Set in a stunning and isolated rural location, surrounded by the owner's fields and on a working farm is this wonderful and contemporary farmhouse, Bryn Mawndy. The cottage is near the peaceful North Wales town of Corwen and on the edge of the pretty little village of Melin y Wig. Slightly further afield is the historic town of Ruthin. Ideal for a family or group wanting to retreat to a peaceful and secluded countryside location, with panoramic views and access to many local amenities, Bryn Mawndy is accessed via a track that leads up and over a hill solely to the farm, with ample parking available for at least five cars. Entering the property into the hallway, head into the open-plan and contemporary-styled, well-equipped kitchen/diner, a bright and spacious area with white tiled flooring, wood-effect grey cabinets, a large Rangemaster cooker for preparing all of your meals and a wooden dining table with seating for eight, ideal for gathering as a group and enjoying dinner together, making plans for the following day. There are patio doors which open up onto a patio at the side of the property, providing fabulous countryside views and offering an ideal space for grabbing a morning coffee and enjoying a peaceful moment to yourself in the sunshine. There's just one step up from the kitchen/diner into the sitting room, which has two leather sofas placed around the woodburning stove, giving the room a lovely cosy feel, while the TV in the corner can provide light entertainment. A second sitting room offers alternate lounging space, with a huge leather L-shaped sofa offering seating for eight and another woodburning stove to snuggle up in front of and get toasty in an evening. There is a utility room with a washing machine and dryer, for your convenience, along with a cloakroom. Heading upstairs, you will find four bedrooms; two king-size bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms and two twins, all decorated with a simplistic, light and bright theme, with a spacious feel and storage for all of your belongings, and all offer spectacular rural views. The family bathroom and two en-suites have a similar contemporary design, with grey tiling and more wonderful countryside views, while the main bathroom has a choice of bath with shower over, so you can start each day however you prefer. The property is surrounded by the owner's fields and you are welcome to roam the field at the front of the property, while the town of Corwen offer plenty of amenities and things to do, including a selection of pubs, restaurants cafés, greengrocers, bakeries, butchers and a children’s play area. Set within the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this picturesque town has plenty of idyllic walks to partake in, including several riverside strolls due to its excellent proximity to five rivers that all meet in Corwen. Foodies will appreciate a visit to the nearby Rhug Estate, one of the UK's largest organic properties and why not dine at one of Wales' finest restaurants, Tyddyn Llan in Llandrillo? Head to Llangollen and enjoy a scenic ride on the Llangollen Heritage Steam Railway or take a horse-drawn canal boat from to Pontcysyllte, Britain’s largest aqueduct and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Corwen is surrounded by history and heritage; learn about Owain Glyndwr, the self-proclaimed Prince of Wales, explore Rug Chapel and Langar Church, climb through the heather to Caer Drewyn, which dates back to 800 BC and is one of the most important Iron Age hill forts, explore the National Trust properties of Chirk Castle and Erddig, as well as the fascinating ruins of Cistercian Valle Crucis Abbey and Castell Dinas Brân, while the historical town of Ruthin is also a short distance from the property. Bala and its famous lake provide a lovely day out, where you can enjoy a picnic and lakeside stroll, while Betws-y-Coed, known as the gateway to Snowdonia, is a short drive away. Head into the national park for incredible walking and hiking trails and if you're feeling adventurous, attempt to tackle Mount Snowdon, at an elevation of 1,085 metres above sea level, it's the highest mountain in Wales. With endless day out opportunities from your doorstep, Bryn Mawndy is a peaceful rural retreat you can return to each day and admire your picturesque setting.

Everywhere was clean and tidy. The instructions before going were very clear. We will definitely be returning Next Year.

The views around are breathtaking and there is plenty of places to enjoy visiting. I think for the cost we had expected a little more luxury, it was too a good standard but didn't go that extra mile. We have stayed at many cottages for holidays and seen how the little touches can really enhance your stay. It would have been good if there has been more cutlery, more crockery and non plastic wine glasses. We would recommend to others families and those wanting a good size property.
