Overlooking Aberdovey’s 4-mile stretch of beach, this grand townhouse is a fantastic choice for large group gatherings and is well positioned for a traditional seaside holiday.

The property is within a row of picturesque pastel-coloured houses and offers wonderful views from all its front windows, setting you up for a relaxing and picturesque holiday exploring the coast and countryside. Younger guests will love long days filled with sandcastle building, crabbing from the jetty and wildlife spotting on the water – if you’re lucky, you may spot some bottlenose dolphins during your visit. When it’s time to explore, you can join the Wales Coast Path 0.5 miles away and head along to Tywyn, a pretty harbour village 4 miles north.

Gorgeous inside and out, the property has a brightly painted facade and inside, wooden flooring, lots of exposed stone and quality furnishings. When you’re all beached out, settle into the elegant lounge area, a beautifully decorated room with plush seating, a TV and an armchair where you can relax with a book or watch a film with your pets nestled on the rug under your feet. At the rear of the room, additional seating and a dining table for sociable group meals. A stone fireplace with an open fire adds to the charm. The country cottage-style kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for meal prep, as well as a Krups coffee machine so your morning cuppa is always up to standard.

Both canine and human adventure seekers will revel in the activities available locally, from boating to stand-up paddleboarding. The property’s location within the Snowdonia National Park makes it a true haven for walkers of all skill levels. If you’re keen for a more leisurely experience, explore Aberdovey’s independent shops and galleries, and enjoy tea and Welsh cakes in local cafés.

This is a fantastic house in a perfect location. Love that the enormous bedrooms (with very comfy beds) mostly look out Over the sea. We swam every morning and it was a luxury to be so close to the beach. Fell in love with the peacefulness of Aberdyfi.

What a beautiful house and amazing location. Three generations loved our holiday together and there was something for everyone to do. Could not have asked for a better place to spend our summer break.

A well presented comfortable base, right at the beachfront of Aberdovey. We had a great time and would definitely come again if we had the same group size.
