At Cader Uchaf the location is breathtaking, and the ancient house is a delight. This is one of the best-located old farmhouses of Snowdonia, enjoying some 750 acres of land (effectively an entire slope) of majestic Cader Idris mountain. Despite feeling you have your 'own' mountain, it's only 6 miles to golden sandy beaches, making this one of the best holiday locations in Wales. It's more about location than luxury here, ideal for walkers and those that want seclusion.  We'd say this was one of our more basic cottages, but we'd stay ourselves as we love the location so much,.  Note we're also the agent for the sister farm just a couple of fields away - Cader Isaf. Y llecyn perffaith rhwng mor a mynydd Meirion. Mae'r fferm mewn man godidog yng nghanol Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri. Cewch olygfeydd anhygoel o Gader Idris, a'r cyfli I grywdro llwybrau troed diri, gan gynnwys Llwybr Llynnau Cregennan sydd gerllaw. Hyn oll, ac eto rydych o fewn 10 munud i draethau euraidd glannau'r Fawddach Bermo a'r Friog. Wrth law hefyd cewch ganolfan yr RSPB ar bwys Gwesty'r George III yn Llyn Penmaen - llecynnau o Ddiddordeb Gwyddonol Arbennig (SSSI) ac olion cyn-hanes ar Bared y Cefnhir. Mae hwn yn dy arbennig mewn lle arbennig!
