Located on the river Mawddach, this delightful, detached farmhouse makes a wonderful holiday home for all the family. Situated in a valley below the famous Precipice Walk, and with the Mawddach River running past, with private access to the river and trout fishing (free of charge, in season), there are stunning views all around. Inside you will find a large living room with wood burner, two TVs with access to BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub and Netflix, and a seating area at each end. This room leads out into the spacious lawned garden, ideal for lazing in with a glass of wine or dining al fresco. The modern dining room features a warming wood burner and offers fantastic views of the surrounding hills from the picture windows.
The property is located in ideal walking country, near the Coed y Brenin Forest Centre. The Precipice Walk is a must for the far-reaching views. Visit the pretty town of Dolgellau, with a range of individual shops and delightful cafés and eateries. You can hire a bike or walk along the Mawddach Trail, which follows the trackbed of the old railway line to Barmouth, giving unique views of the Mawddach Estuary and the famous Barmouth Bridge. At Barmouth you’ll find an enormous sandy beach, so don’t forget to take your bucket and spade. No visit to North Wales would be complete without a ride on one of the Great Little Trains of Wales, and at Dol y Clochydd, you’re within easy reach of the Talyllyn Railway at Tywyn, the Bala Lake Railway at Llanuwchllyn and the Ffestiniog Railway which runs between Porthmadog and Blaenau Ffestiniog. Blaenau Ffestiniog is also home to Zip World Titan, the largest zip wire zone in the world, and Bounce Below, the only place in the world where you can bounce on trampoline nets deep underground in an old slate cavern. Beach 10 miles. Shop and pub 3½ miles, restaurant 3 miles.

Many thanks to the owners for that beautiful property.
Many thanks to the owners for that beautiful property. Cannot say enough great things about this place. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable and we felt safe in the house. The house is well equipped and has everything for a family or friends to stay and enjoy. Location is great, views are amazing, exceptional views of the cottage from Precipice walk. The weather was not very kind to us but there is no better place to be stuck indoors on a rainy day and log burner kept us cosy. The only downside is to check out at 10 AM on Sunday. Will highly recommend it to everyone and wish to return here again and again. Thank you for the bottle of wine and Wales cheese.
