About this property
Penrhyndeudraeth 2.5 miles. This double fronted cottage sits in the traditional village of Talsarnau, Gwynedd. Once a slate miners cottage, Hillside is now a beautiful sympathetically modernised cottage which successfully blends all the comforts required for modern living with the traditional features expected in a character property. Step directly into the dining room, the perfect spot to host family mealtimes, complemented by an electric fire for when the weather turns chilly. The lounge features an inglenook fireplace hosting a multi-fuel stove and Smart TV, creating a homely atmosphere for evening entertainment. Allow the house chef to become acquainted in the kitchen, offering a good range of base units and appliances, along with a traditional slate floor. The bedrooms at this Talsarnau cottage rest upstairs, offering two doubles and a twin, finished with wood panelling and plenty of storage space. To the rear there is a lovely totally enclosed, low maintenance raised sun terrace, ideal for alfresco dining, sunbathing and evening BBQ. This private area set on a slate outcrop has distant views over the rooftops to Portmeirion, the Dwyryd Estuary and mountain ranges, making it a lovely spot to unwind. The local area is extremely idyllic, with the nearby coastal path providing excellent strolling opportunities, or hop in the car and head to Harlech; famed for its imposing 13th century castle and range of eateries and shops, whilst its also popular with golfers due to the Royal St. David’s course being here. Make the most of the Snowdonia National Park, with Mount Snowdon offering a difficult but rewarding challenge, whilst there’s plenty of other adventure to be had at Zip World Ffestiniog. All this and much more awaits at Hillside.
The expansive community of Penrhyndeudraeth is home to a number of stores, eateries, a post office, and a train station that connects to the Ffestiniog Railway. The renowned, distinctive Italianate village of Portmeirion, which served as the setting for the television series The Prisoner, is only two miles away. It is encircled by sand beaches and alluring woodlands. A little farther on lies the harbour town of Porthmadog, from which you can take the Ffestiniog Railway to the slate town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, also known as "the town that roofed the world."
