Description

STS Grade 3
Superb location between Shell Island and the village of Llanbedr. Close to sandy beaches and Snowdonia mountains, 3ml south of Harlech, in mellow surroundings in the Snowdonia National Park. The farmhouse has thick stone walls, undulating floors and windows of the period that enjoys a secluded rural setting with its own sunny garden enclosed by a traditional stone wall. Ideal for a larger family or for two families sharing. With central heating it offers an excellent base for enjoying Snowdonia, especially the Roman Steps and Rhinogau mountains during any season. Easy 15 minute walk along the river to the pretty village of Llanbedr, Shell Island (access at low tide), beaches and the scenic Cambrian Coast railway, with the 'Wales Coastal Path' running past the front door. Ideal location for a family holiday with plenty of attractions and activities in the area. Barmouth harbour 7ml. Harlech castle and beach 3ml. Shop/Inn less than a mile.

MM (April 2024): 5 STARS
"Lovely family holiday. We were a family of 9 spending a very pleasant week in the old farmhouse. Everything we needed was provided and the house felt comfortable and relaxing. The railway station was on our doorstep when we wanted a break from driving and there were lovely walks in the area"
LT (AUGUST 2023): 5 STARS "Magical stay in farmhouse - 9 family/ friends and a dog. We loved the house. Comfortable, homely and welcoming. Plenty of space for our group who varied in age. We had wonderful dinners at the top of the garden watching the sunset and the 8 year old enjoyed playing in the garden. Very convenient for the station, easy walk in to Llanbedr to shop and pubs. Good base for cycle rides and walks, trips to Harlech and Barmouth"
MS (June 2023): 4.5 STARS "Excellent farmhouse holiday. The farmhouse and its owners (local) were all excellent. Well-equipped, spotlessly clean and perfect location for us. The administration and organisation of booking and payment arrangements by STS were poor with the same excuse being used repetitively and having to be progress-chased by me, the customer.​" Following the Booking being placed, and before any payments being received, we had to change our Booking Software System - this caused some unexpected problems with some Bookings not getting the confirmation of Bookings. This particular problem cannot recur again. We apologise for the inconvenience it has caused resulting in the Customer having to ring us for the e-mail confirmations.
SD (August 2022): 5 STARS "Excellent stay. Comfortable house in good location. Wonderful location and perfect for our party of 10. We enjoyed our stay at Talwrn Bach which was clean, comfortable and excellent value for money. Good location for Harlech, Barmouth, Snowdon and beaches."
JR (June 2022): 5 STARS "We enjoyed a week with our family in this spacious, comfortable and clean farmhouse.
