Property code: OC-G32336

Holiday in luxury with up to seven others – family or friends – but also up to four furry friends in this beautifully restored farmhouse. It’s ideal for any dog-loving extended families or friendship groups keen to spend time together and explore Snowdonia National Park (Eryri).

This picture postcard stone house is as stunning inside as it looks from the outside. As befits a former farmhouse, the kitchen is sure to be a gathering point, with its contemporary good looks and all mod cons; sit at the island or on the quaint window seat to chat or plan over a cup or glass of something. Space shouldn’t be a problem as there’s a super comfortable lounge and a cosier snug if groups have different interests or anyone fancies some downtime. The decor throughout is neutral with occasional bold pops of colour or design, while furnishings are sleek giving it a sophisticated – and calming – feel. Watch any dogs and kids have a ball on the generous lawn as you enjoy a drink or a BBQ on the furnished terrace or a soak in the hot tub. Parking is no problem for four cars.

Set in the tranquil Bryncrug village, this detached stone property has wonderful views of the rolling, green landscape of this part of the national park. The seaside town of Tywyn is 3 miles away; with miles of golden sands, it is perfect to let off some steam or just sit and gaze out to sea. It’s dog-friendly in parts all year, just check for seasonal restrictions during your visit. Afterwards, you can catch a steam train from there on the historic Tal-y-Llyn Steam Railway, originally built in 1866 to carry slate, but now a tourist delight traversing the unspoilt landscape. Well-behaved dogs can even travel on their own ‘rover’ ticket!

We had a fantastic family stay at Glanrafon in Bryncrug, Wales. The property comfortably accommodated our group of 8 adults, 3 babies, and 3 dogs without ever feeling crowded. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how beautifully presented and immaculately clean everything was. The welcome pack was a lovely touch, with fresh eggs, cake,Read more and other thoughtful goodies waiting for us. The house information was clear and easy to follow, making settling in completely hassle-free. The property is finished to a very high standard, with stylish modern dcor throughout, comfortable furnishings, spotless bedding, and plenty of clean towels provided. It really feels like a luxury home away from home. The large garden was perfect for both the children and dogs to enjoy safely, and the hot tub was an absolute highlight, especially after a day exploring the beautiful Welsh countryside Every aspect of the property was extremely well maintained, and it was clear that a great deal of care goes into keeping it in such excellent condition. We would highly recommend Glanrafon to anyone looking for a spacious, high-quality holiday home for larger family gatherings or group getaways. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to return. Thank you for a wonderful weekend! Hide

We loved our week in the cottage and would highly recommend it. Firstly, the outside... a lovely large, enclosed garden that was great for the dogs to run around, and lovely for us to sit in too, with superb views of the hills and countryside. The cottage itself is large and spacious and has recently been renovated to a very high standard. It is veRead morery well furnished, and the owners had thought of pretty much everything we'd need... from a coffee machine to dishwasher, plenty of plates and glasses (which we don't always get in holiday cottages), good wifi, excellent showers with good water pressure, wine fridge, etc. The local pub is just about a 20-minute walk from the cottage and offers good pub grub at a reasonable price - and it's dog-friendly too. All in all, we had a superb week in the cottage and would love to return again soon. Hide
