Description
Completely self- contained barn conversion with large garden area. A cosy and sympathetic Barn Conversion with fantastic views over the Dee Valley and the hills beyond. Set on a hillside above the River Dee in the Vale of Ederynion, the eastern gateway to Snowdonia National Park. It overlooks the stretch of the River Dee featured in Mortimer and Whitehouse "GONE FISHING" And indeed appears as the cottage on the hill in some screen shots. We also feature in the programme "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE" as part of the story of Iwan Thomas. This little cottage, comfortably furnished, has been converted from an ancient barn to a quiet and warm retreat. Well equipped, cosy, warm and welcoming. Lovely lounge with wonderful outlook over the distant mountains and amazingly quiet. the Gally kitchen is well stocked with all crocks, pots etc. Access to bedroom by spiral stairs from the lounge where from the roof light you can see for miles into the valley and the hills beyond. Laze away your days with a bottle of wine either on the sheltered veranda or tucked up by the lounge window losing yourself in the view. Maybe you prefer to put on your boots and walk the amazing hills, or go sailing on Bala Lake, or maybe white water rafting just for the fun of it. Good walking for dogs in the forest above the cottage with direct access from Tyn-Y-Fron. Our visitor book is testimony to the magic that this little cottage seems to have. We have had engagements here, honeymoons, birthdays and even first baby announcements. We can guarantee that you will want to return. We welcome well behaved dogs but prefer to know the breed before arrival. We are open all year so a quiet Christmas on a Welsh hill might be just what you need.
A waymarked footpath passes right through the 13 acres of land at Tyn-Y-Fron so dog walking is easy. We really look forward to meeting you and adding you to our list of friends we have made by letting the Barn over the years.

“Beautiful”
If you want to relax and unwind, this is the place to come. It is SO peaceful, just the sound of birds and sheep. We arrived on our wedding night and stayed for three nights. We live in North Wales and are used to amazing views but the views from the barn are stunning, just sitting out on the porch with a glass of wine was perfect. Peter and Dee we’re lovely and they left us to enjoy our time there. We walked a lot and visited Bala. The barn itself is lovely, ideal for a couple. We will definitely be back again.

“Great Solitude and views”
We went for rest and solitude and were delighted with the cottage. It was comfortable , remote and had a great day that we allowed to visit. We also left the gates open for the geese. Although the cottage was clean and very comfortable,it could do with updating.

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind words. As for updating, well it wouldn't be quite the character cottage that it is if we did too much of that. It does have all the modern amenities you could wish for but we intend to keep the furnishing in the period that is suitable for the cottage..
