A new year means plenty of new travel opportunities, with staycations still very much on the rise.
As lovely as a stay in a cottage or B&B is, there's something special about a stay in a quirky building that offers a unique aesthetic. With that January winter chill still in the air, the idea of a cosy staycation with a wood burning stove sounds very appealing.
Brynkir Tower is on the outskirts of Porthmadog in North Wales and described as 'magical' by visitors. The gothic tower is described as 'perfect' for a romantic getaway' by Sykes Cottages, with an internal spiral stone staircase that leads you to each of the six rooms.
