Ty Bwlcyn, Gwynedd

A pretty detached farmhouse set in the beautiful countryside in the hamlet of Dinas. Ty Bwlcyn boasts a stunning location ideal for families and friends coming together to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A 17th century farmhouse with period style sash windows and exposed stone walls, you won't be disappointed by lack of authenticity. Step straight into the fully equipped kitchen where you can cook up a meal or two with all the modern appliances you need. This cottage features a secret bedroom which is camouflaged within wooden panels; a hideout retreat for the kids to enjoy. Sit out and enjoy a refreshing beverage on the private patio or the large private gardens where you can light the barbecue for an alfresco evening. The beautiful Llyn Peninsula is a short trip away, those looking for a day at the beach will be spoilt for choice, while the popular village of Abersoch is famous worldwide for watersports. Pwllheli is the ideal family day out with its attractions, while both Criccieth and Harlech are dominated by stunning castles. Mountain bikers will be in their element, and for something a little different, why not check out the Centre for Alternative Technology or the Owain Glyndwr centre in Machynlleth. Alternatively, head inland and take on the challenge of Mount Snowdon, offering superb vistas at the summit, or find adventure at Zip World and Bounce Below, resting in the dramatic Penrhyn Quarry. Ty Bwlcyn is a welcoming base from which to tour this scenic part of Wales.
