  • Admire some of Eryri - Snowdonia’s best scenery from your own private hot tub
  • Eco-conscious barn conversion with solar panels and a ground-source heat pump
  • Accommodating all of the family with triple bedroom that’s perfect for kids
Property code: OC-WAG569

This spacious holiday home sits on the north-west edge of Eryri - Snowdonia National Park, providing easy access to both the mountains and the coast. The property sleeps seven guests and is perfect for large families and groups of friends, with good social spaces and a seven-seater hot tub. You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to nearby walks, and the Lon Las cycle route is just 500 metres away. For adrenaline-seekers, a trip to Zip World at Penrhyn Quarry (1.5 miles) is a must.

The detached barn conversion has a homely feel, with beautiful soft furnishings and accessories making your stay as comfortable as possible. The decor is neutral and almost every window frames a stunning mountain view. On the ground floor, you’ll find a bright lounge/diner, where you can gather for family mealtimes and sink into the sumptuous sofas to watch the Sky TV/DVD. From here, wander into the sunny conservatory, which is the perfect place to relax with a coffee and take in your spectacular location. A small kitchen is also on the ground floor, along with a double bedroom with its own shower cubicle. The two remaining bedrooms are upstairs; there’s a double with an en-suite shower room and a triple room with three single beds. A family bathroom completes the accommodation. The outside area is impressive, comprising a  lawn, patio area for al fresco dining, and an indulgent seven-seater hot tub.

Those with their sights set on Yr Wyddfa - Snowdon can head to Llanberis (8 miles), where walking routes to the summit begin, as well as the mountain railway. Beautiful Lake Padarn (7.5 miles) offers some less energetic walking opportunities, and is also a lovely spot for paddleboarding, canoeing, and wild swimming. Further afield, the historic towns of Conwy and Caernarfon are within 17 miles.

The cottage is lovely, with fantastic views out the back. Layout us well thought through with the downstairs bedroom, stairs and 1st floor bedrooms separate to the kitchen and living areas. Plenty of space and we'll equipped. Some family games and some dvds for evening entertainment if you wanted it. A welcome back of welsh baked goods, tea coffRead moreee and milk was very much appreciated after our long journey. The cottage was ideally situated for exploring the area around Mount Snowdon. A local Tesco express in the village was handy for essentials, with larger supermarket choices in Bangor. For the nature lovers there was plenty of bird life to watch and we were frequently serenaded by a pair of Tawny Owls in the early evenings. We spent many an hour watching the light change over the mountains, it was very beautiful. Hide

Appreciated the welcome pack, thank you. The views and location of the property are the strong points. It is ideal for visiting Anglesey, Snowdonia and N. Wales coast. The hot tub was enjoyed by all. We made good use of the BBQ as the weather was very kind to us. Love visiting Wales and will no doubt return to another region in the future.

Absolutely loved it here. Views were stunning, many evenings spent watching the sun go down over the mountains in conservatory. Very well laid out, there were 7 of us staying and we could all find space to ourselves if required. The lady that owns the house is just lovely. Would highly recommend this place.

Your administration was good and comprehensive. The owner of Ty Gwair takes great pride to include information and maps of the locality. As we were visiting with a car/trailer the parking provision was excellent and exactly what we expected when we booked. The conservatory's 180 degree mountain view is excellent for a visitor from flat country. IfRead more there is a minor criticism it is that the kitchen is a little dark (bulbs like those in the two standards in the living room would correct this). We would also have appreciated a small foldable table and chairs for two in the conservatory to have breakfast with the view. Night ventilation/security could be better for the ground floor bedroom where only a full opening door is available. Hide
