Set on 300 acres of working farmland in the foothills of Cadair Idris, this fabulous period farmhouse is ideal for families and friends craving an idyllic retreat exploring the great outdoors in Snowdonia/Eryri National Park. This secluded spot in Snowdonia is a playground for eager outdoor explorers. A variety of tracks and trails await discovery on foot or by bike, starting at the doorstep, ranging from strolls through the surrounding farmland and 40-acre Celtic rainforest to the challenge of climbing to the summit of Cadair Idris. The picturesque town of Dolgellau, situated 7 miles away, boasts more listed buildings than any other town in Wales, along with numerous restaurants, cafes, shops, and pubs to enjoy. The world-renowned Coed y Brenin Mountain Biking Centre, as well as the beautifully sandy beaches at Fairbourne and Barmouth, can be reached within 15 miles. The traditional ambience of the stonework exterior carries through to the interior of this lovingly furnished farmhouse, with the welcoming entrance hallway boasting charming rustic touches, including beautiful flagstone flooring. Brimming with original features such as stunning exposed stonework walls and gorgeous beams, the homely lounge boasts a truly cosy atmosphere; the roaring wood burner housed inside the feature fireplace sets the scene for pure relaxation. The contemporary country cottage-style kitchen will capture your imagination, inspiring you to get creative with delicious local flavours. Reminiscent of times gone by and featuring more wonderful original touches, the spacious dining room provides the perfect spot to gather at the end of a busy day and plan tomorrow’s adventure. Sharing the same charm and character as the ground floor, the two en-suite king-size bedrooms and two double bedrooms offer wonderfully unspoilt views to wake up to. There is also a shower room on this floor for a leisurely start to the day. From sunrise to sunset, the enclosed garden set within 300 acres of working farmland, with far-reaching countryside views, is a haven of tranquillity. Enjoy dining alfresco amidst the soothing sounds of the stream and resident wildlife or discover the surrounding grounds by exploring the Celtic rainforest, walking up to the lake for a spot of wild swimming, or joining the footpath that leads to the summit of Cadair Idris. There is private parking for four cars at the property.
