Yr Hen Felin

Yr Hen Felin is a strikingly restored former watermill set in the village of Dyffryn Ardudwy, Gwynedd, offering a holiday home filled with character, history and space for memorable time together.

Surrounded by open countryside and with far-reaching views towards the sea and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), this is a place where dramatic scenery forms part of everyday life.

Original oak beams, exposed stonework and carefully preserved features sit beautifully alongside modern design, giving the house a real sense of heritage without sacrificing practicality.

Arranged over two floors, the accommodation is generous and thoughtfully planned for larger groups.

On the ground floor, two king-size bedrooms each enjoy their own en-suite facilities, one with a bath and shower over, while a family room with a single bed and a child’s bed offers flexibility for younger guests.

Upstairs, a further king-size bedroom with en-suite shower and a twin bedroom provide additional private spaces.

The first-floor lounge is a true highlight, where a woodburning stove and wide windows draw your attention straight to the landscape beyond, framing sea views and the mountainous backdrop.

A separate library creates a quiet retreat for reading or reflection, while the games room, complete with a pool table, brings everyone together for friendly competition.

The contemporary kitchen and dining area is designed for sociable cooking and shared meals, opening directly onto a spacious patio where you can dine outdoors while taking in the coastal outlook.

Dyffryn Ardudwy sits between mountains and sea, making it an excellent base for exploring North Wales.

Barmouth offers a long sandy beach, boat trips along the Mawddach Estuary and scenic walking routes with unforgettable views.

Porthmadog is known for its heritage railways, colourful harbour and access to Portmeirion, the iconic Italianate village.

Within Eryri National Park (Snowdonia), you’ll find dramatic hiking trails, waterfalls, forest walks and a wide choice of outdoor activities for all abilities.

Yr Hen Felin offers a rare opportunity to stay somewhere with genuine history, impressive scenery and space to gather, making it a memorable base for discovering this remarkable part of Wales.
