Please note: The property is on a bridge above a fenced tidal estuary.. Perched on the much photographed, Grade II listed, wooden toll bridge, this amazing Toll Bridge House was built in 1921 as a home for the resident tollkeeper. The bridge was built in 1879 across the tidal Mawddach Estuary at Penmaenpool, and this unique holiday home offers a remarkably spacious interior. The toll bridge is still in use today, linking the coastal towns of Tywyn and Barmouth in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park. There is a lovely little balcony on the opposite side of the bridge – the perfect place to sip a glass of wine and enjoy watching a sunset. The Mawddach Trail walking and cycle path passes the door, and follows the route of the old railway line from Dolgellau to Barmouth; cycle hire is available in both Dolgellau and Barmouth. Also adjacent is the rspb bird hide, a great place for watching birds out on the estuary. If you can bear to tear yourself away from this perfect location, the market town of Dolgellau and the beaches of Barmouth and Fairbourne are well worth a visit, as are the nearby Fairbourne Railway and Talyllyn Railway. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles.
Free WiFi
Dog only. The balcony area is on the other side of the bridge 10 yards from the property. No smoking in the property or on the bridge please.
This property is situated on the wooden toll bridge, open to vehicles from 8.30am to 6.30pm and to pedestrians 24 hours a day. The Estuary is tidal twice a day and at high tide the water comes up to part of the bridge underneath the property. The owner provides a pass for free use of the toll bridge during your stay.
