Min Y Dwr Reviews

Emma Clarke
We absolutely loved our stay here! Waking up to the sounds of birds and the river was just so peaceful and calming. The place itself is really comfy, perfect for relaxing evenings with some games. We had an amazing week exploring different spots in our minibus, visiting lovely pubsand checking out attractions suitable for all ages. Places like the aquaduct, sculpture parkand Horseshoe Falls were fantasticand the drive to Snowdon and Portmeirion was definitely worth it. Overall, a really great spot to base ourselves. Highly recommend!

Honestly, the cottage is gorgeous. We were instantly wowed when we walked inand the main living space with those huge floor-to-ceiling windows offering stunning river views really stole the show. The garden is also lovely, but it’s the scenery that leaves you speechless. Only downside is that you have to leave at some point-such a shame! We’ll definitely be returning, no doubt about it. Truly a special spot!
