Granar Gynolwyn is a semi-detached stone cottage in Tywyn, North Wales. This cosy one-bedroom property adjoins the owner's farmhouse on a working farm. Spectacular valley views stretch across the gentle highlands of southern Snowdonia. A stream runs past the property.

The location sits 1.5 miles from Abergynolwyn village, which was built for quarrymen in 1844. The village has a cafe, pub and stop on the Tal-y-llyn narrow gauge railway. Tywyn lies 7.5 miles away with shops and restaurants. Dolgoch Falls walk starts 2.5 miles from the cottage. Cadair Idris rises 14 miles away.

The cottage sleeps two guests in one king-size bedroom with countryside views. The first-floor bedroom has an adjoining shower room. Two reclining sofas fill the lounge alongside a TV and small book library. The farmhouse-style kitchen features exposed ceiling beams and includes an oven, dishwasher, microwave, washing machine, fridge and freezer.

A 12-mile circular walk passes 13th-century Castell y Bere and Craig yr Aderyn rocky outcrop. River walks start just over the bridge from your front door. A patio with picnic table overlooks the stream.

Granar Gynolwyn suits couples wanting a rural retreat in southern Snowdonia with direct access to mountain walks and waterfalls.
