The Pool Cottage is one of five cottages at Ty Poeth. Set in the heart of Wales, this group of cottages are in a unique peaceful situation, surrounded by five acres of garden with lawns overlooking the Dyfi valley on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park. The River Dyfi and the Aran Fawddwy mountain range meet and lead out to the beautiful coast of Cardigan Bay. Ty Poeth is only about 10 minutes’ drive from the market town of Machynlleth - a busy place steeped in history, home to the world famous Centre for Alternative Technology. The beach at Aberdovey is within half an hour and it takes not much longer to reach the university town of Aberystwyth on the coast or to drive into the Snowdonia National Park and see some of the most dazzling mountain scenery in the UK.
The gardens at Ty Poeth were created a hundred years ago and have planted borders with a wide variety of plants and shrubs and an abundance of wildlife. There are four separate lawns, perfect for picnics on sunny days and for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Paths through the woodlands and along terraces are perfect for strolls or as places for children to play. Each semi-detached cottage is private with garden views.
