Stunning location in a beautiful quiet area
If you are looking for a peaceful location, a very short walk from the magnificent beach and surrounded by beautiful scenery then I would highly recommend this property.We stayed as a family and the bedrooms are of a large size to accommodate. The terraced garden and views were wonderful. Parking was easy. Close to local amenities, a shop in Fairbourne selling your essentials. A great base for exploring this area of Welsh coastline and Snowdonia. A wonderful area which I fell in love with all over again. Thank you.

Lovely countryside feeling
Had a really good experience, the cottage is perfect for 2 couples, or a group of 6 even. Very near the beach, and in a quiet, peaceful location

Family Traditional Welsh Cottage Holiday
Amazing stay. Excellent communication from the landlord. The photos do not give justice to this lovely cottage. Kitchen was very well equipped. The bedrooms were clean and cosy ready for a good night rest. The walking distance to the beach was a Hughe benefit and enabled us to walk the dogs there every day.

Why they chose this property

Mawddach Cottage has been much loved by members of our family for 2 generations. Since taking ownership from our parents in 2011 we have been renovating it in stages while trying to preserve the charm of the original miner's cottage. We are very proud of what has been achieved, from a new slate roof to a complete reworking of the layout upstairs. It is a very cosy and comfortable place for a holiday and we hope to keep this for the next generation of our family to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

Mawddach Cottage is well situated, within 3 minutes walk to the beach, Fairbourne or the mountains and only a short car ride away from the regional towns of Dolgellau, Towyn and Barmouth. This is a heritage property, built originally for a mining family. The cottage is built into the hillside of of a mountain, Is Craic. We have storage heaters and a wood burner as heating. It is a good idea to use the wood burner if you would like the cottage to be toasty and warm!
