About this property

Cottage in Croesor. Snowdonian mountain retreat. Fast internet with vista views!

Our cottage, with private parking and open fire with fuel, is located in Croesor, within the Snowdonia National Park between Cnicht (a pyramid shaped mountain popular with climbers and hikers) and the Moelwyn range of mountains. There are varied and stunning walks available straight from the front door! The seaside at Morfa Bwchan (Black Rock Sands) is a short drive away near Porthmadog, and boasts large stretches of beautiful yellow sands, set between the castles of Criccieth and Harlech. There is a local shop and cafe/restaurant in Llanfrothen, two miles away. The nearest big supermarkets (Tesco/Aldi/Lidl) are in Porthmadog, 8 miles from Croesor. There is often a cafe in the village, as well as at the Brondanw estate a mile from Croesor. The Brondanw estate, with its beautifully kept gardens was the family home of Clough Williams-Ellis, the famous architect of Portmeirion, 10 miles from the house.

Our living room is equiped with an open fire with fuel, two sofas, TV with Amazon Prime stick, DVD player, table with 5 comfy chairs, kitchen area with an oven and 4 hobs, microwave, fridge with small freezer compartment, kettle, toaster, washing machine and dishwasher. After a long day enjoying the mountains and beaches, enjoy the open fire while soaking in the panoramic views from the sofa!

Upstairs you will find the main double bedroom, The second bedroom with two single bunk beds, and a large bathroom with bath and shower. Down stairs there is an additional bedroom with a small double bed and TV.

The enclosed front garden is equipped with an Al fresco dining area, overlooking the Croesor valley and the Moelwyn mountain range.

The cottage situated in Croesor, near Porthmadog is well equiped for any family holiday and has been let for over 30 years. The property is available for rental all year. We recommend walking to Beddgelert, following the stream over Nantmoor, through the Eyri forest and along the world famous Aberglasslyn pass where you will find several pubs and restaurants. The pyramid shaped mount cincht(meaning Knight) and the Moelyn mountains. Have a short walk along the mountain river, where there are opportunities to play pooh sticks or just give the dogs a walk.

Hike up the Roman road, to catch the Ffestiniog steam railway at Tan y Bwlch station, where there is a gentle walk around the very scenic lake. You can also walk down to the Oakeley Arms through majestic trees and down the densely Forested track.
