A Scenic Working Farm Escape Between Snowdonia’s Peaks and the Mawddach Estuary

Set on a peaceful working farm directly at the base of Cadair Idris, this character stone holiday cottage offers a idyllic rural retreat for couples, small families, walkers, and nature lovers. Combining historic farmstead charm with modern comforts, the property provides direct access to mountain hiking trails, tranquil upland lakes, and scenic countryside paths. Perfectly positioned between the historic market town of Dolgellau and the coastal seaside shores of Barmouth, it serves as an unbeatable base for exploring Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.

Vaulted Beamed Living Space & Dual En-Suite Comforts

Inside, the cottage retains its authentic architectural heritage while offering a light, airy, and cozy living environment across two floors:

  • Open-Plan Living & Dining: Features dramatic high-vaulted beamed ceilings, a warming log burner, plush seating, and wide French windows that flood the room with natural light and open onto the garden.

  • Fully Equipped Farmhouse Kitchen: Includes a practical culinary layout complete with contemporary appliances and a family dining table with seating for four.

  • Two En-Suite Bedrooms: Upstairs, original timber beams crown two beautifully decorated bedrooms—a romantic primary double room and a bright twin room with a large feature window. Both bedrooms feature private en-suite bathrooms styled with luxurious gold fixtures and modern tiling.

  • Private Garden, Patio & Mountain Vistas

  • Panoramic Outdoor Space: Step out through the French doors onto a private patio and lawned garden area, where you can take in far-reaching views of Cadair Idris and the surrounding farmland.

  • Direct Trail Access: Walk directly from your doorstep onto private farm paths, mountain routes up Cadair Idris, or gentle strolls surrounding nearby lakes and woodlands.

  • Explore Barmouth, Dolgellau & Eryri (Snowdonia)

  • Historic Dolgellau (2 miles): Drive just two miles into the charming stone-built town of Dolgellau to enjoy artisan bakeries, cozy cafes, traditional Welsh pubs, independent shops, and seasonal local events.

  • The Mawddach Way & Barmouth Coast: Join the iconic Mawddach Trail from Dolgellau for a scenic 9.5-mile walk or cycle along the estuary straight into the coastal resort of Barmouth, famous for its sandy beach, historic railway bridge, and harbor.

  • Outdoor Adventures: Explore nearby hiking trails, mountain biking routes at Coed y Brenin Forest Park, or watersports along Cardigan Bay.
