Beautiful and Historic Grade II* Town House in the Centre of Dolgellau

Tan Y Fynwent is a seventeenth century town house, set back from St Mary’s Church in the centre of the pretty market town of Dolgellau. It blends the antique (beams, slate floors, listed oak staircase) with the modern (recently refurbished kitchen and laundry/shower room). Local amenities and restaurants are within walking distance of the property. Sandy beaches, mountain hikes, horse riding, biking at Coed Y Brenin, Cadair Idris, Harlech Castle and the glories of the Snowdonia National Park are all short car journeys away.

The accommodation is arranged over four floors in this substantial house.

On the ground floor, there is a recently installed spacious kitchen with oven, gas hobs, dishwasher, fridge, microwave and large pine dining room table and chairs. There is a living room with two sofas, antique pine settle and cwpwrdd deuddarn, as well as wood-burning stove.

On the lower ground floor, there is a laundry/shower room, with freestanding shower unit, toilet, washing machine, clothes horses, iron and ironing board. The pretty back garden has an outside clothes drier.

On the first floor, there is a master bedroom with Victorian brass double bed, covered with a capacious Welsh blanket. There is a second bedroom with twin beds and matching Welsh blankets, suitable for children/young adults. There is a family bathroom, with bath, toilet and free-standing shower unit.

The first floor has two further large bedrooms. One contains a double bed, the second contains a single bed and an abundance of toys. There is also a cot for use of guests (prior arrangement).

There is a beautiful front garden, with grassed lawns, trees and a path to a lattice work wooden portico, which is characteristic of the older properties in Dolgellau.

No pets, unless by prior arrangement. No smoking inside the property. Bed linen and towels are provided.

There is off-road parking in front of the garage of Tan Y Fynwent that is accessible via a narrow lane to the side of the property. There is free parking available at the long stay car park at the Marian (about 4 minutes walk from the property). The voucher for use of the long stay car park must be returned at the end of the stay. There is also free on-street parking to the side of the property on Baker Street and behind the property on Lombard Street.

There is a damage deposit for this property.

The property is only available in Spring, Summer & Autumn for (minimum) weekly bookings, arrival on Saturday/Sunday after 3.00 pm, departure the following Saturday/Sunday before 10.00 am. This is to allow the house to be cleaned thoroughly between guests.

Grade II* buildings are particularly important buildings of more than special interest; only 5.8% of listed buildings are Grade II*. The property contains historic features such as an ancient oak staircase, wooden panelling and ceiling plasterwork.
