House in North Wales

If you are looking for an unforgettable property to come together with your nearest and dearest then look no further, this is perfect for families and friends wanting a special holiday on the coastal side of Snowdonia National Park. Situated on the edge of the small village of Talsarnau, overlooking the Dwyryd estuary, this property is a 19th century manor house built by sea captain Lewis Holland Thomas. Where the Captain would once watch ships heading into the bustling port of Porthmadog, you can gaze across the now peaceful waters towards Portmeirion, the Italianate architectural masterpiece of Clough Williams Ellis. Just four miles away is Harlech with its famous cliff top 13th century castle, Royal Saint David s Golf Course and miles of beautiful dune fringed beaches. Around six miles away is Porthmadog, which has a marina, a range of shops from supermarkets to small independent shops, restaurants and waterside views. Take a trip on one of the three heritage railways that service Porthmadog, taking in the scenic mountain views along the line to Caernarfon or marvel at the scale of the slate industry that has left its mark on Blaenau Ffestiniog. Step through the grand entrance hall and wander through to the lounge with a huge bay window offering stunning views, a wood burner, comfortable sofa seating and a smart TV. Come together around the bar area for pre dinner drinks and admire the far reaching views across the estuary. The kitchen is the heart of the home and offers everything you need to rustle up a special celebration meal for loved ones, with a nearby dining table with seating for 18. Head down to the games room with wall mounted 75 cinema TV, cinema seating and a further space with beanbags and a games console, the dream teenage hang out. There is a conservatory with seating which overlooks the patio, a quiet spot to sit and curl up with a good book There are two ground floor bedrooms, one with en suite shower room and the other with en suite bathroom. There are also two WCs on the ground floor. Venture up the impressive staircase overlooked by a beautiful stained glass window to explore the bedrooms. There are seven bedrooms on the first floor, styled to perfection with beautiful colour schemes and matching soft furnishings, all with en suite bath or shower rooms. All offer peaceful relaxation in this sleepy part of North Wales, some with stunning views out over the estuary. The spa area offers a sunken indoor swim spa with seating for 12; indulge in your own private spa experience with a steam room, sauna, loungers and showers, or have a competitive game of pool in the nearby games room, if you prefer.
