Ynys Pandy self catering holiday cottage

Welcome to Ynys Pandy, our self catering holiday cottage, nestling in acres of unspoilt peace, overseen by a huge sky with mountains at the front door and a distant horizon towards the sea at the back. The pace of life here is slow – be busy doing nothing or be nothing but busy. We are only 4 miles from the sea and less than a minute's walk to Snowdonia National Park and nowhere seems more than a half hour ride away! The castles of Criccieth, Caernarfon and Harlech, countless deserted coves and the vastness of Blackrock Beach or the joy and mystery of Portmeirion and N^o6 Festival. So many outdoor adventure activities, the iconic Welsh chapel, theatres and cinemas. World famous narrow gauge railways (3 including the one up Snowdon) and everywhere, the beauty of the Welsh landscape, language and culture.

Guests who have stayed in our self catering holiday home here, overlooking Snowdonia National Park tell us it is a special place and we invite you to experience the sense of place and space for yourselves. Ynys Pandy is a farm with the traditional 19th century welsh farmhouse and it's outbuildings surrounded by 35 acres of fields, grazed by rare breed sheep and horses. It sits at the end of a 200 yard driveway which is accessed from an un-named and very quiet country road. It's our family home and we now offer Ynys, the original 4 bedroomed farmhouse for self catering holidays.

We live in the annexe attached to the farmhouse and our daughter and her family (two of our grandchildren) live in the old converted workshop nearby (Ysgubor), so there is always someone close by should you need us but never too close to be intrusive.

Ynys Pandy sleeps 8 people and a baby in a cot in it's 4 bedrooms, but we recommend a maximum of 6 adults and 2 children, as the 4th bedroom has bunk beds really meant for children. As well as being Family friendly, Ynys is also dog friendly to well behaved dogs. It's the perfect place for families and you can even bring the dog! The large, south facing garden at the back of Ynys is totally enclosed by shrubs and fencing, so is safe for children and dogs with a gate for access into the fields beyond.

The back fields are great for flying kites (no overhead cables), playing football and other games or just wandering, exploring and looking at the mountains of Craig y Garn, the Cwm Pennant range and Moel Hebog.
