Overview
Property code: OC-93645

A charming stone cottage set in beautiful countryside just 2 miles from Machynlleth, one of many thriving market towns on the edge of Snowdonia National Park. The dog-friendly cottage features a cosy lounge, a spacious kitchen/diner and an enclosed garden. Enjoying easy access to Pumlumon Mountain, it is the ideal base for an active holiday in idyllic surroundings.

The two-storey holiday let sits in a secluded area accessed via a long farm track that cuts through dense woodland surrounded by streams and mountains. The cottage's interior is bright and airy, with quirky soft furnishings scattered about bright and welcoming rooms. The cosy lounge is a fantastic place to unwind, and the kitchen/diner has everything a family or group of friends could need for creating an indulgent meal after a long day exploring the local area. Upstairs, the attractive king-size bedroom and twin bedroom offer wonderful views and a restful night's sleep, with a leisurely start to the new day coming courtesy of a soak in the spacious bathroom. The enclosed garden and surrounding grounds offer an instant flavour of the area's rugged beauty, with fabulous views and opportunities for al fresco dining.

The rugged countryside surrounding the cottage, just like Snowdonia National Park (5 miles), is a mecca for dog walkers, with umpteen wooded, riverside and mountain trails to explore. Machynlleth (2 miles) offers numerous dog-friendly pubs, eateries and further footpaths, while Pumlumon Mountain and Glyndwr's Way are within 10 miles. Aberdovey has a dog-friendly beach and the neighbouring estuary is a fantastic place to wander while reconnecting with nature.

Fabulous week, great location. Track up to accommodation is very bumpy but they were working on filling in the holes while we were there and that made a big difference. Walks from the front door are amazing, you can literally walk for miles in pure peace with fantastic views. Joe is a very helpful and lovely host.

From the moment we arrived and started hearing cuckoos we knew we had found somewhere special. The cottage was warm and welcoming and is in a spectacular location with an abundance of bird species.

Tucked away in a quiet fold of the countryside, the cottage is the kind of place that makes you "slow down" the moment you arrive. Inside everything is thoughtfully laid out: small but comfy sofas, a crackling wood burner. The kitchen has all the essentials you need for cooking and dining, no fuss. Beds are comfy and the only thing you will hear atRead more night is the stream flowing. It's not flashy. It's not fussy, it's a great place to get away from the race and slow down. Hide

If you want rural,this is the place. There is a long bump track along the hillside to get to it but once your there its in a lovely little small setting. Cottage is comfortable and most things are provided. A little TLC is needed as a little tired but overall pleasant. Fantastic honey from the man at the bottom of the track. You do have neighbours.Read more However, we were lucky enough to have a lovely family next door. The stream is there but not easily accessed. Hide

In a great rural situation, this reasonably comfortable property, is well insulated, with easy heating controls. We never saw the owners, but they were helpful via WhatsApp, when we twice needed to contact them. The online information is misleading, as the property is not 2miles from Machynlleth, but 4 miles, 3 on very narrow, winding single track Read moreroads and the last mile extremely rough and unsurfaced. Some of the furniture is looking old and a bit tatty. The kitchen could be better equipped. Hide
