Carla
Dating back to 1857 and once a grain store barn, this traditional gem has been transformed into a cosy cottage retreat with all the creature comforts you could wish for. Nestled in a Welsh-speaking village & tucked away down a private track, Swallow Cottage offers a slice of local life. A handy village shop, & fantastic award winning pub, a minute's walk. After a long day exploring Snowdonia, hunker down in front of the wood burning stove, or BBQ down by the riverside garden in Summer.
Llangernyw is a rural, mostly Welsh-Speaking village. It is situated on the Welsh Scenic Route. It is the site of the ancient Llangernyw Yew tree, thought to be the oldest living tree in Europe at around 4000 years old! 'The Old Stag', is the local award winning pub that is steeped in history. It serves delicious home-cooked food in a relaxed and friendly environment. There will certainly be a welcome wood fire burning throughout winter, and you can spend hours looking at all the curios they have collected over the years! They even do food to go if you call them! There are some great walks straight from the doorstep, including one that skirts the Gothic Hafodunos hall, through enchanting woodland and past a hidden waterfall. The hall is currently being restored after an arson attack in 2004, it has open days with food, drink, music and local artisan stalls in the summer which are really worth going to. There is also the Henry Jones Museum which is his childhood home and dedicated to his life as a philosopher and academic. There is private free parking for two cars outside the house
