About this property

Resting within the traditional village of Penybontfawr in Powys, is Cwmwr, a stone-fronted, country-style cottage. Welcoming eight guests, the cottage enjoys a nature-filled setting enveloped by rolling hills and woodland, whilst offering both families and groups of friends a private hot tub, a contemporary living space, adorning A-framed beams, and an external games room, providing attractive features for a self-catered break. Park up on the gated driveway before entering Cwmwr, arriving at the farmhouse kitchen, featuring all expected amenities to ease your stay, along with a neighbouring dining room, complete with a lofty eight-seater table, enjoying views to the garden. If you'd prefer to dine alfresco, set the patio table as the hot tub warms up, before enjoying a soak as the sun sets. Retire to the homely sitting room for a film night, with the woodburning stove alight, or locate the games room for a night of entertainment. As sleep calls, select between four well-appointed bedrooms, including a super-king-size with en-suite, two twin bedrooms with zip/link features, and a ground-floor bunk, all serviced by a contemporary bathroom with an indulgent roll-top bath, and a ground-floor shower room. Awaken to vistas across the extensive fields before travelling towards Llyn Vyrnwy Dam and lake, offering the ideal setting for a leisurely walk. Those who enjoy the outdoors will also favour a visit to Pistyll Rhaeadr, enveloped by Berwyn Mountains, followed by a picnic upon Y Berwyn National Nature Reserve. Cwmwr is well-positioned to aboard Bala Lake Railway, or to explore Snowdonia National Park, before crossing the English border, with visits to Oswestry Town Museum, the Old Oswestry Hill Fort, and Chirk Castle. Make wonderful memories at Cwmwr.

The picturesque Berwyn Mountains, surrounding wooded hills, and valleys are where Penybontfawr, a traditional Welsh community, is located. The Revolution Mountain Bike Park is located near the beautiful strolling village of Llangynog, which is only 2.5 miles distant. Slate, lead, and silver mining in the region have a long history that dates to the 17th century. A mountain biking centre is located at Llandegla, and the area is now well known for climbing, birdwatching, walking, and cycling. The area also has renowned mountain bike routes close to Dolgellau. While Llangynog has two pubs and Penybontfawr village has one, both offer delicious meals and are ideal places to unwind after an action-packed day out.

    ! The beds were super comfy, the house was clean and had everything we needed. The hottub and games room were an added bonus for us, they made the stay more fun and enjoyable. We didn’t see anyone on arrival which would have been nice as we couldn’t ask any questions about the area. There was quite a few flies in property, but everything else was perfect! Thank you for a lovely stay.

    A traditional looking, but modern farmhouse/cottage with every facility you could possibly need . We were two families totalling 6 people and had loads of space . Games room and hot tub were a hit with the 2 lads (15/16) . Small village shop and pub about 1 mile away and plenty of outdoor activities in the local area.As described, there is a working farm next door and this added to the experience for us, we even had some pet lambs join us in the garden one day! Overall a great place to stay and we would certainly recommend it!
