Description

2 Bryn Eglwys is tucked away in the charming hamlet of Prenteg near Porthmadog, Gwynedd, is this wonderful former quarryman’s cottage. Enjoying a superb location in the stunning Snowdonia National Park, with exceptional walks and bike rides right from your front door, 2 Bryn Eglwys is a fantastic family-friendly choice for couples, friends and families. The property benefits from off-road parking in the adjacent free park, and a sloping lawned garden with furniture and barbecue, perfect for evening drinks or alfresco dining with a view. On the ground floor, you will find a well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can cook up family favourites, ready to enjoy at the dining table as you recount the day's adventures. After dinner, make your way through to the inviting sitting area, where you can fire up the wood-burning stove, before settling down to watch a film on the TV with a DVD player. Head upstairs, where you will find a contemporary bathroom, where you can freshen up in the walk-in shower or indulge in a leisurely soak in the bath. When sleep calls, retire to one of three tastefully decorated bedrooms, a double, a twin and a single, all ideal for catching up on some well-deserved rest.

Prenteg is a charming village nestled in the heart of Gwynedd, offering the perfect base for exploring the spectacular landscapes of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and the beautiful North Wales coastline. Within the hamlet, you can enjoy leisurely walks to the wildlife-rich Glaslyn Osprey Centre, watch the resident ospreys, visit the nearby Aberdunant Hall for a drink or a meal, let the little ones burn off energy at the playground opposite, or take a short stroll to the picturesque 3-foot waterfall. Just a short drive away, Porthmadog offers an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and family-friendly attractions. Discover the town's rich maritime heritage at the Maritime Museum, enjoy a memorable walk with Black Rock Llamas, or take a nostalgic journey on the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway. Dine at popular local eateries including The Australia and The Port Café Deli & Restaurant, before heading to nearby Black Rock Sands to relax on the beach, visit the Beach Club, or enjoy a round at the local golf course. Outdoor enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice, with countless walking and cycling trails weaving through the surrounding countryside. Whether you're looking for a gentle riverside stroll or an unforgettable climb to the summit of **Yr Wyddfa** (Snowdon), Wales' highest mountain, there's an adventure for every ability. Leave the car behind and take advantage of the nearby Sherpa bus service for easy access to the mountain and surrounding trails. For those seeking even more excitement, Zip World offers a range of thrilling experiences, including underground adventures at Llechwedd in Blaenau Ffestiniog and treetop adventures at Fforest in Betws-y-Coed. History lovers can explore the fascinating Dolwyddelan Castle, while the picturesque village of Beddgelert is perfect for a relaxing day out. Don't miss the Welsh Highland Railway station in the village or the nearby Ffestiniog Railway for a scenic journey through the mountains. Venture further afield to the enchanting Italianate village of Portmeirion, designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, with its colourful architecture and beautiful gardens, or explore the stunning Llŷn Peninsula, where the seaside towns of Pwllheli and Criccieth await, the latter home to its magnificent medieval castle. After a day of adventure, Aberdunant Hall, just a short (though steep) walk from the cottage, provides excellent dining options. Enjoy relaxed family meals and traditional Sunday lunches in the Glaslyn Lounge, or choose the more intimate setting of Y Bistro for a special evening. With breathtaking scenery, endless outdoor adventures, fascinating attractions and wonderful places to eat and explore, 2 Bryn Eglwys promises an unforgettable escape in the heart of the Welsh countryside.

Very cosy, warm cottage.

It was like home from home. The owners have certainly thought of everything, all equipment catered for, for couples, and families right down to a welcoming milk and biscuits to make that first cuppa on arrival, really appreciated that after a 7 hour drive

Wonderful property, very homely and perfectly located to explore the local area.

Only minor criticism is the mattresses in the single and twin rooms aren’t very comfortable.
