What a spot, lovely location for walks and drive outs, although by the main road you are not aware that it is there. Views from the living area are stunning and tesco deliver there too which is brilliant when you are in tiny old classic cars with no boot space.
A lovely converted barn, with wonderful views. Well equipped with everything you might need and more besides. Plenty of space for off road parking and extremely peaceful, despite Storm Eunice passing through! The only slightly negative comment would be that the Wi-Fi signal was weak. We had a great week and would definitely recommend Awel Deg to friends and family. We would stay here again when next in the area.

Thank you for your feedback - we have spoken with the owner regarding the wi-fi at the property, and they have advised the following: 'The wi fi is based on a 4G transmitter and typically hits 12mbs. On seeing this review we have contacted the service provider who have confirmed that during this stay there was a fault on the local transmitter caused by the recent storms. This fault has now been cleared and the wi fi service is back to normal.' The owner has also apologised for the issues you encountered with the wi-fi; had they known, they would have done all they could to have rectified the problem, but we are so glad to hear that you were still able to have a wonderful stay despite this! We look forward to welcoming you back to Awel Deg again soon.
This is a beautifully converted barn with fantastic panoramic views. The location is great with many great walks from the doorstep or a short drive away. Note that the property is middle-terrace and that there is an adjacent building containing two large holiday lets with clear sight lines to the cottage, which isn't shown in the photos. During our stay everything was nicely quiet however. Inside, the cottage is very well equipped, especially the kitchen. One thing that can be improved is the cleanliness. Upstairs everything was clean but the bedrooms downstairs were not very clean, with lots of dust bunnies under the beds and around the wardrobes. There was a plumbing issue during our stay but it was promptly handled by the amazing caretaker Roy. The owners were very accommodating with some requests that we had. We had a relaxing stay and would happily stay here again.

Thank you for your review! We are so pleased to hear that you had a wonderful time at Awel Deg - it really is such a fantastic property, with the most incredible views. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the owners with regard to the cleaning so that they can address this with their changeover team. We are glad to hear that the owner was so helpful during your stay, and we very much look forward to welcoming you back to Awel Deg once again!
Nice conversion and location with a few issues. Plenty of amenities to use in the kitchen. Some plumbing issues ie hot and cold reversed in one basin and walk in shower when used has soaked into surrounding wood work floor and skirtings. Floor upstairs seems to have failed too and is very spongey. Both bathroom windows awkward and one would not openSettees not the most comfortable to sit in a log stove would have put the icing on the cake!A little more info on the area would be nice for walks and places to eat. Only looking through guest book towards the end of the stay we found a waterfall area only a few minutes walk away. We also found cafes and pubs by research near by that were good too.
Great location and cottage was well equipped with everything you need - I did purchase a mop and left it there as one was not provided. The views are stunning and every day a different picture. The fact the Mawddach Trail was so close was great. Would be good to have a bike rack or somewhere to leave bikes as we would love to come back with bikes. Would recommend this cottage for a relaxing, quiet, amazing break.

Awel Deg is located on the south bank of the Mawddach Estuary. This part of southern Snowdonia has a spectacular landscape making it a walkers paradise. Less crowded than the slopes of Snowdon, the mountains in this part of the national park provide a real opportunity to explore the true wilderness of Wales.
