Relaxing on the new bowling green...not quite flat though...

That was a seriously hard but rewarding days work...time for a cider now!

We spent a fantastic four days in Shayne and Nathan's wonderful yurt. Very clean and comfortable and all the facilities were well thought out and worked well.

Shayne and Nathan were always on hand if we had any questions and gave us a warm welcome. Shayne took plenty of time showing us around and talking us through how evertying worked.

Snowdonia is within easy reach. We climbed Tryfan and Cadair Idris, both of which were about 45 minutes drive away.

Of course it helped that the weather was fantastic, but if it hadn't have been, the yurt is so big that we could have easily spent two days relaxing, reading, and listening to music in great comfort.

Thoroughly recommended! We hope to be back.

What a beautiful location. Being so high up is fantastic and it gives you a sense of escape.
Delightful hosts and the best dog ever.

Ty Mam Mwar is nestled among the beautiful Welsh landscapes. From the conifer woodland that it sits within to the beautiful rolling hills and mountains surrounding, this Airbnb is like a concentrated point of natural energy that flows through you the moment you pull up.

Nathan was the most wonderful and welcoming host we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. He was there to greet us when we arrived to show us around his beautiful patch of land, including the yurt, cabin and roundhouse that have clearly been created with love and care. Unfortunately Shayne was away during our visit but from what everyone we met said about her, we are both sure she's just as special as Nathan is.

The yurt was extremely comfortable, especially with the fire going, and the overall experience of living off grid added a very special touch to the whole week.

We can't wait to revisit this space, not only because of its beauty but because it now holds an emotional significance to us, as the woods just behind the yurt is where we got engaged. I'm sure we will be coming back here for many years to come.

Overall, we couldn't recommend this location enough to anyone who is looking for a complete reset, both mentally and spiritually, especially if you have an interest in off grid living.

We can't wait to come back! Thank you for a beautiful week and for your unquestionably good hospitality.

We had the loveliest time here! The yurt is extremely cosy with the most gorgeous surroundings and it was so peaceful there- an absolutely perfect place to relax! We had everything we needed there and there was plenty of lovely paths to walk on from the yurt. It was also easy enough to get around to explore other places. Nathan was a lovely host and very helpful- he greeted us on arrival and answered any questions we had straight away!
It was lovely putting on the fire in the yurt in the evenings to make it nice and toasty for bedtime!
Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!
