Ysgubor, Wales

Dinas Mawddwy 2 miles. A picturesque farmhouse, situated on a 500-acre organic farm, 2 miles from Dinas Mawddwy. Ysgubor has been extended to create a delightful, spacious property with a wealth of original features including magnificent oak beams and doors, exposed stone walls, a lovely inglenook fireplace, slate flagged floors and woodburners, which all help create a real welcoming atmosphere.

With parts dating back to the 17th century, the property boasts a perfect combination of olde worlde character and new build convenience, including a four poster bed, with all modern facilities which include a Rangemaster cooker, an all body jet shower, a hot tub and pool table. This charming old farmhouse nestles in a perfect away-from-it-all location on a 500-acre organic farm, commanding panoramic views over the surrounding mountains and hills, as well as the opportunity to try free trout fishing in the owner's lake.

The location is a paradise for walkers, ramblers, mountain bikers and birdwatchers, who can all enjoy the owner's private mountains (mounts Graig Wen and Gribyn, both over 2000'), where the Red Bull Hardline mountain bike event is held annually, with the rest of Snowdonia beyond, while green fields surrounding the property are perfect for playing football or cricket in the summer sun.

Nearby Dolgellau offers a good range of shops, pubs and restaurants, or discover the sandy beaches, castles, golf courses and mountain railways of the region. The owner, who lives nearby and occasionally occupies a small annexe to the left of the holiday property, is always ready to help, and at the end of an exciting day, enjoy the surrounding mountain scenery as you relax in the lovely hot tub.
