Bryn Eglwys Cottage Reviews

Had a lovely stay at Bryn Eglwys Cottage. Beautiful property, nicely furnished with everything you could need. Log fired hot tub was lovely, star watching in complete peace and quiet. Thank you for the welcome basket, much appreciated. Had a lovely day on the beach at Aberdovey and would highly recommend The Penhalig Arms Hotel. Nice meal at the local indian, Bay of Bengal in Tywyn. Would definitely recommend this property, a lovely base to see this part of Wales.
The owners are very welcoming and friendly and incredibly helpful, the cottage and scenery are absolutely stunning. Nice walking area to take the dog
Beautiful place! , we spend a week away every December to remember our daughter, this year we chose to stay here. Such a lovely place, was absolutely spotless! Was nice and cosy with a log burner, perfect for this time of year. It even had decent Internet signal what it's a bonus when you have a child to keep entertained plus the views were also beautiful. We shall definitely be back in the future!
Myself, my husband, our baby, my sister, her partner and our dog Rusty, all stayed here for new year 20242025 and it was fab! ! The cottage had everything we needed, gorgeous countryside views sheep right next to the cottage on the mornings comfortable beds, good wifi and the owners were so lovely people. Id definately stay here again! Thanks for having us
Carole
We had a wonderful stay at Bryn Elgwys cottage. The owners Karen and Rhys were amazing hosts. The wood burning hot tub was a treat. Although the first set up does take a while but after that it took about 30 to 45 minutes to warm. The views are amazing too. But the best thing was the WiFi never have we been anywhere before that had WiFi as fast as this!!! My husband was so impressed. To be fair you could definitely work from there anytime. Even in the hot tub too!! We will definitely be back. Thank you again for such a fantastic relaxing week. Carole and Wolf

Elsbeth
We had an amazing time in Bryn Eglwys Cottage, the cottage setting is absolutely stunning. The cottage itself is kept to an high standard and just so beautiful. We loved the hot tub, I don't think I've ever seen so many stars in the sky. The log burner was lovely for a cosy relaxing night too. Honestly there is nothing negative to say, our stay was perfect. The owners are so lovely, they can't do enough to help you, which really is a massive bonus to any stay. The little welcome hamper was such a nice touch as well. We will definitely be back.
Bridget
The accommodation is stunning and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It was wonderful to be able to sit and contemplate the wonderful views of the mountains and surrounding scenery especially the cows and sheep. Wonderful and so peaceful.
Beautiful cottage, impressively rebuilt with quality materials, it was very warm and well insulated. The WiFi was very good. We met the owner who was very friendly and helpful and left us a lovely welcome basket. We would definitely recommend this cottage
Nicholas
Lovely cottage and fantastic location. Will stay again when in the area hopefully.
Thanks to you both for a lovely stay, we love both places but this one was amazing. Great location, perfect surroundings, lovely hosts. Cannot be faulted.
This cottage is one of the most wonderful places in Wales that we've ever stayed in! In a small area of the countryside, but close to beach towns and attractions, it was definitely in the right place. The facilities were what wowed us the most, with the quality of the bedrooms, the living room, and the kitchen area. For the three of us plus our dog, this was the perfect size for us. We only stayed for three nights, but wished we stayed longer! We definitely recommend this place to others looking for a clean and comfortable place to stay whilst in Wales, with so much to do in the area.
Immaculate cottage with everything we needed. Stunning views. Quiet and peaceful. Great location for walking and the beach.
Terence

Beautiful accommodation in a beautiful location. Highly recommend. Everything was of excellent quality with an attention to detail. Will definitely be returning.
Lovely place to stay and very lovely people. Just the place to relax for holidays.

Lovely cottage, tastefully decorated and well equipped. The views are stunning and plenty of walks for the dogs. It had everything we needed for a lovely relaxing stay with comfy bed too. The welcome pack was appreciated and the location is excellent as a base to explore the area. Would have loved the log burner but the weather was to mild, so maybe on our next visit. Thank you
Richard
The cottage was perfect for our new year break. It had everything we needed for a lovely stay, the Xmas decorations were an added bonus. The welcome pack was much appreciated. The facilities were everything we would need and the cottage is very tastefully decorated and modern internally, the views are stunning, and the location is excellent to explore locally. We also loved the log burner. Thank you
Thank you so much for your hospitality. The cottage was perfect. We were so relaxed and just enjoyed some quality family time, fun and food. You had thought of everything including a wonderful Christmas welcome. The location was ideal for long walks in the hills or clear the cobwebs out on the beach. It was cosy, warm and someways better than home, all the creature comforts with stunning views. A lovely week that we will remember forever, thankyou
