In walking distance of the pub and Llyn Trawsfynydd, it has five beautiful bedrooms and sleeps up to nine guests. A traditional slate-and-stone house dating from the 19th century, Rheithordy was built as the rectory for the village church. Recently restored, but retaining a wealth of original features, it is elegantly handsome and stylish. We love the original fireplaces and sash windows, and the gorgeous Minton tiles and Aga in the kitchen. This is a great property for a large group, with plenty of space for extended family and friends - ideal if you're looking for a place where you can bring grandparents along too. Including a fun games room with a table football and table-tennis in a separate outbuilding. All the rooms are bright, well proportioned, and have lovely high ceilings. Sheep graze the fields beyond the garden, and there are uninterrupted views across Llyn Trawsfynydd to the mountains beyond. The landscapes in this part of the world are nothing short of sublime - it's no surprise that Trawsfynydd was used as the location for Camelot in the 1990s film First Knight, starring Sean Connery and Richard Gere. Shallow steps lead from the gravelled drive to a porticoed front door. From there, you're into the hallway, which comes with oak floorboards and ample coat and boot storage. There are two sitting rooms downstairs, with plenty of scope for getting cosy with real fires, winged armchairs and deep leather sofas. You'll find a handy downstairs loo, too. The larger of the sitting rooms has double patio doors which open out onto a large, raised veranda. This is an idyllic spot any time of day, but especially in the evening. Westerly facing to the mountain ridge beyond, there can't be many better places in the world to watch the sun slip slowly into the night. The kitchen diner is a large, bright space with those beautiful Minton tiles, and the toasty Aga which sits in a large inglenook fireplace. There is a large fridge freezer, Belfast sink, and it is well equipped with everything you might need. The large oak dining table easily seats up to ten guests. Upstairs there are five bedrooms, with one en suite kingsize, two further kingsize, a twin and a single. As you'll see from the photographs, these are all bright, beautiful, and stylishly presented. The main family bathroom comes with roll top bath and gorgeous mountain views, as well as a large walk in shower. Outside this impressive property at the foot of the Rhinog mountains you'll find a large enclosed lawned garden and separate out building with games room. The property is dog-friendly, and just a short walk to all the amenities of the village beyond, including the Cross Foxes pub which offers a hearty menu to eat in or takeaway.
Fantastic stay! This house is absolutely beautiful and the views over the fields towards the lake were incredible. Highly recommend. Pub 1 minute walk away. We hiked Snowdon and it took around 35 minutes to drive to the car park. Would love to come back. Thank you
The rural village of Trawsfynydd sits in the foothills of the Rhinog mountains, which are considered to be the wildest and most remote mountains in Wales. It is surrounded by sheep-grazed moorland, sweeping mountain vistas, and ancient coniferous woodlands including the Celtic rainforest of Coed Felenrhyd. It is a straight-up stunning part of the world, and a great escape for a restorative Welsh holiday.
There are some really beautiful walking routes straight out of the front door, from very pleasant circular strolls around Llyn Trawsfynydd (the lake is the third largest lake in Wales at around 5 miles long), to more robust walking routes up into the Rhinog mountains. With canoeing, kayaking, trout fishing, and a new cycle route around the lake, the cottage is perfectly placed for an active family getaway.
Trawsfynydd is within a very easy drive of some of Eryri (Snowdonia)'s most beautiful towns and villages, including Harlech, Dolgellau, Barmouth, Porthmadog, and Portmeirion. The coast - there are beautiful beaches at Harlech, Criccieth and Dyffryn Ardudwy - is a very pleasant 15 mile drive away.
Dolgellau, 13 miles south, is where you'll find the famous Precipice Walk and Cader Idris.
Just 4 miles away is Coed Y Brenin mountain biking centre, where you can bring your own bike or hire one from the Beics Brenin visitor centre. There are eight trails ranging from blue to black, so something for the whole family. There are also excellent running and walking trails through the woods.
Harlech, which is a beautiful 30 minute drive, is home to a clifftop UNESCO World Heritage Site medieval castle, and one of the best links golf courses in the UK at Royal St David's. Its hills and winding lanes provide plenty of nooks and crannies to explore, and some great places for a decent lunch, afternoon tea or dinner. If medieval castles are your thing, head a little further north to Criccieth and Caernarfon to see more of the great fortresses of Wales.
There's easy access to many of Eryri (Snowdonia)'s most popular attractions and destinations from this impressive property at the foot of the Rhinog mountains. They include Zip World, Bounce Below and the Llechwedd Deep Mine experience and Ffestiniog steam railway at Blaenau Ffestiniog. The enchanting village of Portmeirion, with its Italianate follies, interesting shops, famous chinaware, cafés and beautiful gardens, is a 20 minute drive.
If you prefer to keep things lo-fi on your hols, you're in great walking country. The Rhinog mountains offer some of the most spectacular landscapes in the UK with all-shades-of-satisfying routes and no shortage of spectacular spots for a picnic. And there are some interesting echoes from the past to be explored too, including the ruins of a Roman hillfort at nearby Tomen y Mur. Take a look at our blog for some Rhinog walking inspiration.
