Maes Madog
A stunning 1840s stone farmhouse near Betws-y-Coed, featuring a private hot tub, games room, and an amazing covered outdoor kitchen with its own log burner.
If you're looking for a peaceful country escape with plenty of space for a group, Maes Madog is a fantastic find. This beautiful 1840s stone farmhouse is set in a wonderfully tranquil spot, bursting with charm and character, yet it's only a short drive from the popular village of Betws-y-Coed. It's an ideal retreat for friends or family, and guests often comment that it's the perfect, spacious, and cosy base for exploring Snowdonia.
Inside, the house feels warm and welcoming. The main sitting room is the perfect place to unwind, with a huge, impressive inglenook fireplace and a wood-burning stove, perfect for getting cosy after a day of exploring. The large, well-equipped kitchen has a cooking range and a big dining table for everyone to gather around, with patio doors opening straight out to the garden. There's also a games room with a pool table, which is always a big hit with the whole group.
The house offers four bedrooms, with a flexible layout to suit your group. There's a convenient ground-floor double bedroom with its own en-suite shower, which is ideal for those who prefer to avoid stairs (though it's worth noting it's a 4' double, so it's a bit cosier). Upstairs, you'll find a spacious super king-size, a king-size with its own en-suite, and a twin room. The main family bathroom is a real touch of luxury, with a large walk-in shower and a gorgeous freestanding roll-top bath, perfect for a long soak.
The outside space here is a real highlight. The large, enclosed garden has a private hot tub with picturesque views – an incredible treat for soothing sore legs after a hike. But the real star, and what guests often rave about, is the fantastic covered outdoor kitchen and gazebo. It's a brilliant, cosy space with seating and its own log burner, meaning you can enjoy dining alfresco or just relaxing outdoors, whatever the weather.
While it feels like you're in the middle of nowhere, you're just a 10-minute drive from Betws-y-Coed, with its great shops and cafes. You're perfectly placed for exploring all the area's top attractions, from Zip World to the countless waterfalls and mountain walks right from the doorstep.
