Cute Newly Renovated Cottage on the banks of River Seiont | Glan-Morfa

With a picturesque and secluded waterside location, Glan-Morfa is a cute newly renovated cottage on the banks of River Seiont within walking distance of Caernarfon. The property combines a classic cottage style alongside some modern touches, providing a cosy Scandinavian feel in the heart of Wales. With two bedrooms, one of which is set up with bunk beds, the property is ideally suited to a couple or small family who are looking to explore this stunning part of North Wales.

Visually stunning, the whitewashed two storey cottage is traditional in style with a perfectly symmetrical design featuring a central doorway, with sash windows to both sides. Entering the characterful property through the front door leads into an open plan living space taking up the complete ground floor. Beautifully renovated by the owners Delyth and Iwan (a skilled carpenter), their design flare and influence can be seen throughout the property. The furniture has been carefully chosen, many reclaimed or refurbished to create a unique environment, although there are hints of colour schemes that run through.

Welsh slate flooring is laid throughout, which is always warm and cosy due to the underfloor heating. The whitewashed plaster walls, along with the exposed wooden beams and wood panelled ceiling, create a classic and traditional feel. To the right of the doorway, the cottage's beautiful kitchen and dining area is well equipped for guests wanting to self-cater during their stay. A large retro sink unit sits against the front wall with garden and river views, leading around to a traditional Welsh dresser along with gas oven and hob. A small countertop and cupboard unit is located next to the oven, along with a large central island counter. Both are finished in a striking blue colour and provide plenty of prep and storage space, as well as a substantial wine storage. A round wooden retro dining table and chairs sit to the edge of the kitchen area against the rear wall, which shows off the exposed stone of the building.

Passing the Scandi style slatted wall that partly disguises the staircase, the opposite side of the living space provides a wonderful and cosy lounge area with rug laid over the tiled floor. A two seater sofa, armchair and side chair (all in very different and unique styles) surround a lovely fireplace with slate mantel and a Clearview log burner, perfect for those cosy nights in. A large bookcase sits to one side of the chimney breast, with a side dresser and lamp to the other, both items of furniture continuing the blue wooden finish from the kitchen.

Heading upstairs in this cute newly renovated cottage on the banks of River Seiont, the first floor features two bedrooms and a stunning large bathroom. Solid Ash floorboards fitted throughout the first floor, with bespoke oak doors. The main bedroom, a beautiful double built into the eaves of the cottage, is big and bright. An ornate white metal framed bed takes centre stage with a traditional grey Welsh Blanket. A mix of furniture styles including white traditional style chest of drawers, dressing table and wardrobe contrast with a dark wood side table and lamp. The second bedroom includes bunk beds, the bottom bunk being a standard single sized bed and a high level bunk built into the roof space which not suitable for a young child as the bed is positioned higher than standard bunk bed. The styling of this bedroom is very modern with solid wooden furniture and clean lines, along with bold colours in the soft furnishings. The cottage bathroom completes the first floor layout. A bright and spacious room including a traditional Victorian style WC and basin that sit alongside a gorgeous freestanding bath with rainforest shower head over.
