Welcome to Tyn Llech

Aerial view of a countryside with a house, trees, green hills, and a mountain in the background on a clear day.

Tyn Llech is nestled within the private Wern Estate, offering a peaceful retreat surrounded by beautiful woodlands and scenic lanes. You are welcome to explore the area, but please be mindful of the livestock and make sure to close any gates behind you. The house is exceptionally comfortable, blending a thoughtful mix of old and new furnishings.

The kitchen/diner is well-equipped with a freestanding cooker, full-size fridge freezer, microwave, toaster, and more. A separate utility room houses the washer and dryer. We are happy to accommodate one well-behaved dog, but please ensure they stay out of the bedrooms and off the furniture. The garden is enclosed with walls and gates, providing a safe space for young children. A smart TV is available. We provide an initial basket of our own logs for the wood burner.

While the postal address is listed below, please follow our directions for the last few miles, as relying on Sat Nav may lead you into one of Mr. Jones' (the farmer) fields.
