New luxury converted barn at the foot of Moel Hebog
Derwen Fach is a newly converted barn at the foot of Moel Hebog. The cottage is situated on a 2000 acer mountain farm in the heart of Snowdonia, with the Welsh Highland railway steam train right on the doorstep. Derwen Fach has been refurbished to a very high standards with everything new.
Donât hesitate to book this beautiful, comfortable and very clean accommodation in a quiet location yet a lovely 10 minute walk into Beddgelert. We enjoyed the mountain view( even in the rain), sheep, sound of cuckoo birds and the creek but the daily highlight was the heritage steam train!
Just the most idyllic property and location! Our third time here and we will be returning. Spotless house that caters for your every need and those views - wow just wow!
A gorgeous property presented to the highest standard. Within walking distance of beddgelert and right on the steam train's route. We loved it will be coming back.
My two friends and I stayed for a week, and enjoyed the property for its bucolic setting and central location to places we wished to visit. Making friends with the sheep was an added bonus, as well as the little train that passes a few times a day .
Amazing views and a beautiful home - a perfect place to stay
We spent four days in Beddgelert...and wish we had booked for longer! We had one rainy day, but it was fine because we loved looking out at the sheep, mountains, trees, and the beauty that surrounds the home. The home was lovely and had everything you would need. The owners were terrific and had a large selection of treats waiting for us. They were happy to help and kept the grounds beautiful. For those who are interested, there is a Celtic rainforest next to the property. Our friend was excited to discover it, as they are no longer as common in Wales. These include large areas with ferns and thick moss. To access it, walk out of the home and cross the train tracks, turning to your right to follow the path. You will see it near the house. Many of the trees are covered by moss, as are the stone walls under the trees. It makes for amazing pictures. There are trails throughout the area that you can follow to find more.
We stayed for 4 nights, and it was wonderful. Very quiet, just far enough off the beaten track. Charming little steam train along the bottom of the garden once a day. Accommodation very clean and welcoming.
We really enjoyed our vacation. The accommodation is very nice and modern. The view of nature is fantastic and the beautiful Beddgelert is only a 10-minute walk away. A clear number one.
We were so please to be able to stay at this incredible property, the location was perfect, the natural surroundings were gorgeous, the hosts had set the house up so beautifully, we couldn't have wished for anymore!
Weâve had a fantastic stay. The house is warm and welcoming, beds are really comfortable and the welcome treats were extremely thoughtful and generous. The views are really lovely and the hosts are really friendly and helpful. Canât recommend enough
Stayed at Derwen Fach for 7 nights from 26th December 2023, stunning location, spectacular views, beautiful house, decor & layout spot on. Easy 10 minute walk into Beddgelert, would definately recommend & return đ
A perfect base to explore Snowdonia National Park.
Absolutely loved our stay in Derwen Fach. Itâs a beautiful, modern barn conversation that has everything you need as a base for exploring all that the Snowdonia National Park has to offer. Amazing views from the living room, a cracking log burner to keep you toasty on colder nights, and great communication (and welcome pack) from our hosts. We would definitely stay again!
The house is beautiful, secluded, with stunning views. Only a 10 minute walk into the village, with Porthmadog a 15 minute drive away. The owners are fabulous and the house has everything and more that you could need. We had a great week (despite the rain) and will definitely return.
A great barn conversion sitting amongst several mountains. Short walk into Beddgelert, which is lovely. Steam trains pass by several times a day. A truly brilliant stay.
Climb Moel Hebog if you dare.
A beautiful place to stay beautiful surroundings and views. Host was more than helpful. Great communication. Property was outstanding. Would definitely go there again to stay lovely for peace and quiet and a lovely wind down to hectic life.
Our second stay in this stunning property in picturesque Beddgelert, Snowdonia. The house is a modern, beautifully converted barn. With everything you could wish for to make your stay perfect. Would definitely return again. Hosts were very easy to contact if needed, and had left a fabulous welcome pack of delicious locally produced favourites.
A perfect base for exploring North Wales and Snowdonia. Peaceful rural setting within easy walk of Beddgelert. Amazing view and surrounded by Heritage Narrow Gauge Railway so perfect for Steam Engine enthusiasts. Beautifully fitted out with well equipped kitchen and bathrooms, and two spacious bedrooms. Everything you could want and more.
This property lived up to all expectations. The decor, furniture and all equipment was of the highest standard. There was no aspect of the description which was exaggerated. The setting was extremely secluded and private. There are no near neighbours. This is a highly recommended destination in the heart of amazing countryside.
On the drive up to the property the views were breathtaking, the views of Snowdon and the Menai strait are difficult to describe in their beauty. The instructions given by the hosts were clear and we found the property with ease. The cottage is just as described, the photos on here are very true to the image in person. The 2 bedrooms were light and clean with plenty of space in both. The 2 bathrooms were clean and modern with fresh towels and hand soap provided. It is clear that this has been modernised with eyes to detail as the kitchen and living space were elegantly decorated. The gift basket and treats for our daughter upon arrival were thoughtful and indicative of Garth and Llinos hosting style.
The train traveling past the cottage was a lovely event and the views are indescribable! The photos on here really donât do justice to the gorgeous setting in which Derwen Fach sits. The sound of the babbling brook can be heard and it just adds to the tranquility of the setting.
I have tried my hardest to describe the indescribable in this review but it can only be believed when seen with your own eyes.
If you are considering this cottage as a holiday stay I would give you this advice, do it! You will not regret staying at Derwen Fach, we cannot wait to visit again!
Absolutely brilliant, the location is surrounded by nature but only a 10 minute walk to the village shops & pubs. Really comfy bed, well equipped kitchen, modern and spotlessly clean.
Would highly recommend and will be booking another trip in future
