Large central section of early 19th century country house, 3 bedrooms, sleeps 11
The country house, of which this flat is the spacious central section, has stayed with the family that built it through 5 generations now, is listed as being of special architectural interest, is an SSSI, and stands in 5 acres of garden consisting of informal lawns, bushes, shrubs and trees that are a delight to adults, children and wildlife alike. Nestling below 15 acres of its own private woodland at the base of the foothills leading up to Cader Idris, the house looks across to the hills and mountains the other side of the head of the Mawddach estuary.
A path leads two-thirds of the way to Dolgellau which, like Penmaenpool's George III, is just 1 mile away.
