A Spectacular Upland Farming Estate
Summary
Nannau, an estate steeped in Welsh and British history, today represents a unique opportunity to acquire one of the most significant rural holdings in Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.
Situated within the coastal hills above the Afon Mawddach a short distance upstream from it's estuary. Comprising a rich tapestry of mature woodland, pasture, ffrid and hill grazing, interspersed with numerous streams and three significant peaks, Nannau provides every environment which characterises the region.
Centred around a substantial in-hand farming and forestry enterprise, currently covering around 2,837 acres (three quarters of the total estate), with a further 498 acres potentially available to be brought in-hand in from March 2027.
The estate also includes a range of lodges and cottages, three of which are operated as high-quality holiday lets. In addition there are three let farms, a number of unique and traditional buildings offering further development and diversification options and substantial scope for delivering environmental benefits.
Nannau provides the highly desirable combination of scale, diversified income and rich natural assets.
The Nannau Estate
Nannau is an exceptional and diverse mixed-use estate offering an established farming, forestry and property business with a growing holiday accommodation enterprise.
Bounded by the Afon Mawddach to the west and encompassing the Foel Offrwm and Rhobel Fawr mountains, its rural location affords the desirable combination of peace and privacy.
The owners of Nannau have carefully managed the residential, agricultural and forestry assets. The estate, which already provides excellent temporary accommodation for owners, also offers several options to develop an impressive main residence.
In recent years significant investment has been made in three unique, high-quality holiday cottages, a business which could be expanded further. The location and diversity of environments at Nannau presents potential to incorporate an eco-tourism business at the heart of the National Park, building on the growing reputation of Nannau as a centre for walking and other outdoor pursuits.
Nannau balances plentiful diversification opportunities alongside extensive existing enterprises - a farming and forestry business operating at scale, three holiday cottages, 8 further residential properties, commercial income and plentiful opportunities for further development.
The topography of Nannau, with it's vast woodland cover, provides excellent stalking and shooting opportunities, with further sporting potential afforded by the attractive section of the Afon Mawddach in the southwest.
The natural capital assets provide significant potential to undertake a range of environmental projects including woodland creation and peatland restoration, as well as many biodiversity enhancement projects.
The Nannau Estate represents a exceptional opportunity to purchase a diverse holding, with significant history and potential, in the heart of Eryri National Park.
