About this property

In the heart of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, 4 Arthur Terrace is a three-bedroom terrace cottage situated in the middle of the small, attractive village of Penmachno. Discover stylish decor inside and good views from the garden terrace, all the while being within easy reach of a host of attractions nearby including the delightful town of Betws-y-Coed. The front entrance for No 4 is up seven stone steps to the front door, passing a sitting area with bench which catches the afternoon and evening sun. The door opens into the beautiful living/dining room, furnished with vibrant, plush sofas which you can sink into in front of a cosy woodburning stove. The room combines a spacious lounge area with a dining table and chairs at one end. You can feel the warmth from the fire in all areas, either when you’re relaxing and watching the Smart TV in the evening or enjoying a delicious meal at the table. The decorative flooring runs throughout the downstairs and leads to a bespoke kitchen in a traditional oak timber style and granite worktops, with an island preparation area making cooking a pleasure if you’re dining at home. There are a full range of appliances between the kitchen and the handy utility/laundry room, so you have all you need for a self-catered stay. The large sofa in the kitchen is perfect to make it a room where you can relax and socialise with a glass of wine while waiting for your meal to cook. After a busy day of exploring, walking and activities, you can head upstairs to take a moment to relax with a hot soak in the roomy L-shaped bath within the deluxe bathroom, with an overhead shower too for a refreshing way to wake up in the morning. Each bedroom has been lovingly decorated to offer a tranquil sleeping spot for each guest, with neutral tones, crisp and pretty bed linen and plenty of storage for your belongings; choose from the lovely twin, a snug double with access from one side, or the elegant king-size bedroom with a sunny feature yellow wall to brighten up your day first thing. Head outside to discover the fully enclosed, terraced garden split over three levels, with a bistro set just outside the door from the kitchen, a great place for a morning coffee with the paper. Continue up to the third level which brings you to a fantastic decked area with a picnic bench for some alfresco dining and a romantic love seat, perfect for coming together on a summer evening and admiring the views of the surrounding mountains and hills over the rooftops. Here you also find the rear gate and a very short path to plenty of parking. The convenience of parking means that it’s probably the way you will come in and out most days, but the gate also steps you straight onto a footpath running directly uphill into open countryside and the start of so many local walks. The lovely village is home to a welcoming local pub and shop, both less than 3 minute’s walk and catering to all your needs, whilst a wider selection of amenities can be found in the picturesque Betws-y-Coed which is just 5 minutes away by car. Betws-y-Coed is known for the wonderful surrounding landscape which is scattered with waterfalls and woodland, it's the perfect place to stop at for an afternoon treat mid-walk or cycle with plenty of tearooms and cafés to choose from. Penmachno is a great spot for the avid explorer being within the beautiful Machno Valley and just a few miles north from where the Machno and Conwy rivers meet, resulting in a series of stunning waterfalls and the stunning “Roman Bridge”, offering great walks to get to know the surrounding area. Those who delight in thrill-seeking with mountain biking are in for a treat as literally just outside the village you can find Gwydyr Forest and the Penmachno mountain bike trails, home to a great network of scenic trails for all abilities, there's something for everyone! Enjoy the delights of nearby Blaenau Ffestiniog, now acclaimed to be one of the adventure capitals of North Wales, home to Zip World Titan (the longest zip wire in Europe), Bounce Below and Zip Caverns, a subterranean system of trampolines and zip wires deep underground. And of course there is the famous Ffestiniog Steam Railway for something a little more relaxing. Also being in the heart of Eryri (Snowdonia), you’re never more than 25 minutes away from the world famous Welsh mountains - Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), Moel Siabod and Cwm Idwal. With so many popular attractions within easy reach, 4 Arthur Terrace is a great base for your Snowdonia adventures all year round.

Resting in the heart of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park is the charming village of Penmachno, nestled in the Machno Valley and surrounded by stunning woodland, mountain and riverside scenery. The village is home to a local pub and a convenience shop, while the popular town of Betws-y-Coed is just over four-miles away, boasting more amenities as well as being surrounded by a scattering of waterfalls and woodland. Explore the national park by heading out on walks, cycling through mountainous terrain, and enjoying exciting adventure sports like climbing!

    Very clean and well maintained. Communication with owners was great and ease of finding it was great. Would definitely recommend.

  • Kate

    The place was comfortable and clean and tge owners had left a lovely welcome pack for us and our 4 logged friends. We would definitely stay here again.

  • Audrie

    We had 5 adults and a dog and there was plenty of room for all of us. The process for picking up the keys and all the information the owner sends you are really simple and super helpful. Having a carpark at the rear of the property is great. The cottage is done to a high standard e.g the quality of flooring, fixtures etc The kitchen has everything and plenty of it, Great shower, comfy beds, large bath towels which we all commented on as there's nothing worse than a towel that covers only half of you! Great rear yard/garden. The village of Penmachno is super friendly, the Eagle pub is very welcoming and does great food and the local shop has anything you might need. Within a short drive you have the Conwy waterfall walk, Betsy coed and Llanwrst. The only things i would point out for my open and honest review is the TV is tiny in the living room, the stairs are very creaky and the front of the cottage needs a tidy but these did not impact our weekend and would not put me off booking again. Thankyou 4 Arthur Terrace and Penmachno for a lovely weekend, it was a lovely little break that was enjoyed by me and my family and just what we all needed.
