Tre Ddafydd Waunfawr Dafydd Hardy Coast & Country Tre Ddafydd If you want charm and character, then you're definitely looking in the right place. There's no denying this property has all the right ingredients to fulfill a certain lifestyle if you yearn for solace, your very own haven to escape the pace of modern living. Residing in a particularly pleasant position on the periphery of the popular village of Waunfawr, Tre Ddafydd is sure to delight on a number of levels, being positioned at the end of a private track within its very own oasis of landscaped garden grounds, backing onto open farmland, the gardens enjoying a superb southerly aspect looking towards the Snowdonia Mountains, in particular the distinctive 'elephant' outline of Mynydd Mawr and its neighbour Moel Eilio – you're certainly spoilt for magnificent scenery. From the front you can see Anglesey and even a hint of the sea. Tre Ddafydd is essentially a detached Welsh cottage which has been sympathetically enlarged and tastefully modernised, a typically unassuming property which will undoubtedly win you over with its charm through and through. Despite being all on one level, which might prove advantageous, the accommodation is no less roomy, definitely practical and a great place to put your feet up at the end of the day. The fact that the principal historic town of Caernarfon lies just under 4 miles distant, makes this a home that'll realise your dreams to live the country life whilst being within easy reach of amenities. And with Snowdonia practically on your doorstep, this rugged mountainous playground is yours for the taking. Now the generous half acre garden plays a major role in making this home what it is, but Tre Ddafydd is far more than that. It is also home to a separate, fully serviced annexe which the current owners utilise as holiday accommodation, and very successful it is too – but more on this later. First, let us tell you a little about the interior of the cottage. There are thick irregular walls to the original section and high panelled ceilings with two impressive inglenook fireplaces at either end, both home to large multi-fuel stoves – you've got to have an open fire in a cottage like this! The kitchen is wide and spacious, fitted with bespoke units which fit the character of the cottage, the lounge is comfortable and quintessential of the period whilst the master bedroom is a delight with windows to three aspects and patio doors opening onto the garden. The bathroom comes fitted with a free standing cast iron rolled edge bath and under-floor heating no less. Tre Ddafydd is fully double glazed and is served by an LPG fired central heating system. The one bedroomed annexe, like the cottage is immaculately presented, spacious and practical enough for a weekend getaway or extended stay (facilitated via AirBnB). The modern kitchen is fully equipped with appliances, there's LPG central heating, double glazing and exclusive use of a summer house tucked away to the rear. Recent reviews state: "It is ideally suited for tourists wanting to explore Snowdonia and also for couch potatoes like us who take the lovely little train rides available in the area." "A lovely and stylish cottage set in beautiful gardens, with a great view. There were thoughtful touches such as wine and welsh cakes left for us." The gardens offer enormous variety in terms of flora with a fine mixture of plants and shrubs that provide a riot of colour throughout the seasons. Much of the garden is laid to lawn whilst a section is reserved as a vegetable plot producing fresh salad for your plate. Hidden away towards the end of the garden is a purpose made seating area which provides splendid views of Snowdonia. Oh, and there's plentiful private parking too. This hidden gem of Tre Ddafydd is located on the edge of the rural village of Waunfawr in a quiet and peaceful setting. The village sits at the mouth of the beautiful Nant Y Betws Valley which leads towards the lakes and mountains of the Snowdonia National Park, including Snowdon. The village has a number of local amenities as well as a regular bus service to the main castle town of Caernarfon, some 4 miles distant. The increasingly popular Welsh Highland Railway now runs all the way from Caernarfon to Porthmadog passing to the south of the village where you will find a station stop off. The university city of Bangor can also be easily accessed from the village as can the main A55 expressway. This is a rural community amidst beautiful countryside which is not too far off the beaten track, offering the best of both worlds.
