About Fron Dirion
Fron Dirion is a secluded 18th-century cottage located on a working hill farm. There's a wood-burning stove in the original inglenook fireplace, stone floors, an enclosed garden and superb views up the valley from the kitchen window.
Enjoy an alfresco lunch before heading out into the beautiful countryside that surrounds Fron Dirion. The area is perfect for hikers and reassuringly secluded.
A little further afield, Cymer Abbey a ruined Cistercian abbey founded in 1198 is 10 miles from the cottage, while the nearby Mawddach Trail, based on an old railway line, is great for walkers.
