Situated
in the scenic Vale of Ffestiniog, centrally located for the Snowdonia
National Park, Wenallt is a large Edwardian house close to the
centre of Penrhyndeudraeth but elevated enough to enjoy views over the
village towards the Dwyryd estuary and the Rhinog mountains behind Harlech.
Ideally situated for touring Snowdonia and the Llyn peninsula,
Wenallt is less than 2 miles/3km from the Italianate fantasy village and
gardens of Portmeirion. The world-famous Ffestiniog
narrow-gauge steam railway also runs nearby the house, with its
Penrhyn Station just a few minutes’ walk away. For garden lovers,
the little-known Plas Brondanw, created by Clough Williams-Ellis
of Portmeirion fame, is 2 miles/3km away.
Penrhyndeudraeth itself is a large village with good local services including
a Post Office/newsagent, HSBC bank with cashpoint, chemist, café/bakery,
two pubs, one of which serves food, food shops and a main line railway
station (on the Shrewsbury to Pwllheli route), all within walking distance
of Wenallt.
Porthmadog, our nearest town, (3 miles/5km) has a range
of shops, restaurants and cafés. The pretty mountain village of
Beddgelert is 7 miles/11km, castles and beaches at Harlech
and Criccieth (both 8 miles/13km).
