Tyn y Maen is a cosy little bungalow, not luxurious but comfortable and quiet. Great for dogs as secure garden although no local walks. Very hot when we were there so the owner was happy for us to leave our 2 dogs in the bungalow when we went out.

We had a fantastic stay at the cottage.The location and views are stunning and the pictures dont do justice with regards to the lovely big garden which is fully enclosed for dogs.The cottage was clean and well kept and was great value for money.It had everything needed and all of the beds were really comfortable so had a great night's sleep.Would definitely book this cottage again.
