About this property

Situated within the bustling North Wales village of Beddgelert, in the heart of Snowdonia National Park, is 5 Gwynant Street, a delightful stone cottage with plenty of curb appeal. Boasting incredible mountain views from its elevated terrace garden, this property is ideal for a couple or small family who want nothing more than to explore the magnificent national park and take advantage of the plethora of walking opportunities that surround the property. Make your way inside to discover a charming living/dining room, offering a mix of traditional and contemporary features, with slate tiled flooring and wooden beams, complimented by a leather sofa and Smart TV, so you can spend evenings snuggled up together enjoying a film as the warmth of the woodburning stove creates a cosy ambiance. The dining table provides a spot to enjoy meals together, lovingly prepared in the compact but well-equipped kitchen, that stands just three steps up from the dining area and looks out onto the rear of the property. Head outside through the stable door and up a set of steps to find the first of two terraces, while the impressive sun trap decking area rests above both and offers a seating area where you can kick back with a morning coffee and soak up the incredible mountain view whilst enjoying the tranquil sounds of wildlife inhabiting the private land that sits just behind. Back inside the property, make your way up the staircase to find the double bedroom, where you can catch up on rest and enjoy the distant mountain view from the sash window. A further three steps up leads to an immaculate twin bedroom that overlooks the garden and would be ideal for children, while both bedrooms are served by an all-white family bathroom suite. The village of Beddgelert boasts an impressive selection of shops for picking up any essential items, as well as gift shops, arts and crafts stores and ice cream parlours, plus a range of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and cafés, all idyllically situated beside the Afon Glaslyn. Take a stroll beside the river towards the National Trust's Aberglaslyn Nature Reserve and Aberglaslyn Pass, a stunning gorge thought to be one of the best beauty spots in North Wales. Be sure to pay a visit to Gelert's Grave, a statue and tombstone of the loyal hound of Prince Llewelyn the Great, which is very much the centrepiece of the village. Take advantage of your location at the foot of Mount Snowdon, Wales' highest peak, to embark upon a plethora of walking trails, including Watkin Path, the National Trust's Craflwyn and Beddgelert and the hiking area of Dinas Emrys, while a hike up Snowdon itself provides the ultimate challenge, along with the reward of breath-taking views from its summit. There are plenty of opportunities for cycling and mountain biking, should you prefer to explore your setting on two wheels, while the Welsh Highland Steam Railway allows you to enjoy the view from the comfort of a steam train, making its way through the centre of the village on its journey between Porthmadog and the royal town of Caernarfon, where you will find an impressive 13th century medieval castle resting on the waterfront. Just a short distance from Caernarfon is the Iron Age settlement of Dinas Dinlle, where you can spend a fantastic day beside the sea at its impressive Blue Flag-awarded beach. The Llyn Peninsula AONB is within driving distance and is a haven for walkers, wildlife lovers and watersports enthusiasts alike, who flock to this haven of natural beauty to be wowed by long stretches of coastline, rolling countryside and impressive Iron Age forts. 5 Gwynant Street is an incredible base for exploring the coast and countryside of North Wales.
