Yr Olaf
About the home
Yr Olaf was converted from an old farm building and is constructed from local stone and slate. It is decorated and furnished in a contemporary style reflecting its light and airy situation.
For the sure-footed holidaymaker seeking just to relax and unwind, why not take a walk from your front door along the private cliff path to the secluded shingle beach below Yr Olaf where your only company is most likely to be herons, oystercatchers and cormorants.

The Gulf Stream bathes this coastline in warm air and though the high mountains may be shrouded in mist, from the advantage of Rola cottages where the mountain rise hasn’t had chance to cool the air to cloud, the view is splendid.
The atmospheric Castell y Bere, a ruined castle sitting atop a rocky outcrop in the Dysinni valley is nearby. A mediaeval church at Llangelynin and prehistoric settlements with standing stones above Llwyngwril define the history of the area.

Yr Olaf was as described, so no argument there. Secluded, private and almost completely shut off from the outside world. No shops/restaurants in walking distance (the description makes that clear)... more |

We have just returned from Yr Olaf and were delighted with the cottage. The views are stunning and the cottage itself is well appointed and very comfortable. My partner fished off the private beach... more |

We wanted somewhere just to get away for a couple of nigts peace and quiet, but still with that romantic feeling.........and we got everything we could have wanted. The location is far enough away from the town ( approx 6 miles to main supermarkets) and the views are stunning. We were lucky enough to have good weather and the wallk along the beach, even though it is more large stones and shingle than beach was worth the effort. Rounded the day off with a glass of wine on the balcony watching the sun set ... as I say perfect........ we will be back. |
