  • Secluded countryside bungalow with stunning valley views
  • Set inside beautiful Snowdonia National Park, this is the perfect base for rambling and hiking
  • Outdoor children play wooden tree den
Property code: OC-23385

Sat in the bottom of the Dysynni Valley and just 4.5 miles from the foot of Cadair Idris, this remote hideout is perfect for dog-owning, adventure-seeking families or friendship groups. Surrounded by miles of public footpaths and offering spacious living areas, multiple-aspect views and versatile bedroom sizes, if you and your people are passionate about a broad range of activities on land and water then welcome home.

This traditionally styled bungalow packs an astonishing amount into a single storey, with each room enjoying a comfortable ambience that is enhanced by the natural light pouring in from every direction. The main lounge enjoys stunning views of the rugged landscape that rises up towards Craig yr Aderyn (Bird’s Rock) and there are equally resplendent views from the dining room and contemporary kitchen, which leads to a handy utility room. The bungalow’s spacious family bathroom stands close to four bedrooms: an en-suite super-king-size bedroom; a double bedroom which can be converted to a twin; a second double bedroom and a family bedroom which leads to a single bedroom, an ideal space for families. The landscape surrounding the bungalow looks even more impressive from the tastefully appointed lawn garden, an enclosed space suitable for al fresco lounging, BBQs, hot tub (at an additional cost - payable directly to owner) or just a place to relax as the children explore the play area with excitable dogs calling the shots.

Ardent walkers will love the maze of footpaths which stretch out from the bungalow, with the views atop Craig yr Aderyn and Cadair Idris, as well as around Castell y Bere, Dolgoch Falls, and Talyllyn Lake (all within 5 miles) all worth the effort. Dogs are welcome to enjoy the scenic route taken by engines on the Talyllyn Railway (2 miles), while water sports lovers will be in their element in the picturesque coastal village of Aberdyfi (13 miles).

Absolute home from home. Has everything you could need plus plenty extras courtesy of the owners (ie toiletries) and there is loads of space. Unlike many properties, windows have blinds and curtains which do well to keep the sun out in the early hours. Owners were really helpful and easily reachable. Access is a small issue due to the lengthyRead more single track roads, and if many cars are being driven down, it is a bit of a squeeze to get them all on the drive and track outside, but its doable with caution.

A disappointing stay unfortunately as there was mould in the bedrooms and bathrooms. We had an ant infestation both inside and outside the property. The dishwasher did not work and leaked over the entire utility /kitchen floor. We did receive a nice welcome pack of welsh biscuits and tea / coffee which was a lovely touch. The bathrooms also had Read moresoaps, shampoo and shower gel available. Its a shame because with just a few touch ups this could be a very nice property. The location is beautiful and cannot be faulted. We enjoyed our stay simply for that reason alone. The weather was on our side so we were able to go on walks and use the garden daily. Hide
