The romantic retreat located in Dolgellau, Gwynedd, is a tempting timber cottage nestled within the Dolmelynllyn estate in Snowdonia, Wales.

As dawn breaks, visitors are treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding valley, making it an ideal getaway for couples seeking tranquility and natural beauty.

Inside, the cottage is designed for comfort, featuring a cozy nook complete with a log-burner and sloping ceilings that enhance its intimate atmosphere.
