This period farmhouse dates back to 1592, and was the home of a local bard who was the present owner's Grandfather. Set in a quiet position in the hills above Harlech and its sandy beaches, which is a mile and a half away, the house is reached via a 300 metre road off a country lane and cycle path which leads to the Roman Steps walk at Cwm Bychan and Cwm Nantcol valley with its waterfalls and magnificent scenery for walking or cycling.

Set in the Snowdonia National Park, it is within easy reach of Portmeirion, Porthmadog, Barmouth and many other places to visit.

The owner lives in an annexe at the side which is private and there is a pond for watching the several birds and wildlife who visit frequently (50 yards). There are also several other lakes in the area. Shops and pub one and a half miles. Private garden and furniture for outdoor dining and picnic bench near the pond and parking area.
