The cottage has been lovingly renovated to a very high standard, and features a peaceful, nature-filled garden with far-reaching views. You don't want to miss out on the huge two-person soaking tub, perfect to relax in after a day's hiking. This is our home away from home that we want to share while we travel, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do! The space The cottage is hundreds of years old, and as such is a cosy, characterful space. The cottage is warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and is filled with art, colour, comfortable furniture and interesting objects. We both love to walk, and after a day up in the mountains, nothing is better than a soak in the two-person round, stone bathtub in the "post-apocalyptic chique" bathroom, or sitting on the Japanese cedarwood stool under the pouring rainfall shower. The bathrooms have heated floors; one slate, one copper - we hope you like our twist on traditional Welsh materials. After a soak, it's time for dinner. Take your pick from al fresco in the garden under the apple tree, sometimes with a roaring fire in the firepit, or dine at the hardwood peninsula in the fully-featured kitchen, on tractor seat (from actual tractors) stools. They have the seal of approval from my 86 year old grandfather, so it goes without saying that they're comfortable. Once you've dined, it's relaxation time - let the dishwasher deal with the hard stuff, and either kick back in the living room in front of the enamelled barge stove and TV, or relax in the summer-house in the garden, watching the sun set over the mountains, while sheep and birds serenade you. Finally, it's time for bed. Upstairs, the two bedrooms each offer space for two - the master has a king-sized antique bed (antique, as it is in part 17th c. and in part 19th c., but has very 21st c. comfort!), 1920's gentlemen's wardrobe, and views to the mountains, and the second bedroom has two 1930's twin beds, and a 1930's wardrobe. Don't forget the aeroplane, I'm told. There's an aeroplane. Hanging from the ceiling. In the master bedroom. I hope you like it. I do. Guest access You will have full and exclusive access to the entire cottage and garden. There is parking directly in front of the property on a private, gravelled driveway. Other things to note Please do be aware that as this is an old cottage, some of the ceiling are low - I (Max) am 6'2" (188cm) and am comfortable there, but do have to duck in one or two spots! If you are over 6'4" (193cm) you might find the kitchen ceiling low! We do also have an open staircase, so if staying with children please bear this in mind. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Printer ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - Up to 10 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina ### Things to do - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Spelunking nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,023 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96200000/96192800/96192757/345894ec.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pen Y Bryn - Two Bedroom Cottage, Sleeps 4 Llanrwst - Kitchen - Washing machine - Outdoor space - Parking available £408 includes taxes & fees 9 Jan - 10 Jan 2026 [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-09&endDate=2026-01-10&selected=96192757&PinnedHotelID=96192757&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/24000000/23550000/23547700/23547682/79586d52.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gwynant Bach is situated in Rowen the centre of the Snowdonia Rowen - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 24 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-03&endDate=2026-01-04&selected=23547682&PinnedHotelID=23547682&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90010000/90000800/90000800/ec29ff50.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Swan Cottage - One Bedroom Cottage, Sleeps 2 Rowen - Kitchen - Free Wi-Fi - Microwave £345 includes taxes & fees 3 Jan - 4 Jan 2026 [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-03&endDate=2026-01-04&selected=90000800&PinnedHotelID=90000800&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113370000/113369700/113369663/7e70743e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### IXORA Hotel and Spa Conwy - Spa - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 9.0 Wonderful 111 reviews £103 includes taxes & fees 17 Jan - 18 Jan 2026 [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-17&endDate=2026-01-18&selected=113369663&PinnedHotelID=113369663&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Contactless check-in and check-out are available ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM Contactless check-out ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Check-out instructions The host requires you to complete the following before checking out: Turn off the lights, lock the doors and return the keys Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host. ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs and cats only 2 total (up to 10 kg per pet) ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome Note from host: We have an open staircase ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking allowed: in designated areas ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).

Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alex S. 2 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Idyllic cottage We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Apple Tree Cottage. It’s a really lovely little cottage, small but perfectly formed and really thoughtfully kitted out by the owners. Quirky decor all adds to the charm. Two great bathrooms, loved the huge bath and the rainfall shower, comfy beds, great living space. A lovely private garden full of nature tops it off. ##### Alex S.
