Bwthyn Y Nant

About this property

Llanberis 2.5 miles. This is a very well appointed, semi-detached character cottage, located in the semi-rural village of Nant Peris at the foot of the Snowdon mountain range. Offering some of the most dramatic scenery in North Wales, the cottage is tucked away from the main road with a backdrop of mountainous hillside scenery. This delightful cottage is decorated to a high standard throughout and is an ideal base for couples, friends and families wishing to enjoy time together exploring this beautiful area, and is just perfect for walkers and hikers alike. The cottage offers cosy and comfortable accommodation with today’s comforts in mind whilst still retaining some character features, such as exposed beams. The sitting room is spacious with comfy seating and you can’t help but be drawn to the wonderful decorative stove on the raised slate hearth which makes a great focal point to the room. The light and bright kitchen is modern in design and well equipped with a sociable dining area. Two bedrooms, with the twin benefiting from some fantastic mountainous views, and the upstairs bathroom finish off the accommodation. Outside is a lovely enclosed lawned garden with furniture, a great area to sit and enjoy the views and backdrop of mountainous scenery. If you don’t fancy cooking then pop next door to the Vaynol Arms, a traditional Welsh long house pub, and enjoy the warm welcome, genuine hospitality, real ale and home-cooked meals, while youngsters will be kept entertained with the play area close by with swings, climbing frames and slide. The cottage is a mere 2.5 miles from the Snowdon Mountain Railway which climbs almost to the doorstep of the stunning Hafod Eryri Visitor Centre or you can take one of the many tracks to the summit of Snowdon, all situated a short drive away from the cottage. Visit the town of Llanberis itself, passing the remains of the famous Dolbadarn Castle on the way which takes you back a thousand years to the time of the native Welsh Princes. Llanberis Lake is just waiting to be discovered, as is the Llanberis Lake Railway. There is plenty to see and do in lakeside Padarn Country Park, including The National Slate Museum, Electric Mountain and there are craft shops and watersports too. Bwthyn y Nant provides a perfect base anytime of the year.

The popular mountain tourist centre of Llanberis is flanked by two lakes, Llyn Padarn and Llyn Peris, and dominated by the stunning Snowdon Massif, in the beautful Snowdonia National Park. With the option to catch the mountain train or pick from the many walking trails to the top, visitors to Llanberis often stop to enjoy the town on their way to take in the outstanding views from the summit of Snowdon, which is the highest mountain in England and Wales. The annual Llanberis Marathon in October takes runners over a gurelling 26 mile course, beginning and ending in the town. For the chance to relax, the sandy beaches, exhilarating watersports and rocky shorelines of the coast are just a few miles away.
