This beautiful barn conversion set on a hillside at the edge of the Coed-y-Brenin Forest, between Dolgellau and Trawsfynydd is perfect for a family or a group of friends looking for a tranquil holiday hideaway. The property is situated on the owners’ smallholding, with chickens, ducks, sheep, and pigs in the surrounding fields. The property enjoys lovely views over Snowdonia’s forested hills and mountains.

Step into this characterful two-storey property and discover a country style and many charming features, including exposed beams. On the ground floor is a kitchen/diner area with all the appliances you need to prepare some memorable meals to share. There are also a shower room and two bedrooms on this floor - a double and a king-size with en-suite. From the kitchen/diner, take a short flight of stairs to the landing area and a few stairs up to the spacious lounge with oak flooring, leather sofas and a TV, making this a lovely social space. From the landing area, there are a few steps up to the remaining bedrooms, each with a single bed and upper cabin bunk. Outside is an enclosed patio area to the front with garden furniture. The shared grounds offer lawned areas, a pond and picnic benches (children should be supervised outside the enclosed patio area).

Coed-y-Brenin Forestry Visitor Centre is just 1 mile away, where you can enjoy the mountain bike trails, family walks and an all-ability play area. There are also walks to Pistyll y Cain and Rhaeadr Mawddach waterfalls, South Snowdonia National Trust Nature Reserve (3 miles) and cycle routes from the door. If you fancy a day at the beach, head to Barmouth (14 miles), where you can access the Mawddach Trail. Porthmadog (19 miles) is well worth a visit to see the harbour and learn about its rich maritime history.

Maesgwm Barn is a lovely property in a fantastic setting. Amazing to wake up to beautiful views every morning. Great to be so near the forest too. The house is well equipped and clean and the owners are friendly and helpful. Planning on returning!!
