Aber Cottage Bed & Breakfast is an immaculately presented Grade II Listed property, offering 3 en-suite guest bedrooms together with 2 bedroom owner's accommodation located on the top floor.

The property has been very well maintained to a high standard, both internally and externally, with careful attention given to ongoing maintenance and full compliance with current regulations. Recent improvements include fire safety upgrades and electrical works. All en-suite shower rooms have been refurbished to provide modern, high-quality facilities, while the cottage retains an abundance of attractive period features throughout. Gas central heating serves the entire property.

Currently operated as a successful and well-regarded Bed & Breakfast with 3* Visit Wales accreditation, the property would also lend itself equally well to use as a substantial family residence, should a purchaser wish to do so.

In its present arrangement, the accommodation comprises 3 letting bedrooms, each with its own en-suite facility, along with an office. The second floor provides private owner's accommodation, including a sitting room, 2 bedrooms, and a bathroom.

Externally, Aber Cottage benefits from excellent off-road parking for guests, with secure gated parking for approximately four vehicles, as well as bike storage and a shed.

The accommodation briefly comprises: entrance vestibule, hallway, kitchen, sitting room/breakfast room, rear hallway, utility room/shower room, store room, cloakroom, additional utility/boot room, first-floor landing, 3 en-suite letting bedrooms, office, cloakroom W.C., and second-floor owner's accommodation comprising a sitting room, 2 bedrooms, and a bathroom.

Overall, Aber Cottage represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire either a thriving Bed & Breakfast business in the heart of Dolgellau or a spacious and versatile home suitable for large families or multi-generational living.

Location
The ancient market town of Dolgellau sits within an area of outstanding natural beauty set in the Southern Snowdonia National Park, at the foot of the Cader Idris mountain range.
