The property

Located in the quaint village of Penmachno, Conwy, is Dolwen, a traditional, two-bedroom cottage.

Enjoying rural views over the Snowdonia National Park, whilst resting paces away from a hub of local amenities, Dolwen provides the ideal base for outdoor enthusiasts, looking to explore the delights of North Wales; two furry companions are invited.

Park up on the roadside and head through the front door, firstly arriving at the homely sitting room, complete with plush sofas, a TV, a rustling woodburning stove, and original beams overhead.

Continue through to the kitchen/diner, well-equipped to ease your self-catered stay, where you can prepare meals and dine as a family, before locating the lovely sunroom, enjoying views of the garden and open countryside.

If you'd prefer alfresco mealtimes, set the patio table, and dine with the sweeping countryside in the backdrop; you'll also find secure storage in the garden, where you can store your mountain bikes or sporting equipment after a day of adventure.

When sleep calls, head upstairs to two well-appointed double bedrooms, awakening to a refresh in the sleek shower room, set on the ground floor.

On your doorstep you'll find a local convenience store to stock the fridge, and The Eagles Hotel, a dine out option if you don't fancy cooking, whilst the Penmachno MTB Trail is nearby, a popular cycle trail, leading through the national Park and its woodland; additional beauty spots in the area include Rhaeadr Y Graig Lwyd waterfall, picture-perfect lakes for wild swimming, and the National Trust property of Tŷ Mawr Wybrnant,.

Travelling up to Betws-y-Coed, discover the Conwy Valley Railway Museum, or practise your swing at the local golf club, whilst Zip World Fforest and the Adventure Parc Snowdonia are a must visit for the thrill-seekers of your group.

Be spoilt for choice when it comes to adventure-filled activities, with a further Zip World Llechwedd site in Blaenau Ffestiniog, complete with the bounce below underground experience, underground golf, a deep mining tour, and the popular zip line, travelling at 30 feet high, or remain outdoors to hike towards Cwmorthin Waterfall and its tranquil landscape.

Tour North Wales with Dolwen as your abode.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

PENMACHNO

Betws-y-Coed 4 miles.

The small, peaceful village of Penmachno is situated in the beautiful Machno Valley, just 4 miles from the popular town of Betws-y-Coed. Surrounded by woodland, magnificent mountains and flowing rivers, the whole area is a haven for walkers, birdwatchers, mountain bikers and climbers, whilst Betws-y-Coed itself offers a good range of shops, pubs and cafes. Here the River Conwy meets its three tributaries, creating a host of cascading waterfalls, river pools and ancient bridges throughout the surrounding countryside, the most famous of which is the magnificent waterfall at Swallow Falls, situated where the River Llugwy meets with a spectacular chasm, creating a sight not to be missed! The beautiful Conwy Falls are also well worth a visit and are situated in the Machno Valley. With all of Snowdonia to explore and North Wales' Heritage Coastlines also within easy reach, this beautiful location has plenty to offer at any time of year.
