About this cottage rental

A beautifully renovated cottage close to the coastal path and villages of Borth y Gest and Morfa Bychan. The cottage dates from the 1700's and used to be the out kitchen to the farmhouse where the owners live.

The cottage has been lovingly restored and updated to provide a high level of comfort and style.

Steps lead down to the cottage which has a stable door. The ground floor of the cottage is open plan and comprises the kitchen and sitting area. It is small and cosy and perfect for a couple.
The cottage has a fully fitted kitchen with microwave and electric cooker. The kitchen area has a small breakfast bar and stools. The room opens out into the sitting area which has a comfy sofa, TV and small table.
The original inglenook fireplace with bread oven has been preserved and now has a wood burning stove with a supply of logs for colder evenings.
The separate bathroom has an electric shower, basin and WC.

Rising from the sitting area is an oak and glass staircase which leads up to the mezzanine bedroom which is simply furnished with a king size low bed with cotton bedlinen and feather duvet and pillows. As the bedroom is in the eaves of the cottage there is limited headroom as the ceiling is sloping.

Outside the cottage is a small garden with seating area and a fire pit. You are welcome to help yourself to logs at no charge from our log store.and a parking space for your vehicle.

Sorry no pets allowed.

There is another 2 person cottage at the property which adjoins the Farmhouse. Please contact us for availability if you wish to come with friends.

5 minutes walk from the cottage is the Welsh coastal path so you can walk to the pretty village of Borth y Gest (15 mins) which has a bistro and cafe and further along to the harbourside town of Porthmadog (30 mins). Walking in the other direction you can walk along the mile long sandy beach (Black Rock Sands) 15 mins where there is a pub, the Black Rock Beach Club and even onto the town of Cricieth with its fascinating castle (1hr).

A fantastic base for exploring the mountains of Snowdonia and the beaches of the Llyn Peninsula, other nearby attractions include Porthmadog (1.5miles) with its famous Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways, Portmeirion (4 miles) and the towns and the castles of Criccieth, Caernarfon and Harlech just a short drive away.

A perfect little hideaway with everything you could need. Really comfy bed, great shower and a lovely little spot in the garden for coffee (or something!) We didn’t need to use the car once. Close to easy footpaths and the coastal railway was a treat.

The cottage was well-equipped, quaint, well decorated and was way beyond our expectations. Unfortunately the weather was too warm for us to need the log burner (we'll need to return in winter).

The cottage is wonderful! Very comfy bed, great little kitchen area and the most relaxing atmosphere. The views from the nearby beaches (a matter of minutes walk away) are stunning, especially at sunset. You couldn't find a more perfect place to stay.

Stunning little cottage - perfect for our 3 night break. Great location with easy access to coastal path and stunning beaches from the door. Lovely and warm with everything we needed - appreciated the remote control blinds on the ceiling velux windows helping towards a good nights sleep with just the sound of the owls (and rain on the roof - it is Wales!) We hope to return

Wonderfully restored 17th century Cegin that has everything you could possibly need for a relaxed peaceful break. The coastal footpaths are a delight to explore, through woodland to stunning beaches and much more ... Other delights are not far away if you feel the need, take your time and enjoy the unspoilt.
