To the rear, the garden enjoys the wonderful setting of the waterfall directly behind the house creating a beautiful and peaceful outdoor environment.

Location, amenities and community

Abercywarch is a peaceful rural hamlet close to Dinas Mawddwy, surrounded by the spectacular scenery of the Welsh countryside and Eryri National Park.

Despite its quiet countryside setting the property is less than a mile from Dinas Mawddwy, which offers a lovely range of local amenities and a particularly welcoming community.

Local facilities include a primary school and Cylch Meithrin (Welsh medium early years playgroup) making the area attractive to families with young children. There is also a childrens play park and a popular community garden providing lovely spaces for residents to enjoy.

Dinas Mawddwy also benefits from two cafes, two pubs, one of which also serves Chinese food and a popular, well known coffee stop that attracts visitors to the area.

The village has a strong community with activities and groups including the Young Farmers Club, helping to create a friendly and active rural community.
Transport and connectivity


Despite its peaceful rural setting the area benefits from the fflecsi on demand bus service, offering convenient local transport with journeys bookable up to an hour in advance. This flexible service provides a useful alternative to traditional bus timetables and helps connect the local community with surrounding areas.

The property also benefits from full fibre broadband offering excellent internet connectivity and making it particularly suitable for those working from home or looking to enjoy countryside living without compromising on modern connectivity.

The larger market towns of Machynlleth and Dolgellau provide a wider range of shops, services and facilities with the A470 offering convenient connections throughout Mid and North Wales.
Viewing highly recommended


This property has been a much loved home for the current owners for the past eight years. Its combination of traditional stone built character, extensive renovations, modern comforts, beautiful waterfall views, additional land and welcoming local community makes it a particularly special offering.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this property has to offer. The cottage is deceptively spacious with considerably more internal space than its exterior appearance might initially suggest. Photographs and dimensions alone simply dont do justice to the layout, space and character of the home.

Whether you are looking for a permanent countryside home, a quieter lifestyle or somewhere to escape and enjoy the beauty of rural Wales, this is a wonderful opportunity to purchase a unique home in a truly picturesque setting.

We would strongly encourage interested buyers to arrange a viewing to fully appreciate the space, improvements and special setting of this lovely cottage.
