About this property

Tucked away in the quaint village of Llangybi near Chwilog in Gwynedd, next to the owner's home, is this fantastic two-bedroom Grade II listed cottage, Bryn Aber Bach. Enjoying a superb location within a conservation area, as well as an interior which has been finished to a high standard and perfectly blends contemporary and traditional touches, Bryn Aber Bach makes for a wonderful pet-friendly dwelling for two couples or a family of four plus their canine companion who are looking for their next adventure to North Wales. Park up on the spacious driveway, before unloading your bags and taking in your peaceful surroundings. Step inside your home-from-home for the trip and unlace your walking boots in the convenient porch area, before hanging your coats and giving your pawed pal a quick towel dry and heading into the main living areas. Be welcomed into the well-equipped kitchen, where you can look forward to whipping up flavourful dishes with the help of the electric oven, hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and handy dishwasher, ensuring a fuss-free clean-up! Settle down at the dining table for four as you tuck-in to a delicious meal and make plans for the days ahead, followed by a delicious frothy coffee from the Nespresso coffee maker. If the weather is nice, why not take advantage and fire up the barbecue in the rear enclosed garden and dine alfresco, as your four-legged friend stretches their legs? If you’re not ready for the evening to end, treat yourself to an indulgent soak in the bubbling hot tub for a night under the stars. Retreat inside to the sitting room, where you can snuggle up on the three-seater sofa and select your favourite film from the Smart TV, or choose a book to enjoy on one of two quality armchairs, as the woodburning stove crackles nearby. As your eyes grow heavy, climb the stairs to the first floor where you will find two well-presented king-size bedrooms, one with TV and en-suite bathroom, the other with en-suite shower room, both perfect for preparing for the day in style. Explore your local surroundings where, just a stone’s throw away, you will find the Cadw Heritage site of St Cybi’s Well, where you can wander the historic surroundings of a secluded holy well that rests at the base of the Llŷn Peninsula. Take the short drive over to Chwilog, where you can sample the local delights in the welcoming Y Madryn pub, ideal for those evenings where you fancy a night off from the kitchen, along with the popular Povey Butchers, where you can stock up on ingredients and essentials to enjoy in the comfort of Bryn Aber Bach. Next stop is the bustling town of Criccieth, home to an impressive castle built by the former Welsh prince, Llywelyn the Great, and the beautiful Criccieth Beach, where you can bathe on the sands, paddle the shores or build sandcastles with the little ones. Venture into the Snowdonia National Park, where you can embark up the famous 3,560-ft Snowdon Peak which offers incomparable views across the park, or if you don’t fancy making the hike, the Eryri (Snowdon) Mountain Railway is available from the village of Llanberis. There are scenic walking trails aplenty, as well as the historic village of Beddgelert, where you can visit the renowned Gelerts Grave or hop aboard a vintage steam train at the heritage railway station. With endless opportunities to make long-lasting memories, choose Bryn Aber Bach for your next holiday.

Near the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park in North Wales, Chwilog is a small settlement in an area known for its stunning scenery and diverse hiking opportunities. Just a mile from the settlement, the Afon Wen river empties into the sea. Criccieth, a lovely beach village with a 13th century castle perched on a rocky outcrop overlooking Tremadog Bay and the Snowdonia mountains, is only a short drive away from the coast. The town's two beaches will satisfy watersports enthusiasts, while the Snowdonia National Park is just a short drive away for walkers and cyclists. While you're there, don't forget to stop by one of the many taverns, restaurants, and tearooms to sample Cadwalader's famed ice cream.

    Everything we needed for our stay was provided lovely crockery, glassware and cutlery. The furnishings were thoughtful and of good quality. The hot tub is a lovely touch. The hosts were welcoming and very knowledgeable about the area. From the pre visit email from the owners to the welcome basket and card on our arrival we really felt appreciated. We would not hesitate to re-book or to recommend this property for a peaceful stay in a beautiful area

  • Hal

    It's very well appointed, warm, comfortable and relaxing. The hot tub is excellent, listening to birds sing while wallowing after a long slog up a mountain was great!

  • Nichola

    The hosts were very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. The cottage was very cosy and warm, and the welcome basket was wonderful, especially the brownies. I will be making a return visit in the near future.
