Mike and I would love to welcome you to stay in our beautiful Snowdonia cottage. We bought the cottage a couple of years ago, and have enjoyed decorating/refurbishing the apartment to a high standard. The rooms are very comfortable and cosy. We both love Wales and when the opportunity came for us to buy Yr Hen Farcdy, we didn't hesitate! We both have a love of motor cycles and music. Mike is a former landscape gardener who is looking forward to maintaining our beautiful garden. I previously worked at a wonderful dental practice where I loved meeting and caring for the patients. We are both very excited about our new venture and absolutely love our new home, which we can't wait to share with our guests.

Yr Hen Farcdy is a great base for exploring the beaches, castles and mountains of this beautiful part of Wales, on the edge of the Llyn Peninsula. We are located just outside Talsarnau, inbetween Harlech and Porthmadog. There is a footpath from the cottage's doorstep leading to a wide variety of walks. We are approx 10 miles form the Antur Stiniog Downhill Trails and 15 miles from the Coed Y Brenin mountain bike centre. The local Ei Steddfa Fishery meets the needs of all ages, having a trout and family fishing lake. There is also sea fishing at Barmouth, Borth-Y-Gest and Criccieth. The castle towns of Harlech, Caernarfon and Criccieth are within 10-35 miles drive. The harbour town of Porthmadog is a 10 mins drive away with many amenities including the popular Black Rock Sands. The beautiful, romantic 'Italian Village'- Portmeirion is only a 5 mins drive away and is well worth a visit during your stay here. Snowdonia has some of the best and varied rock climbing in the world, including the nearby Tremadog crags. Bird watchers will also love it here with many species visiting our garden on a daily basis. Even if you just need to unwind, relax, read a book you will find a haven here.
