There’s no need to scrimp on luxury when planning an outdoor-adventure-packed getaway in the Snowdonia National Park, this striking country cottage has been updated to the highest of standards and hosts up to six guests. If you’re eager to get away from it all then this is a place for you. The nearest built-up area is Trawsfynydd, a pretty village that’s 2 miles away. From here you can embark on boat trips or fishing excursions on the Llyn Trawsfynydd (1 mile), simply buy a permit from the lakeside café. Jump on your mountain bike to explore the area on two wheels, perhaps embracing the expert tracks at Coed-y-Brenin Forest Park (6.5 miles) or Antur Stiniog (13 miles). Alternatively, if you prefer to stick to hiking routes, the mountain peaks of Snowdon, Aran Fawddwy and Y Lliwedd are all within 25 miles.
Having worn yourself out with walks, bikes and all sorts of other adventures, head home to your meticulously updated 17th-century holiday home to relax in unrivalled comfort. Awash with neutral tones and quality furnishings, this three-bedroom property expertly pairs modern interiors with authentic original features. The ground floor is made up of an inviting lounge, versatile kitchen/diner and utility room, all of which boast stone-flagged flooring and pretty views from the windows. Get comfy in the lounge with the TV/DVD on and the wood burner blazing away and filling the space with some cosy ambience. Meals can be prepared, served up and cleared away in the kitchen/diner (complete with that all-important dishwasher), and you can use your handy utility space as additional storage for any outdoor equipment. When it’s time for bed, ascend the single staircase to find three first-floor bedrooms. Each room is equally attractive with sturdy furniture, soft linens and storage solutions. Rooms one and two feature double beds whilst the third bedroom is equipped with full-size bunk beds. Each bedroom is served by a shared family bathroom. Completing this floor is a generously proportioned games room with additional wood burner and seating. Experience one another’s competitive sides with games of pool or table tennis right here.
Landscaped with a similar attention to detail as featured inside, the garden space is an oh-so-relaxing place to spend time. Made up of both patio and lawn, the garden features a lawn for children to play on, a picnic bench for dining outdoors and a private hot tub.
