Barmouth Closed Reservoir

An interesting piece of Barmouth history is located in the grounds. This mainly subterranean stone built reservoir is a feat of Victorian engineering and was the drinking water supply to Barmouth for many years. It is now disconnected. Full survey plans are available. Ripe for conversion and so solid its roof could potentially be investigated for use as helipad!

Exterior

The grounds are beautiful with landscaped terraces, woodland and a cascading stream. The property is sheltered in the lee of the hillside facing the coast and consequently in a light and sunny position with spectacular panoramic views across Cardigan bay and positioned to enjoy spectacular sunsets. There are lawns, flower beds, mature bushes and shrubs and a bluebell wood. There is a fig tree and an apple tree and a space for a vegetable garden. The cascading stream leads down to a pond. Subject to planning, the area adjacent to the pond would make a lovely spot for mobile sauna complemented by quick dip in the fresh water mountain pond. All the accommodation benefits from private seating areas, there are terraces, patios and balconies galore. A long private road with roadside lawn (shared short section from main road with owner's cottage) leads up to the property where there is an abundance of parking plus the garage.

History of Ceilwart Uchaf

An inscription on an inglenook beam dates the oldest part of the property back to 1645 where there are exposed truck frame timbers. The farmhouse itself is mentioned in old guide books and its proximity to an old drover's road suggests that this may have provided accommodation to drovers as they made their journey with their dogs and Welsh Black Cattle to market in London.
