Ysgubor Dyfi

A truly remarkable stay with stunning panoramic unspoiled views. A must for any couple or family wanting total peace and tranquility. Only things I can suggest to add is a few more cooking utensils, usual mod cons for total laziness. Now here’s a recipe for a bottle of wine on a sunset evening. A********* .

We loved staying at Ysgubor Dyfi. The arrival instructions were clear and the warning about the road up to the property is accurate! Having said that we made it OK in our rear-wheel drive saloon so as long as conditions are not too bad, most cars should manage. Massive supply of logs provided - the log-burner is the only form of heating - and with it being winter we kept it going most of the time but barely made a dent in the supply. The weather while we were there was incredibly wild and windy but we were very cosy. Due to the limitations of the power supply, the fridge is small so it's worth bearing that in mind but we didn't find it a problem. Highlights were the bath-with-a-view, and seeing red kites over the field right in front of the barn. We will definitely be back.

As we set off up the mountain track we felt we were travelling a million miles away from the chaos and noise of modern life. The barn is amazing - the decking is perfect to lie on and cloud watch by day and star watch by night, Only downside was having to come home! Perfect place and stunning views and walks - and a very comfy bed! Thank you we will be back, Jo, David and Harry the dog

Our stay here was the perfect get away from the Christmas madness. The barn really is magical. We arrived in the dark to discover origami stars hung from wires made out of music manuscript paper, a tea light chandelier and the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. The owners clearly have impeccable taste! We loved the beautiful fabric turned into cushions and throws, the big wood burner with plenty of fuel and the most luxurious sunken bath. You really can lie in the bath with a cup of coffee, the window open and gaze out at the sheep and the hillside. Great walking from the door and the Co-op in Machynlleth is huge and well stocked so we needn't have done a huge supermarket shop before we left. Really recommend this property, it has so much character, is so warm and cosy and is in a stunning location.

We have just returned from 3 wonderful days at Ysgubor Dyfi. It truly was amazing. The fact that we could take our 3 cavaliers with us was great. They had the best time ever. Great walks on the doorstep. The barn is fantastic, it has everything you need. The views are tremendous. We would return anytime of the year for the experience. Thank you. X

This was our second stay at Eco barn and what a wonderful week it was. The wind and rain only added to the dramatic landscape. There's so much to love about this place , the sunken bath with a view, the cosy lounge and fire, the solitude, I could go on and on and on...

We will miss the green! The barn was lovely and the views beautiful in all weathers - sun, rain and mist. In fact, white mist in the valley below with and orange sunrise above ties for first place with the vibrant greens backed by Cadair Idris. Lots to do and see - fabulous walks from the house and further afield, lovely beaches,. The ospreys are not to be missed, and Mark the Mole at Corris Mine Explorers was the surprise hit of the holiday. The barn itself lived up to the pictures, and although poor Daffyd had to work hard to fix the inverter for the electricity we had a most comfortable and relaxing stay (Inverter now working perfectly, should be good for another 7 years!)

We arrived at the Eco barn to be pleasantly surprised by the size and cosy feel of the place. The views are spectacular! We even watched the annual firework display at Borth from the balcony. We were blessed with brilliant weather for early November but needed the wood burner after a day at the beach walking. The night sky was amazing! We saw the Milky Way and shooting stars. All this made my 50th birthday celebrations all the more special. The barn has been renovated to a high standard with an interesting mix of antique and retro furniture. We will definitely stay here again! One of our favourite UTT places for position/views.

An amazing place, the cottage had a timeless quality. Living literally in the landscape gave a welcomed rest from the digital world. So much to explore in the area for young and old adventurers - Ospreys, art, great cafes, deserted sandy beaches and magical mountains.

We enjoyed a fabulous three night stay in this gorgeous barn;it was a great base to climb Snowdon on the Saturday and explore surrounding countryside on the Sunday. The beds were very comfortable, the wood-burner made the barn inviting and the eclectic mixture of styles of furniture and colours looked wonderful together.

Fantastic place to unwind and teach the children about the value of electricity - leave the lights on at your peril!

Arrived to sunshine and buzzards have had a amazing stay. Without doubt our best stay away from home anywhere, truly wonderful place. Thanks for recharging our worn out batteries....- Woody and Sarah.

We loved everything. The sun shone on us. The wind howled at us. The fire toasted us. The house charmed us. And the lambs entertained us. Most of all we loved the peace and isolation... and has anyone mentioned the views yet? - Aly and Duncan, Bristol
