We were two couples that wanted a unique and special place to holiday. We found it. Beautiful and historic, it felt like a setting from a movie. There were a lot of areas to visit in the region, including Mount Snowdon.

Rhyd-yr-Eirin is a very comfortable and well appointed cottage. The walks around the area are nice, though if there are clouds they will be hanging over the hills and mountains, so I can be raining at the house and fine at the beach.

Wonderful house

We loved staying here, the house has been done with such care and attention and is very comfortable. We particularly liked sitting by the excellent woodburning stove on the few grey evenings and walking up the hills behind. It is idyllically situated and the perfect place for a holiday.

Tranquil getaway

Rhyd-yr-Eirin is a truly special and unique place which exceeded our expectations (We really needed to switch off and get away from it all). We loved reading the history of the cottage and its renovation throughout the years, very inspiring. A holiday we’ll never forget and hope to be back in the future.

Perfect escape for some nothingness

What a fabulous location. Tucked away and really felt away from the real world. The cottage itself is very cosy and contains everything we needed. Plenty of walks from the door. Highly recommended.

Fantastic Seclusion

It was good to get away from it all in this remote secluded home. Everything we needed was here including plenty of wood for the burner which was needed to warm the living space up after we arrived. Great location for walks with dog and exploring in all directions. A unique place with only the peaceful sound of nature that I hope we will be able to visit again one day.

Remote and romantic

High above Harlech in the mountains with good walks and bike rides nearby, this place is heaven. You feel as if you have been invited to stay by the family - it is lived in, old and comfortable. A wood burning stove keeps you cosy, whatever the weather. If you want to get away from it all - this place is perfect.

Hidden gem

We loved our stay in this cosy cottage. It was very well equipped, comfy beds and a log fire, with free wood provided, for rainy days. Exquisite isolated setting with walks in every direction from the cottage and 20 minutes drive to the beautiful beach at Harlech. We recommend the delicious ice creams (and hand made chocolates) opposite the castle and the deli/grocer in the centre. Excellent communication with cottage owner. We very much hope to go there again.

This has been one of the best holidays I have ever had. The location is outstanding and beaches are the incredible. The cottage is everything you could wish for. There is no working TV as advertised but it didn't matter as we were out having fun. Our dog also had a very happy time. Please be aware though that your dog must be FULLY TRAINED around sheep and livestock.

Wonderful Location - Beautiful Cottage!

Our family of four adults all had a lovely week at this cottage which is one of the best locations and cottages we have stayed at over the last 20+ years. What stands out for me is the location. We saw one group of walkers all week, other than that we were totally remote and off-grid. Just what we wanted. We trucked off to the mountains of Snowdonia, saw beaches, ate at local pubs, and conquered castles! Shops close by, and walks in to the fells straight from the front door.. which was great having a working cocker spaniel that never stops. Would highly recommend.

Rural, rustic and really lovely

The electricity was out when we arrived due to storm Darrah but we were able to light a fire and there were torches there to help light our way. We were greeted on Sunday morning with a flask of hot water and an update on the situation. Communication was excellent and the issue was resolved by Monday and didn't affect our stay at all.
