Arthog House | Character old cottage in gorgeous Snowdonia location

2 Bedroom House in Arthog

Cottage set in the Mawddach Valley nature reserve near the Mawddach Estuary, in the Snowdonia National Park.
Beautiful mountain views and lovely country walks; just 3 minutes’ walk from the scenic Cambrian Coastal Railway at Morfa Mawddach and backing directly onto the stunning Mawddach Trail. Activities nearby include mountain biking, golf, sailing, quad biking, clay shooting, horse riding, plus miles of beaches and the sea. Basic equipment such as golf clubs, wetsuits and body boards are available for guests to use.
The location
Situated between mountains, rivers and coastal waters, the elements mingle here to provide clean, crisp fresh air and a coastal breeze.
The cottage
In this “away from the madding crowd” 2-bedroom cottage, you will have access to the entire place.
There is a well-equipped kitchen, bathroom with shower, and a large living room with two sofas, a television and a dining table. Provision for up to 5 guests is available:
• Bedroom 1: double bed
• Bedroom 2: bunk bed with a double at the bottom and a single on top
Solar panels and a heat-source pump provide extra warmth. Please note: the living-room floor has a gentle slope (carpeted).
The cottage also has a private outdoor garden area.
Guest access
Entire house and all facilities.
Other things to note
This is a Victorian stone cottage with original character and antique furniture. It is very much 19th century in style, with a couple of single steps inside. If you are looking for a modern build with brand-new finishes, this may not be the right choice for you — but guests who value charm, history and character usually love it.
The cottage is not suitable for wheelchair or step-free access: there is a step at the front door and another small step from the hallway into the lounge.
Pets are welcome, but we kindly ask that they are kept out of the sleeping areas.
Guest review
“Fantastic location right next to estuary trail. Short walk to Barmouth over the bridge. Accommodation was very comfortable and extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Lots of excellent hikes straight from the door so no need to drive. Cadair Idris a short drive away if need something challenging. DVD collection is huge and board games etc available. Plenty of hot water and solar and mains heating so no chance of getting cold in the winter. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and sure that you would too.”

Summary: Cottage was absolutely perfect for us, comfy beds, comfy sofas, loved all the games, dvds etc. Will definitely be booking again. Location is perfect, 2 min walk to train station and only a mile and a half to a beautiful beach. Perfect for a quiet family holiday.
