3 Bed Cottage in Cwm Penmachno

About this property

Surround yourselves with the beauty of Eryri (Snowdonia) with a group stay in this gorgeous stone cottage set in the heart of the National Park. Sleeping up to six guests across three bedrooms, this riverside property is ideal for hikers, cyclists and fellow outdoor enthusiasts, with the Slate Trail passing right by the property and Snowdonia itself just 18 miles away. The village of Betws-y-coed (7.6 miles) plays host to a variety of pubs, restaurants and a selection of shops, ideal for meals out or picking up local produce. For days of outdoor adventure, particularly on two wheels, the forestry tracks at Penmachno Mountain Bike Trails (2.5 miles) offer something for all ages. For those who prefer exploring on two feet, the dramatic waterfalls of Conwy (5.5) always impress, as do the tree-top courses at Zip World Betws-y-Coed (8.5 miles). For a day by the sea, the coastline is just 20 miles away – beautiful beaches include Harlech, Morfa Bychan, and Llandanwg.

Before stepping into this welcoming Welsh base, take a moment to appreciate its stunning position surrounded by rivers and mountains. Kick off muddy walking boots in the entrance and be greeted by the property’s social heart, the farmhouse-style living space that combines the lounge, kitchen and dining areas into one warming space. Settle in the lounge after days of outdoor adventure; fire up the wood burner, flick on the TV or open your holiday read. When stomachs rumble, the rural-inspired kitchen boasts everything needed for cooking up Welsh feasts, which can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar if numbers are low, or at the dining table by the window for more formal affairs. At the end of each busy day away, head up to the first floor and choose from three restful bedrooms: a master king-size room, a pretty double, and a bunk room perfect for little ones. Serving the bedrooms and completing the interior is a well-appointed family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Make the most of the incredible national park vistas outside, where a scenic rear garden is enclosed for children and pets to play safely. Enjoy morning brews and evening tipples at the furnished patio, and gather at the outdoor table and chairs for unforgettable al fresco meals using the charcoal BBQ. There is private parking for one car, roadside parking also available nearby.
