Welcome to Cefn Coch Farm Self-Catering holiday cottages, near Machynlleth, West Wales. Come and enjoy the views...

  

Two Luxury Self Catering Holiday Cottages in the hills near Machynlleth, West Wales on the edge of Snowdonia and close to the Cardigan Coastline 

 An ideal base for a romantic break, family holiday or couples holidaying together. 

The Cottage sleeps 4 and The Barn sleeps up to 6 - please see Accommodation for full descriptions of the two cottages. 

When booked together the holiday cottages can sleep 8-10 people. 

  Two semi-detached holiday cottages which have been recently converted to a very high standard, and offer luxury self-catering holiday accommodation in a fantastic hillside location near Machynlleth, West Wales.  Available for holidays all the year round with cosy wood-burning stoves, full oil-fired underfloor central heating in the colder months, fluffy duvets, crisp white bed linen, instant hot water, patio gardens with BBQs and outside lighting, and wonderful views. We hope you will enjoy your stay.  

Set in a glorious, peaceful rural location in the foothills of the Cambrian Mountains and close to the Cardigan coast and the Ancient Capital of Wales Machynlleth, Cefn Coch Farm Self-Catering Holiday Cottages are a very comfortable holiday base for exploring this beautiful part of West Wales. Converted from an unused stone barn called Llechwedd Einion, the semi-detached holiday cottages now offer modern, luxury accommodation lying  in a spectacular hillside setting.  You will find the self-catering holiday cottages on our hill farm about a mile above the hamlet of Glaspwll, near Machynlleth, above the forgotten Llyfnant Valley. 

  The unspoilt and undisturbed location of the farm cottages is a haven for many varieties of wildlife, and an ideal base for keen bird watchers to see some unusual species from the doorstep.  Recent sightings reported by our guests include the grasshopper warbler, redstarts (several breeding pairs around the cottages), grey wagtails, tree pipits, meadow pipits, red kite, grey heron, whinchats, stonechats, red polls, black caps and many more.  The nearby beaches and Dovey estuary offer some wonderful sightings of waders and other water fowl and the RSPB reserve at Ynys-hir is just a short drive away. 

 

The market town of Machynlleth (the Ancient Capital of Wales) is a short drive away, with the beaches of the Cardigan Coastline at Aberdovey, Borth and Ynyslas also within easy reach. Also nearby are the RSPB reserve at Ynys Hir, the Centre for Alternative Technology, Steam Railways (Corris, Tallylyn, Rheidol Valley etc), Nature Reserves, King Arthur's Labyrinth, Mountain Biking trails, Snowdonia National Park  and MUCH MORE!! (see The Area for more details of things to see and do).

When booked together, The Cottage and The Barn can sleep up to 10 people. Great holiday cottages for reunions or family get-togethers. Off the beaten track - there is no passing traffic (except the odd tractor and horses on the bridlepath!!) as the cottages are on a bumpy farm track which leads nowhere!! 

Both holiday cottages are available throughout the year having oil-fired central heating and cosy wood-burners, and also for weekend and short breaks outside the main summer holiday season. Please contact us for further information about availability for specific dates.

Looking for a last minute break in beautiful Wales? Please ask about discounts for last minute cottage bookings.

We hope this website will give you a flavour of the wonderful location of these two newly converted holiday cottages, and the comfort of the accommodation. 

Access to the cottages is via a bumpy farm track which is steep in places - so take care if driving a low-slung or heavily laden car!!!

Please note: children under the age of 8 must be supervised at all times because of the numerous streams which can flow very fast.

For prices, click on the button on the left of this page or contact us for last minute discounts.

We regret that we cannot accept pets, and ask people to only smoke outside the properties.
