This handsome barn conversion stands 5 miles from the town of Bala, a gateway town to Snowdonia National Park. Bursting with rural character, the family-friendly barn offers warm, inviting interiors, and a generous allocation of outdoor space perfect for youngsters and dogs, all within close proximity to attractions that scream adventure.
The two-storey barn stands within wooded hillsides and undulating farmland, the perfect complement to its authentic stable doors, quality wooden beams and locally-sourced slate flooring. The interior has a fresh and modern feel, with each room offering the same welcoming atmosphere. Cooks can unleash their creative side in the modern kitchen/diner, with the comfy lounge only a few paw prints beyond. A solid oak staircase leads to the first floor, where guests can choose from two bedrooms: a generously-proportioned en-suite double bedroom with antique furniture; and a twin bedroom nestling under the eaves. Both stand alongside a bathroom. The dog can explore the private enclosed garden while guests enjoy a summer BBQ on the lawn or patio area.
Bala (5 miles) is home to several dog-friendly pubs and eateries. It is close to Llyn Tegid, Wales’ largest natural lake (6 miles), which offers an impressive array of water sports as well as scenic biking and walking routes around its border. The lake is at the eastern end of Snowdonia National Park, which offers a bounty of mountains and hills just waiting to be explored. Dogs can also get their steps in following the Clwydian Way or the North Berwyn Way, both of which can be joined up at Corwen (6.5 miles).
