Idris Bach Cottage

Spacious, comfy cottage in Snowdonia near Portmeirion with great views. Idris Bach is laid out over three floors. It is a roomy, one-bedroom cottage for two people. Location ideally suited for walking, climbing, steam trains or just relaxing. The space BEDROOM The bedroom’s TV has a built-in DVD player in case you can't drag yourself out of bed. If you need help waking up, there's a clock radio with an mp3 input. When you are lounging in bed in the morning, it might seem a long way down to the kitchen, so there's a small kettle for you to make a cuppa or two. The large wardrobe with built-in drawers should provide adequate space for your clothes, and there's extra drawer space in the bedside cabinets. We've also provided a hair-dryer in case you leave yours behind. LOUNGE From the living room you can enjoy the fabulous mountain view without even having to get up off the sofa! There's also a cuddle chair for you to snuggle up together in – though you may want to keep it all to yourself and just curl up to read a book or enjoy the view. Of course, there's also a TV (with freesat) and DVD player, as well as a stereo with DAB radio, CD and iPod dock. There's a selection of DVDs, CDs, books and board games to keep you entertained, as well as walking guides/maps and even a Spanish guitar in case you wish to serenade your companion. KITCHEN Renovated 2025. The kitchen has an induction, electric oven/grill, microwave, dishwasher, fridge with small freezer, toaster and there's a washing machine, ironing board, iron and addition fridge in the utility room. There are a few restaurants within walking distance but the kitchen is well-equipped with all the pots and pans you might need if you choose to cook at home every night. There is a spacious dining area. The table is carefully positioned by the window to allow you take in the scenery while you dine. A stable door opens onto the patio, so that you can enjoy the view of the Snowdonia mountains and the Glaslyn estuary whether you choose to sit inside or out. BATHROOM The bathroom features a walk-in electric shower, Egyptian cotton towels and, with the blind open, one of the best loo views in Wales. It is situated on the top floor next to the bedroom. GARDEN Idris Bach cottage is perched on a hillside, with a south-facing garden enjoying views of the Glaslyn estuary below and the Snowdonia mountains towards Harlech and Cader Idris beyond. The garden is on two levels, with the lower terrace featuring a small summerhouse, where you can sit and enjoy the view and watch the sheep grazing below even when it rains! The cast-iron table and chairs on the top patio outside the kitchen are a little too heavy to move around, so there are also folding chairs in the summerhouse provided for you. PARKING Within 100 metres of the property. Other things to note We generally take week long Saturday to Saturday bookings from June to September. A minimum of three nights applies for the rest of the year.
