United States of AmericaGreat hosts, room good size and comfortable with amazing view. Breakfast had plenty of options and was excellent. We would definitely stay again when visiting this part of Wales. Well located for exploring Snowdonia and Jason (owner) was very knowledgeable about the area and best places to visit.
Andrea

United KingdomThe nice and cute cottage is lively. Breakfast is authentic, hearty and gives you energy for the whole day adventure trips. Jason is an avid wildlife photographer, his nature creatures and scenery photos are amazing. His suggestion on the day trip was right on target. We only regret we hadn't enough time to stay at Te Derw longer.

United States of AmericaEverything! It was the perfect stop for our adventures in Wales. Jason and Gill were wonderful hosts. Great hospitality, delicious breakfasts, lovely local sightseeing recommendations. We were even able to arrange a bird of prey session to see some of Jason’s gorgeous birds up close.

United KingdomWe loved everything about our 2 night stay. If you are planning a trip to explore Snowdonia this location is perfect. The breakfast was delicious, the bed was super comfortable, the attention to detail was remarkable and if this wasn't enough, the welcome you receive and the local knowledge that is shared by Jason is truly outstanding. If you are thinking of booking this B&B just do it. You will be so glad that you did.

Set in Snowdonia National Park Ty Derw is a beautiful Victorian Stone building which originally belonged to the owners of the slate quarry which lies behind the house. Full of character, tastefully decorated, warm and welcoming Ty Derw is a comfortable and cosy retreat to return to after exploring the local area. We have fantastic views across the valley from our pretty gardens and guests can enjoy a drink outside on summer evenings (weather permitting of course!).
We pride ourselves on our friendly and welcoming approach and love welcoming guests into our B&B. We are passionate about the local area and what it has to offer our guests and love to help guests plan their days. Between us we have interests in photography (Jason's photographs are in pride of place in all of the rooms), food and cooking, walking and exploring the local area.
Dinas Mawddwy is a quiet but very friendly village. Ideally situated for exploring the coast, Snowdonia, Portmerion and all of the fabulous local sights.We are lucky to have a local pub which serves great food and local beers and is a real hub of the community. We are on the Mach loop low fly training zone and often have jets flying past the house- an amazing sight!
