In the heart of Dolgellau is Hope House (Ty-Gobaith), a beautifully renovated historic town house packed full of charm and oozes character throughout. Brought up to a luxurious standard, the property comfortably sleeps up to six guests in three bedrooms across four levels, including a mezzanine. Dolgellau on your doorstep makes a wonderful location to visit, yet an even better base to visit the nearby villages, mountains, forests and meandering river to the coastline.

The front door from the street opens into a sizeable hallway with coat hooks, a chair and shoe and boot storage. To the right is both a kitchen, breakfast room and a gorgeous lounge diner. Original features of the historic property are present throughout. The cream coloured units in the kitchen are stylish with a white stone effect worktop and include a built in eye level oven and grill, gas hob, dishwasher and free standing fridge freezer. A small breakfast table with two seats is positioned at the other end of the room in a bright spot next to the window. Heading through into the lounge diner, this stunning room also shows off the property's historical features with a beautiful inglenook fireplace built into the stone wall to one end. A log burner is located within the fireplace on a slate hearth surrounded by brass accessories and string lights. Two armchairs are positioned around the fireplace, and opposite, a six seater traditional farmhouse dining table is the perfect spot for social evenings in. There is also a useful utility room with a washing machine, dryer, games, and a working area.

Heading up to the first floor, the layout comprises a double master bedroom, a twin room, which can be made into a Super King and family bathroom. The double room has beautifully contrasting dark wood beams against the white ceiling. A white wooden framed double bed is positioned to one side with bedside tables and lamps. The opposite end of the room features a large chest of drawers, clothes storage cupboard and an additional table with lamp, alongside a charming wooden rocking chair. A stable door opens out onto a decked balcony to the rear of the property, maximising the outdoor space. The second bedroom, a twin, is a cosy space with two divan single beds, (which can be made into a Super King on request) alongside traditional furniture and a built in cupboard for clothes storage. The main bathroom is beautifully decorated with Victorian style bathroom units including a basin, WC and bath with shower over.

With a quirky layout to the building, the second floor of this elegant town house features a double height lounge with a games room area. With a vaulted ceiling and tall windows, this open plan space features two large sofas, Smart TV and an impressive stone fireplace with a log burner. A table football game is located away from the seating area, ideal for the kids and adults alike. A door from this area leads into a secondary bathroom with basin, WC and walk in shower cubicle. Completing the layout of the property, a staircase leads up to a mezzanine bedroom located above the lounge. With a superking bed, which can be split into twin beds, a chest of drawers and side chair, there are electric Velux windows in the pitched roof to allow in natural light.

The outdoor area and garden at the back of the property as well as steps up to the first floor balcony, also accessed from the double bedroom. The balcony provides a sheltered access into the rear of Hope House, with a great bike storage area as well as log storage for the log burners. It's only a short walk from the property to all the amenities the town offers, from pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops. Dolgellau is a great base to explore Southern Snowdonia as well as the coastal areas nearby. There are also some fantastic walks including the Mawddach Trail, a nine mile walking route following an old disused railway line from Dolgellau to Barmouth - a wonderful seaside resort with a lovely beach. For more experienced hiker looking for a challenge, the walking route to Cader Idris, the highest mountain in Southern Snowdonia, is about 15 minutes drive away.
