The property
Barmouth 2.2 miles. Tucked away in Abermo, Gwynedd, is this fantastic two-bedroom holiday home, Bodowen Coach House. Set within 10-acres next to the owner’s home and boasting an elevated position with exceptional views of the Mawddach Estuary and Cader Idris, Bodowen Coach House is a superb dwelling for couples or a family of four. Leave your vehicle in the off-road parking space where you can unload your bags with ease before entering your beautiful new abode. Step into your new holiday home, where you will find a well-appointed bathroom, fitted with a bath and overhead shower where you can freshen up at the end of the day, as your towel gently warms on the heated towel rail. In the hallway, you will also find a cupboard housing a washing machine for your convenience. Continue on to the well-equipped kitchen, where you can look forward to whipping up delicious meals for your loved ones, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four over a celebratory bottle of fizz. On warmer days, savour your meal alfresco in the gorgeous side garden where you can soak up the breath-taking panoramic views on offer. After dinner, retire to the living/dining room, where you can fire up the woodburning stove and select your favourite film on the Smart TV with Sonos speaker as the evening’s entertainment. The living/dining room also features a Juliet balcony with fabulous estuary views. As the day draws to a close, retire to one of two beautifully-appointed bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, both with plenty of storage for your belongings. Along with its lovely interior and surroundings, Bodowen Coach House also enjoys a rich history, with the main house being the former home to the great English mountaineer and explorer, Major Harold Tilman, who was well-known for his sea explorations and Himalayan climbs. Bodowen Coach House is well-suited to keen walkers and cyclists with the rear garden leading towards a woodland, where you can easily access to the renowned Panorama Walk where you can wander above the town and soak up the magnificent views over the Mawddach Estuary and out towards the Snowdonia National Park, follow the Mawddach Trail, or drop down into Barmouth where you will find the Barmouth Slabs, ideal for rock climbing. Barmouth has all the amenities and attractions you could need for a memorable self-catered stay, including the welcoming eateries of The Lobster Pot for fresh seafood, The Last Inn for hearty pub fayre, and The Mermaid for fresh fish and chips, as well as a well-stocked convenience store for picking up any essentials. Spend a day bathing on the golden sands or paddling the shores of Traeth Abermaw Beach, followed by a stroll along the pier where you can watch the boats come in. From Barmouth you can catch the ferry over to Fairbourne, home to its own wonderful beach and the historic Fairbourne Railway. Continue onto Harlech, where you can test out your swing at the excellent Royal St. David’s Golf Club, spend a day at Harlech Beach or visit the remarkable Harlech Castle. Venture further into the Snowdonia National Park, where you can take on the famous Snowdonia Peak, enjoy the delights of Zip World Llechwedd or take to the waters of Bala Lake. All this and more awaits at Bodowen Coach House.
