Manod View is a fascinating stone-built cottage located on the outskirts of Blaenau Ffestiniog, in the Snowdonia National Park. The cottage is ideal for a couple or small family seeking a peaceful retreat in North Wales. The interior is tastefully decorated with high ceilings, a cozy sitting room with leather sofas and a gas fire, a separate dining room, and a well-equipped kitchen. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms - a chic king-size room and a snug single - as well as a modern bathroom with a double-ended bath.
Outside, guests can relax in the enclosed terraced garden and admire views of the craggy hills and natural waterfall. The nearby Melin Pant yr Ynn, a Grade II listed slate mill converted into a private home and art exhibition, is worth a visit. Blaenau Ffestiniog, just a mile away, offers shops, eateries, and pubs, as well as attractions like the Ffestiniog narrow gauge railway, Llechwedd slate caverns, and Zip World adventures.
The surrounding area boasts stunning landscapes, ideal for outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, golfing, and mountain biking. Visitors can explore historic sites, castles, and the picturesque village of Portmeirion, as well as enjoy sandy beaches along the North Wales coast. Manod View serves as a fantastic base for exploring Snowdonia National Park and the diverse attractions of the region throughout the year.
