Nestled in the idyllic setting of Rowen near Conwy, North Wales, is this grand five-bedroom, detached house, Y Gorlan.
Formerly the 19th-century village vicarage, Y Gorlan has been extensively refurbished with a large extension added in 2023, to perfectly combine contemporary and traditional elements, as well as enjoying a fantastic location within the Snowdonia National Park, just moments away from the UNESCO World Heritage site of Conwy, making it a superb family-friendly dwelling for a group or family of 10.
The property has previously been awarded five stars by Visit Wales and Visit Wales Cyclists and Walkers Welcome Award. Electric sockets with USB charging points throughout.

Be welcomed into the tastefully decorated sitting room, where you can sink back into the reclining sofas in front of the Sky TV with access to movies, Sky signature and Sports, as the wood burning stove crackles nearby, or retire to the additional large family sitting room, with SKY glass TV and where you will find further plush seating and amazing views of The Carneddau mountain range behind Rowen.

The chef of the group will have found their haven in the beautiful and fully equipped kitchen, by French designer, Mobalpa, where they will have all they need to create culinary delights, ready to serve at the large solid oak dining table with seating for 10.
