Bronfa Cottage

Bronfa is a characterful detached stone house in the village of Tregarth, tucked between the city of Bangor and the mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia) in North Wales. Sleeping six across three bedrooms, with two woodburning stoves, an enclosed garden and ample parking, it is a warm and well-equipped base for a family or group wanting the coast, the city and the high peaks all within easy reach — and it is spotlessly kept, with a top five-star guest rating.

A detached stone cottage in Tregarth, on the edge of Snowdonia near Bangor

The three bedrooms are a king-size, a double and a bunk room, served by three bath and shower rooms (including a handy ground-floor shower room), so there is rarely a wait. Downstairs there are two welcoming woodburning stoves — one in the living room and one in the kitchen/diner — and a well-equipped kitchen with a range cooker, plus a utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer. Outside, the enclosed rear garden has a patio, lawn and dining areas, and there is off-road parking for three cars. With superfast WiFi throughout and that genuine stone-cottage character — exposed beams, slate floors and a stone fireplace — it is a comfortable home-from-home in a peaceful spot.

Things to do nearby

Tregarth’s position is a real winner. The mountains of Eryri begin almost at the door — the dramatic Ogwen Valley, Llyn Ogwen and the Carneddau are a short drive away for some of the best walking in Wales, and the slate-and-adventure village of Bethesda, home to Zip World Penrhyn Quarry, is just three miles off. The magnificent Penrhyn Castle, a National Trust mansion in vast grounds, sits between the village and Bangor. The cathedral city of Bangor, with its university, high street, Victorian pier and the Menai Strait, is four and a half miles away, and just beyond it Telford’s suspension bridge crosses to the Isle of Anglesey. Caernarfon and its world-famous castle are a short drive in the other direction.

Who it suits

With three bath/shower rooms and a ground-floor shower room, Bronfa is comfortable for a family or group, and the bunk room is great for children. The location suits walkers, adventurers and sightseers alike — climb a mountain, zip down a quarry, explore a castle or relax by the woodburner. As it does not accept pets, it best suits guests holidaying without a dog.

Good to know

Two woodburning stoves and genuine stone-cottage character — exposed beams, slate floors and a stone fireplace — make this a warm, characterful base, and three bath/shower rooms mean rarely a wait. The Tregarth setting puts Snowdonia, Bangor, Anglesey and Caernarfon all within easy reach. Please note the cottage does not accept pets and is non-smoking.
