“Lovely cottage in a gorgeous area.”

We had access to the grounds and lake which was perfect for morning stroll with our dog. Owners on site were very helpful..

“Lovely cottage and grounds with lake.”

Very clean and comfortable. We average three self catering holidays a year in the UK, and we rate the Little Coach House as one of the best we have stayed in. The location is exceptional.

“We received a very warm welcome from the owners despite the fact we had to change our travel plans.”

The property is very well equipped and benefits from a private, quite large, beautiful patio area with table and seating, very useful as we had a dog with us. The coach house is cosy downstairs and has a spacious bedroom/ dressing area with TV. There are lovely landscaped garden views from every window. The gardens have various seating areas you can use and a summer house which contained DVDs and board games to borrow. There is a pleasant walk to a private lake which also has seating areas and sun lounges; there are boats you can use but we didn't! It is a pity that due to live stock our dog had to be on a lead but we quite understood. Located within 15 minutes drive of a very dog friendly beach and close to many Welsh beauty spots we are happy to recommend this lovely holiday property and would return.

“This was our second visit to The Little Coachouse.”

,and we were not disappointed. In fact we have already booked next year 's visit. The cottage has everything you need with beautiful well kept gardens. The owners really take pride in their cottages..Tyddyn Mawr is centrally placed - only a few miles from Portmadog and Cricieth and many more places of interest. I can highly recommend to anyone seeking a comfotable, relaxing holiday.

“We spent a very enjoyable week at this delightful property.”

Set in a beautiful location it was always a joy to return to the Little Coach House after days out exploring this area of North Wales. Karen was very helpful and was available to provide any assistance if required. The gardens and lakeside were a superb place for relaxing walks and it was nice to see the local wildlife from our windows. The cottage location is excellent for visits in all directions and nearby Porthmadog has all the shops you will need. We would have no hesitation in returning to this lovely property.

“A wonderful week at the Little Coach House!”

This cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing week, easy to self cater, and is on the doorstep of many excellent locations and walks in Snowdonia. Karen was extremely welcoming and very helpful with local recommendations. We felt extremely covid secure as the cottage was extra clean and easy to keep social distancing in the large grounds of the property. In particular, we loved the well equipped kitchen, including the nespresso machine, and comfortable bed. Great locations of Criccieth and Beddgelert nearby, as well as easy access via A roads to Snowdon and its surrounding walks. We will definitely be back for another gorgeous stay at Tyddyn Mawr!

Met on arrival by Karen who explained everything we needed to know and we then settled down to our enjoyable week. The boating lake is a lovely place to walk round with our dog in the morning and later on it was only a short drive to Black Rock Sands which is also a lovely walk.

The property

One of two gorgeous holiday cottages set within the tranquil grounds of Tyddyn Mawr House nestled in the beautiful Welsh countryside.

There are 14 acres of land to explore which include attractive well-maintained gardens with seating areas tucked around every corner and a delightful summer house stocked with a library books and DVDs.

Explore further and with views across the valley you’ll find the private lake, perfect for a spot of fishing and a picnic and keep an eye out for the resident geese and Soay sheep. "What an enchanting place.

Peace, quiet and fresh air await you!" The Little Coach House is a wonderfully romantic cottage, with ample space and a private courtyard garden.

Cosy, comfortable furnishings, bold French pieces and a traditional dressing room give this cottage a real touch of luxury!

You could easily spend a break here without ever needing to leave the grounds, but if a day’s exploration is on the cards you have the historic town of Criccieth with its castle and beaches, the shops and heritage railway of Porthmadog and the Snowdonia National Park all just a short drive away. If you need a little extra space, The Honey Pot is also available in the grounds sleeping a further four.
