Glan Yr Afon is a thoroughly charming and attractive period house, occupying a dramatic and beautiful setting. Ideal for those seeking secluded and private countryside living, yet still within easy reach of local amenities. The property offers principal accommodation and two luxury cabins, currently used as holiday lets and family overflow accommodation.

The house itself has delightful whitewashed elevations outside, while inside there are three bedrooms and comfortable, beautifully presented living space, combining splendid character features with elegant, understated modern fittings. The ground floor has a beautifully presented sitting room in which to relax and unwind, with its rustic wooden flooring, fireplace fitted with a log burner and dual aspect welcoming plenty of natural light and framing those magnificent countryside views. The ground floor also has an open-plan kitchen and dining area with historic flagstone flooring and exposed stone walls, as well as a Rayburn range, recessed into the fireplace.
