Bryn Eglwys Barn in Llanegryn near Tywyn | Must-See Gwynedd Hot Tub Cottage

About Bryn Eglwys Barn

Bryn Eglwys Barn is a stone-fronted single-storey retreat tucked away in rural Llanegryn near Tywyn, Gwynedd. This converted barn sits right in the heart of Eryri National Park. Perfect for couples seeking peace without isolation - you're just 3.5 miles from Tywyn's restaurants and supermarkets.

The Welsh countryside surrounds you here. Mountains rise in the distance while quiet fields stretch around the small holding where the barn sits. Want beaches? They're just 3 miles away. Fancy a pint? The local pub is 2 miles down the road. The location strikes that rare balance between "middle of nowhere" and "everything you need nearby." And yes, after a day of hiking, that wood-fired hot tub will feel amazing.

The accommodation is all on one level (though there are three internal steps). You'll find one double bedroom, a modern shower room and an open-plan living space with a woodburning stove. The kitchen comes fully equipped with electric oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Everything is immaculately presented - "like a hotel suite," according to one guest.

Explore Tywyn beach (3 miles), climb Cadair Idris (15 miles, 30-minute drive), visit Harlech Castle (25 miles, 45-minute drive), or ride the Talyllyn Railway (4 miles, 10-minute drive). The location is perfect for both mountain and coastal adventures.

Bryn Eglwys Barn delivers everything you need for a romantic getaway. The owners are wonderfully attentive without being intrusive. And did I mention the hot tub under the stars?

Bryn Eglwys Barn Reviews

The property was superb. The hot tub was delightful. Our hosts couldn't not have been more pleasant and helpful.

Robert

The fact that upcoming months show reduced rates possibly due to lack of bookings indicates that original rates are set far too high. I think high rental rates are putting people off. Would be advisable to lower rates and thereby increase lets which would be beneficial to owners. Property and owners are excellent so a shame to lose out due to setting rates so high.

Graham

Great accommodation with everything you need in a fabulous location. The hot tub is superb!

Myself and my partner had a fantastic stay here. Lovely hot tub, great hosts, beautiful cottage and fantastic scenery .we will come backBig thank you to the friendly hosts.

Abbie-mae

The property and the location is beautiful. Karen & the family cannot do enough for you, super friendly & communication was perfect. Thankyou for the best stay!

Pamela

If there had been a 5 star option above we would have awarded it as the facilities were superb. An additional note. The post code LL36 9SB takes you to the centre of the village of Llanegryn. It would be better to state The property is on the right hand side of the A493 Tywyn Dolgellau road, about 500 yards beyond the turning for Llangeryn

An amazing holiday, very relaxing! Karen welcomed us and was attentative throughout our stay.. we shall return.

Anthony

Lovely new cottage in a stunning location! Highly recommended.

Elizabeth

This cottage and its owners are so welcoming. Its beautifully finished, very clean and well equipped like a hotel suite. Lovely views especially from the raised sitting area and dog walks from your door. The owners have a permissive path for well behaved dogs, on lead, over their fields and woods. 1.5m from Tywyn with its glorious beach where theres a good dog area too. Gywedd and neighbouring counties has much to explore. Heritage railways and historic sites and amazing waterfalls and mountains and coast. Not to mention great icecream! We intend to return.

Robert

Lovely cottage and stay. Thank you

A beautifully converted barn providing all the facilities necessary for a great stay. The location is delightfully quiet but only about three and a half miles from Tywyn where there are plenty of restuarants and two good supermarkets. Rhys and Karen, the owners, are very welcoming and helpful, making our stay very enjoable. The nearby Talyllyn Railway is a must!

Andrew

The property was in an excellent location and extremely easy to find plus only a few miles from Tywyn for food supplies and the beach. The facilities provided within the property were brilliant. I would definitely recommend Bryn Eglyws Barn!

Beautiful cottage, very peaceful, the welcome gift was a lovely touch. We were in a great location to visit surrounding areas such as Tywyn, Barmouth, etc, A very dog friendly area, the beaches were also very good. Karen the own was very friendly, and approachable. The cottage was very warm, the log burner was excellent, well decorated and you had all the cooking utensils and crockery you need. We will be back later in the year.

Lovely cottage set in a peaceful setting. Good location for exploring the area. Everything was beautifully presented, nice comfortable bed and facilities were excellent.

A little gem, so comfortable and welcoming. Immaculately presented and clean. Karen was helpful and on hand if required.

Great place to stay. Cosy, warm, and well equipped, great to come home to at the end of a day. Very friendly hosts. Even saw a meteor on the way in one evening! Many thanks hope to return soon.

Richard

Thank you to Karen and family for a lovely stay. Karen checked in with us, to ensure everything was good. The property was perfect, the welcome pack and supplies were much appreciated. The general facilities, including the log burner were immaculate, everything was well maintained, exceptionally clean and looked after. The location was superb, and was perfect for visiting the local area. We will visit again. Thank you.
