Cefn Cestyll

Built in 1620, this former drovers’ inn now forms a superb holiday cottage, attractively furnished and comfortable, with oak beams throughout and two wood-burning stoves to provide a cosy retreat in the winter months. Standing detached in an elevated position, it is set in a peaceful and pleasant location and enjoys spectacular, far-reaching views over rolling countryside to Snowdonia beyond. The patio area is ideal for barbecues and enjoying the wonderful views.
