About this cottage rental
Escape to an idyllic stone cottage nestled within the tranquil Nannau Estate, just a stone's throw away from the breath-taking Coed Y Brenin Mountain Forest Park. This charming retreat offers a perfect haven for families or friends seeking a peaceful getaway amidst nature's embraces.
You'll be enveloped by the serene beauty of the surrounding woodland as you park your car and stroll past the babbling stream. The property, believed to be the former stables of the neighbouring Old Chapel, hosts three bedrooms and two bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to four guests.
Inside, discover a harmonious blend of rustic charm and modern convenience. The open-plan lounge, kitchen, and diner welcome you with exposed beams and thoughtful touches throughout. Whip up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen and gather around the dining table for a leisurely meal or unwind by the wood burner. The ground floor boasts a lovely king-size bedroom with an en suite shower room, where French doors lead out to the enclosed garden. Upstairs, two single bedrooms are designed with comfort in mind for a restful night's sleep.
Outside, there is plenty of space to relax and embrace the views. Enjoy al fresco dining on the patio area with a table, chairs, and BBQ, sit by the stream, or help yourself to seasonal produce from the garden. The enclosed garden is mostly laid to lawn, surrounded by the open garden and woodland, offering a great spot to watch the stars. If you are bringing your bikes, there is room in the garden shed to store them. Additionally, off-road parking is available at the property for two cars.
Close to Coed Y Brenin Mountain forest park, the valleys of rivers Mawddach, Eden, Gain, and Wen, and the National Trust site in Ganllwyd, the area offers the finest mountain biking in the UK, with waymarked trails for both cycling and walking, past rivers, gorges, and waterfalls. Visitors can also enjoy fishing at Trawfynnedd, while adrenaline seekers can head to Go Ape High Wires, Zip World Slate Caverns, and the National White-Water Rafting Centre, all close by. Explore local towns with eateries, shops, and attractions such as historic Dolgellau, Bala with its lake, Barmouth with its beach, and Harlech with its Castle—an all year-round destination.

Absolutely beautiful place! We will planned a last-minute getaway and couldn’t have asked for more!

Lovely snug cottage, tucked away in the forest. Well equipped, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Generous Christmas treats a very kind touch!
Worth telling guests that the neighbours are close - we know this area well/ were aware of the proximity to the neighbouring house. Not for anyone bothered by yappy dogs!
Also … the key safe - tell people exactly where it is. Walked right round the cottage before looking in the shed. The most obvious key safe (straight ahead as you walk in) is redundant. The actual key safe is behind the door. Had a ‘fun’ few moments working this out!!’

The cottage is in a stunning area with so many fantastic walks and options for things to do. It's such a peaceful place with only bird sounds around. We immediately felt at home in the cottage itself, which is beautifully decorated and one of the best equipped places we've stayed at. The owners really have thought of everything! The garden was also adored by our dog. It's fully secure and leads straight out from the living room and bedroom. Would love to stay here again!
