Enjoy a secluded getaway in the heart of North Wales with this charming traditional cottage located on an estate. The estate is a beautiful agricultural property that features miles of private, wooded paths for guests to explore and enjoy. The cottage has been carefully renovated to retain its country charm while adding modern touches of comfort throughout. The living area contains two comfortable sofas snuggled around a wood burning stove, while the large and light kitchen is a good place to relax too, with its oak floor and large range oven and hob. The elevated position of the cottage offers panoramic views over to the Carneddau mountains, which you can enjoy from the southerly facing terrace that overlooks the fields and forests below. The property sleeps four guests across two bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms. Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome, and there are parking spaces for three cars.

Little Wren

This holiday rental is a beautifully converted barn that offers guests a peaceful retreat in the Welsh countryside. Set high above the Conwy Valley, the property boasts stunning views across to Snowdonia and is one of 10 luxury self-catering cottages on and estate. With plenty of acres of woods and farmland to explore, this property is perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in nature. The attractively renovated cottage has four bedrooms and can accommodate up to seven guests. There are two en-suite shower rooms, a ground-floor family bathroom, and an enclosed garden with two terraces. Beyond the garden are over 20km of private paths through woods and farmland. Other unique features include a hand-crafted staircase leading up to the split-level ground floor and a wood-burning stove. Guests can also take advantage of fishing permits available at Bodnant Garden Centre, as well as a 10% discount at the centre's shop. The property is within easy reach of various attractions, including Snowdonia, Welsh Mountain Zoo, and several historical castles.

The Mabinol

With stunning Clwydian Range views and plenty of things to do, it's hard to pinpoint this home's best feature – we loved it all. Your morning coffee comes with a view here, as many bedrooms step directly out onto the terrace, while the large alfresco dining area will be popular when the sun's out. Indoors, the games room and indoor swimming pool will compete for your attention during the day, and there's even a cosy cave bar for nightcaps. And although you'll feel far removed from the city here, you're just a few miles from several local pubs, and Wrexham and Chester are a quick drive if you want to explore.

The Countryside Retreat

Picture the scene — you've just spent a long day in the great Welsh outdoors and you're faced with the choice of snuggling up by the crackling log burner, lying back into a steamy bath or sitting out in the garden and watching the sky go through its dramatic daily transformation. This is the sort of difficult decision you face when you choose this cute cottage as your next getaway.

This is a home that's completely dedicated to cosiness, right down to the rustic decor touches, like the wooden ceiling beams and soft furnishings. Another way to feel completely at peace is by looking through the wide window in the master bathroom, which faces Malltraeth Marsh, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest that's great for birdwatching.

It's also possible to see Snowdonia from this address and you can be inside the National Park in half an hour's drive. Closer to home, it takes thirteen minutes in the car to reach the beach at Traeth Mawr or twenty minutes for the two-thousand-acre Newborough Forest.

Migratory Patterns

Escape to stunning Snowdonia National Park where you’ll find this charming cottage complete with all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay in the Welsh countryside. What this place lacks in state-of-the-art facilities, it more than makes up for in home comforts, boasting cosy living and sleeping quarters that’ll make you feel at ease the second you step over the threshold. Spend your evenings snuggled up by the fire, your favourite song playing on the record player, or head outside for a spot of stargazing in the garden before retiring to your comfy bedroom for a good night’s rest. 

If you fancy getting out and about when you wake up, there are plenty of destinations to choose from. Go for a walk in the shadow of Mount Snowdon, treat yourself to a hearty pub lunch in nearby Dolwyddelan, or pack your bucket and spade and set off for a day of sun, surf, and sand at the nearest beach. Then, when you've had your fill of the great outdoors, come home and unwind with a board game in the conservatory. Anyone for Monopoly? 

Wolf Cottage

This pretty home can be found beside the River Wnion in the small market town of Dolgellau, right at the heart of Snowdonia. It’s a wonderful base for exploring the national park, but staying home is just as much of a treat here. You can enjoy riverside views from the garden, where you’ll have a barbecue. Inside, the mill conversion boasts a wood-burning stove and a games room that’s ideal for older children. Little ones will need to be supervised on the spiral staircase. 

Welsh Stone

Explore Anglesey from this east-coast escape, just steps away from the coastal path – which offers a 130-mile circular route past the island's secluded coves, vast sandy beaches and captivating villages – it's an ideal base for hikers and bikers. However, with far-reaching sea views from all rooms at the front of the house and the front garden seating area, you won't have to move far to appreciate the island's beauty. Centrally located in the quaint former fishing village of Moelfre, you'll find a convenience store, a couple of cafes and a pub a short stroll away, while it's a five-minute drive to the neighbouring village of Benllech, where there are a couple of supermarkets for stocking up on essentials. 


Seen From the Sea

There aren't many homes in our collection where you could feasibly arrive by kayak rather than by car, but this is one of them. Perched on the side of the Menai Strait, this four-storey gem dates back to the Victorian era and benefits from beautiful views of the sea, Bangor Pier and the Snowdonia mountain range. This can be enjoyed from the big bay windows or the comfort of the outdoor terrace. Better still, you can head down to the home's private shingle beach which also has a small cave to explore. Back inside the home, the interior is traditional, with portraits hanging on the walls and a large wooden dining table a regal centrepiece to gather the group around after the day's excursions. The town of Beaumaris with its castle, pier and beach take just six minutes to reach in the car, while you can get to Penrhyn Zip World in twenty minutes if you're looking for hi-octane thrills.

The Marquess

Slow down at this Welsh cottage set in the slate mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog fringing the mighty Snowdonia National Park. Inside, the original period features of this slate-clad home have been carefully restored to create a modern family home boasting comfortable interiors. The welcome hamper stuffed with local goodies is a nice touch, and outside, there's an enclosed terrace to savour morning cuppas. Parking on the road outside the cottage can be tricky, but with a free car park nearby, we don't think it's a dealbreaker. When you're ready for an adventure, Snowdonia National Park is just a short drive away. Or stay local and climb the surrounding Moelwynion Mountains to reach Stiniog –⁠ the views are worth the climb.

Paths to Dawn

Once the former shooting residence of the Earl of Marlborough, this charming Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Snowdonia carefully stitches together history and contemporary design. Original slate floors and a huge inglenook fireplace contrast against modern additions such as the sleek roll-top bath and luxurious hot tub. The kitchen is the heart of the home, where your clan will spend time eating, drinking and playing card games if it tips it down outside. Light the wood-burning stove to keep the chill at bay or warm up with a brisk walk to the town of Blaenau Ffestiniog – you’ll get there in under an hour if you go at a decent pace. Spend sunny afternoons in the beer garden of the Pengwern pub, just a minute’s walk up the road, or jump in the car and take the ten-minute drive to the trout-filled Llyn Trawsfynydd. Hire a fishing rod or stroll around the water’s edge, stopping for a well-deserved cup of tea in the café along the way.

Old Slate

Far from any neighbouring house, this Welsh cottage sits on the edge of Snowdonia with sweeping views across Llyn Tegid towards the Arenig mountains. A handmade kitchen and farmhouse table set the scene for long, unhurried evenings, with a woodburner and corner sofa to sink into afterwards. Outside, the covered terrace has a six-person hot tub, and a wood-fired sauna in the garden makes winding down effortless. The lake and the trails of Eryri National Park are right on the doorstep, but little ones might be happy to spend days waving at passing trains on the Bala Lake Heritage Railway.

Lake & Embers

Conveniently located within the castle walls, this apartment has the very best of Caernarfon on its doorstep. Not only are you a stone’s throw from shops, cafes and pubs, but you’re also a short drive from Snowdonia National Park for invigorating hikes along rugged trails. During pauses in your itinerary, the home has everything you need to feel at ease, including a freestanding bath in the main bedroom for long, hot soaks. Just so you know, there’s a pub opposite – handy when you want to wet your whistle, but it can get noisy on weekends. Light sleepers might want to pack earplugs, just in case.
