Bryn Adda - Dolgellau, Snowdonia - Mountains, Beach, Sauna, Fire Pit!

Dolgellau, Gwynedd

18

Bryn Adda is a stunning 16th Century farmhouse nestled within the picturesque Snowdonia National Park in North Wales, accommodating up to 18 guests across its 8 bedrooms. Its idyllic location offers seclusion while being conveniently close to the vibrant market town of Dolgellau, just a mile away. Guests can easily access nearby beaches, such as Barmouth and Fairbourne, within a 20-minute drive, and the renowned Coed-y-Brenin Forest Park, which is only 9 minutes away. Additionally, the majestic Cadair Idris mountain looms behind the house, and the famous Mawddach Trail, a flat 9-mile route to Barmouth, is just a short 5-minute walk from the property.

The interior of Bryn Adda combines traditional charm with modern comforts, featuring thoughtfully designed rooms that reflect the surrounding landscape and history. The house operates largely on green energy, utilizing a biomass boiler for heating. Guests can enjoy three distinct relaxation spaces: a spacious sitting room with an open fire and garden views, a snug area with a wood burner and access to the garden, and a games room equipped with a pool table, table football, and a large TV with streaming services. Families will find ample amenities for children, including cots, highchairs, and plenty of safe space for play.

The expansive grounds of Bryn Adda span four and a half acres, offering a variety of exploration opportunities, including an ancient forest perfect for children's den-building. A public footpath winds through the woods and up the nearby hill, while a designated area for barbecues and meals features a wood-fired pizza oven and a rustic table that seats 14. Several patio areas with outdoor furniture are scattered throughout the garden, and a cozy campfire spot, complete with seating and fairy lights, invites guests to enjoy starry nights with provided blankets and hot water bottles for warmth.

Additional amenities include a wood-fired sauna with a shower and toilet in one of the stone outbuildings, while the games room, located in a separate outbuilding, offers a variety of indoor and outdoor games, as well as a TV for movie nights. The sleeping arrangements consist of four super king beds (which can be split into two singles), two king beds, one double bed, and two smaller bunks suited for young children. Bryn Adda is also available for smaller groups of up to 8 people, providing exclusive use of the property outside school holidays, making it an ideal retreat for families and friends alike. The surrounding area boasts local landmarks such as Cymer Abbey and Barmouth Bridge, along with countless outdoor activities including kayaking, fishing, rock climbing, and hiking for those seeking adventure.
