A lovely place for a family get together. A good place to relax. The kitchen was great for family meals. The oven helped me produce an early Christmas celebration. Had a good time.

We had a wonderful weekend in Y Dderwen. It was very clean and had everything you could need. The location is perfect for exploring and visiting other places and the views from the house are stunning! It was very dog friendly too.

A very comfortable and spacious cottage in the middle of rural Wales. The cottage was clean and warm and had everything we needed, including a well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, good WiFi and tv. Views of the fields and hills were beautiful. Only one minor gripe; as I have a small car, had to be careful of the potholes in the track leading up to the cottage (the owners warned me about them beforehand, thankfully). Apart from that, everything was perfect for a relaxing break!
