Overview
Property code: 42772

This bright, colourful and cheerful Edwardian house makes a fantastic holiday home for up to eight guests. With pretty rural views, this spacious property offers cosy self-catering accommodation for a larger family or a group of friends eager to explore this beguiling part of the Welsh coast. The nearest beach is within a mile, and there’s plenty of room to unwind in the terraced gardens where there’s a summerhouse with plenty of toys and games. Just half a mile from the picturesque village of Fairbourne, this impressive but welcoming retreat is a fabulous base for walkers, cyclists and nature-lovers looking to explore the glorious expanses of the immense Snowdonia National Park which surrounds the area.

Entering this vibrant and refreshing property via the bright and charming hallway, you will find the relaxing and stylishly decorated lounge which makes a lovely space for you all to sit back at the end of the day. With wooden flooring, a cosy coal effect gas fire, feature rugs and a TV, this is a delightful room to curl up with a good book, watch a movie or gaze out at the rural views. The pretty dining room is warm and cosy, and the perfect space to enjoy your favourite family meals. There’s also plenty more seating, a TV and an open fireplace, providing extra room for larger groups. The attractive kitchen is equipped with everything you may need during your stay and leads through to a delightful breakfast room where you can read the paper, drink a morning coffee or prepare for the day’s adventures. When it’s time for bed, there are four tastefully decorated bedrooms with beautiful wooden flooring to be found on the first floor: two king-size rooms and two twin rooms, with original feature fireplaces in the twin rooms. The house also offers a games room, a bathroom and a separate shower room. The tiered gardens have some pretty picnic spots, fruit trees and a swingball. You can unwind in the charming patio area, which has a BBQ and outdoor furniture, or you can head into the summerhouse/games room with a pool table, games console and a choice of board games.

I've shared this holiday home to all my dog training friends and they all think its stunning. The garden is superb and you can see the lengths that someone has gone to, to make it totally secure for dogs. This enables the owners to totally relax.

With it's large rooms Llifor is a great place for families to base themselves to explore the area around Dolgellau. The house is very well equipped and we were very comfortable on our holiday. The weather was against us for most of the week but we enjoyed visiting the beaches at Barmouth, Porthmadoc and Fairbourne (when the tide was out!)
