The Old Cowshed & Little Barn, Pentrefelin, Criccieth, Gwynedd, LL52

The Old Cow Shed and The Little Barn are two superbly converted former barns, displaying immense charm and character whilst residing in a truly remarkable position, enjoying a secluded and elevated position with a grand southerly aspect, the views offered being quite spectacular with an almost 180 degree vista. You’ll be able to enjoy far reaching views over the surrounding landscape towards the sea, Cardigan Bay and the outline of the southern Eryri/Snowdonia range – as dramatic as they come. If ever there was an investment with a difference, then this has got to be it! Enjoying 2 hot tubs and residing within some 5¾ Acres or thereabouts, the sense of privacy and freedom is tangible. Both barns are fully independent holiday units with an occupation covenant of 11 months per year, lovingly converted around the years 2011/12 with no expense spared and as such are handsomely presented to a very high standard with particular attention paid to preserve the original character. The attention to detail is noteworthy and combines the best of contemporary living and style. Historically, it appears that the barns have stood here since the beginning of the 16th century, a testament to their traditional stone construction and thick walls no doubt. Both properties come fully uPVC double glazed with the majority of rooms having under-floor heating whilst standard radiators are used in other rooms where required. The Old Cow Shed arguably wins the character prize with its exposed ‘A’ framed ceiling and multi-fuel stove fireplace, but the Little Barn makes up for it with its cosy appeal and beamed ceiling to the first floor. Both are quite unique and enjoy their own appeal. (Incidentally, The Little Barn has recently undergone refurbishment with a new kitchen and shower room). For the general layout of the accommodation, please consult the floorplan contained within these details. The adjoining pastureland undoubtedly adds further options and potential for what has to be a very exciting proposition. The barns reside in a beautiful countryside setting on the edge of Pentrefelin, just off the A497 coastal road between the historic towns and Criccieth and Porthmadog. Access to the shoreline is only a matter of a few minutes drive. The historic town of Criccieth to the west offers a sweeping promenade, sandy beaches and a good range of amenities whilst Porthmadog is situated approximately 3 miles eastward offering a wider range of amenities and access to some fine sandy beaches and hidden coves. Porthmadog is home to the famous Ffestiniog narrow gauge mountain railway too.
