Ty'n-Y-Ffynnon Cottage, located in the picturesque Barmouth, Gwynedd, Wales, is a beautifully restored accommodation that comfortably sleeps eight guests across four bedrooms. Nestled into the mountainside of Dinas Oleu, this charming cottage offers breathtaking views of the historic harbour, Mawddach Estuary, Barmouth Beach, and the surrounding mountains. The property is designed over four floors with meticulous attention to detail, making it an ideal retreat for families or groups of friends seeking a unique getaway.
The cottage's location presents a challenge for vehicle access; however, the convenience of having luggage and shopping transported to the property via quad bike upon arrival between 2pm and 4pm alleviates this issue. Inside, guests are welcomed by a cozy lounge featuring a stunning fireplace with a woodburning stove and an exposed stone wall, creating a warm atmosphere for relaxation. A telescope in the bay window adds a touch of adventure, while the kitchen, located a few steps up, is fully equipped for home cooking and boasts a breakfast bar with picturesque views over the town.
On the first floor, visitors will find a beautifully designed family bathroom complete with a walk-in shower and a bath, complemented by a natural stone feature wall. This level also includes a double bedroom and a bunk bedroom, while a unique double bedroom tucked into the eaves is located on the next floor, albeit with restricted head height. Additionally, the lower ground floor features a bedroom with an en-suite shower room, ensuring ample space and comfort for all guests.
The terraced garden, perhaps the cottage's standout feature, spans multiple levels and includes two decked areas with patio furniture, a barbecue area, sun loungers, and a top level with a covered hot tub and changing room. This outdoor space is perfect for sunny days and gatherings. When ready to explore, guests can enjoy Barmouth's sandy beach for sunbathing and watersports, visit the charming harbour for delightful eateries, or cycle along Barmouth Bridge and the scenic Mawddach Trail. Local attractions like the Corris Mine and the Corris Steam Railway Museum offer further opportunities for adventure. Ty'n-Y-Ffynnon Cottage truly provides a magnificent base for creating cherished memories with loved ones.
