    “Beautiful, spacious cottage, full of rustic charm.”

    Well equipped, well maintained house and gardens. Gorgeous location. The drawback of the location is that there’s only a pub, that serves really dreadful food, and a cafe. You need to come with some provisions as it’s miles to get some. Everything about the cottage is great apart from the beds. The mattresses are well past it. The biggest bed is very soft, and you can feel and hear every spring in the double bed. Backs were suffering. Good point to travel out from, to the many places that ...

    Well equipped, well maintained house and gardens. Gorgeous location. The drawback of the location is that there’s only a pub, that serves really dreadful food, and a cafe. You need to come with some provisions as it’s miles to get some. Everything about the cottage is great apart from the beds. The mattresses are well past it. The biggest bed is very soft, and you can feel and hear every spring in the double bed. Backs were suffering. Good point to travel out from, to the many places that there are to visit. Defo recommend here wholeheartedly.

The property

An immaculately-presented quality cottage which is located in the heart of the pretty village of Llangynog in the Tanat Valley.

The village sits at the foot of the Milltir Cerrig mountain pass, in the heart of the Berwyn Mountains in Powys.

Full of character, this lovely stone-built cottage has a spacious entrance hall which leads into one of two cosy sitting rooms with comfy sofas and a woodburning stove in each.

The large and well-equipped breakfast kitchen is perfect for families and friends to gather together around the country style dining table.

A utility room with a useful drying rack leads out into the pretty side garden which provides a sunny spot to sit back and relax.

The second, larger sitting room also has a warming woodburning stove set within the feature fireplace, perfect for snuggling up on cool evenings.

Up the steep stairs are two lovely double bedrooms and a twin room all with en-suite facilities.

The cottage is in a superb location for walkers, cyclists, birdwatchers and climbers, with an excellent mountain bike facility on the doorstep.

Nearby Rhaeadr Waterfall has the highest single drop waterfall in the UK and is well worth a visit.

Within easy reach is the town of Llangollen with its steam railway and stunning canal, Oswestry and the medieval market town of Shrewsbury.

A trip to Bala or further afield to the city of Chester can easily be enjoyed from this lovely cottage or Barmouth on the west coast of Snowdonia.

Bodywen is a delightful rural cottage in a superb village location just perfect for a relaxing break to be enjoyed by friends and family at any time of the year!

About the location

LLANGYNOG

Bala 13.2 miles; Shrewsbury 32.4 miles

The pleasant village of Llangynog lies in the breath-taking rolling countryside of North Powys on the banks of the River Tanat amidst the beautiful Berwyn Mountains, and surrounding wooded hills and valleys. The area has a history of lead, silver, and slate mining, dating back to the 17th century but today it is a renowned location for climbing, birdwatching, walking, and cycling, with famous mountain bike trails near Dolgellau, and a mountain bike centre at Llandegla. To dine out there is the New Inn, a traditional pub, which enjoys scenic views of the Snowdonia Mountain range, and a short drive will lead you to a well-stocked Post Office to stock up on the essentials. Visit the historic market town of Bala for an action-packed day, where you can take up climbing, abseiling, mountain biking, as well as canoeing and kayaking on the glacial lake; it is a wonderful beauty spot, with excellent fishing and a variety of water sports, or perhaps visit Lake Vyrnwy, which has an RSPB centre and a sculpture park. Also, within easy reach is Llanrhaeadr Waterfall, the tallest single drop waterfall in England and Wales, or cross over the border into Shropshire to explore the town of Shrewsbury, steeped in history with its Grade I castle. This is a beautiful part of the country and is perfect for touring the rest of North and Mid Wales and Shropshire.

This property sleeps a maximum of six people and 1 infant.
