Property code: OC-WAF267

Located within the majestic Snowdonia National Park, this cosy stone cottage offers a quintessentially Welsh experience in a truly glorious rural setting. You’ll have wonderful walking opportunities starting from your front door, such as the Llyn Celyn reservoir just half a mile away. When you’re worn out and weary, your very own hot tub awaits – ideal for alleviating all those post-hiking aches! With space for up to six guests over three bedrooms, it’s just right for a larger family or a group of friends, with one dog also welcome to join.

This 500-year-old dwelling is traditionally charming both inside and out, and has been beautifully updated to ensure your comfort. In the cosy lounge, you can rest those tired limbs and light the open fire on chilly nights, which is housed within an impressive stone fireplace. The farmhouse-style kitchen, with attractive wooden worktops and pale green units, has everything you’ll need for preparing yummy meals. These can be enjoyed with a glass of wine in the adjoining dining room, where there’s also a TV. Outside, you can lap up lake views in the gravel garden, which is furnished for those al fresco breakfasts on fine days. As you relax in the fresh air, let your ears be caressed by the trickle of the adjacent stream.

The cottage is a quiet countryside location 7 miles from the nearest pub and shop in Bala, an attractive market town. Bala Lake (7.5 miles) is a great spot for exploring on foot with your pet in tow, and you can also try water sports such as kayaking and paddle boarding. Blaenau Ffestiniog, known as the ‘Slate Capital of the World’, is 15 miles away.

We had a fabulous stay at Ty Nant. It was a picturesque cottage with everything we needed for a relaxed break away with the kids. We enjoyed the hot tub, walks and playing board games.
