Maesgwm Barn Reviews

Howard
Maesgwm Barn was amazing. Lovely accomodation perched on a hill in the forest park. The location was very peaceful with views out over the hills and mountains. The Barn had a quirky layout which was really interesting. It was well equipped with everything you could ever need. The owner Mae and John (and Mae the dog) lived on site and we're super friendly and helpful. We all really enjoyed staying here and will be back at some point.
Vickie
Fantastic location. Comfortable, clean, well equipped cottage. Lovely & quiet. Great views across to the other side of Coed-y-Brenin forest. Owners live next door & really helpful for local information. Come prepared for midges in the evening this time of year. You can cycle straight from the cottage & you're on the Coed-y-Brenin cycle paths. Bike storage on site too.
Jacqueline
Fantastic 5* accommodation. Couldn't wish for anything better.
Vickie
Fabulous cottage in a great location. A well equipped barn overlooking the Coed-y-Brenin valley. Mountain bike trails from the cottage. Bike storage. Walking paths straight from the cottage. Owners live next door & are very friendly, welcoming & helpful .Water is from a bore hole, but has the best shower in a rental cottage we've stayed in. Wifi/ internet/ phone signal is good. Very comfortable beds. Kitchen well equipped.
