About this property

This stone-built, semi-detached cottage has been beautifully renovated to provide homely accommodation within the town of Blaenau Ffestiniog. Surrounded by the wonders of Snowdonia, this is an ideal base for a couple looking to escape among the area's rural splendour. The property is the former home of well-known author, philosopher and poet, John Cowper Powys, who spent the last nine years of his life here. Get a sense of the property's traditional charm from the moment you enter, as the alluring sitting room is lined with whitewashed exposed stone walls. A woodburning stove set in a stunning Inglenook fireplace provides added warmth when watching your favourite shows on the Smart TV. Step up into the kitchen, which adopts a more modern design and plays host to a useful range of fixtures and fittings for your convenience. Climb the stairs to reach the first floor, where you will first discover a glistening family bathroom presented in immaculate white, with the option of a shower over the bath. A well-presented double bedroom completes the interior of the property, which looks out across the dramatic mountains, making up the surrounding skyline. There is a small enclosed courtyard accessed from the kitchen and rear of the property, perfect for securely storing bikes. Stroll into Blaenau Ffestiniog with ease from here, hosting a wide range of high-quality spots to enjoy some shopping, wining and dining at your leisure. Discover some of the area's most popular attractions nearby, including the fascinating Slate Mountain and the adrenaline-pumping Zip World. Outdoor lovers can ramble across luscious landscapes or hike challenging peaks close by, also we have a padlocked gate to the rear allowing for safe storage of bikes. If you're looking to experience the area without the blood, sweat and tears, treat yourself to a trip on the Ffestiniog Railway - a journey to truly cherish. Use this unique holiday home as the base for an unforgettable Snowdonia adventure.

The old slate town, Blaenau Ffestiniog, rests in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park. Places to shop, eat and drink are aplenty in the town. Also discover a number of different attractions, from the exhilarating Zip World to the fascinating slate mines.
