This idyllic 19th-century property is the perfect location for you to escape the humdrum of everyday life and get lost in the magic of this charming corner of Wales, all with your favourite four-legged friend at your side, of course. With fabulous footpaths and beaches at your fingertips, including 823 square miles within the national park, you’ll find a huge variety of walks that will take your breath away and keep your dog’s tail wagging with delight.

The quirky cottage still has many original features and the flagstone floors make cleaning up pawprints nice and easy. Natural light floods the lounge at the heart of this cottage, where you can snuggle up on the comfy sofa after a long walk and your canine chum can doze by the wood burner. To the front of the property, you can enjoy morning coffee on the bistro table and chairs.

There are plenty of walks directly from your doorstep, and the dog-friendly pebbled beach of Llwyngwril is less than half a mile away. This is a beautiful spot for a stroll in the early morning sunshine, taking in the stunning views of the surrounding mountainous countryside. If you and your hound fancy a challenge, why not spend a day climbing Cader Idris? It’s one of Snowdonia’s most popular mountains for walkers, as there are several routes to choose from and the summit offers magnificent views for miles. There is also a couple of great dog-friendly eateries convenient to the start of the paths. If it’s long sandy beaches you’re after, head to Aberdovey, just 11.5 miles away. Here you’ll find beautiful unspoilt scenery, plus some lovely independent shops and cafes. Although there are dog restrictions on part of the beach, there’s a fantastic dedicated area where woofers can run to their hearts’ content.

Y Bryn is a sweet little cottage which is set on the Wales Coast Path so really fantastic to walk from straight up the hill and onto the open fields, it's also an easy walk down through the village onto the beach. Llwyngwil is a pretty village and there is a train that stops there and runs from Machynlleth to Pwllheli so amazing if you don't want tRead moreo use the car. Yvonne was very friendly and lives in the village and she kindly left us Welsh cakes and a pint of milk. Hide
