This traditional stable conversion with views of Eryri from the hot tub sits in an elevated position over the Vale of Ffestiniog, in the Eryri National Park, and also a UNESCO world heritage site. By day the views are of mountains and coast. By night, thanks to this region’s Dark Sky Reserve status, you’ll have stars in your eyes too. The nearest village is Penrhyndeudraeth, which has a Spar- a well stocked convenience store, Silver Lake a Chinese takeaway, Lemon Tree is the Indian takeaway, also two pubs, the newly renovated "The Griffin"(1.4mile walk) and The Derwen. Penrhyndeudraeth railway station is walkable at just over a mile and a half in distance. Head slightly further afield in the direction of the coast and you’ll reach the lovely harbour town of Porthmadog, which has a high street full of independent shops. The harbour has a good selection of restaurants and cafes, and if you’re a fan of real ales look out for the Purple Moose brewery too. Porthmadog is also home to what will be your closest large supermarket (there’s a large Tesco on the High Street). From Porthmadog, a 20-minute walk will get you to the seaside village of Borth-y-Gest, where you’ll find attractive sandy beaches and a couple of traditional style cafes. The wonderfully eccentric Portmeirion Village is a short distance from Porthmadog and another great place to spend the day. If you didn’t manage the flag down the steam train as it crossed your garden at Stablgoch, you can jump on the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland railways at Porthmadog for a magical ride through Snowdonia. The railways run a regular service throughout the year, with family-friendly and some themed events in school holidays. Around 15 minutes’ drive in the other direction, towards the mountains, is the supremely pretty mountain village of Beddgelert. This is a great place to potter about, and maybe even take a picnic to enjoy on the riverbank. There are some great family-friendly walks around the village,...
