Llwyn Y Gwaew, Llanbedr-Y-Cennin, Conwy, LL32 8UT
Llwyn Y Gwaew is a collection of four beautifully restored farm dwellings, all within close proximity of each other situated in a truly magnificent position overlooking the Vale of Conwy amidst the delightful green countryside, surrounded by the gentle slopes of
the Snowdonia mountains – a captivating location! Description Set on the western side of the Conwy Valley above the rural community of Llanbedr Y Cenin, Llwyn Y Gwaew sits within some 7 Acres of land (including some woodland), making it ideal for grazing purposes or even to satisfy your equestrian requirements. The village and indeed a good proportion of the villages within the valley grew mainly around pastoral industries such as sheep and dairy farming. The present owners, who incidentally carried out the restoration of Llwyn Y Gwaew, currently run three of the establishments as holiday lets, all of which are graded 4 star establishments courtesy of the National Tourist Board. It’s good to know also that all four dwellings have individual freeholds, making the proposition all the more enticing and indeed versatile to your needs.
The four dwellings are built of traditional stone materials and have been extensively renovated and are presented to an exceptional standard. The sense of craftsmanship, materials used and attention to detail is remarkable with each property displaying its own attractive attributes, retaining many original features. The ‘Farmhouse’ might be considered the hub of the original farm and retains that authentic farmhouse feel - its roomy too, enjoys its own private gardens and a fine aspect with far reaching views northward over the Conwy Valley. There’s also the ‘Granary’ and ‘Piggery’, both of which have their own distinctive charm, each having retained the original outside steps to the first floor (there are internal stairs you’ll be glad to know) which betray their past as working farm buildings – it all adds up to a rather splendid experience with a dash of authenticity thrown in! Inside of course, there is no let-up in terms of character and interesting features with an especially exquisite Mezzanine level in the ‘Piggery’.
The dwelling used by the current owners as their main residence is arguably the one most would choose to live in - and it’s easy to see why this choice was made. The main reception room is a delight, very roomy but certainly a feast for the eyes with a pitched ceiling and the ‘A’ frames on full view. Overlooking the proceedings is a fine Crogloft from where you can survey the fine timberwork on display. Again, the sense of quality and attention to detail is evident with oak flooring (under-floor heated, no less), modern sash style double glazed windows, a fine country kitchen with polished marble work surfaces and contemporary, high specification bathroom and en-suite facilities. Included is a spacious garden, patio and ponds which attracts all kinds of natural wildlife.
