    “Beautiful week in the Welsh countryside in this lovely little hobbit hole.”

    The location is absolutely stunning, you get views of the mountains from every direction. The hob tub is great once it does get up to heat which we had a little trouble with the first couple of days but after speaking with the host they helped us out and by the time we had returned on Monday night, the tub was up to heat and was fantastic to get into after a long day of adventures.

    The location is absolutely stunning, you get views of the mountains from every direction. The hob tub is great once it does get up to heat which we had a little trouble with the first couple of days but after speaking with the host they helped us out and by the time we had returned on Monday night, the tub was up to heat and was fantastic to get into after a long day of adventures. We were welcomed with prosecco, waffles and crisps when we arrived which is a lovely touch. The bed is extremely comfortable, we didn't sleep on the sofa bed but it was very comfy to sit on. The TV doesn't have any signal to pick up normal channels but if you have Netflix or YouTube you can sign in and watch that with no trouble at all. The USB/iPod Music dock didn't work for us which was a shame. The only downside was the endless amount of bluebottle flies which were constantly in the kitchen, this is not down the hosts, I think its the time of year and the location. Amazing stay and great base for adventures in mid wales.

The property

Dinas Mawddwy 4.9 miles.

Surrounded by gorgeous vistas on the edges of Mallwyd near Dinas Mawddwy, North Wales, is this fabulous, detached, single-storey hut of Nant yr Esgair.

Enjoying a fairy-style layout, resting within a grassy mound, Nant yr Esgair also offers gorgeous open-plan accommodation, making for a lovely retreat for a couple or group of four.

Upon arrival, you'll be relieved to uncover three off-road parking spots as well as remote surroundings boasting a mixture of countryside and mountain scenery!

After taking in the sights, make your way inside to find an open-plan living space, where a corner sofa allows you to lounge in front of the Smart TV after a busy day; the sofa is positioned in front of the glass doors, so you can continue to savour the views from the comfort of the hut.

Progress to the kitchen, a compact but well-equipped space, where all you need to rustle up tasty meals can be found, including an electric cooker.

These meals can be tucked into at the breakfast bar or out in the private garden's sheltered decking; afterward, why not enjoy a soothing dip in the oak barrel hot tub?

When night falls, make your way to the welcoming King bedroom; the sitting area's sofa opens out to become a double sofa bed, for added flexibility.

In the morning, soak up in the contemporary shower room's walk-in cubicle before drying off with a toasty towel from the heated rail and venturing out to explore the area.

Choose Nant y Esgair for an idyllic getaway near Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.

Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1100513, together sleeping up to eight guests.

The Huts

The Huts consist of a quirky selection of two huts tucked away in grassy mounds, surrounded by breath-taking scenery on the outskirts of Mallwyd near Dinas Mawddwy, North Wales. This collection offers tastefully furnished open-plan accommodation, off-road parking and private outdoor spaces boasting sheltered decking with seating and a wood-fired, oak barrel hot tub, making it a wonderful base for small families of four or couples looking for something opulent yet unique for their North Wales getaway. The surroundings enjoy an idyllic brook running by, along with a range of peaks resting on the southern part of Snowdonia National Park; hikes can be enjoyed up the summit of Pen Llyn Coch-hwyad as well as along the Llyn Coch-hwyad waterfall walk. When you don't feel like cooking, head to Mallwyd to find The Brigands Inn, where hearty meals can be savoured alongside crisp, local ale; venture past the picturesque landmark of Pont Minllyn to Dinas Mawddwy, a town hosting more friendly pubs, including The Red Lion, along with the Camlan Garden Centre, where you can purchase high quality produce and essentials from the on-site farm shop. Venture to Dolgellau and spend the morning lazing on the plains of the town's parks, before enjoying a leisurely stroll along Afon Mawddach, hiking the Mawddach Trail to Fairbourne or exploring the ruins of Cymer Abbey in Llanelltyd. For some coastal fun, travel further afield to Aberdovey (Aberdyfi), where a charming beach and a local golf club are waiting to be uncovered; further along the coast you'll also be pleased to find the delights of Tywyn and Barmouth! A blissful stay for you and those who mean most awaits at The Huts.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
