    “This is a delightful property in a gorgeous location.”

    There was plenty of space internally and the garden was huge and contained, so the dogs could not get out if the main gate was closed. Crockery, cutlery, etc was plentiful. There are a few televisions dotted around, the one in the main living room is huge. Everything about this cottage exceeded our expectations. We would love to go back sometime.

The property

Groes Heol is a striking converted farmhouse that can be found resting peacefully on the outskirts of Mallwyd village.

Set in rural Wales, this magnificent and spacious dwelling provides a fantastic setting for a family or group of ten looking to celebrate in the beautiful Welsh countryside.

As you approach the private driveway admire the fantastic views of the luscious green mountains that surround the property and make note of the handy outdoor storage area, where you can store all of your bikes.

Step into the warmth of the hallway where you can take off your coats, kick off your mud-splattered boots, before indulging in a refreshing wash in the well-thought-out shower room after a scenic hike through the countryside.

Grab some ingredients from the large fridge/freezer located in the delightful navy-blue utility room and make your way into the airy open-plan living space, home to a beautiful grey farmhouse kitchen boasting a magnificent range cooker and a dishwasher answering all your culinary needs.

Gather at the dining table acting as the social hub of the home, to feast upon a lovingly prepared meal and raise a glass to time well-spent with your loved ones.

Continue the evening with drinks in the sitting area, keeping nice and toasty from the warmth of the woodburning stove and enjoying conversations with friends whilst the children play happily in the games room.

Retreat to the snug to escape the excitement as you curl up into one of the traditional armchairs with an enthralling book, before joining the group in the magnificent living room with grand high ceilings and original exposed beams, to watch a captivating blockbuster movie on the flat-screen TV.

As you begin to feel yourself tire, pick yourself up off the plush sitting room sofa and wander up the staircase to find a spacious double bedroom with the benefit of an en-suite bathroom where you can lay your head to rest.

Guests will find a further three bedrooms on the first floor including two doubles and a twin, each boasting views of the magnificent rolling countyside as well as pretty oak furniture and crisp white bedding.

On the first floor you will also discover fabulous high ceilings, exposed beams and a steep open-tread staircase leading up to a second floor, home to a lovely king-size bedroom with calming grey hues and large Velux windows together creating a tranquil space where you can retire to at the end of an action-packed day.

Start your day off right with a rejuvenating shower in the first-floor bathroom, before enjoying a relaxing morning stroll through the garden and along the lake as you sip on a warm cup of tea.

Make the most of your time in the area with a scenic cycle along the mountains.

See the beautiful Pont Minllyn or spend a day in Snowdonia National Park enjoying a scenic hike with unrivalled landscapes, on an outdoor adventure with the children at Zip World or learning to catch a wave with Surf Snowdonia.

For the ultimate group getaway, be sure to stay at Groes Heol.
