Built in 1886, Minafon is a grand stone house in an elevated position in the village of Bontddu ( 'Black Bridge') 5 miles from the Seaside town of Barmouth and just over 4 miles from the Historic town of Dolgellau. In this double fronted semi-detached house there are 2 lounges, a separate dining room, a good sized kitchen, 4 spacious bedrooms, a huge bathroom and 2 additional loos. To the rear, there is a large terraced garden (merging into woodland beyond) with furnished areas for relaxing and al fresco dining, making it a great place for family get-togethers. To the front, a smaller garden is bounded by a stone wall on the other side of which flows the Afon Cwm Llechen shortly before it joins the Afon Mawddach. Minafon's location in the southern part of the National Park provides an excellent base for exploring Snowdonia's towering mountains, huge forests, rushing rivers, crystal clear lakes and a plethora of attractions that cater for visitors of every afe and ability.
