Luxury Farmhouse in Mountain Location | Cwmain

X10
Real FireLarge Cottage
Bala
 
 

Cwmain is an 18th century luxury farmhouse in a mountain location. This traditional stone built welsh cottage has been recently refurbished to a very high standard and sits in an idyllic location high up in the hills of North Wales. Modern facilities such as underfloor heating and fitted kitchen units sit comfortably along side carefully retained character features.

A large entrance hall leads off to a joyful playroom, a spacious utility room complete with washing machine and tumble dryer, a convenient ground floor WC and then finally a wonderful country cottage kitchen. The kitchen includes some nice cream fitted units under a dark work surface all sitting on a quarry-tiled floor. An impressive cooking range sits to one side of the room whilst a large fridge freezer stands proudly near the window. The kitchen is also large enough to accommodate a small breakfast table and chairs. A separate larder ensures that there’s plenty of room for all the supplies that your family will need during your stay.

Family diners can have no better stage than the adjoining dining room. A large oval table is surrounded by some beautiful wooden chairs. A small log fire within a stone helps create a wonderful cozy atmosphere helped, of course, by the warm floor tiles. Some antique furniture and beautiful side lamps add a real touch of class to the room.

The lounge houses another log fire. A larger version this time sitting within a striking inglenook fireplace. A large flat screen tv sits to one side and a sumptuous wrap around sofa curves around the opposite two walls. Some lovely wall lighting and a sash window overlooking the surrounding fields provides light.

We return to the dining room to climb the stairs to the first floor. 5 bedrooms in total. Two double rooms, two twin rooms and one smaller child’s room with some bunk beds. All the bedrooms are beautifully furnished. A perfect mix of colours and fabrics has created individual rooms with their own character whilst sharing a real sense of style and grace. Outdone only by the views from the windows perhaps.

The master bedroom at the far end of the house has its own en-suite bathroom with modern shower. Two more family bathrooms on this floor. One of which has a large enamelled bath in addition to the WC and washbasin. The second family bathroom has a shower, WC and washbasin.

Location

 

As described, the cottage is in an idyllic location. Fields of grazing sheep surround the cottage with panoramic views in every direction beyond. Peace and tranquility is guaranteed and guests are encouraged to explore the surrounding countryside by foot whenever possible.

A 20 minute car journey south however will bring you to the town of Bala. Bala is a charming example of a welsh market town and a wonderful mix of traditional welsh culture and contemporary shops and cafés. The surrounding area has long established itself as a Mecca for adventure activities. You will pass the world renowned Tryweryn white water centre on the way into town. Fishing, sailing and windsurfing can also be enjoyed enjoyed on Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake). The Coed Y Brenin Mountain Biking centre is about half an hour further on.

Sitting as it does on the Eastern edge of the National Park, this part of Snowdonia has the natural benefit of being easily accessible from the English road network. If you continue a little further west however visitors to the cottage can be in the popular tourist town of Betws Y Coed, catching a steam train from Blaenau Ffestiniog or ascending the slopes of Wyddfa (Snowdon) from Llanberis.

We’ve spent Christmas at the cottage and it was perfect! It was very cosy and spacious, very well equiped kitchen, the playroom had loads of toys for the kids and they’ve spent most of the time there. It is very remote but it was exactly what we wanted. Would deffinitely recommend it!

We had a lovely stay over new year. The cottage was amazing, very nice, quiet, remote location with beautiful scenery for 360 degrees around. Drive was generally ok although the track coming down to the house was very bumpy so might not suit a lower car. The bread, eggs and wine were much appreciated! Cottage was beautiful inside and out and managed to withstand the stormy weather (was a very cosy place to hole up!)

A perfect peaceful place to catch up with friends in a stunning country setting. The house is very remote but has enough bedrooms and living spaces for two families, so staying home together in a big cosy space made for a perfect relaxing getaway.

Great place to stay, kids especially enjoyed the play room. Bit difficult to find the place but the host was very helpful with instructions.

A beautiful farmhouse perfect for our mini break away with the grandparents in tow. The house was well equipped, very warm, easy to check in and super comfortable beds. My 3 boys all had a lovely time exploring the house, making use of the play room and watching the sheep and cows from the windows. My eldest is autistic and loved how close we got to the wind turbines too! The only real downside for us was quite how long the farm track to access the house was. We have a large 7-seat family car that isn’t a 4×4 which meant the drive felt somewhat precarious. But the pay off was the quiet and isolation which was fab! So just something to be aware of if you don’t have a car with a good floor height clearance.

We had a fantastic stay, the perfect base for our mountain biking weekend. Clean, tidy, beautiful location. Loads of space which for the 5 of us and all our gear was ideal! Will definitely rebook when we next visit the area.

A lovely peaceful location. Couldn’t recommend enough for a private trip surrounded by nature. The Farmhouse was beautifully stocked and furnished:) 5 stars, would definitely recommend.
