A fabulous, newly renovated property, Ty-Gobaith (Hope House) is a historic and elegant town house in the heart of Dolgellau, packed full of character and traditional features. Set across four levels including a mezzanine, there are three bedrooms sleeping six in total. The location, in the heart of Dolgellau, is ideal for exploring the town as well as the nearby coastline, mountains and forests.

The front door from the street opens into a sizeable hallway with coat hooks, a chair and shoe and boot storage. To the left is both a kitchen, breakfast room and a gorgeous lounge diner. Original features of the historic property are present throughout. The cream coloured units in the kitchen are stylish with a white stone effect worktop and include a built in eye level oven and grill, gas hob, dishwasher and free standing fridge freezer. A small breakfast table with two seats is positioned at the other end of the room in a bright spot next to the window. Heading through into the lounge diner, this stunning room also shows off the property's historical features with a beautiful inglenook fireplace built into the stone wall to one end. A log burner is located within the fireplace on a slate hearth surrounded by brass accessories and string lights. Two armchairs are positioned around the fireplace, and opposite, a six seater traditional farmhouse dining table is the perfect spot for social evenings in. There is also an incredibly useful utility room with a washing machine, dryer, games, and a working area.

Heading up to the first floor, the layout comprises a double master bedroom, a twin room, which can be made into a superking and family bathroom. The double room is a wonderful space with cream coloured walls and pale carpet, contrasting with the dark wood ceiling beams above. A white wooden framed double bed is positioned to one side with bedside tables and lamps. The opposite end of the room features a large chest of drawers, clothes storage cupboard and an additional table with lamp, alongside a charming wooden rocking chair. A stable door opens out onto a decked balcony to the rear of the property, maximising the outdoor space. The second bedroom, a twin, is a cosy space with two divan single beds, (which can be made into a Super King size on request) alongside traditional furniture and a built in cupboard for clothes storage. Decor is in the same style as the main bedroom, creating a consistent feel throughout the house. The main bathroom is beautifully decorated with Victorian style bathroom units including a basin, WC and bath with shower over. The decor consists of a mix of wood panelling and ceramic wall tiles finished in bright white and pale blue.

With a quirky layout to the building, the second floor of this elegant town house in the heart of Dolgellau features a double height lounge with a games room area. With a vaulted ceiling and tall windows, this fabulous space features two large sofas opposite each other, side tables, a Smart TV and an impressive stone fireplace with a log burner. A table football game is located away from the seating area, ideal for the kids and competitive adults to challenge each other. A door from this area leads into a secondary bathroom with basin, WC and walk in shower cubicle. Completing the layout of the property, a staircase leads up to a mezzanine bedroom located above the lounge. With a superking bed, which can be split into twin beds, a chest of drawers and side chair, there are electric Velux windows in the pitched roof to allow in natural light.

Location

 

With a town centre location, this elegant town house in the heart of Dolgellau has a practical and attractive outdoor area and garden at the back of the property as well as steps up to the first floor balcony, also accessed from the double bedroom. The balcony provides a sheltered access into the rear of Ty-Gobaith, with a great bike storage area as well as log storage for those cosy log burners. It's only a short walk from the property to all the amenities the town offers, from pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops. Dolgellau is a great base to explore Southern Eryri (Snowdonia) as well as the coastal areas nearby. There are also some fantastic walks including the Mawddach Trail, a nine mile walking route following an old disused railway line from Dolgellau to Barmouth - a wonderful seaside resort with a lovely beach. For more experienced hiker looking for a challenge, the walking route to Cader Idris, the highest mountain in Southern Snowdonia, is about 15 minutes drive away. The hike is quite a challenge but the views are worth the hard work.

For mountain bikers, Coed-y-Brenin Forest Park is a relatively short drive away. This scenic woodland is home to some world class biking trails, as well being home to a visitor centre and a number of walking trails. Mountain Bikes and E-Bikes are available for hire if desired. Water sports lovers should take a short drive to nearby Bala, where the Bala Adventure and Watersports Centre at Llyn Tegid provide activities including kayaking, windsurfing, sailing and paddle boarding. For a more relaxing experience, rowing boats are available to hire. This area of Southern Snowdonia is a fabulous base for a trip to North Wales. With epic mountain scenery, dense forests and spectacular coastline, it's a great alternative to the busier spots in the heart of the National Park.

We had a lovely week in Dolgellau at Ty-Gobaith. The space is relaxing and comfortable, clean and well-equipped. The house is extremely convenient for all the pubs, restaurants and shops in the village. We found the village relatively quiet, considering it was the middle of the school holidays and compared to North Snowdonia, and we wondered why we’d never been before! We didn’t get a chance to sit out in the garden, as the weather wasn’t great, but it would be pleasant on a sunny day. Would recommend.

What a beautiful house, full of character!
The top floor lounge with its high ceilings is a great place to relax after an energetic day’s walking or biking.
We had a lovely stay – the house had all you would need.
The town centre and local Co-op are only a short walk away, with some scenic walks starting from the town too.
A great base to explore this area of Wales!

We loved the house, the town and area. Dolgoch falls, the Precipice walk and Harlech beach were lovely. We visited most of the restaurants in the town.

Loved the house. The stairs kept us fit. Did the precipice walk and a great cycle ride to Coed y Brenin, and a de tour up river to see the waterfalls on the Afon Gain and Afon Mawddach. Excellent Lunch in Barmouth/ Y Bermo at Fanny Talbot, highly recommended

Firstly what a wonderful house. It’s quirky features and lovely decor make it a home from home, and a cosy relaxing stay right in the centre of Town, but so quiet and peaceful. There are so many great walks around, would recommend using the books in the dining room. We did the walks with the dogs and it was lovely. We walked from Town up into the hills also. Walk 15 in Kitti wake book is stunning, but whoever wrote about the tricky section was correct. It was a real challenge to find the path but worth the view from Braich Ddu though. The local business for food and drink were all great and we tried a few. Excellent breakfast at the Tafarn Y Gadair, beer and cocktails at beachwood is nice.

What a house! Comfortable, warm and the beds! Fantastic little centre with great pubs! The Weather didn’t stop us, even though Fairbourne Beach was very windy! Only here for a short stay but loved every minute thank you. Lexi loved her walks.

Visit the beaches whatever the weather, the bakery has amazing cakes. Visit George the third for food and a walk

Just got back from a fabulous stay at this wonderful holiday home. The cottage is really spacious with room for everyone. It is very well equipped and had everything we needed for a home from home stay. The village itself is cute with a number of shops and pubs – there is a big Co-op to do a shop or a smaller Spar in the village. We ate at The Ship Inn which was good and we had takeout from the Lemongrass (Indian) and from the local Chinese. The village is close to some great spots, we drove to the seaside at Barnmouth, we had a day doing watersports at Bala, a trip to Portmerion and lovely walks along the Mawddach trail. Our dog was limping quite badly and the local vet saw him straight away and gave him some anti inflammatory medicine and some painkillers – which was important for us as we were worried we wouldn’t be able to enjoy the rest of our stay! Richard, the host was extremely quick to answer any queries we had. All in all a fabulous half term break. Would highly recommend.
