The cottage itself is cosy and warm and feels loved. The owners made us very welcome leaving us a welcome gift and card - a very personal touch. The basket of logs was much appreciated and we used the log burner all week, there are lots of throws to keep you warm and cosy if you are in. It was a real pleasure opening the curtains in the morning on one side to Manod Mawr and from the kitchen you look out onto the Moelwyns. Ffestiniog itself has so much to explore - Cwm Cynfal waterfalls were breathtaking and only a short walk away. Llyn y Cefn behind the house on the hill was literally accessed by public path behind the house. We didnât have to get in the car much. As a hill runner and walker the area was very exciting to explore - with Manod Mawr not far away reached by rocky valleys and bluffs, Castell y Bryn fort, lakes..magical. As a climber the area has loads to explore and have fun in when the weather is good. We will definately be back - diolch yn fawr iawn x

We had the most comfortable stay. Although the weather wasn't on our side Bryn Tirion made the perfect base for exploring Eryri and all it has to offer. The log burner was just the icing on the cake! 5* all round. We will be back!
