Small cottage ideal for 2, secure area for your 4 legged friend. Fixtures and fittings to a high finish. Ideal location for discovering the beautiful lynn peninsula. Beaches about 10 minutes drive away. Not much in amenities once back at the cottage but coop and chippy etc in next village.

Cottage was clean. Very well set up to good facilities. Very comfortable. It is a little off the beaten track, so you would need a car. Lots of walks. Loved it. The only thing I would recommend is a non slip mat for the bathroom.



Perfect weekend

We had an amazing time at Dowlais Cottage. On arrival Jayne was there to meet us with all the information we needed, local shops, walks etc. She also told us we had the garden at the back of the property to ourselves as the other cottage had not been rented out whilst we were there. So.out dog had the run of the garden. The cottage itself is small but well equipped. It's big enough for family of 3 as 1 double and 1 single bed in the same room. Well cared for property, very clean on arrival. And the views are stunning. Nearest pebble beach is 10 minutes by car. Lovely walks and 2 nice cafés. Will happily book again. Thank you Jayne for your hospitality.



A little gem!

The cottage is in a perfect spot to explore this beautiful and peaceful part of Wales. The owner kindly provided tea, coffee, sugar, milk and Welsh cakes which is thoughtful and most welcome. The cottage was clean and well presented. The garden was perfect for our dogs, sadly the weather didn’t allow us the chance to enjoy it more. The owner was really friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend and look to return.

Had a wonderful 3 days at Dowlais cottage, beautifully laid out, very comfortable and home from home atmosphere. The owner Jane was so lovely she left us milk, cake and coffee so kind.
Location is very good for getting about to great places. All in all great time despite the weather.

We enjoyed our stay, we felt very welcomed. The property was very clean. The bed was very uncomfortable, we did struggle with getting comfortable at night. But other than the bed we had a lovely stay. The garden was lovely and very peaceful.

I’m currently sitting on the beach, black rock sands, it’s my last day here, currently gathering my thoughts about our stay, we are boarding at Dowlais Cottage, Llanllyfni the cottage is awesome, the host Jane and her family are truly Lovely people and have made us welcome. The gardens at the rear are amazing, bonus they are all gated. So we know our spaniel is safe. There’s loads of walks for the dog too !

For the whole stay we have used our Lotus BBQ in the rear garden, not relying too much on the modern fully equipped kitchen.

There’s lots to do the closest beach is Dinas Dinlle which is only 4 miles away and best of all dog friendly and free parking for the whole day.

Better still is Black rock sands near Porthmadog 1/2 hour drive, worth every minute, or as us Brumies say Portmadog lol, its a fantastic beach you literally make one payment for parking for the whole day, then drive onto the beach and pitch up next to your car, Its sands are the best I’ve ever seen, no stones and it’s dog friendly too !

Big thank you to Jane and her mum and dad - we will be back, I’ve stayed at loads of cottages spread around the UK, this cottage is by far the way the best for price, beautiful location and best managed.
Big Big thank you x

Owner very friendly and welcoming.
Accommodations clean and tidy with everything needed for our stay.
I will say that a bigger more comfortable bed would have been nice.
Dog owners should be aware that there are very few places to walk the dogs locally if you want to exercise your dog off the lead.

We had a great stay at the cottage, Location is good, and the cottage is small but nice and has all the essentials. The private garden is great if you have dogs. It’s only a short drive to the coast and Snowdonia, so there are lots of things to do. We didn’t have any luck with the takeaways (some were closed and others didn’t take orders at that time), but there is a Co op too, so good to stock up on food.
