Outstanding location - the best we have ever been to in terms of beauty on the door step. Mountain, sea and forest all in one vista. Well equipped, clean, beautiful furnishings.... I don't want to praise more as we want a space available for us for next year!

A beautiful property in a stunning location. Well equipped (other than a hair drier). The quietness and serenity was just what was needed and even with the 'not so kind' weather, this house gave us the break we needed.

Cilynys is a wonderful cottage/cabin in an awesome location in the hills above Barmouth, remote yet easily accessible by car. Glorious views out across the estuary to the Cadair Idris range from the lounge and the covered veranda. Cilynys is very comfortable, cozy and has a kitchen with everything we needed for a fab fortnight. Many fine walks intoRead more the hills from the front door, with stunning views all around. Nearby Barmouth is a rather lovely old style seaside town, with good pubs, cafes, shops and a vast golden sandy beach. Hide

The views from the cottage on a clear day, are stunning. The cottage has been beautifully restored and furnished, with high quality linens and towels. Peace and tranquility reign, and we thoroughly enjoyed our weeks stay, even though the weather wasnt very kind to us. Its a true haven for walkers and hikers with plenty of pathways to explore.

Absolutely stunning location with fantastic views of Mawddach estuary and Cadair Idris. Walks directly from the property that has everything you need to just unpack your suitcase, take in the views and totally unwind. Panorama walk and Barmouth not far away. Wonderful place and our dog loved ii with the totally enclosed garden, ensuring we couldRead more relax knowing she was safe, but one minor thing the seating area has a steep drop that may not be suitable for small children. We spent many happy hours sitting on the veranda and would have no hesitation in returning and recommending to others. Hide
