Located in Bangor, Gwynedd, this charming two-bedroom cottage originally served as part of a traditional Welsh school. The property has been thoughtfully converted to showcase reclaimed wood features throughout, along with stripped pine flooring and a cozy wood-burning stove. Accommodating up to seven guests, the cottage is designed across two floors, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere for families or groups looking to explore the stunning landscapes of Wales.
The ground floor features a well-equipped kitchen, complete with modern appliances such as a washer/dryer, fridge-freezer, microwave, and an electric double oven. A dining table suitable for four to six guests and a high chair make mealtime convenient. The lounge area provides comfortable seating for seven, including a bed-settee that can accommodate two additional guests. A feature fireplace with a wood-burner adds to the cozy ambiance, complemented by a TV and DVD for entertainment. The cottage also offers two versatile bedrooms: one with a double metal bed and another that can be configured with three single beds or a kingsize and single bed, both equipped with travel cots for infants.
Outside, guests can enjoy a landscaped terrace that backs onto woodland, providing a serene space for relaxation with garden seating available. The property is ideally situated at the edge of Snowdonia National Park, just a five-minute walk from ZipWorld Wales, home to the longest zip wire in Europe.
