Glan Cader

The cottage at Glan Cader was perfect in every way. We arrived just before Storm Darragh hit and the thick walls were the perfect snug retreat to hunker down while the storm raged outside. It was warm with the underfloor heating and log burner. The cottage has been sensitively renovated preserving the old features and it is beautifully equipped. We particularly enjoyed the selection of books on local history and the Welsh language. Marilyn & Kevin were so helpful and very accommodating making us feel most welcome. The setting is perfect and our only disappointment was that the weather was too wild to climb Cader Idris so we are already planning our return visit to do that.

This lovingly restored, historic little cottage, at the end of a hidden valley at the foot of Cader Idris, kept us cosy and warm while Storm Bert raged outside. There are many beautiful touches in the cottage, the beds are very comfortable, and the heated slate floor is wonderful. The bathroom, though small, was fine for two of us. The local area is interesting as well as beautiful, with a friendly pub, The Railway Inn, a 10-minute drive away (but no shops nearby - come well stocked with what you need). Marilyn and Kevin couldn't have been kinder, more welcoming hosts. We'd love to come back with better weather and explore more, including the walk up to Cader Idris from the front door.

This lovely cottage is so cosy and homely, set in the most beautiful, peaceful location. Walks from the door and a short drive to the most amazing beaches and quirky towns. The local pub is a 5 minute drive away but very friendly, and although we only had a drink, the menu looked really good. Feeling really rested after our week stay here, one of the best holidays we have ever had, can highly recommend. Thank you so much

Wow, what a magical stay. The cottage is beautiful and every detail has been thought of. The surroundings bring such peace. The whole place is steeped in history and amazing walks. We loved meeting Marilyn and Kevin… what beautiful souls. Thank you for sharing your bit of paradise with us.

We had a lovely stay at Glan Cader and highly recommend it for its location for great walks on your doorstep. The interior of the property is beautiful and beds really comfy. The only downside is the low pressure on the shower but it’s just one of those you need to accept with a remote location like this. Met the owners who were lovely:) We were also lucky that the property next door was not booked out and so our dog Morris had full freedom to roam. We will certainly look to book again.

We had a lovely long weekend stay in this delightful cottage. The accommodation served as a welcome retreat and base for exploring the area, and the amazing welsh countryside. Beautiful decor and so homely. Wish we had booked for longer.

What a fabulous week we have had at Glan Cader. The cottage exceeded our expectations and is a beautifully renovated historic gem. Its location in incredible scenery on the route to Cader Idris is very special. We had the pleasure of meeting the lovely owners also. Fantastic beds and dog friendly! Thanks UTT and Marylin and Kevin- we will be back!

What an absolutely amazing stay. The cottage was perfect and the setting breathtaking. So many amazing walks and trips to be done in the surrounding area and perfect for adults as well as our toddler! All the little details are taken care of by the amazing and friendly owners - we really appreciated the child friendly cutlery and crockery! We wish we’d had more than a weekend! Thanks ever so much - we’ll definitely be back.

Beautiful well equipped cottage in the middle of nature at a farm. Perfect to find peace and relax. Walks literally start in front of the house. After the walks it was great to enjoy the comfort of the house and a well deserved bed rest.
