Kennerley, September 2020
Thomas September 2020

“Everything was perfect.”

Surrounding area v quiet but just a shirt drive into town . Beautifully appointed house. No problems whatsoever. The house is even more gorgeous than the pictures. We will book again.

Miss Drowley August 2020

“Ty Mawr is a beautiful house with views from every window.”

The pictures on the website don’t do it justice. From booking the holiday to the clear instructions on finding the cottage the process could not have been easier. And when you arrive the cottage has everything. We enjoyed a wonderful week in this cottage where all you can hear is the birds and sheep. Very peaceful

“We had expected towels, tea towels and some toilet rolls at property, but there were none.”

Some cushions for sofas would have been good too, but washing covers each week could be too much. However, it should be possible to wash towels for new guests each week and we had only been told to bring those needed for beach. We had arranged with you to bring our own pillows and did so, but these were at the property, so communication broke down somewhere along the line. At property, recycling guidance was years out of date and more materials are taken than listed in welcome guide. Council website has a simle guide at https://www.gwynedd.llyw.cymru/en/Residents/Bins-and-recycling/What-goes-into-the-bin/What-goes-into-the-bin.aspx - also a one-page PDF guide that can be downloaded and printed. It would be good if a food bin was provided, as collected by the council. Overall, property and holiday was very good.

“Ty Mawr is a lovely property in a truly peaceful setting.”

The house is finished to a high standard and is comfortable and stylish inside. The beds are comfortable. We were lucky enough to have sunny days and spent long evenings in the garden with just the sheep in the field next door for company. There are lots of walks and Blackrock Sands beach is just down the road. We think this wonderful beach is spoilt by people being allowed to their drive cars onto the beach, so we walked an extra 15 minutes over the hill to Criccieth where the beach is quiet and can be enjoyed in its natural setting.

“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❣️

Miss Lacey February 2020

“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.

“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.

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.

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.
