Ty Pren: Homely Lodge on a Mountain Farm | Cabin in Beddgelert
2 Bedroom Cabin in Beddgelert
Ty Pren is our cosy, homely lodge set above Beddgelert on our working mountain farm. Large windows frame wide views of the Eryri (Snowdonia) mountains, making for a warm retreat with full central heating. Perfect for families and we’re just 7 minutes from the Rhyd Ddu Snowdon path, with rugged mountain trails starting right from your door. While located near the daily activity of our farm yard, the lodge is your own self-contained space to enjoy the peace of the hills.
The space
Ty Pren is a detached lodge, arranged all on one level once inside (following the access steps from the car park).
Living & Dining: A bright, open-plan kitchen and living area where large windows bring the mountain landscape inside.
Rest & Refresh: Two comfortable bedrooms (one double, one twin). The lodge features a shower room plus the added convenience of an additional separate room with toilet and basin—ideal for groups and longer stays.
Layout: Ty Pren is an intimate space for four adults but is perfectly sized for couples or families.
Connect: Reliable free fibre Wi-Fi, suitable for streaming or remote work.
Practicality: A washing machine and dryer are located in a shared outbuilding approximately 50 metres from the cottage. Outside, there is a private patio area with seating to enjoy the setting.
Life on the Farm & Privacy
Located near our traditional farm yard and sheep pens, the lodge offers an authentic stay on a working mountain farm. While it’s generally a very peaceful setting, you may catch occasional glimpses of farm life—from sheep being moved to the odd tractor passing by—part of the quiet rhythm of rural Welsh life.
Exploring Eryri
We are located just 7 minutes from the Rhyd Ddu Snowdon path, with various trails starting directly from our farm gate. Please note: these are rugged mountain paths and can be wet and boggy—sturdy, waterproof boots are essential for exploring the local area.
Guest access
Parking: Free off-road parking is available directly next to the cottage—please just ensure the Ty Pren gate is closed behind you.
Arrival & Steps: To reach the lodge from the parking area, there are six steps down to the patio level. From the patio, there are two small steps into the lodge itself. Once inside, the accommodation is arranged entirely on one level.
The Scenic Walk to Beddgelert: A private footpath leads directly from our farm down through the fields and ancient woodland into the village (approx. 10 mins downhill / 20 mins uphill). You’ll find traditional Welsh pubs, a small shop, and local places to eat. As this is a natural mountain path, it is unpaved, uneven, and can be very boggy in wet weather—sturdy, waterproof boots are essential.
The Alternative Route: If you prefer to avoid the steeper fields, you can drive to the bottom of our private farm track and park there. From there, it is a short, flatter stroll of a few hundred yards along the main road (please note there is no pavement on this short stretch of road) into the village centre.
The Drive Up: Access to the farm is via a 1/2 mile private concrete track. It is a steady, winding climb with cattle grids. While well-maintained and suitable for all standard cars, it is a rural mountain road, so we recommend taking it steady—especially if you are arriving for the first time after dark.
Other things to note
Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) from the Door: For very experienced hikers, it is possible to summit Yr Aran directly from our farm and continue along the ridge to the Snowdon summit. This is a long, demanding day involving scrambling and high-level navigation. We have a detailed guide in our guestbook —please only attempt this with full mountain kit and a respect for our farm boundaries and gates.
The Craflwyn Circular: A beautiful, rugged route leads up behind the farmhouse and down into the National Trust's Craflwyn Estate. It follows the river into Beddgelert before returning uphill to the Lodge. Note: parts of our upper fields are persistently boggy (waterproof boots are essential!), and we ask all guests to ensure every farm gate is securely closed behind them.
The Rhyd Ddu Path: If you prefer a more established trail, the Rhyd Ddu path is just a 7-minute drive away. It offers a steady, scenic climb with spectacular views of the coastline.
The Coastal Weather Escape: If it's a cloudy day on the farm, head to Porthmadog (just 15 minutes away). The coast often has its own weather system and stays in the sun even when the mountains are in the mist! Explore the harbour, the steam railways, or continue further to the stunning beaches of the Llŷn Peninsula.
