About this property

Resting within the traditional village of Penybontfawr in Powys, is Cwmwr, a stone-fronted, country-style cottage. Welcoming eight guests, the cottage enjoys a nature-filled setting enveloped by rolling hills and woodland, whilst offering both families and groups of friends a private hot tub, a contemporary living space, adorning A-framed beams, and an external games room, providing attractive features for a self-catered break. Park up on the gated driveway before entering Cwmwr, arriving at the farmhouse kitchen, featuring all expected amenities to ease your stay, along with a neighbouring dining room, complete with a lofty eight-seater table, enjoying views to the garden. If you'd prefer to dine alfresco, set the patio table as the hot tub warms up, before enjoying a soak as the sun sets. Retire to the homely sitting room for a film night, with the woodburning stove alight, or locate the games room for a night of entertainment. As sleep calls, select between four well-appointed bedrooms, including a super-king-size with en-suite, two twin bedrooms with zip/link features, and a ground-floor bunk, all serviced by a contemporary bathroom with an indulgent roll-top bath, and a ground-floor shower room. Awaken to vistas across the extensive fields before travelling towards Llyn Vyrnwy Dam and lake, offering the ideal setting for a leisurely walk. Those who enjoy the outdoors will also favour a visit to Pistyll Rhaeadr, enveloped by Berwyn Mountains, followed by a picnic upon Y Berwyn National Nature Reserve. Cwmwr is well-positioned to aboard Bala Lake Railway, or to explore Snowdonia National Park, before crossing the English border, with visits to Oswestry Town Museum, the Old Oswestry Hill Fort, and Chirk Castle. Make wonderful memories at Cwmwr.

The picturesque Berwyn Mountains, surrounding wooded hills, and valleys are where Penybontfawr, a traditional Welsh community, is located. The Revolution Mountain Bike Park is located near the beautiful strolling village of Llangynog, which is only 2.5 miles distant. Slate, lead, and silver mining in the region have a long history that dates to the 17th century. A mountain biking centre is located at Llandegla, and the area is now well known for climbing, birdwatching, walking, and cycling. The area also has renowned mountain bike routes close to Dolgellau. While Llangynog has two pubs and Penybontfawr village has one, both offer delicious meals and are ideal places to unwind after an action-packed day out.

    The beds were really comfy and the property was nice and clean. Only downfall was the showers - they were scorching hot and wouldn’t turn down.

  • Susan

    We loved our stay in Cwmwr it was a lovely big house with everything we needed we spent lots of time in the hot tub after a busy day out , Sarah was very accommodating and always made it clear she was on hand if we needed her

  • Kelly

    She couldn’t do enough for us and she was on hand anytime we needed her. We had a little issue with plumbing and her husband and Sarah sorted it with in a few hours. The house is amazing and we loved it for Christmas. It was big enough for us all and we never felt on top of each other. The games rooms is great fun and hot tub as well with the views it’s amazing. This was a wonderful Christmas for us to be with all the family and the home and was beautiful decorated as well on our arrival. This is definitely one of the beautiful holiday homes we have stayed in and we will be back. Thank you to Sarah and her family. But most of all thank you Sarah for all the advise before our arrival to make sure our Christmas was perfect. Xx
