The cottage provided everything we wanted. It was remote and very peaceful, but the games barn was a great facility for the boys to spend time together.We had a great time, even the rain couldn't dampen our enjoyment

A lovely place to stay, Loved watching the lambs from the house and in the hot tub. Was great to be so private. My boys enjoyed the games room , hot tub and the xbox. It was a lovely place to relax after a day of hiking and exploring .

Bryn Melyn was a fabulous stay, four children of teenage and younger ages were all entertained by the games room and hot tub, really clean, lovely place, gorgeous views, perfect for a relaxing stay, or with kids! The cake and eggs were a lovely touch!
