This exceptional investment opportunity features a charming portfolio of ten cottages nestled in a picturesque courtyard setting in the heart of the Conwy Valley. Situated close to the quaint village of Rowen and within the boundaries of Eryri National Park (Snowdonia), these appealing cottages were originally converted from farm buildings associated with the nearby Gwern Borter Manor. These cottages present an excellent chance for long-term residential investment or a lucrative opportunity for holiday accommodation, catering to the thriving local tourism industry. The ten cottages have been recently renovated and maintained, offering a mix of one, two, and three bedroom self-contained units. Each cottage is fully furnished and presented to a high standard, with the exception of Farriers Cottage which is currently un-furnished.
The portfolio includes: 2 three-bedroom cottages, 4 two-bedroom cottages and 4 one-bedroom cottages. All cottages feature double glazing and are equipped with either electric or oil-fired central heating. The property boasts abundant car parking, 3 enclosed paddocks, a forested area, pond, garden, driveway, and additional outbuildings/stores. The additional outbuilding provides ample potential for conversion and further expansion of the portfolio, subject to obtaining relevant consents. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a well-maintained, high-quality portfolio of cottages in a sought-after location with significant potential for both residential and holiday accommodation.

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
