Perched on a hillside with valley views rolling out in every direction, this stone cottage is a quiet retreat in North Wales. Soak in the wood-fired hot tub as the hills stretch out before you, or gather on the stone terrace for an alfresco dinner as dusk settles over the countryside. Inside, a log-burning stove anchors a cosy living room perfect for evenings in, while the farmhouse kitchen keeps things relaxed and unhurried. Wales's tallest waterfall, Pistyll Rhaeadr, is a short scenic drive away – and the walking from the village into the mountains starts right on the doorstep.

About Snowdonia
Mountains, lakes, wooded valleys and picture-postcard villages. We’re not in the Alps – this is Wales, and it’s as rugged and just about as exhilarating as you want it to be.
