Cottage with garden

Nestled on the outskirts of the seaside village of Fairbourne, Gwynedd on the fringes of Snowdonia National Park is Hen Bopty. This historic, stone-fronted cottage boasts charming original features such as exposed beams, stone feature fireplace with woodburning stove, sloped ceilings and white-washed stone walls; a homely setting for couples or small families and their beloved canine companion. After exploring the surrounding countryside and nearby coast, snuggle up in front of the welcoming glow of the woodburning stove while your partner rustles up a hearty meal in the fully equipped kitchen. Dine together as a family while discussing your itinerary for the trip before stepping outside to the rear garden to admire the breath-taking views across the Welsh countryside. When the stars fill the sky, head inside to wash off the day in the ground-floor bathroom ahead of climbing the stairs to get some well-earned rest in either the king-size or twin bedroom. Hen Bopty which means Old Bakery in Welsh lies paces away from local stores where you can stock up on necessities, and the Penrhyn Bar and Grill which provides the perfect setting for date night, or a meal out when you don't feel like cooking. Spend the day at Fairbourne Beach where water sports and kite surfing are popular, there is also a dog-friendly section where your dog can roam freely, and no trip to the seaside would be complete without ice cream! Barmouth is also nearby, housing a spectacular stretch of golden sands perfect for soaking up the sun in warmer weather and boat trips where you may be lucky enough to spot dolphins in Cardigan Bay. Snowdonia National Park is easily accessible by car and provides keen ramblers and cyclists with a myriad of trails rewarding guests with wonderful views; the brave among you may even summit Snowdon for truly unique vistas across the coast and countryside. Adventure awaits at Hen Bopty. In the Snowdonia National Park, between the stunning Cambrian Mountains and Barmouth Bay, sits the beach community of Fairbourne.
