Sitting in a picturesque location on the edge of the Coed-y-Brenin Forest, this is the perfect spot for a rural holiday with family or friends. Enjoy wandering through the expansive grounds, watching the resident animals, including chickens and sheep. Mountain bikers will love the convenience of the trails at Coed-y-Brenin Forest, just 4 miles away by car, while walkers can make the most of the forest trails and awe-inspiring views. The town of Dolgellau is just 7 miles away, with its pubs, shops and restaurants. From there, you can begin a beautiful cycle trail along the estuary to Barmouth. The sand and shingle beach at Barmouth (15 miles) is perfect for bucket and spade days, or head for the unspoilt dunes of Harlech, backed by mountains and its iconic castle.

Lots of original beams give the place added character. The barn has been designed with an open-plan layout that leads from one room to the next.

Lovely cottage tucked well away. All things youd want to visit in N Wales are less than an hours drive away. We loved the setting and the nature around us, especially the bats and owls.

We had a lovely stay, the house is really well located, close to some great hills, lakes and riverside walks. The house was very comfortable and well equipped, and our hosts were very friendly and helpful.

We had a really lovely stay at the cottage, it is in a beautiful location surrounded by lovely views. The cottage was really cosy and warm, the log burner was really good, kept us lovely and warm, especially when it snowed. The bedrooms are lovely and comfy, the lounge as well, its a great base for exploring the area.

This is a beautiful property in a stunning location. You really don't have to drive anywhere as there are so many interesting walks on the doorstep. Stunning forest and river walks. The cottage is homely, well equipped and very comfortable. The hosts are kind and if you want information about the area they can point you to walks you may not know. BRead moreedrooms are warm and beds comfortable. We slept like logs. The kitchen is a very good size and became our central place during the day. Water comes straight from the hills and is delicious. The log burner is a bonus and we spent cosy evenings in front of it with our three very tired dogs. This property has a lovely atmosphere and if you love walking, nature and spending time with your dog companions, this place is a must. We were sad to leave. Hide
