The property

Trawsfynydd 4.7 miles.

Situated mid way between Coed y Brenin and the village of Trawsfynydd, you will find the well-appointed holiday cottage Cartref. Ideally situated in Snowdonia National Park and adjacent to the Rhinog mountains, this attractive accommodation makes a fantastic base for families or groups of six who seek an unforgettable stay in Wales.

After returning from an afternoon adventure in the great outdoors throw your mud-splattered clothes into the washing machine located in the handy utility room, before freshening up in the tranquil shower room and joining the rest of the group on the plush leather sofas as you surf the channels on the Smart TV to find a captivating movie to lose yourself in.

Gather snacks from the beautiful stone-coloured kitchen units or prepare a delicious three course diner to be delighted in at the oak dining table, with the help of the many contemporary appliances that sit under the stunning brown worktops.

Retreat to the family bathroom for a relaxing soak in the bathtub, enjoying a moment of peace and quiet before an entertaining evening indoors.

Spend the rest of the evening snuggled on the sofas in the conservatory, whilst admiring the views from the large windows and sipping on a refreshing glass of fizz, as the children enjoy a game of pool or a board game.

When the sun is shining and the weather is warm, indulge is some alfresco dining at the outdoor seating area as you admire the views of the countryside.

Navigate your way towards the bedrooms, each decorated with calming muted tones and finished with a Smart TV, where guests can unpack their belongings into the storage provided, making themselves feel right at home.

Choose between a roomy double bedroom, lovely twin or a gorgeous master bedroom boasting a stylish en-suite shower room.

Travel deep into Snowdonia National park to discover the imposing Mount Snowdon, perfect for those who wish to challenge themselves on a scenic hike to the summit.

Thrill seekers will benefit from a trip to Llechwedd, where you can zip line through the slate caverns or spend the day jumping on the underground trampolines at Bounce Below.

Just down the road is the renowned Coed-y-Brenin Forest with its famous family-friendly mountain biking trails, children's play area and excellent café, or why not cycle around Trawsfynydd Lake which has a famous reputation for its fishing and boat hire.

For an adrenalin filled day why not heard to National White Water at Bala for wild watersports including white water rafting and Canyoning.

Further afield enjoy landmarks such as Bryn Cader Faner or Harlech Castle, where you will also find a delightful beach and local takeout for a tasty portion of fish and chips.

Make memories that last a lifetime at Cartref.
