Take the scenic route out of Porthmadog (5 miles) and up to this remote country cottage, a fabulous destination property surrounded by never-ending Cwmystradllyn scenery. Separate from the rest of the world and promising peace and relaxation in rural surroundings, this holiday home hosts eight guests and is made for your next family getaway. Young ones will adore playing in the games room or taking a dip in the hot tub come rain or shine, whilst guests of all ages will adore the suntrap balcony with never-ending views out into the depths of the valleys.
At the heart of this house sits a sociable kitchen/diner on the ground floor, complete with an authentic farmhouse range, space for everyone to sit around at mealtimes and French doors inviting you into the grassy garden space with outdoor furniture. Having dined together either indoors or out, retire to the next-door lounge where cushy sofas are positioned around a Smart TV and a wood burner. These elements combine to create the cosiest spot for evenings in, especially on nights when the weather outside is blustery and cold. Let your muscles rest in the warm embrace of the fire before heading off to bed, finding all four beautiful bedrooms upstairs.
Perched on the brink of the Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog offers an appealing holiday base with a vibrant harbour and the chance to take two heritage railway lines on scenic tours through the countryside. For a trip to the beach, venture a little further to Black Rock Sands (7 miles), a beloved destination boasting miles of sand, dunes and rock pools. Heading back inland, discover stunning beauty spots in the wooded nature reserve of Ceunant Llennyrch (11.5 miles) or at Bywyd Gwyllt Glaslyn (4 miles), home of the Glaslyn osprey.
