“What a gem,the photos really don’t do it justice the cottage is fitted out to a really high standard and the location overlooking the lake is breathtaking.”

To be able to sit up in bed in the morning with a cup of tea looking out to the lake and the only sounds you can hear is bird song and sheep,not a single man made sound it must be like being on a remote island. We will be back!

“Stunning cottage set in the most spectacular location; the photographs on the web site don't do it justice.”

The cottage was immaculate, well equipped and cosy and warm. The beautiful woodwork in the cottage is first class. The picnic benches outside, overlooking the lake, are a perfect place to sit with a cuppa or glass of wine, so very quiet, all you can hear are the birds. Plenty of local walks and stunning drives to enjoy whilst en route to further afield destinations. We very much appreciated the kind welcoming gift of wine and welsh cakes and the essentials needed for a cuppa on arrival. We had a wonderful, relaxing holiday and hope to return again, bringing other family members. Cannot recommend highly enough! The Beese family.

“Beautiful cottage set in the most magical location - the views from all rooms of the cottage were incredible.”

Great facilities - the washing machine and tumble dryer and downstairs wet room was ideal after wet and muddy walks in the area and for sorting a very muddy cockapoo! Lots to do in the area I would recommend a visit to Bala lake and Llangollen. Only thing that would of been useful was a clothes airer and maybe something on the stairs - they are wooden and lovely but very slippery especially with the turn. We will definitely be back and will be recommending the cottages to friends and family :) thankyou for a lovely stay.

“An absolutely fantastic cottage at a very reasonable price.”

Recently renovated and tastefully decorated by the very friendly owners who live on site and whose son is responsible for the skillfull carpentry and beautiful woodwork in all three cottages. We were informed by the village shopkeeper it’s the only property overlooking Lake Vyrnwy other than the 4star Vyrnwy Hotel. The cottage is well equipped with everything you could possibly need on holiday. The views from all of the rooms are stunning (bathrooms excluded of course)! It rained just about every day we were there but it only added to the enchantment of the area. Our two dogs (A French Bulldog & Cavalier King Charles) loved it there plus their walks down the drive to the lakeside. The drive to nearby Bala is stunning with views over the local hills/mountains. We went out exploring everyday reaching as far as Llandudno on occasion but always returned to lovely warm and welcoming cottage. We are both in our 70’s and Having recently moved house and enduring all the stress involved in such a move we returned home feeling rested, refreshed and invigorated. We loved it so much we’ve already booked another week next March. Barry & Megan Myfanwy Cook

“We stayed at the cottage over Christmas and arrived to find some tasteful decorations, a Christmas card from the owners and some handmade mince pies which we found really lovely.”

The cottage was immaculate inside and when we woke the first morning we were taken aback by the views. We had a super cosy stay and enjoyed the surrounding areas too. We went for walks and to little villages recommended and loved coming back to the cottage at the end of the day. There was attention to detail and everything supplied that we would need on our break. Would highly recommend and will hopefully be back to stay again! Thanks so much, the Cherone family.

“We had such a lovely long weekend here.”

Thank you to the owners - the views and location of this cottage is spectacular and such a lovely place to be in autumn. Total tranquility away from it all. The only suggestions we have is is we couldn't find a chopping board or any egg cups also a maiden would be useful. But minor things ! It's a fair drive to a pub (which we knew) and planned to self cater for the majority of our stay. Thank you again for a blissful weekend ! We would love to come back.

“Beautifully done cottage in a beautiful setting.”

Well equipped for all holiday needs. It’s great to have towels provided and the welcome goodies are a very nice and well appreciated touch. Set in a very beautiful place, with all you need to have a break, with access to some lovely local sights. Would totally recommend. Thank you!

“Lovely stay with 2 kids and a dog.”

House was great. Everything was clean and had everything you need. Beautiful views and a walk down to the lake is a few mins away. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and Welsh cakes, which was a lovely touch. Would definitely recommend!

“Property was better than advertised, home from home, everything you needed and more.”

Spotlessly clean, views of mountains and. Lake were very impressive. Interior top finish. Bottle of wine left in fridge was a welcoming suprise. Would highly recommend.

“Lots of interesting things to see around and about the lake.”

Owners friendly. Cottage well laid out. Brilliant view of the lake from the bedrooms. Go to Artisans - you won't leave hungry or without chatting to someone. Loved it and hope to come back soon.

“One or 2 of the double bed slats was loose and made a loud creak every time one of us got up during the night, which woke up the other one!”

Needs fixing. In an ideal world the bed could be larger as there is plenty of space in the room (we are small people but others are not so). The bedside tables could be larger to accommodate people's night time things: medication, books, eye masks, water etc. It would have been better to have a wall mirror in the bathroom and a full-length mirror in the bedroom. Also there was no hand soap in the downstairs bathroom, which we regard as essential. The main TV could be larger and there should be obvious instructions as to where the router is for wifi. We didn't know it was there for a whole day until we discovered it behind a curtain! They might need to put a blind at the kitchen window as the curtains might get wet/stained. The kitchen needs to be better stocked - ie bigger pans, a colander etc. A kitchen bin just for recyclables would encourage people to recycle more. The newness of everything and level of workmanship that's gone into the house and the world-class views of course well make up for these details, but it's often the details that matter. Our hostess was friendly and very kindly allowed us to charge our car a couple of times. We left her cash to cover for this extra electricity use. We would love to go back one day - we had a very relaxing break.

“PROPERTY WAS CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE.”

STUNNING VIEWS AND BEAUTIFUL WALKS HAD AN AMAZING STAY. WINE, WELSH CAKES AND HOME MADE SOAP WAS A LOVELY TOUCH AND GRATEFULLY RECEIVED. WILL STAY AGAIN SOON I HOPE!

“Beautiful cottage with amazing views.”

Owners are lovely and very helpful. I would highly recommend this property.

- Rebecca, August 2023
Gianna August 2023

“Really lovely place, great views and situation, so private which we really enjoyed.”

One thing I would suggest is as the middle cottage is for four people a bigger saucepan would be useful as it wasn’t big enough to cook for four of us! However everything else was fab - we had a great time.

- Gianna, August 2023
Michael August 2023

“This is a beautiful place to stay.”

The owners were very attentive and had gone the extra mile to ensure our stay was memorable. On the day of arrival they had left all the essentials so we could have a cuppa straight away. They also left a bottle of wine and some Welsh cakes, which was a lovely touch. The property itself overlooks the lake which is very restful and the inside of the property was to a very high standard. We will definitely look to return in the future.

The property

Gazing out upon the idyllic Lake Vyrnwy in Powys, the wonderful, two-bedroom holiday cottage of Llety Dewi lies waiting.

A stone-built barn conversion, with off-road parking for one car, a gravelled outdoor seating space with breath-taking lake views, and an array of bespoke, hand-crafted interiors with characterful wooden features throughout, this lovely home welcomes a family or group of sharing friends, along with their two well-behaved dogs, for a memorable getaway to the magnificent Welsh countryside.

Take a moment to soak in your brilliant new surroundings before you make yourself at home in your delightful new lodgings, where you and your loved ones can get to work conjuring up a tasty, home-cooked meal over a glass of wine in the fully-equipped, galley-style kitchen.

Gather around the dining table to savour your dinners, before you kick back and relax in the living/dining room to enjoy a film on the wall-mounted Smart TV, the immaculate space kept warm and toasty by a centrepiece electric stove embedded into a tasteful brick fireplace.

When your eyes grow tired, be sure to refresh with a shower in one of the three bathrooms set across two floors, before you hunker down for a well-earned slumber in either a plush double or inviting twin bedroom, both of which are accompanied by their very own en-suites as well as windows that stare out to the outstanding countryside.

Book the ultimate escape to Wales by choosing Llety Dewi.

About the location

LAKE VYRNWY

Bala 13 miles.

This wonderful beauty spot is referred to as “a lake for all seasons”. It is situated just south of Snowdonia between the Cambrian Mountains and the Berwyn range. It was originally a Victorian man-made reservoir with a stone-built damn built in the 1880’s being the very first of its kind. Today, this beautiful and popular retreat is a National Nature Reserve, SSSI and a renowned RSPB reserve boasting a huge variety of birds and wildlife. The lake has a circumference of 11 miles which is all surrounded by wonderful scenic countryside including the 6000 acre Dyfnant Forest which is perfect for exhilarating walks, bike rides, bird watching or simply relaxing while enjoying a picnic. The local village of Llanwddyn is very small and pleasant and provides a pub, cafes, RSPB shop and craft and produce outlets. From this lovely location you can tour all of Mid Wales, the magnificent Snowdonia National Park, Powis Castle and gardens and delightful Shropshire. This is a perfect year-round location.
