About this property
Set within 300 acres of working farmland at the foot of Cadair Idris, this splendid period farmhouse offers families and groups of friends an idyllic escape in the Snowdonia/Eryri National Park. Surrounded by nature, this dog-friendly property is a sanctuary for outdoor enthusiasts with lush farmland, an ancient Celtic rainforest and swimming lake on the grounds, and rugged trails leading to the summit of Cadair Idris. Its secluded location combined with the charming farmhouse and panoramic country views make this the perfect base for those seeking tranquillity and adventure.
Arranged over two storeys, this lovingly restored farmhouse has a warm, rustic ambience that blends original character with contemporary comfort. The entrance hallway, with its beautiful flagstone flooring and exposed stonework, sets the tone for the rest of the home. The atmospheric lounge is ideal for relaxation, featuring gorgeous beams and a roaring wood burner in the feature fireplace. With a large gas range and plenty of workspace, the country-style kitchen is a delight for cooks, while the characterful dining room provides the perfect settling for memorable meals while planning the following day’s escapades. Upstairs, four inviting bedrooms offer peaceful nights and unspoilt views. Choose between two king-size both with en-suites and two doubles which share use of the family shower room. Surrounded by farmland and wildlife, the enclosed garden is a haven of tranquillity, offering al-fresco dining amid the sounds of the countryside and nearby stream. The vast grounds invite exploration, from the Celtic rainforest to the lake, and there’s private parking for four cars.
