Converted Watermill With Beautiful River And Majestic Mountains On Its Doorstep

Abergynolwyn, Gwynedd

8

Y Felin is a beautifully restored 16th-century water mill located in the enchanting Dysynni Valley within Snowdonia National Park, Gwynedd, Wales. Nestled beneath the breathtaking Cader Idris mountain and near Llyn Mwyngil, this charming property offers a tranquil riverside setting that is both peaceful and secluded. The conversion has preserved the mill's distinctive features, creating a light and airy atmosphere throughout the living spaces. The fully equipped kitchen and spacious open-plan living area, complete with large, comfortable sofas and a wood burner, provide a welcoming environment for relaxation and socialization, enhanced by picture windows that frame stunning views of the surrounding landscape.

Accommodating up to eight guests, Y Felin features three bedrooms, including a master bedroom with private access to the river and its own wood burner. The third bedroom, equipped with two bunk beds, is more compact but still functional. The property boasts a generous outdoor area of approximately two acres, offering ample space for outdoor activities, with facilities including a table, chairs, BBQ, and fire bowl. However, guests should be mindful of the unfenced river and steep drops in the garden. The ambiance of the house promotes a perfect blend of quality time with loved ones and opportunities for various outdoor adventures.

For those seeking local attractions, the nearby historic market towns of Machynlleth and Aberdyfi offer rich cultural experiences, including a weekly market and access to sandy beaches. Outdoor enthusiasts will find numerous leisure activities in the vicinity, such as mountain biking at Coed Y Brenin, fishing, kayaking, sailing, and mountaineering. Alternatively, guests can choose to unwind indoors, enjoying the picturesque views through the expansive windows. The property also provides free WiFi and a separate utility room equipped with a freezer, washing machine, and dryer for added convenience.

As part of its ongoing commitment to guest satisfaction, Y Felin is scheduled for refurbishment in early spring 2022, which will include updates to cooking utensils and patio furniture. This cottage is ideally situated in a rural area along the river, making it an excellent base for exploring local attractions such as the Mach Loop, Climachx Mountain Bike Trail, King Arthur's Labyrinth, and the Corris Craft Centre. Families traveling with children can enjoy nearby activities like Coastriders Kitesurfing and Penrhyn Amusement Arcade, along with opportunities for game walks and birdwatching to connect with the area's natural wildlife.
