Rural pet friendly retreat near Criccieth | Rhos-Ddu
Rhos Ddu is a two-bedroom countryside retreat tucked away just outside Rhoslan, near the seaside town of Criccieth. It’s a property that invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and soak in the sights of Eryri (Snowdonia), with the mighty Yr Wyddfa visible from your upstairs window.
Set on a quiet lane, this detached farmhouse sits amidst open fields and rural calm. A large private garden wraps around the property, perfect for morning coffee in the sun or long, lazy lunches on the patio. For those bringing bikes, surfboards, or other outdoor gear, there’s a garden shed with a lock to keep everything safe and secure.
The location is ideal for lovers of the outdoors. A cycle route runs past the end of the entrance lane, and from the front door you can enjoy a fairly easy four-mile circuit via Lôn Coed, a walk much loved by dog owners and steeped in Welsh history, literature, and poetry.
Inside, you’ll find space to relax, stretch out, and feel immediately at home. The kitchen and dining area is well laid out and smartly equipped, with oak cabinets, granite worktops, and all the kit you need to prepare a proper meal, or just plate up something delicious from the deli in town. The adjacent lounge is a cosy space for evenings in, with a wood-effect stove, comfortable seating and a touch of classic countryside character.
Upstairs, the main bedroom features a king-size bed, calming tones, and a sleek en-suite shower room. Wake up here and you’ll catch views of Yr Wyddfa on a clear day, arguably one of the best ways to start the morning. The second bedroom offers a double bed, and the family bathroom includes a bath with shower over, basin, and toilet.
While the house is a comfortable retreat in its own right, Rhos Ddu also offers something a little different. As part of a working farm, there’s the option to enjoy brown trout fishing or rough shooting in the winter months, both by prior arrangement. Pets are welcome, though this cottage will appeal just as much to non-pet owners looking for a rural bolthole with charm, comfort, and glorious mountain views.
