Idyllic romantic 17th Century Snowdonia cottage - short breaks available by request
edge of a pretty lake, this idyllic 17th Century fairy tale cottage is
surrounded by ancient oak woodlands.
its original character, the cottage has thick stone walls, a huge inglenook
fireplace and stone turned staircase leading to the bedrooms which are separated
by the original elm wooden post and panel partitions.
small tavern (now Grade II Listed) and it takes little imagination to visualise the local menfolk sitting
in the inglenook with their clay pipes whiling away time whilst swapping fireside stories!
adjacent kitchen/dining room has freestanding pine units and an early Victorian
pine dresser. Pretty ornaments adorn all the small windows of the cottage from
where there are views of the meadow and lake beyond. Stargaze on clear nights -
there is a telescope upstairs - no light pollution just myriad stars to
enchant!
where there is a boat for guests use, a note of caution though - the lake is
tranquil but only experienced oarsmen (or women!) should venture out onto the
water! Do remember your life jackets!
