  • "Fantastic long weekend in an ideal location, just needed one trip to the nearest town for some firewood, otherwise we didn’t need to use the car as lots of nice walks all local."

  • "We just got back from a week's stay in the wonderful Nanthir House."

    With the sudden snow it could easily have been longer, and one of our party was forced to stay an extra night because of it (she didn't mind too much). The house somehow managed to be cosy and warm even while it was -4 outside with snow on the ground even before we lit the log burner. Its a very peaceful , well equipped place with a hot rub in the snow and the milky way above being one of the highlights.

    Wow, thanks for your lovely feedback. We’re so glad you appreciated the coziness amongst the fresh snow and took time to soak in the Milky Way. Part of the beauty of absolutely no light pollution and pure dark sky. Can’t wait for your return.. James Property Owner

  • "Perfect place to get away."

    Peaceful break from the stresses of daily life. Walks close by and a short drive away from local town. The house was well equiped for 10 people with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. We would be happy to go back and to recommend to others. The hot tub was a great bonus

  • "The property was clean , comfortable and in an idyllic situation."

    First impression was that the outside area needed to be spruced up. Stunning views compensated for the initial concern. Red kites and swifts flying in blue sky! Sitting room: very comfortable, could probably benefit from some additional side tables. Kitchen: On the whole well equipped, excellent range cooker. Shortage of drinking glasses and dinner plates rather ancient. Beds comfortable with good linen. If staying for a week more coat hangers would be required. We would return if staying in the area again. James a pleasant host.

    Thanks for your feedback Mrs Hobbs, new drinking glasses have been delivered to the property and new dinner plates ordered. Glad you enjoyed our stunning views and appreciated the red kites and swifts gliding overhead. It was great to meet you and I look forward to your return. James Property Owner

  • "The property is lovely and the garden is fantastic - the dogs really enjoyed it!"

    The facilities and extras were great. The owner was very friendly and offered us ideas of walks in the area. The only negative was as our dogs were small they managed to escape under the gates but we blocked them off with things we found around the garden!!! Also a hose would be a benefit to clean the dogs down after a walk. Would book again

Enjoying a rural setting in the heart of Wales, along with a spacious garden with hot tub and furniture, Nanthir is a magnificent escape for families looking to come together and experience this idyllic region.

Step in from the large driveway into the hall, leading off to the lounge where you can curl up in front of the woodburning stove and chat about the adventures to come.

The kitchen invites the head chef to relish in a hearty cooking session, equipped with all the mod cons required for a short stay, whilst the dining area is perfect for hosting mealtimes.

A back door leads out to the spacious garden patio with ample seating, a hot tub and a barbecue area, perfect for entertaining long into the night.

The first bedroom lies on the ground-floor and features a double bed, whilst upstairs there are two super-king-size rooms, each with zip/link beds and one with an en-suite shower, plus a double bedroom, served by two bathrooms.

The final bedroom sits at the top of the tower on the second-floor, presented in a galleried octagonal style with a relaxed seating area and uplifted by natural light from the many windows.
