Perched on the fringes of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and within striking distance of the Cambrian mountains and coastline is Cysgod Y Coed, a characterful, end-of-terrace property set within the village of Tre'r Ddol. Inside, the property has been immaculately transformed with a clever combination of character and contemporary, providing a welcoming base for romantics, families or friends to call home as they explore this part of Wales. Step inside to find a sleek kitchen, where the chef of the group can look forward to making the most of the quality appliances, arranged in a contemporary assortment to cook up family-favourite dishes, which can be enjoyed within the spacious living/dining room. In here, you can look forward to relishing in your loved one’s company at the dining table as you tuck into your meals, accompanied by a special tipple before kicking back on the sofa to tune into the TV, with the crackle of the woodburning stove setting the ambiance and the complementing exposed beams perfectly framing the room. At the end of each action packed day, sleep is sure to come easy in one of the two double bedrooms, both offering a refreshing colour palette and good storage space. During a balmy afternoon, look forward to spending time within the spacious garden, where table and chairs offer an alternative spot for dining and the large lawn is ideal for letting your canine companions roam. Better acquaint yourself with your surroundings further with a leisurely stroll into the centre of Tre'r Ddol, where you will find a superb community-run shop, Cletwr, where you can pick up local produce or any last minute essentials, whilst the pub offers a good menu for the evenings where you do not feel like cooking, or you can find Ynyshir, a Michelin Star restaurant, just a 4 mile drive away.
