Mynach - or 'Monk' is names after the farm which used to form part of the land owned by monks. Ideal for the larger family, rear double doors lead onto patio area with views down towards river and BBQ area
There are nine farm cottages to be found at Y Gaer.
If you need to forget the stresses and strains of every day life and work you need travel no further than the boundary of this 8 acre holding but just relax and enjoy the tranquility of this peaceful setting At the end of a spacious lawn flows the River Grannell, a gentle trickle in Summer but swollen in December by the Winter rains. The crystal water is home to the local trout and you are invited to fish along a 300 yd. stretch, with the appropriate license.
On the hill there are extensive views across unspoilt open countryside, an
ideal place to picnic and spend the day without the need to drive.
The resident animals compete for attention and food and are thoroughly spoiled by visitors who share all their vegetable scraps with them -- but the chickens and ducks in return do produce beautiful, fresh free range eggs for you to enjoy. The large enclosure is also home to a variety of guinea pigs and rabbits.
As Gaer Cottages are open all year round the magnificent indoor swimming pool enables you to relax and enjoy a healthy swim in tropical surroundings, even on Christmas day.
