Photos and Description of this Gwynedd - Snowdonia holiday chateau / country house Snowdonia National Park; overlooking Cardigan bay; sleeps 11 plus baby ( cot )

This very spacious and comfortable old country house (Grade II listed) is set in 5 acres of grounds and enjoys stunning sea and mountain views from its fabulous elevated position directly above Cardigan Bay - stretching northwards to the Llyn Peninsula and south to Aberystwyth and beyond. With early 17th century origins, the property (originally a farm) is set in its own large grounds and charming gardens. Approximately 800m from the nearest beach at Tonfanau - away from the main tourist beaches along the coast - where you are likely to have only a few sea birds or the occasional dolphin for company! Magnificent sunsets and beautiful starry skies are regular features. The property is situated at the southern end of Snowdonia National Park, with the Cader Idris mountain range just a few miles away. A perfect retreat from the modern world; come and enjoy, and leave with memories to last a lifetime! PLEASE note, we do not take pets.

Situated in the beautiful Snowdonia National Park, just a few miles from Cader Idris and the Tal-y-llyn Railway (one of the first preserved narrow gauge steam lines in Wales). Nearby, Dolgoch Falls never fails to impress for a splendid walk. Only 11 miles from the pretty former fishing village of Aberdovey with its wonderful sand dune-backed beaches and the famous Aberdovey Golf Club. The market town of Machynlleth is half an hour's drive away, or you could take a short walk down to the 'request' stop for the Cambrian Coast Railway and enjoy a scenic coastal train ride there, or head north to Portmeirion and Porthmadog. The Center for Alternative Technology and the magnificent mountain setting of the Corris Craft Centre provide a great day out, with a stop on the way back at Tal-y-llyn lake for a drink at the lakeside hostelry! Some of the finest mountain biking in the UK can be had at Coed y Brenin, near Dolgellau, with waymarked technical trails and a newly opened family route.

Rating
5 out of 5

Absolutely Fabulous!

AdG UK
Review Submitted: July 24, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2008
Probably the best house we have ever stayed in, meeting the needs of a wide age range (3yrs to 79yrs). Plenty to do around the house - volleyball, snooker, tabletennis, big garden - for children and adults alike.
