Luxury Snowdonia holiday cottage in Dolgellau, North Wales. A perfect base for your Snowdonia National Park holiday or climbing Cader Idris. The best of beach and mountain.
This cosy and characterful stone-built former schoolhouse, situated on a quiet street in the historical town of Dolgellau offers the convenience of town facilities with immediate access to all that Snowdonia National Park has to offer. We love Dolgellau's tall buildings of grey dolerite stone and slate, along with its web of narrow streets which have evolved and developed haphazardly over four centuries. One of over 200 listed buildings in Dolgellau, the highest concentration in any Welsh town, Tŷ Eryri dates back to the late 1700s.
The cottage was completely renovated for Summer 2020 by an antique trader and an artist. It retains its original features, including a spectacular twelve-foot tall sash window that spans all three storeys of the property and a solid oak bedroom wall and huge inglenook fireplace, all sympathetically restored. Tŷ Eryri has been furnished with antique furniture, textiles, and lighting throughout, much of which is local to the area.
There is a stone-walled garden to enjoy with facilities and the gentle sound of the river Arran which flows just behind the property. You have a beautiful river walk directly from the front door and the start of the renowned Mawddach Trail across to Barmouth is just a few minutes walk away (passing by the town cycle hire should you wish to do the trail by bike).
A two-minute walk puts you in the heart of the town of Dolgellau where there are shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs, a wine bar, a Tapas bar, banks, buses, takeaways, and more. Nestled between the mountains and the sea, Dolgellau is architecturally beautiful and all around you is the wildness of Snowdonia.
