About this property

Machynlleth 5.8 miles. Settled amid the glorious, rolling countryside of Powys, in the quaint village of Aberhosan near Machynlleth, is the beautifully presented Bacheiddon Log Cabin. In a truly unforgettable location, and a winner of a Gem Award 2023, this property boasts a 360 degree view of the mountains from every aspect. Boasting a warm and welcoming interior as well as an outdoor hot tub, this charming abode is the idyllic rural retreat for a family of four. Be greeted by two desirable off-road parking spaces before leaving your vehicle to soak in the spectacular views, with a field of sheep before you. Enter the spacious open-plan living area, flooded with natural light from the French doors and offering panoramic views of the unspoilt landscape. Step over to the tastefully furnished sitting area to unwind after your journey; throw a log into the woodburning stove to set a relaxing ambiance and flick on the Smart TV. Prepare tasty meals in the contemporary kitchen, hosting an elegant island in the centre so you can keep the designated chef company, and keep your wine cool in the American style fridge/freezer before dinner is ready; settle down at the dining table to tuck into a heart-warming dish and catch up on the adventures of the day. Head outside to the front garden to savour a moment of relaxation in the hot tub; here you can unwind under the stars with a stunning backdrop of the Welsh hills. As the evening draws to a close, venture back inside to the warmth and pick up a towel off the heated towel rail in the bathroom to keep you toasty. Choose between two splendid, super-king-size bedrooms, both providing great storage space to house your belongings and Smart TV's for late night entertainment. In the morning, enjoy a refreshing rinse in the walk-in shower, or opt for a leisurely soak in the free-standing bath to begin your day. Relish a steaming cup of coffee in the enclosed garden nestled at the rear of the property whilst the little ones play around the space. Lace up your walking boots and embark on an adventure to the town of Machynlleth to discover a dramatic, cascading waterfall, Frwd Fawr Waterfall, where you can admire the splendour of nature or visit Afon Clywedog for a stroll around Clywedog Reservoir and then through Hafren Forest for some ancient woodlands. Travel further afield to the old market town of Dolgellau, renowned as one of the most stunning places to explore within Eryri (Snowdonia); here you can have fantastic walks, enjoy the thrill of mountain biking and then choose from a plethora of eateries after an action-packed day. The historical town of Aberystwyth is also within easy reach, where you can tour the Amgueddfa Ceredigion Museum for various periods in time, as well as Aberystwyth Arts Centre, which offers a cinema and four galleries to explore; be sure to take a walk along the sea to the Royal Pier Arcade. For a replenishing trip to the countryside, stay at Bacheiddon Log Cabin.

Machynlleth is a charming market town resting amid the unspoilt countryside of Mid Wales. The town hosts street markets each Wednesday and is home to a 19th century clock tower as well as a great selection of shops, pubs and cafes. Machynlleth hosts two art galleries, including the Museum of Modern Arts, which showcases international talent.

    Complete privacy for a lovely chilled week, with spectacular views. It was wonderful to open the curtains in the morning to the beautiful rolling hills with the sheep grazing a few feet away. The hot tub was very clean and well-maintained and we had the perfect weather to make the most of it. The owner is hands-on, and a phone call away if needed, but we really couldn’t fault anything. We had an amazing time, and can’t wait to return. Thank you Bethan, we hope to see you again soon!
