This 3-bedroom farmhouse is a 400-year-old traditional stone Welsh property sitting high on a hillside on a working farm in Cwmystradllyn, North Wales. Set within Snowdonia National Park just 6 miles from Porthmadog, the panoramic views across rolling hills and the Dwyryd Estuary are genuinely outstanding. This is proper rural seclusion, with nothing but farmland and grazing livestock beyond the stone boundary wall.

The setting is remote and quiet. Guests arrive via narrow roads and a farm track which adds to the experience. The enclosed garden has a large lawn and gravelled area and plenty of space for outdoor games. Black Rock Sands is 8 miles away for swimming and rock pooling.

The cottage sleeps six across three bedrooms. Bedroom one is king-size, bedroom two is double and bedroom three is super-king or twin (notify preference at booking). There are two bathrooms: an upstairs bathroom with bath, shower and WC and a downstairs wet room with shower and WC. The living room has an inglenook fireplace and there's a cosy snug and sunroom with French doors to the patio.

Nearby: Black Rock Sands (8 miles), Harlech Beach (15.5 miles) and Trawsfynydd Lake (15 miles). Porthmadog town is just 6 miles away.

This getaway suits families and outdoor lovers who want genuine peace. Reviewers call the views and clean air "magical." One dog welcome too.
