With its country cottage exterior and clean, contemporary interiors, this attractive property offers an inviting base for six guests in the tiny village of Brithdir. Featuring three comfortable bedrooms, far-reaching mountain views and an enclosed garden, it’s well suited to couples, friends or families seeking peaceful surroundings amid the dramatic landscapes of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.
Inside, the decor feels contemporary yet homely with a soft, calming palette and thoughtful touches that make it easy to switch off and relax. Walking gear can be tucked away in the useful boot/utility room before you head into the lounge where sofas, a Smart TV and a wood-burner-effect fire create a cosy space for film nights and post-walk chats. The sleek, contemporary kitchen/diner is thoughtfully equipped for easy self-catering with a breakfast bar for laidback coffees and quick bites. A step leads down to a conservatory-style dining room where you can linger over meals with the mountains as your backdrop. Upstairs are three gorgeous bedrooms with plush linens and country-style decor. Choose between a king-size with an en-suite shower room, and a twin and flexible super-king-size that share use of the family bathroom. Note that some of the upstairs has restricted head height due to sloping ceilings. Make the most of warm weather in the enclosed garden, which features a patio with outdoor furniture and a BBQ along with a covered seating area. Private parking for two cars adds convenience.
The traditional market town of Dolgellau (3.5 miles) has a wealth of historic buildings to explore, including Cymer Abbey (5 miles), and is a centre for traditional Welsh music and outdoor activities. Popular walking trails such as the Torrent Walk, the Mawddach Trail and the climb to the summit of Cader Idris are all within around 6.5 miles. Days at the coast beckon at Barmouth (13 miles).
