Llanfendigaid House is a lovely place to get away from it all in Snowdonia National Park. It is surrounded by an acre of wooded gardens. The house has nine well-designed bedrooms that can sleep up to 16 people. There are family, twin, and super king rooms, and some of them have great views of the ocean. The interior areas have been carefully planned to be fun and relaxing.

The property has two well-furnished reception rooms and a big kitchen that can handle catering for groups. The dining room is big enough for 18 people to sit comfortably, so it’s a great place for special meals. There are a lot of things for guests of all ages to do, like a swing tyre, table tennis and a warm indoor pool.

The outdoor areas have been carefully planned, including a big BBQ area and comfortable seating for eating outside. The grounds are great for both relaxing and playing.

The estate has six buildings and can hold up to 36 people. This gives bigger groups more choices while still ensuring everyone is comfortable and has their own space.

Location and Things to Do

Llanfendigaid House is located off the A493 coastal road, near Aberdyfi, with the nearest train station at Tonfanau, about a mile away. The area offers a variety of outdoor activities such as pony trekking, walking, mountain biking, and cycling in Snowdonia National Park. Aberdyfi is home to a sandy beach, while the surrounding hills are rich in medieval castles.

The Great Little Trains of Wales also offer scenic train trips.

Weddings

Llanfendigaid House offers a picturesque setting for family gatherings and celebrations, with space for up to 36 guests across its six properties. While not specifically noted for weddings, the tranquil environment and large gathering spaces make it a lovely spot for intimate events.

Rachel Williams Morgan

Wow what an incredible house! Stayed here as part of a large group with a charity organisation. Beds were really comfortable, lots of space to sit and relax with warm cosy fires. Great to have a swimming pool too. Outstanding countryside and lovely to be able to walk to the station and beach 15 minutes away. Would love to stay here again with the family. Would highly recommend for large groups

We had an amazing time at Llanfendigaid Estate! The hosts were super welcoming and quick to respond to any questions we had. The location couldn’t be better; just a short 15 minute drive to the beach, lakes, rivers, and even waterfalls. It’s the perfect spot if you love nature. The estate is huge, with beautiful gardens and a fantastic pool. We also loved stargazing at night; the sky was filled with stars and of course the weather helped. We had a great stay and would definitely come back.

We enjoyed a pleasant and peaceful stay at Llanfendigaid. The cottage (Stable) was very well-equipped and comfortable overall. The grounds are also very nice, and we enjoyed using the indoor swimming pool. There are some great views out to the Irish Sea when you climb to the hilltop.

We didn’t meet any of the staff whilst we were here, but it felt easy to contact someone if we needed to.

An absolute gem. Lisa, Gareth and the team are creating a little bit of quiet paradise in the most beautiful of settings. We stayed in Stable Cottage which sleeps 4, beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms. Downstairs is lovely and cosy, open plan so great for cooking, chatting and generally hanging out. There is a fantastic pool house with glorious views and other lovely hidden parts of the estate like the bench and fire pit overlooking the sea. This was our first but certainly not our last visit.

This was the most peaceful and relaxing place I’ve been in such a long time. If you want a complete escape from a busy life, then you can find it here. It’s so quiet and the grounds and gardens have had years of tending, plus new areas for bees and butterflies etc There’s a mature wood you can walk through up to a bench overlooking the sea. …..you can just hideaway and go for walks. ( DOGS WELCOME !!!! ) The owners go above and beyond with such an eye for style and detail – you have all the joy of mod cons in amongst the original and traditional features – you can see they are really caring for the place with huge love. The star gazing is amazing due to no light pollution. The indoor heated pool is such a treat. If you do want to venture out, there are gorgeous beaches a short drive away. The one we went to was pretty much deserted ( great for doggo ) and loads of lovely places with coffee shops and cafes. I just love it !

Rob Bracewell

Superb. Location is brilliant, owners are very friendly and the facilities are top.

Incredible view of the sea from the gardens.

Adell Baker

We had the most incredible weekend stay in the Shepherds Hut. The location was an absolute dream with countryside views all around plus a great view out to sea.

The hut had so many thoughtful touches throughout and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. With a comfy bed, fast Wifi, indoor and outdoor seating, bbq, and the added bonus of an indoor swimming pool and the grounds to explore. Plus plenty of places to visit on your doorstep.

Would fully recommend a stay here or at any other property’s on-site as it’s a just an amazing location.

Beautiful historic house. All original features still in place. Exceptional grounds with many lovely walks in and nearby. Train station and beach 20 min walk. Dog friendly. A place to relax and recharge.

Eleanor Maguire

We had a fantastic time staying here. The owners Gareth and Lisa had gone out of their way to make our stay as wonderful as possible. The main house was perfect for a family get together. Beautiful house. Very comfortable beds, warm and more than enough hot water. We really enjoyed the stunning surroundings. Birds rock and a walk by the dysinni river are a must. I had a great time mooching around the antique shops in Tywyn and Machynlleth too. My mum stayed in the cow shed cottage. Newly reburbished beautifully. I’ve taken home some interior design tips! Some lovely dog walks and cycle routes around the house’s extensive grounds. Overall a truly memorable stay in a beautiful house with stunning surroundings.

Oscar Smith

Very good place and well looked after.

What a fantastic place great location wonderful house pool is really nice can see the sea

KELLY Smith

What a great weekend away in a stunning location. We stayed in the Cow Shed on the estate which was well equipped and really cosy. The swimming pool was a nice touch, really nice and warm. Highly recommend and would stay again

Julian Richards

Such a beautiful place

Robert Cator

A large house but took a long time to heat up at this time of the year. We went for a long walk to the beach and used the pool on site which was very good. Also went down the coast on the train to a local town. Overall a good and very enjoyable experience.

Mark Everitt

Absolutely loved the whole experience surroundings were stunning we will certainly come back again

Elena Elena

Beauty a view of beach !

KELV GEMZA

Loved our 5 days here. Very quiet and tranquil. Lovely walk down to the beach and a walk behind the house opposite up a hill to overlook the sea. Loved watching the sun set from here. Sheep in the next field to us very nice new swimming pool to use at a little cost. Would definitely recommend and visit again

Kirsty Williams

Graham and his team made us feel so welcome! It was home from home. With access to the pool 24hrs and Ian on call for what ever we needed we thoroughly enjoyed our stay….they even managed to extend our stay with no fuss at all. The views, peace and quite was just what we needed with space for the kids to run around and burn some energy off.

James Clegg

Stayed for a week at the Cow Shed. Lovely building and great location. Enjoyed the table tennis table and pool. The views from the top of the hill just behind the house are great. The place is very clean and the beds are really comfy.

Nicola Perry

A great stay in Dove Cottage. Highly recommended for a family of 4. A peaceful spot close to lovely beaches. Loved the pool and rope swings

Jen Bailey

It was lovely

Lovely accommodation and fantastic scenery close to coast line

Kevon Edis

Wonderful history filled house and grounds in beautiful countryside. Great place to stay, all the accommodation was well maintained. Take a torch because at night it’s pitch black.

Matt Redman

Great place for a week away with a large family. Fantastic gardens, use of a swimming pool. Lots to do near by

Mohd Hilmi Hassan

We had a great holiday here. The house is super big and clean. The kitchen and dining room can cater large group.

Margaret P

Stunning location, accommodation brilliant for a family get together to celebrate a special birthday. House is huge and with 6 young children and 9 adults it was just perfect with plenty of room to escape the noise! We all slept well in very comfortable beds but found all the settees uncomfortable, tired and difficult to get off!! The dining table was just perfect and was home to evenings of playing Articulate with much fun especially with a drink or too. Walking distance to the train stop and we used this to go to Barmouth, but you could use it to get to many locations including Birmingham New Street. Had a great day out ( the only sunny day of the week) in Aberdovey which had everything for a seaside trip including crabbing and donkeys and retains its charm. The house is about 15 minutes drive to Tywyn but is otherwise in the middle of the country so we did an online shop with Asda for when we arrived. Internet access was almost impossible but it was great to have a break from it. All in all it was just perfect and when Graham the site manage retrieved our dry washing from the washing line just before it rained I don’t think you could wish for anything better. Haven’t given 5* because of the settees.

Stayed 14 times previously during the 1980’s and 90’s, the main house has been upgraded sympathetically through modernisation of the bathrooms shower rooms and cloakrooms. The addition of log burners a welcome feature too.

However nothing has been done to ensure the Aga in the kitchen is available for use, yet is a part of the rental agreement. A range cooker with two ovens can’t cater effectively for 17 when one of the ovens is not working, as was our experience throughout our 10day stay from 14th to 24th April 2018.

There is no phone signal at all and the broadband provision is unreliable.

The garden steps are now in a dangerous condition and require urgent attention to make them safe, currently they are an accident waiting to happen.

Despite these negative comments I would book again … I trust that action is taken to rectify the concerns raised"Show less

Great house, great location. Graham is a great caretaker, helpfull an knolagable about the area. Would happily come back.

Anna Simmons

Wonderful house, in gorgeous countryside, walks from your door and fantastic pool! Makes for a great holiday! Thank you �

Stacey Proudlock

The property is amazing, amazing location and a fabulous price. The beds are so cosy and warm there is no worry about a bad nights sleep. The pool is a great bonus and is big enough for what you need from a relaxing holiday. The contact we had for organising this was great and made us feel even happier about coming here from my hen party. The WiFi is pretty iffy in the house but nothing you can’t sort from a little walk on the hills to get 4G. I would definitely go back here again, I’ve made some everlasting memories here. Thank you

18 of us stayed in the main house for my 40th birthday celebrations and had an amazing time. The house was perfect for us, ages ranged from 2 – 70 and the place was big enough for us to share time together and to escape for peace and quiet when needed! Beds were comfy, the house was spotlessly clean, the kitchen was well equipped and the swimming pool helped ease our aching bones after climbing Snowdon… Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!

24 of us stayed at Llanfendigaid estate from Wednesday till Monday. We had booked the main house as well as the two cottages and the cowshed. All of us thought it was absolute perfection. The rooms were stunning with very comfortable beds. When you woke up in the morning you could hear the sea and the birds. The surroundings are stunning. The pool is such a nice addition. All properties are superbly equipped but if you needed anything extra Graham the grounds manager is very friendly and always there to help. The booking process was also very easy and it was lovely to meet the owner upon our arrival. The place is buzzing with history which is reflected in the main house. If you are thinking of booking this place, stop thinking and book, there is no possible way anyone will have any regrets after a stay here.

We have recently stayed at this fantastic house. Due to a large number of us we rented not only the main house but also both Dove Cottages and the brand new Cowshed. The accommodation was fantastic, the properties all very well laid out and furnished and very clean. Properties were warm and welcoming and we look forward to returning soon. Must also thank Graeme for the warm welcome! Many thanks,

We had such a brilliant family holiday here. It's in a lovely spot and the house is amazing – so much space. Would definitely recommend it

16 of us stayed at Llanfendigaid for my hen weekend during the last weekend of June. Our first "wow" moment was approaching the house up the beautiful drive, not to mention the stunning scenery surrounding the house.

This initial "wow" moment was to be followed by many more…

The house is everything we expected and more. Beautiful, old and ornate, with lots of original pieces of art and furniture. It was spotlessly clean when we arrived.

The bedrooms are stunning, each one different with it’s own character and story. We had so much fun exploring all the many nooks and crannies. The beds are superbly comfortable with crisp white bed linnen and fluffy feather pillows.

The kitchen and dining room are huge and there is plently room for all. There are 2 fabulous reception rooms which also have plently space.

The outdoor space is great- a huge lawn which had the sun all day. The gardens are kept beautifully and are very private.

The pool was spotless, we enjoyed a welcome dip on our first morning- just lovely.

Will was great from the moment we booked until the end of our stay, as was Graham, the site manager- who ensured our stay was perfect and comfortble at all times.

On the Saturday evening we used "the tasty catering company" to cater a fabulous meal for us. The food was second to none and we would definitely recommend Sonia and her team if you want a hassle free, catered delicious meal as part of your stay.

All in all, our expectations were exceeded at this stunnng property. Highly recommended to any group of friends/ family who seek a tranquil, comfortbale, fun retreat. You will not be disappointed!

We will most definitely be returning for the "Henniversary!!"

I stayed in the main house with 12 other ladies for my hen weekend. It was perfect Will (the owner) and the care taker were very hospitable to ensure we had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful in lovely surroundings. The real fires were lovely. Even in January the house was warm. There was plenty of space for us all to natter and eat together. Comfy beds and a pool. The amenities were also great. The house has so much history too. We all enjoyed reading about it. Places to visit near by was a bit tricky in January. But we did visit Tywyn and also Corris where we painted pots and made candles. They opened specifically for us though as they are not normally open. The cross foxes pub near corris was very nice too . We visited on the Sunday on our way home for a late dinner. Would highly recommend llanfendigaid and would love to go back.

Wonderful memories of a magical place! Something for your bucket list. . .

Pieter van Dyck

A very special place!

adrianandjoanna

This place is just amazing: -ideal for corporate escapes – we were 18pax split into main house and stable Fully equipped kitchen, a lot of art on the walls, wifi You can easily forget about the world in here – most of days we have spent with a lot of activities like rock climbing, canoeing, mine discovering. A lot of thrill and emotions provided by Arthog. You could really learn yourself and test your limits

Swiftybee

15 girls had an amazing weekend for my hen. The house was easy to find, in a beautiful setting and was the perfect party and chill out house. The beds are so comfy with feather duvets. Only one tiny bug, not enough loo roll for 15 girls so bring some extra with you! Apart from that the house had everything!!
