Egryn

Egryn is a Grade II-listed Medieval hall house with a large, private walled garden, perfect for families and friends gathering together. Situated on working farmland, the house has been furnished in keeping with each period of its development with a replica Egryn dining table taking pride of place in the medieval dining hall. 

Enjoy a long, lazy breakfast in the garden before exploring the quaint coastal town of Barmouth with its maze of alleyways, just a short trip from the holiday cottage. 

Further afield, tour the coast of Gwynedd. The golden sands of Cardigan Bay are just a short drive from here where you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the bottlenose dolphins. Or drive just five minutes to the old town of Barmouth. This pretty Victorian seaside town has lots of charm with its mountainside slate-roof cottages and steep alleyways.

Please note: Egryn is located on a working farm. For your safety all farm buildings and yards are strictly out of bounds, all gates must be kept shut and consideration must be given to the movement of live stock and machinery. 

Due to the nature and age of the building some floors are uneven and there are low beams and doorways throughout the property. There is a small step from the hall to the twin and a large step from the twin to the bathroom/single corridor. 

All fires are purely decorative and are not to be used under any circumstances.
