Ty Nant, Corwen, LL21

Overview

A rare and genuinely exceptional opportunity: a beautifully appointed 5-bedroom stone farmhouse combined with three fully operational 5-star luxury holiday cottages, set within 9 private acres on the edge of Snowdonia National Park. Generating strong year-round rental income from three individually branded cottages — each with private hot tub, Berwyn Mountain views and a consistently five-star guest record — this is a business and lifestyle acquisition in equal measure.

Full Description

Ffynnon Wen — meaning White Well in Welsh — takes its name from the natural spring that feeds the entire property. Sitting on the edge of Snowdonia National Park above the Dee Valley, with panoramic views across the Berwyn Mountains, this is a property that has been assembled with real intelligence and care over nine years by its current owners — a garden designer and engineer — and now offers a seamless transition to the right buyer.

The Farmhouse

A substantial and handsome stone farmhouse with genuine character. The kitchen/dining room is the heart of the house — a high-quality, well-appointed space with a view that will

never tire. The drawing room is large but intimate, anchored by a superb inglenook and log burner. A utility room and a useful dry basement — from which you can observe the spring water flowing through — complete the ground floor. Five bedrooms upstairs, including a principal with ensuite, and a luxurious family bathroom. A private terrace overlooks the landscaped gardens and the valley below.

The Cottages

Owl, Dairy and Hayloft are arranged around a courtyard to the rear of the farmhouse. Each has its own private hot tub, patio and barbecue area, and each looks out over the Berwyn Mountains. Two of the three are generously sized — open plan living, three double bedrooms, two bathrooms — and one is a beautifully conceived couples' cottage. All are fully equipped to a luxury standard and maintained to the level that has earned consistently five-star reviews across booking platforms. A shared games room and bike store serve the guest complex, with dedicated parking for up to 12 vehicles kept entirely separate from the owner's courtyard.

The Land & Eco Credentials

Nine acres in total, seven of which form part of an active rewilding project. A lake has been created, owl boxes are occupied by tawny owls, and house martins and swallows nest throughout the site. The property operates entirely off mains water — fed by a natural spring and borehole that has never run dry — with private drainage throughout. The elevated, open position offers strong potential for solar and wind generation, making a fully off-grid operation a realistic and achievable goal.

Development Potential

The land, the lake, and the existing infrastructure offer a compelling platform for a buyer with ambition. Lakeside lodges, a wellness or yoga retreat, an eco-centre — the site lends itself to multiple directions. Any development would of course be subject to planning, but the bones of something genuinely special are already in place.

Location

Corwen sits at the gateway to Snowdonia — within reach of the mountains, the coast, and the rich cultural landscape of North Wales. The Dee Valley is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property occupies an elevated, private position with views that change with every season.
