The cottage from adjacent woods.................... October sunset from balcony - photo by Charmaine Hill

imagine...

relaxing on a timber balcony high in the trees, above fields, watching sailing boats on the estuary, beyond which lies the sea fringed by hills and mountains. Include the sun setting over this scene, some bird song, and maybe a glass of something to hand…… this could be a description of your stay at Tree Tops, a Snowdonia cottage that sets a high standard for self catering.

Beautiful walks start at your front door in this area known as Ardudwy in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park. Lanes and footpaths lead down to the coast or inland rise towards the peaks of the Rhinog Mountains. The Cambrian Coast railway stops at Pensarn less than half a mile away and cycle routes are well sign posted. There is one road along the coast and no other routes into the area.

Only minutes from miles of beaches, which are seldom busy, and hill and mountain tracks which can be enjoyed in solitude for much of the time, this Wales cottage is ideally located.

accommodation

Tree Tops is a Snowdonia cottage converted from a two storey building in 2007 and it is furnished in a contemporary style.
The accommodation is ideal for a couple, with comfortable double bed and two seater settee.

The kitchen ( incl. cooker, microwave, washer/drier, fridge etc), dining and living area ( incl. sofa bed, TV/DVD, radio/CD) is upstairs with access to the balcony (table and chairs).
Downstairs is one double bedroom, toilet and shower room, with access to the private garden.
Parking is in front of the house, alongside the lane to the village of Llanbedr past woods and fields.
A gas fired boiler heats the water and powers the central heating.

In the interests of subsequent visitors, we regret pets are not permitted, nor any smoking in the building.
The stairs are steeper than normal and could prove difficult if you have limited mobility.

Good sized kitchen area with mod cons................ and comfort in peaceful bedroom

The MG doesn't come with the cottage!.................keep the weather out but still enjoy the view.
