About this cottage rental

Lounge with open fire place and bay window, dining room overlooking the garden, bathroom, modern recently fitted kitchen, master bedroom with king size bed, second bedroom with full size bunk beds. Front and rear gardens, patio area with good views, with outside dining furniture and gas barbecue. Private hot tub (seats 5), with lighting, and massage jets.

The rear garden is enclosed and terraced on two levels, and care must be taken when approaching the edges of the terraces. Distant sea views from the hot tub!

The cottage is in a designated 'Dark Skies' reserve, and the quantity and brightness of stars that can be seen whilst relaxing in the hot tub is amazing.

There are traditional family board games provided, a 1960's record player (and records!), lots of books, as well as free fast Wi-Fi, X-Box & games, family DVDs and TV.

Bryn Heulog is in the hamlet of Friog, right by an award winning beach, with the foothills of Cader Idris and the famous 'Blue Lake' behind it.

The area has fantastic walking and cycling attractions, to suit all abilities and experience. Coed-y-Brenin Forest Park Mountain Bike Centre is close by, as is the family friendly Mawddach Trail, which can include a crossing of the famous Barmouth Bridge, or a stop at the George III by the toll bridge in Penmaenpool for a pub lunch.

You can walk from the front door to the hills behind which reach to the beautiful and dramatic Cregennen Lakes, and further on to Cadair Idris itself, passing lots of local waterfalls, Victorian Slate and Gold Mines, with amazing views over Cardigan Bay.

The beach is a few minutes walk away, and is always quiet. It is sandy, and gently sloping, and perfect for families. There is always lots of opportunity for kite flying, rock-pooling, fishing, kayaking, paddling, swimming, beachcombing, sandcastle making, crabbing, or just lying down in the sun with a good book.

The narrow gauge railway at Fairbourne is a very short walk away, and is one of the famous little trains of Wales. You can catch it to 'The Point' facing Barmouth, and then catch the connecting local ferry across the estuary to get to the Victorian Seaside town. From there you can book a boat for some sea fishing, visit the theatre, the fairground, or one of the many shops and restaurants.

We received key lock and Wi-Fi information a couple of days before our trip away. The day before Eloise rang me to discuss further details, gave me all relevant information we needed and assured me that I could contact her if needed. She was really friendly, helpful and happy to assist with all small details like opening of local food places to the cottage. Upon arrival it was so easy to park, check in to the beautiful cottage. The view from the front of the property is fields with sheep which I found to be beautifully serene, it was so quiet considering it’s on a main road. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, cosy and very welcoming. Eloise was aware that we had booked the trip for my husband’s birthday which was the following day, they had left a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge which was such a lovely thoughtful surprise. The garden is beautiful but most importantly very private, loved hearing all the little birds chirping away. The hot tub was really great with such stunning views of the mountains and sea in the distance. We loved every minute of our break at this cute cottage, we would definitely go back and highly recommend this property. Thank you to you all.

Lovely Bugalow and Location would have given it Five Stars but regrettably let down by the Heating and Hot Water Services…Left uncomfortable in the Evenings and failed to provide a Bathful of Water.
