Send days admiring your surroundings from your enclosed garden and getting warm in front of the wood burner at this rural spot.

Hang up your coats and dog leads by the front door and head into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. A wood burner set in an exposed stone fireplace is the centrepiece of the room, while the large window provides remarkable views. Cook up delicious dinners in the kitchen, enjoy a meal together at the dining table, and reflect on the day’s events on the comfortable sofas. Let sleeping dogs lie and climb the stairs where you will find the two well-appointed and welcoming bedrooms. A double bedroom and a bunk bed room, both of which have great window views to wake up to. Completing the interior is a family shower room. Have a ball outside in the enclosed garden, which has mountain views and plenty of al fresco dining space.

A fantastic stay in a fantastic cottage. The property was lovely and cosy, and perfectly placed for exploring Eryri. The kitchen was very well equipped, which was great for cooking. We especially enjoyed sitting in the garden after a day of adventures, enjoying a tipple and a game of scrabble.
