The property

Tucked away in the charming hamlet of Prenteg near Porthmadog, Gwynedd, is this wonderful former quarryman’s cottage, 2 Bryn Eglwys.

Enjoying a superb location in the stunning Snowdonia National Park, with exceptional walks and bike rides right from your front door, 2 Bryn Eglwys is a fantastic family-friendly choice for couples, friends and families.

The property benefits from off-road parking in the adjacent free park, and a sloping lawned garden with furniture and barbecue, perfect for evening drinks or alfresco dining with a view.

On the ground floor, you will find a well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can cook up family favourites, ready to enjoy at the dining table as you recount the day's adventures.

After dinner, make your way through to the inviting sitting area, where you can fire up the woodburning stove, before settling down to watch a film on the TV with a DVD player.

Head upstairs, where you will find a contemporary bathroom, where you can freshen up in the walk-in shower or indulge in a leisurely soak in the bath.

When sleep calls, retire to one of three tastefully decorated bedrooms, a double, a twin and a single, all ideal for catching up on some well-deserved rest.

Wander around the hamlet, where you can visit the wildlife rich Bywyd Gwyllt Glaslyn Wildlife – Ospreys for leisurely strolls, visit the nearby Aberdunant Hall, where you will find an on-site restaurant and a bar, tire the little ones out at the playground just across the road, or amble up to the lovely 3-ft waterfall nearby.

For a wider selection of amenities and attractions, head to Porthmadog, where you can explore the Maritime Museum, embark on a walk with the Black Rock Llamas, hop aboard the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, dine at The Australia and The Port Café Deli & Restaurant.

Nearby, you can visit the popular Black Rock Sands Beach Club, spend a day on the beach, and test out your swing at the excellent golf club.

Venture into the Snowdonia National Park, where you can tackle the word-famous Snowdon Peak, visit the World Heritage Site of Blaenau Ffestiniog, where you can explore underground mines at Zip World Llechwedd, explore the fascinating Dolwyddelan Castle, wander the treetops at Zip World Fforest at Betws-y-Coed.

Continue to explore the National Park, where you will find the legend rich village of Beddgelert, or the Llyn Peninsula, where you will find Pwllheli and Criccieth, home to a magnificent castle.

All this and more awaits you with a stay at 2 Bryn Eglwys.

About the location

PRENTEG

Porthmadog 4 miles.

The small village of Prenteg stands at the foot of the Moel Ddu Mountain, close to Tremadog Bay, and is surrounded by the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Historically a slate and copper mining community, the village is today renowned for the regular sightings of Wales' only nesting Osprey. Just 4 miles away, aside the Glaslyn Estuary, the bustling harbour town of Pothmadog is alive with an exciting marina and an array of individual shops and restaurants, whilst being home to the historic Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Heritage Railway. The picturesque cliffs and coves and enormous Black Rock Beach makes for an idyllic day out, whilst the fabulous Italianate village of Portmeirion is a must. With the medieval castles at nearby Criccieth, Harlech and Caernarfon and a host of excellent walking and cycling opportunities within easy reach, this is an ideal location for enjoying all that Snowdonia and the Llyn Peninsula have to offer. Several beautiful sandy beaches can be found within a 10-20 minute drive. Harlech beach where the golden sands are 4 miles long, backed by a fantastic dune system and one of North Wales’ best golf courses (Royal St David’s), Borth-y-Gest, a hidden gem, Shell Island, Black Rock Sands, and we can’t forget Porthdinllaen, where a walk around the picturesque peninsula takes you to the Ty Coch Inn on the beach, rated one of the top 10 best beach bars in the world. There is an abundance of great beaches on the Llyn Peninsula including Porth Oer Beach, known as Whistling Sands due to the way the sand “squeaks” under your feet which is also a great spot for surfing/body boarding and a great beach café.
