Endless Fairytale in Snowdonia, Gwynedd

Endless Fairytale Self-Catering

This incredible cottage located on its own grounds, surrounded by the hills and mountains of Snowdonia National Park, is a treat. With natural scenery spanning for miles either side, this a fantastic choice for those looking for privacy, tranquility, and nature.

Being made of traditional stone brick with such rural surroundings, you might not expect the interior of this home to be so sleek and contemporary. It was recently renovated, blending modern comforts with country life. The vaulted ceiling complete with rustic wooden beams add a touch of traditional charm, and we love how open and sociable the space is. But really, our favourite bit is the view you're treated to through the brightening patio doors and windows. So, whether you're eating breakfast around the table or preparing meals in the kitchen, you never have to miss out on the scenery that makes this home so special.

Being in Snowdonia National Park, you're not short of hiking trails. And if you're feeling adventurous, you're just a twenty-minute drive from Wales' second-largest mountain, Cader Idris. If you want to explore towns and villages of the North Wales coast, you're in the right place – Fairbourne is just a fifteen-minute drive away, a small but charming seaside village, where you can hop on a water taxi or steam train to the bustling seaside town of Barmouth.

However you spend the day, you'll love coming home to your cosy cottage. Wrap up and sip downers out on the patio, taking in the breathtaking sunset with panoramic views of the rolling hills and mountains. If it gets too chilly, warm yourself up by the fireplace with a nice glass of red wine, before tucking into a family feast around the dining table.
