The Old Mill Lodge is a unique, characterful cottage alongside the Mawddach estuary. Stay in this charming waterside lodge, which oozes old-world charm with amazing views.
The bridge was built in 1879 as a replacement for a ferry crossing and the lodge is said to have been added to around the 1900s. The cottage can sleep up to two guests, with a kitchen, dining and lounge nestled around the cosy log burner, perfect for an evening in around the fire. There’s also a shower room, and double bedroom with striped wooden walls all around, which just adds to the character and charm.
Outside, enjoy expansive and uninterrupted views on the terrace – the ideal place to relax, watch the local wildlife, and immerse yourself in the breath-taking scenery. And of course, you can also watch the occasional car, bike, or group of walkers go by during the day as they cross the historic bridge.
The lodge is well located for visiting guests to explore the stunning scenery of the area. The adjacent cycle track, the Mawddach Trail, which used to be the old railway track, is perfect for strolls as well as bikes. Two MiRiDER e-bikes are available for hire at the lodge, so if you fancy a ride and want to see the sights from a different point of view, please contact us to book ahead of arrival.
Slightly further afield is the seaside town of Barmouth, which includes stunning sandy beaches, and the traditional market town of Dolgellau, offering a range of artisan shops and a weekly farmers market, is only two miles away. The foothills of the majestic Cadair and Idris are on the near horizon, tempting you to explore their magnificence and beauty, and the beast that is Snowdonia is just a short drive away.
Logs for the woodburner are not included, but you can pre-order logs at the time of booking at £6 per bag (which includes kindling and firelighters), or they can be purchased directly from the lodge.
