About this property
Barn Conversion at the Old Watermill - Snowdonia & Zip World around the corner.
Modern 19th century barn conversion in the grounds of our own farmhouse, the old watermill.
Relax after a day exploring Snowdonia in our fully equipped cottage. Listen to the stream outside your bedroom window or gaze upon the amazing unpolluted night sky.
Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge freezer, coffee machine and so much more.
Fresh eggs available for breakfast from our own hens.
Free parking outside your door.
Your own private garden and many other outdoor areas to relax in by the stream or millpond. We even have our own waterwheel.
Pet friendly.
We are just a couple of miles from Llanberis & Snowdonia (Yr Wyddfa), Anglesey is just across the bridge and if you are feeling adventurous, Zip Line at the Quarry and Greenwood Adventure Park are just a few minutes away.
A rural retreat with everything handy on the doorstep if you need it.
EV charger available from May 2025 too!

About the area
Bangor
Located in Bangor, this cottage is in a rural area and on a river. While the natural beauty of Eryri National Park and Yr Wyddfa can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Zip World Penrhyn Quarry.
Travelling with kids? Consider GreenWood Forest Park, or check out an event or a game at Plas Menai National Watersports Centre. Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.

About the host
Hosted by Kerry
My family and I moved to this beautiful part of North Wales in 2021 following family connections and childhood holidays!
We enjoy exploring this beautiful area with our rescue pooch, Ollie.
We aim to provide the type of holiday accommodation that we would want for ourselves - welcoming, cosy & relaxing and spotlessly clean.
We live in the farmhouse close by (which was also the Old Watermill) so we are on hand if we are needed, but aim to leave you in peace to enjoy your holiday.

Why they chose this property
Following a family holiday in 2021, we saw Felin Uchaf and instantly fell in love!
So, we went home to Cornwall, sold everything we owned and moved here with an ageing mum. We are firm believers that you only regret the things you didn't do - so here we all are :-).

What makes this property unique
Felin Uchaf translates as 'Upper Mill' as this beautiful building used to be the old village mill. We still have the water wheel, the millpond and the stream.
Our future plans include renovating the old water wheel and bringing it back to its former glory. Maybe with some hydro electric power too but that may be just a little ambitious.
We are rural but with everything close by if its needed. Bangor, Llanberis and Caernarfon are only a ten minute car ride.
A car is useful to take in all the sights.
So, if you want beautiful scenery, wonderful fresh air, unpolluted night skies, wildlife everywhere and the sound of the stream - this is the place to be!
We also have an EV charger and well behaved pets are very welcome too (there is a small additional charge for each pet.)
