Ty Coch

Nestled in the Eryri National Park in the rural village of Betws Garmon, is this farm-style home, Ty Coch. This five-bedroom property is on a working farm surrounded by rolling hills and offers a games room, making this an excellent base for both families and friends.

Step inside the stone-fronted home and discover the kitchen/diner, well-equipped with everything you need for a self-catered stay with a rangemaster electric cooker for baking. Gather at the country-style dining table to favour mealtimes together or if the sun is shining, why not make dinner an alfresco affair in the enclosed garden?

Sit back and relax as you admire the views of the unspoilt landscape; afterwards retire to the sitting room and keep warm next to the woodburning stove. The young ones can escape to either the snug room with a TV or the external games room, with a pool table, huge Connect 4 and darts.

As the evening draws to a close, the ground-floor offers a twin bedroom, serviced by a shower room or venture upstairs to find two double rooms and two single bedrooms, all with ample storage. Awaken with a cup of tea in the conservatory to soak up the morning sunshine before embarking on a rural ramble from the foot of the door.

Ty Coch is a superb base for avid walkers with its National Park setting and for your amenities, a short drive will lead you to the town of Caernarfon, which offers a great selection of traditional pubs, quirky shops, and cafes. Caernarfon is a historic town in Wales with plenty of things to see and do.

The main attraction is Caernarfon Castle, a medieval castle, and the town walls, or you can visit the village of Llanberis and enjoy a steam train between the mountains. The bustling town of Bangor is home to many historical attractions, including the Beaumaris Castle, National Trust - Penrhyn Castle and Garden, and the Plas Cadnant Hidden Gardens.
