Welcome to Tyn Llech
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.

We are pleased to advise that we have an EV charging station on the Wern Estate. If you are coming with an electric car then please let Kerrie know so that she can show you where the station is. Our app will record when and how much electricity you have used and so you will be able to either pay by cash before departure (probably easiest) or we can charge against your card. We are not looking to make money on this, it is a service that we are offering guests and solely want to cover costs.
