Y Becws, Llanbedr

Y Becws is a beautifully restored stone barn conversion set on a 200-acre working farm near Llanbedr in Gwynedd. Originally an old bakery, this single-storey retreat retains its original bread oven within a large stone inglenook fireplace. Exposed beams and high ceilings fill the open-plan living space. A gas woodburning-effect stove sits on a raised slate hearth. The fully glazed hallway with French doors opens onto a private sheltered courtyard.

The barn sits in an elevated position between the Rhinog Mountain range and Cardigan Bay. Views stretch across the Llyn Peninsula to Bardsey Island. The patio is a sun trap for watching sunsets over the sea. Dark skies make it perfect for stargazing.

One king-size bedroom opens onto the courtyard through patio doors. The modern shower room has a powerful shower. The open-plan kitchen includes a gas oven, microwave, slimline dishwasher and fridge. An external utility room houses the washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer. Two TVs with Freeview and WiFi keep you connected.

Harlech Castle stands 3 miles away (8 minutes). Sandy beaches line the coast at 3 miles (7 minutes). Barmouth and the Mawddach Estuary sit 8 miles away (15 minutes). Portmeirion village is 12 miles distant (20 minutes).

Y Becws suits couples seeking peace and spectacular coastal views. Book this romantic barn conversion for a quiet escape in Snowdonia National Park.
