    “Whilst we had a great stay at Glyn Awel we would like to point out a few things that might benefit future occupants - a blind or curtains on the downstairs cloak room as it could be a bit embarrassing if people are dining/sitting outside.”

    The door into the porch needs oiling as it speaks very badly. We think a hand rail should be fitted to one side of the stairs as they are quite steep- isn’t one required for building regs? We did have a problem with the dish washer - the outlet pipe was blocked off but we managed to sort that problem out. Apart from these minor problems we thought the house was more than adequately furnished with lots of crockery, cutlery, utensils and pots and pans. Also the welcome package of milk, Bara ...

    The door into the porch needs oiling as it speaks very badly. We think a hand rail should be fitted to one side of the stairs as they are quite steep- isn’t one required for building regs? We did have a problem with the dish washer - the outlet pipe was blocked off but we managed to sort that problem out. Apart from these minor problems we thought the house was more than adequately furnished with lots of crockery, cutlery, utensils and pots and pans. Also the welcome package of milk, Bara Brith and snacks was a nice surprise and very thoughtful of the owners. Thank you once again.

The property

Beddgelert 3.7 miles.

Glyn Awell is a welcoming holiday cottage resting remotely in the picturesque Welsh countryside in Nant Gwynant, within the Eryri National Park.

This property offers spacious bedrooms, a pleasantly designed interior and plenty of nearby sights, making it an ideal escape for a group of family and friends seeking a quiet retreat in the countryside.

Upon entering your new abode, you will find yourself undisturbed by the bustling roads and instead, warmly welcomed by the inviting living room which encourages you to put your feet up in front of the TV while the woodburning stove keeps you all toasty.

At dinnertime, the chefs among you can take to the kitchen to whip up a delightful feast for all before gathering around the dinner table to tuck in and share some friendly conversation along with a glass of wine.

After your days of exploring the lush countryside, take a load off and indulge yourself with a hot soak whether that be a dip in the tub or a much-needed rinse in the shower.

In the warmer months, the enclosed patio invites your party outside to take in the rays of sunshine and partake in some alfresco-style dining.

When the sun sets, the fresh linen of the bedrooms will gently guide you to your rest at the end of the day.

Once you're all ready to explore, why not check out the nearby Llyn Gwynant Lake which is a tranquil destination right on your doorstep possessing mountain views and spots for boating?

Other popular spots are Miner’s Track, National Trust - Craflwyn and Beddgelert and Snowdon.

There are other activities on offer in the area at the National Slate Museum for those interested in history and Y Bistro yn yr Hebog for a lovely meal out.

Find your way to the coastal town of Porthmadog and enjoy the spectacular Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways along with PanIQ Rooms for a fun-filled family day out.

Treat you and your loved ones to this memorable escape at Glyn Awell.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £600.

About the location

BEDDGELERT

Porthmadog 7.7 miles; Caernarfon 12.8 miles.

The picturesque village of Beddgelert lies in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park at the foot of Mount Snowdon. Beddgelert is a bustling village with arts and craft shops, tea rooms, welcoming pubs, including Saracens Head and the Royal Goat, and restaurants, centred around the Afon Glaslyn river. A leisurely stroll along the river will take you to the Aberglaslyn Pass, one of North Wales’s most famous beauty spots. The Welsh Highland Steam Railway passes through the village on its journey from Porthmadog to Caernarfon. Beddgelert is famed for its monument to the Welsh Prince Llewelyn's dog, whom the Prince killed thinking it had attacked and killed his son, only to discover afterwards it had been defending his son from a savage wolf attack. From here, you can easily access Porthmadog, home to a Maritime Museum, the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, the Black Rock Llamas, and Porthmadog Golf Club, as well as Borth y Gest, where you can hike along the Beach Path, spend a day at the beach, and dine at the popular Black Rock Beach Club with stunning sea views, onwards to the Llyn Peninsula and beyond, this is an ideal location for a Welsh holiday.
