Set in spectacular countryside, Erw Nant is a delightful, architect-designed, detached eco cottage, in the hamlet of Llwynmawr, North Wales.
Ideal for both families and friends, the cottage is an ideal base from which to explore this lovely part of the country.
Beautifully presented with stylish contemporary furnishings, the cottage is accessed by a footbridge over a brook and up steps leading through a pretty cottage garden, into a sun porch with seating overlooking the front garden.
Built on a split level with an open plan first floor, the sitting room offering some of the best views in the house through two large picture windows, there is a contemporary, Scandinavian woodburner to add warmth and feature when needed.
An opening leads through to the dining room with designer radiators and bi-fold doors onto a terrace area with glass balustrade.
The modern, fitted kitchen with range cooker is perfect for preparing home-cooked meals after an energetic day fell walking or exploring the local attractions.
The four bedrooms are all furnished with modern Japanese-style beds, low to the floor, the ground floor master offering bi-fold doors into the garden, as well as an en-suite shower room.
