About this property

This renovated 1950s fairground travelling-van overlooks the Mawddach Estuary near Dolgellau in the southern reaches of the Snowdonia National Park. Situated at the head of the beautiful Cwm-Mynach Valley, an area popular with walkers, cyclists and mountain bikers.

The Showman’s Wagon is a renovated 1950s fairground travelling-van overlooking the Mawddach Estuary near Dolgellau in the southern reaches of the Snowdonia National Park in Wales.

Sleeping two guests in a double bed, the centrally-heated van also features a sitting room with a cosy wood burning stove, a shower room, and galley kitchen with dining area. The entire living space covers approximately 33 square metres.

Outside, a small enclosed garden faces the estuary and forms the perfect spot for the first coffee of the morning or a well-deserved sundowner after the day’s adventures.

Set in amongst woodland overlooking the beautiful Mawddach estuary in the southern reaches of the Snowdonia National Park in North Wales, the Showman’s Wagon lies between the small pretty market town of Dolgellau and the popular seaside town of Barmouth. It is at the head of the beautiful Cwm-Mynach Valley, meaning 'the valley of the monks', historically owned and farmed by nearby Cymer Abbey. The area is a popular destination for walkers, cyclists and mountain bikers.

Additional Information:

Up to two well-behaved dogs welcome by prior arrangement (small additional charge).

EV charging point available for guests' use.

A few essentials including bread, butter, eggs, milk and fruit juice are provided with the owner's compliments.

Bike rental is available on-site at Coed Cae B&B next door to the Wagon.

Please note that due to the nature of the property there are some irregular wooden steps leading to the Wagon and some narrow spaces within.

Sorry, no children or infants.
