Property code: OC-95142

Generously sized social spaces are complemented by a gorgeous, enclosed garden with spectacular mountain views at this four-bedroom, pet-friendly residence. Set in an elevated position within mature grounds, this single-storey property offers panoramic views from many of its rooms.

Step into the spacious living room and a large picture window frames a wonderful view of the surrounding hills; complete with comfortable seating, a wood burner-effect electric fire and Smart TV/DVD, this is where you can unwind in true home-from-home style. Close by, the farmhouse-style kitchen/diner is kitted out with all the self-catering essentials, as well as a large wooden dining table beside patio doors leading out to the garden. When bedtime nears, choose from four pretty rooms: a twin bedroom and a double bedroom enjoy views of Cadair Idris, while two further double bedrooms have plenty of storage space and one has a vanity unit for additional convenience. Two contemporary bathrooms – one with a shower and the other with a bath – complete the layout of this lovely holiday home. Patio doors bring the outside into the kitchen/diner, and lead onto a large patio with panoramic views and a fire pit. Beyond is an enclosed lawn area with plenty of mature trees and foliage so you and your dogs – two are welcome here – can stretch your legs.

The former slate town of Dolgellau (2 miles) is packed with more listed buildings than any other town in Wales, and has excellent eateries and shops to satisfy every taste. Indulge, then enjoy a walk along the Mawddach Trail to Barmouth (8 miles) where there’s a large sandy stretch of beach and all the traditional seaside attractions. Inland, Bala is 19 miles away. Famous internationally for events like white-water canoeing, swimming, cycling and triathlons, it’s a great location for walks too; if you’d prefer something less active, take a ride on the narrow-gauge Bala Lake Railway.

We enjoyed a very good week at Holly Bank. The bungalow is spacious, well maintained and spotlessly clean; the location is delightful and the grounds are beautiful. Communication with the owner was very good and her suggestion for Sunday Lunch, The Brigands, was excellent. With so many of us using SatNav I would like to see the directions to all cRead moreottages include the map reference / what3words to make life easier especially in more remote areas where postcodes con cover large areas. Minimal downsides but there were no instruction leaflets for any of the appliances / heating; no broom/mop (not all of us can get down on the floor with dustpan and brush) and departure by 9:30 is somewhat unrealistic for a family of up to eight persons.
