About this property

Set in the heart of the little village of Penmancho, opposite a pub and shop, sits this quaint little abode, Bod Gwynedd. A character abode for a family who loves the outdoors, Bod Gwynedd is set amidst a range of walking and cycling trails scaling through the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Kick off your walking boots and settle down in the lounge, complete with a set of plush seating and a woodburning stove, encouraging snug nights with a good book in hand. Follow round into the kitchen, equipped with all the essentials for a short break, whilst the utility room has a washing machine and tumble dryer, so you can easily pop your muddy clothes on a spin. Climb the stairs to reach the bedrooms, offering a family room with double and bunk bed, along with a standard double, each neutrally furnished. In the morning, freshen up in the shower room, before heading to the shop opposite and grabbing the ingredients for a tasty breakfast. Those outdoor enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice; choose to embark on a bike along Afon Llugwy to Swallow Falls Waterfall, or climb up to Cerigiau Gleison, before circling back to the town of Betws-y-Coed, where you’ll be welcomed by a range of superb eateries, from Y Stablau to Llugwy River Restaurant. For a day of adventure, visit Blaenau Ffestiniog for Zip World Llechwedd set inside an impressive rock quarry, and the Victorian-era Sygun Copper Mine. Alternatively, head towards the coast and spend some time at Porthmadog or Portmeirion, or why not venture to the scenic Isle of Anglesey for a day. Bod Gwynedd is perfect for a getaway in any season.

Only 4 miles separate the little, tranquil village of Penmachno from the well-known town of Betws-y-Coed, which is located in the lovely Machno Valley. While Betws-y-Coed town has a decent selection of shops, bars, and cafes, the surrounding area, which is surrounded by forests, majestic mountains, and gushing rivers, is a refuge for walkers, birdwatchers, mountain bikers, and climbers. The River Conwy joins its three tributaries at this location, resulting in a variety of cascading waterfalls, river pools, and historic bridges throughout the countryside. The most well-known of these is the magnificent waterfall at Swallow Falls, which is located where the River Llugwy meets with a breathtaking chasm, creating a sight not to be missed! In the Machno Valley, the stunning Conwy Falls are also well worth a visit. This stunning location has a lot to offer all year round with easy access to North Wales' Heritage Coastlines and all of Snowdonia to explore.

    .. the windows are not secure.. and it is a concern to leave valuables whilst out. The back door is not secure with lock and key.. the shop is very busy and customers are parked outside window and front door which is very noisy.. there is no parking available with this cottage as stated... the church kindly allowed us to park.. we went home two days early as it was an unpleasant experience.. we were disappointed.

  • Ross

    The house was clean, cosy and well equipped. We will definitely return in future!

  • Owen

    The house had everything needed. The countryside around is stunning. A great place to use as a base for a motorcycling trip around North Wales. Would have no problem returning and doing it again.
