Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 4 - Glaspwll, Powys

Escape to this spacious barn, ideal for friends, families, and furry companions, nestled in the breathtaking countryside on the outskirts of Snowdonia National Park. The thick stone walls hide a sociable open-plan interior warmed by a cracking wood burner, and outside, make the most of the woodland garden for al fresco dining moments. Step into the welcoming embrace of this single-storey barn, accessed via a farm track winding through magnificent woodland.

Embrace creature comforts with underfloor heating and a snug wood burner as you enter the spacious lounge/kitchen/diner. The stylish kitchen area, with French doors leading to the garden, sets the scene for group gatherings and culinary adventures using locally sourced produce. Gather around the dining table to plan your holiday escapades before heading to the comfortable sofas for cosy evenings in front of the Smart TV or by the soothing glow of the wood burner.

Indulge in a leisurely bath or refreshing shower in the bathroom before retiring to one of the two delightful bedrooms. Choose from one king-size and one twin zip-and-link (which can be made up as a super-king-size on request) for restful nights and breathtaking views to greet you each morning. Outside, the enclosed garden beckons with a picnic bench, charcoal BBQ, and a deck leading to another inviting seating area.

Delight in al fresco dining surrounded by the natural splendour of the area, complete with a nature reserve, captivating woodlands, and a path leading up to the majestic Pumlumon Mountain. Embark on outdoor adventures aplenty, with the highest summit, Pumlumon, beckoning in the distance and Glyndwr's Way footpath weaving through picturesque landscapes.
