We had a lovely time at Y Dderwen.The accommodation was clean, extremely well equipped with pots, pans, plates etc. The barn it's self has been beautifully converted, with lots of it's history on show.If you are looking for peace and quiet, surrounded by rolling hills and sheep, this is the place for you!Highly likely we will be going back for more of the same.

Beautiful place to stay, very quiet, well equipped and comfortable. View from any window is astonishing. Plenty of places you can visit nearby. Locals very friendly and helpful. Very relaxing place to stay, just what we needed after a few weeks of stress life

This is a lovely, well equipped and very comfortable cottage. The interior design was perfect to give that homely feel yet elegant touch. The views from the garden were picturesque and the space inside was ample with plenty of seating a kitchen that was large and had everything you needed. The host was helpful and location is ideal for visiting some of the most beautiful places in Wales. I definitely recommend this place for families as well as small groups.
