Boasting the best of the Welsh countryside with easy access to the coast, this family-friendly property is a great base for those in search of adventure. Come rain or shine the conservatory offers some of the best seats in the house, with gorgeous panoramic views of Llanllwni and a great roof for stargazing overhead. To explore the tranquillity of this part of Wales, pay a visit to Brechfa Forest for waymarked trails, picturesque picnic spots and a fantastic view of summer sunsets.

The cosy living room/diner is the heart of this holiday home, with a characterful wood burner set into an exposed stone fireplace creating a fantastic place to unwind at the end of each day. A lovely corner sofa ensures space for the whole family to sprawl out, with a six-seater dining table positioned behind for mealtimes. Taking inspiration from its countryside location, the property has a rustic feel, seamlessly paired with modern updates to ensure an enjoyable stay. The galley-style kitchen offers plenty of space to prepare meals, with a breakfast bar along one wall. Additional seating can be found in the conservatory with space to place board games or sit in the light, bright space with a good book.
