    “A warm welcome awaited us at Bod Feurig as the kind guardians, just next door, had switched on the heater!”

    Thank you Bob and Josephine. The Cottage was spotless, extremely warm, especially with the lovely wood-burner in the evenings and the well appointed double bedroom was very comfortable with great views of the gorgeous countryside from the full floor to ceiling windows. Yes, the kitchen is small but has everything you could possibly need to rustle up a delicious meal for two. A real treat, after a long walk, was to relax in the bath with a glass of wine - and... yet again, another window with a ...

    Thank you Bob and Josephine. The Cottage was spotless, extremely warm, especially with the lovely wood-burner in the evenings and the well appointed double bedroom was very comfortable with great views of the gorgeous countryside from the full floor to ceiling windows. Yes, the kitchen is small but has everything you could possibly need to rustle up a delicious meal for two. A real treat, after a long walk, was to relax in the bath with a glass of wine - and... yet again, another window with a spectacular view of the mountains! Great location for getting around the area but quite a drive up to the village - so if you love great walks, DIY cooking and snuggling up together in the evenings - book this cottage - you won't be disappointed!

The property

Set in the quiet, rural village of Y Fron, just over 6 miles from Caernarfon, North Wales lies this quaint holiday cottage, Bod Feurig.

Ideal for hosting families or small groups, this property offers a wealth of stunning views, serving as a perfect base for those looking to explore Y Fron and the surrounding countryside.

Kick off your muddy boots before you make the most of the quaint living room where you can relax and unwind by the woodburning stove whilst watching a film on the Smart TV, whip up delicious meals with family in the fully-fitted kitchen before taking a seat in the dining room, the perfect spot to catch up on the day’s activities.

Head upstairs, where the double bedroom invites you to sleep and rejuvenate, whilst the second bedroom with a single bunk bed is perfect for younger ones who want to rest their heads after a long day out.

What a little gem ‘Bod Feurig’ is-a traditional rustic cottage snuggled in the village of Fron.

This quiet little village boasts spectacular views towards the Menai Straits, wonderfully central for a wide variety of days out.

North Wales is renowned for its narrow gauge railways, including within easy reach, the Snowdon Mountain Railway, Llanberis Lake Railway, Ffestiniog Railway, and Welsh Highland Railway.

The Welsh Highland Railway runs between Caernarfon and Porthmadog, and offers what must be one of the great railway journeys of the world.

Slate quarrying was a huge industry in the 19th century, relics of which abound.

Fron was a key player, and many of the track beds of the tramways around the village are now easily graded footpaths.

At Inigo Jones and Llechwedd (Blaenau Ffestiniog), visitors may try their hand at working slate themselves.

Castles are a prominent feature of the Welsh coastline, the nearest of which is in Caernarfon.

In addition, there are the remains of Segontium-a Roman fort.

Caernarfon was the location for the Investiture of the then Prince Charles as Prince of Wales in 1969, and ‘The Crown’ in 2019.

Closer to Fron is the Pant Du vineyard at Pen y Groes, offering good wines and delightful cider.

Further afield is the Tyddyn Mawr golf course at Llanrug, beaches at Dinas Dinlle, and Black Rock Sands at Morfa Bychan.

There are salmon in the rivers, art galleries and craft centres, and helicopter rides from Caernarfon Airport.

At Minfordd the Italianate village of Portmeirion nestles along the shore of the Dwryd, where the 'Prisoner' series featuring Patrick McGoohan as No.

6, was set.

For younger visitors, there is a wide choice of exciting activities, including go-karting (Glasfryn go-carting), zip wire flying (Bethesda, and Llechwedd), and a range of activities at Greenwood Forest Park, Y Felinhelli.

Something for all ages, and whatever the weather.

Hungry?

There are several Michelin-starred restaurants dotted around, supplemented by purveyors of traditional fish & chips, and Indian, Chinese, and Pizza takeaways.

Beddgelert is the home of Glaslyn Ices, reputed to be the finest ice cream in the world.

They also do excellent pizzas.

At Beddgelert, learn about the brave hound Gelert, which died to save a child, and see the statue in its memory.

Whatever you choose to do, have fun, enjoy Wales, and at the end of a busy day, relax in front of a real log fire.

All of this and much more awaits you during your stay at Bod Feurig.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
