This beautiful cottage near Barmouth ticks every box if you’re looking for a countryside and coastal retreat. Mountain views wrap themselves around you, so wherever you are in this charming home, you can’t help but appreciate the beauty of nature as it pops up constantly to remind you how serene this setting is. With a generous, enclosed garden and access to the coastal path from your doorstep, it’s just a leisurely stroll to Tal-y-bont beach and its beautiful, long stretch of sand. Head out for the day and you can enjoy Barmouth and, further up the coast, Harlech, with a vast array of eateries, quirky shops and outdoor activities. When weariness sets in from exploring the Snowdonia coast and countryside, head back home and sink into your hot tub. Here, you can enjoy a glass of wine as the bubbles warm you and the quiet of nature fills the air. As the sun drops below the mountains to make way for the night, look up – without light pollution, the stars will be sparkling in the sky above. Pop some logs onto your outdoor wood burner, wrap yourself in a cosy blanket and enjoy some quality time with your... loved ones. The only downside to this Welsh wonder is that you may find you never want to go home.
