Pen y Bont, Ffordd Cwm Bychan, Llanbedr

An Idyllic Grade II Listed Riverside Cottage with exceptional Lifestyle Appeal. Croeso i Pen Y Bont.

Set gracefully beside the Afon Artro in Llanbedr, this 18th-century Grade II listed stone cottage offers not only a home of remarkable heritage, but a lifestyle defined by tranquillity, nature and timeless charm. Rich in character and beautifully preserved, it is a sanctuary where history, comfort and rural elegance come together effortlessly.

This is the kind of cottage people dream of retreating to — a place where mornings begin with birdsong drifting over the river, and evenings settle softly around thick stone walls warmed by centuries of stories. The deep-set windows frame views of greenery and water, creating a sense of calm that lingers throughout the day.

In summary the accommodation comprises kitchen/diner and lounge to the ground floor with 3 bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. Each room is rich with its own unique period charm and all spaces offer a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Step outside and the river becomes part of daily life — a serene backdrop for morning coffee, quiet reading, or simply watching the water move gently past. The surrounding landscape offers endless opportunities for walking, exploring and embracing the slower pace that Llanbedr is known for.

Grade II listed, riverside, and bursting with historic charm — this is a home that invites you to live differently. To slow down. To savour. To enjoy a life shaped by nature, heritage and the quiet luxury of an idyllic Welsh setting.
