Overview:
Bodorwel Cottage is located in upper Penrhyndeudraeth, and is a traditional Welsh miner’s cottage dating from 1851. Formally associated with a local forge, it now provides a comfortable base for exploring Snowdonia and North Wales.
Bodorwel’s key attraction is it’s location beside and under the Ffestiniog Railway. The railway literally runs along the garden wall, words and pictures do not do the experience of a steam train going by justice!
Bodorwel is available for short breaks and full weeks.

Bodorwel offers two double rooms, both with a good view, and a travel cot. Heating is via night storage heaters and a wood burning stove in the lounge. Electricity and wood (Oct-May) are provided.
