A beautifully restored historic longhouse overlooking the Welsh coast. With breathtaking sea views, original 17th-century features, and all the comforts of a luxury retreat, Ty Isaf offers a truly special escape for families, walkers, and four-legged friends.
The space
Ty Isaf is a traditional stone longhouse with exposed cruck-frame beams, thick whitewashed walls, and a beam dated 1663 (we believe the farmhouse itself is much older). Tucked in peaceful Tal-y-bont, walking distance to the beach and trails and an ideal base for exploring Eryri (Snowdonia) and the Mawddach trail.
Perfectly suited for groups of family and friends to get together and is layed out in a manner ideal for socialising with its corner sofas, large dining table and a kitchen where you can prepare a meal together, or sit around the island and just chat.
Thoughtfully renovated, it now offers:
3 comfortable bedrooms (sleeps 7)
Stylish modern extension and kitchen with everything you need to cook anything from a full roast dinner to a bowl of blended steaming soup.
Large dining room and table to seat all your family or friends.
Lounge with corner sofa wrapping around the large inglenook and wood burner.
Traditional slate flagstone floors downstairs and oak floors on the first floor
Full central heating
2 bathrooms with showers (one family, one en-suite) and downstairs WC.
Sun lounge/living room and covered balcony looking out over fields of sheep to the sea.
Private and secure garden with large patio.
Dog-friendly living, with room to relax and roam
Please Note
This is an old farmhouse, so some ceilings and beams are low and stones are exposed. That’s part of the character—but tall guests may need to duck!
