Newly Refurbished & Redecorated
We have sympathetically restored the property with all the modern conveniences whilst keeping original features in place such as the wood burning stoves, large slate lintels and fireplaces. Before the children started school we spent half our time here so it has been decorated to be a charming family home. We look forward to welcoming you and your family to stay.



Stunning Views
The views in the village are stunning and it's the ideal quiet retreat to get away from it all and recuperate. Cwm Penmachno although very remote is only seven miles from the popular tourist location of Betws-y-Coed. Conwy Falls and Swallow Falls are both nearby as are several of the popular Zip World attractions. You can reach a number of coastlines and mount Snowdon from our central location within 35-45 minutes making it an ideal base to explore the whole area.
