About this property

Romantic Stone built cottage with Log burner


Stone Built Studio Cottage in Maerdy, Near Bala, North Wales - Peaceful Rural Location With Walks and Wildlife From Cottage Door, amazing dark skies for a spot of stargazing.
Comfortable, cosy with underfloor heating and nestling in upland-grazing land at about 1,000 feet elevation, this one-bedroom (one double-bed, sleeping two people) studio cottage has views down the valley and to the mountains beyond. The cottage has panoramic views towards Moel Famau to the north and the Berwyn range to the east and towards the Snowdonia range and Cadair Idris to the west and south. Located at the gateway to the Snowdonia National Park (on the edge of the Hiraethog region) but despite its rural location is closely accessible to the A5 trunk road and only 35 miles from Chester, 13 miles to LLangollen, 9 miles to Bala (with its lake and water sports ) and 18 miles from Betws –y- Coed. There is a local pub (the Goat Inn) within walking distance from the studio cottage and fabulous breakfasts and fine dining (lunchtimes and occasional evenings) at Rhug organic farm a couple of miles down the road .
Ideal for walks from the front door, a glass of wine or just relaxing in front of the wood burner in the conservatory enjoying the views or outside if weather permits; or as a cosy base to come back to after a day of walking or outdoor adventures with nearby Get Wet Adventure Company or White water rafting.

Perfect Stay

We had the most perfect stay at this beautiful, private cottage! From the moment we arrived, it felt like a peaceful retreat. The cottage was impeccably clean, thoughtfully designed, and equipped with everything I could possibly need. The surroundings were serene, offering complete privacy and a true escape from the hustle and bustle.The cozy interiors, comfortable furnishings, and warm ambiance made it feel like a home away from home. The outdoor space was equally delightful…The hosts were incredibly attentive without being intrusive, ensuring my stay was seamless and stress-free. I can’t recommend this place highly enough and will definitely be returning. If you’re looking for a tranquil, private getaway, this cottage is absolutely perfect!
