Accommodation details

The Cottage

North Lodge dates back to 1790 and was in former times a gate house to Cors-y-Gedol Hall. Standing proud in its own third of an acre garden just two minutes from sandy beaches and rugged mountains.

The kitchen is fully equipped to today’s highest standards (a fridge, a freezer, electric cooker, a microwave and a dishwasher)
There is a dining area in the kitchen but the inviting dining room with its large oak table makes meals feel a little more special.

The downstairs cloakroom come utility room has a toilet, a washbasin and a washer dryer.

In the lounge, the cottage has been tastefully restored to echo its original high beamed ceiling. What could be nicer after a long day than sitting in front of a roaring fire with a bottle of wine relaxing watching a video, a DVD or just listening to music?

The master bedroom has a king size bed and an en-suite shower room. The view through one of the gothic windows in the twin bedroom is of the Cambrian coastline and the third bedroom has full size bunk beds. These two bedrooms share the main bathroom.

Location

Snowdonia is a contrast of rugged mountains and wooded valleys, rushing streams and peaceful lakes, glorious beaches and boat-dotted harbours.

Five miles south of Ystumgwern Hall Farm lies the seaside resort of Barmouth on the spectacular Mawddach Estuary.

You will find the most glorious ten mile expanse of sandy beaches from Harlech to Barmouth. Visit quaint villages such as Llanbedr, the gateway to Shell Island and Llandanwg with its Celtic church in the sand dunes.

Along the sandy shores is the historic town of Harlech with its impressive castle together with the famous Royal St. David's golf course and an excellent theatre.

Walkers and cyclists will be delighted with the new routes to be found in the nearby area.

The backdrop of our area is the Rhinog mountain range, where you will find some of the most rugged and remote terrain in Wales. Two valleys penetrate the region; Cwm Bychan with its tranquil lake and path to the Roman Steps, and Cwm Nantcol with its challenging peaks, woodland trails and waterfalls.

There are several peaks to be conquered throughout Snowdonia, with varying degrees of difficlty suitable for all levels of fitness and experience. The Snowdon Mountain Railway is definitely the leisurely way of enjoying the magnificence of the peaks. The area is famous for its breathtaking views, open countryside, rugged mountains and peaceful lakes.
