Guest comments
Thank you so much for renting your beautiful home to us. It is clear that a lot of thought has gone into the renovations. It is one of the most well equipped cottages we have rented. As for the location, remote it is, but what a truly beautiful setting, idyllic springs to mind. So many lovely places to visit, we all, including the kids, had a magical week. We will be back next year for sure. Alex Bennett July 08
We had a lovely time at Maesywerngoch - despite the Welsh weather!The standard of accommodation was very high and we were all really pleased with the house - in fact we all thought that it was more spacious than the photos led us to believe - especially the kitchen which was a bit larger than we'd expected, which was great.The grounds were very well maintained and we enjoyed being able to wander around as well as play hide and seek and fly kites with the children.

Owner profile
Our family
About the owner
Maesywerngoch has been in our family for over 30 years. It has been a great place to take our children to enjoy fresh air and family walks.
Year purchased: 1970's
Why the owner chose a home in this location
Maesywerngoch has passed down from one generation to the next. We enjoy the remote location and beautiful views over the valley while still only a short drive to the seaside town of Aberdovey or the market town of Machynlleth.
Unique benefits of the property
Maewywerngoch has no neighbouring houses so is in an extremely quiet location with only the sounds of the waterfalls or the occasional hoot of an owl. We enjoy the many walking paths throughout the valley and picking blackberries in August.
