Pen-y-geulan is a hidden gem, Nestled in the quiet Dyfi valley close to market town of Machynlleth this beautiful detached cottage is the definition of tranquility. Sleeping up to 5 people over 2 bedrooms. The house dates back to early 1800’s when it used to be 2 very small cottages. Renovated in 1977 and then again in 2007 when we bought it. The views are simply stunning looking up and down the Dyfi valley – hence why we have the living room upstairs so this can be best appreciated. We welcome dogs and the terraced garden which extends to nearly quarter of an acre is fenced immediately around the house. Machynlleth is only 6 miles away and there is a fantastic pub in the village serving food from 8am. The house is well furnished with a mix of antique / vintage items with some modern comforts. We do have Wifi and Satellite Tv for bad weather days.

Many thanks the owners of Pen Y Geulan Hoilday Cottage and Seren Property for facilitating this camera's location. This is a co-funded project on behalf of the Natural Environment Research Council (Nerc) funded project, the 'Environmental Virtual Observatory pilot' (through Aberystwyth University and The James Hutton Institute, Aberdeen). They are exploring the interest in and use of internet-based resources to individuals and communities following a flooding event. Through demonstration to, and evaluation by a local community focus group, the potential of online resources to improve understanding of catchment hydrology will be assessed. The Dovey rises in the small lake Creiglyn Dyfi at about 1,900 feet above sea level, below Aran Fawddwy, flowing south to Dinas Mawddwy and Cemmaes Road, then south west past Machynlleth to Cardigan Bay at Aberdyfi. The only large town on its route is Machynlleth. Because of its origins high in the Cambrian Mountains and its relatively short length, it is prone to flooding and some roads in the lower catchment can become impassable during very wet weather. It is a relatively pristine river with few polluting inputs and is notable for its Salmon and Sea Trout.
