Rhiw Goch Cottage Set in Breathtaking Gardens | Cottage in Betws-y-Coed
1 Bedroom Cottage in Gwynedd- Snowdonia, Betws-y-Coed
Rhiw Goch Cottage is a spacious detached one bedroom stone-built cottage dating from the 18th century or earlier. It has a wood burner which also provides central heating. Our guests love the cottage for it's rustic charm and beautiful gardens with landscaped areas, secluded glades and viewpoints over the valley set in 17 acres of craggy ancient woodland full of wildlife. At about 4 miles from Betws-y-Coed, it's well placed to explore Snowdonia but also well off the beaten track.
The cottage is detached from the main house across a courtyard and you're welcome to enjoy the gardens and picnic tables. It has it's own parking space and patio plus table and chairs with views over the garden. We welcome couples, groups of friends or families with children over the age of 10. It is not suitable for unsupervised younger children due to ponds and craggy rocks.
There is one large en suite bedroom with one kingsize bed and an adult size bunk bed (max weight on top 12 stone, 170lb, 75kg). The rest of the cottage is open plan. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge with small freezer compartment, toaster, oven and hob. The living room has the wood burner, a 2 seater sofa and 2 easy chairs and a DVD-Blu Ray player with a large selection of DVD's to choose from. The dining room has a large table for 4 people and a 2 seater sofa, where you can enjoy view of the gardens through a large window.
The cottage is heated mostly by the wood burner which runs 3 radiators. It will be ready laid for you to light and enough wood is supplied for a fire every evening. There are additional electric heaters. The hot water for taps and shower is heated by electric automatically and is boosted when the wood burner is used.
The main living areas have slate floors (which can be cold without indoor shoes). Bedding and tea towels are provided; TOWELS ARE NOT ROUTINELY PROVIDED BUT ARE AVAILABLE ON REQUEST. Washing up liquid, sponge cloths and kitchen roll are provided for the kitchen and sanitising hand wash and toilet rolls in the bathroom. No other toiletries are provided.
The property is on a quiet hillside surrounded by woodland in the Lledr valley. Pont-y-Pant train station is roughly ½ a mile away. The nearest village is Dolwyddelan a 5 min drive away which has a Spar shop and pub - these are not within walking distance as there is no footpath along the A470.
The cottage is great for walkers and mountain bikers, with woodland trails round Llyn Elsi (lake) straight from the door, the Gwydir Forest (Marin) Trails and Penmachno trails are nearby and the brilliant Coed-y-Brenin trails are a 30 min drive. Pen-y-Pass for walking Snowdon is about a 20 mins drive and the mountain walks up Moel Siabod start with a long walk or a 5 min drive. There is a rhyolite crag called Rhiw Goch Boulders with some good climbing a short walk from the cottage.
Betws-y-Coed is 4 miles away with good cafes, restaurants and shops. Zipworld Fforest and Slate Caverns are a short drive away. Blaenau Ffestiniog is famed for its steam railway and is about 7 miles away as is Llanrwst for food shopping. Anglesey with it’s stunning beaches and Portmerion tourist village are both a 40 min drive.
A good mobile signal may require a walk into the gardens (by which time you may have forgotten all about that call you need to make!) and wifi is provided for the cottage, although being so far from a main road, the internet up here is not up to usual standards. The wifi is under your control to turn on or off.
FOR THE LESS ABLE BODIED: unfortunately we cannot accept bookings for the anyone in your party who cannot climb through the ground floor bedroom window. This is due to current fire regulations. The bedroom is and "inner room" with access to the exit door only through another room.
