Top 5 Zen Cottages
Published on 4 Sep 2015 by Gwion LlwydThe summer holidays are over and some of us are feeling a little frazzled from having to entertain the children and other family members for the last 6 weeks! So if having a bit of down time and getting away from it all for your next holiday seems like an attractive thought, we have some fantastic cottages that are just the ticket. Whether your looking for a romantic getaway for 2, time out with a group of friends or some chilled out family time without electronics in tow (good luck with that), here are Dioni’s top 5 zen cottages:
1: CWMAIN | SLEEPS 10
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 efficient central heating and fitted kitchen units sit comfortably along side carefully retained character features.
2: HYWEL-SELE LODGE | SLEEPS 3
Described as a semi-ruinous Tudor-Gothic style lodge, this outstanding and unique self catering cottage stands guard over the deer park on the famous Nannau estate and provides secluded deluxe accommodation for guests wanting to explore this beautiful part of Snowdonia.
3: TY-NEWYDD | SLEEPS 2
Ty Newydd is a romantic one bedroom holiday cottage in Bala North Wales. This simple yet elegant cottage provides self catering holiday accommodation for up to two people in a beautifully tranquil location.
4: CAE-HIR | SLEEPS 6
A gem of a holiday cottage off the beaten track, perfect on the outside and even better inside. This eighteenth century stone built farmhouse has been renovated to a very high standard and offers the perfect location for families or groups who are looking to enjoy the great out doors. 6 miles outside Bala, off the beaten track, its an 18th Century stone built farmhouse hidden away among the hills and heather of the Snowdonia National Park. Proper Wuthering Heights type stuff.
