The modern family bathroom is also located upstairs. Outside, the impressive garden boasts yet more incredible views including fabulous views of the mountains behind the property.

    Fron Cottage is a beautiful traditional cottage in a stunning rural location. It felt like home from the moment that we arrived.

  • Confirmed Guest

    We have just visited again! We wrote quite a detailed review in September 2023 and will not repeat it - a great place to stay if you are looking for somewhere fairly remote and beautiful with great reviews and plenty of walks nearby - well equipped with a very helpful housekeeper.
