accommodation:
Ynys Pandy has 4 upstairs bedrooms.
2 doubles (including one with a cot), 1 twin, and 1 full-sized bunk
bed. They are all individually
furnished and all have an interesting selection of books to enjoy in bed!
A stair gate is provided and all beds are made up ready for your
arrival.
The recently
refitted downstairs bathroom has a walk-in shower and separate bath with a
hand-held shower and is complete with shaving socket, fluffy towels and
complimentary eco-friendly
body care products.
Just next door is the additional cloakroom – useful for the morning
rush!
The utility room houses a
belfast
sink, full-size dishwasher, washing machine, a ‘sheila maid’ for
drying, the central heating boiler and the recycling bins.
Ecover dishwasher tablets, rinse aid, washing up liquid and laundry
liquid are all provided.
The newly fitted farmhouse kitchen is very well equipped and tea towels,
dishcloth, all cleaning materials, kitchen paper, bin bags, foil, food
wrap etc are all provided.
There is a
breakfast room at one end seating 8 comfortably including a high chair,
where you will find an afternoon tea of Welsh Cakes waiting for you to
enjoy on your arrival.
The lounge is cosy,
homely and comfortable with it’s traditional beamed ceiling and
inglenook fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove, including a first supply
of coal, logs, sticks, firelighters and matches. The
walls are lined with an eclectic mix of
books including local interest/walks and maps, brochures
advertising local attractions and on the desk, the weekly local newspaper.
There are cupboards filled with games and jigsaws, but also it
provides all the modern ‘essentials’ such as Freeview T.V., DVD, music
centre and free broadband connection..
The
centrally-heated conservatory is used all year round, with a huge dining
table at one end and relaxing area the other.
On the wall is a map of
North Wales
so you can plan your days out exploring the area.
From the conservatory you can access the lawned garden, defined by
living willow fences and shrubs. Here
you will find a children’s play area with playframe/swings, a table and
benches and plenty of space. A
barbecue is available including charcoal for al fresco meals and also
folding armchairs for relaxing in the sun and at the end of the garden is
the gate for access to the fields.
We also accept up to two pets, usually dogs, bearing in mind that there
are sheep in the fields and that we have three dogs and three cats.
surroundings:
Ynys Pandy is beautifully secluded, but not remote, tucked away off a
minor road, which forms the border of the
Snowdonia
National Park
. A tree-lined private drive
leads from the road (opposite a working Woollen Mill) to the house, where
there is ample parking space. The
views are of mountains – Cwm Pennant, Moel Hebog and Craig y Garn.
You can walk down to the river with it’s perfect Pooh Sticks
bridge and stepping stones, where the local children swim in the summer.
Our Visitors’ Book is full of praise – a recent comment from
one of our guests – “I love
Wales
anyway, but the location here cannot be beaten I am sure for access
to the best bits such as
Anglesey
, Snowdonia and Llyn Peninsular.”
As well as the
mountains and beaches (Black Rock Sands, Criccieth and Harlech), which are
ideal for exploring, walking, climbing or relaxing, there are numerous
activities and attractions close by.
Indeed the road at the bottom of the drive is on National Cycle
Route 8 – Lon Las Cymru (check out www.sustrans.org.uk
). Why not hire bicycles?
They can be hired and delivered from www.beicsmenai.co.uk

towns of Porthmadog, Criccieth,
Pwllheli, Caernarfon and
