About Sarn y Plas
Once the home of poet R S Thomas and artist M E (Elsi) Eldridge, the mid 18th century stone cottage offers spectacular views across Cardigan Bay. Located within walking distance from Plas yn Rhiw, the surrounding landscape and nature of Llŷn deeply inspired the creative works of both R S and Elsi during their lifetime.
