Enjoying an elevated position in the heart of Aberdovey, gather a group at this stunning home which boasts panoramic coastal views, close to Snowdonia National Park.

There’s a warm welcome for two VIPs—very important pets—as well as eight human guests at this superb family house, high above the picturesque seaside village of Aberdovey. A wonderful all-year-round location for families and friends, the detached property offers spectacular views of the Dyfi estuary and Cardigan Bay from every window in the house.

Beautifully furnished in contemporary style, with marine touches, the spacious holiday home is full of character. The comfortable lounge and open-plan dining area and kitchen have large windows that flood the space with light. A patio door opens to a full-width decked balcony with outdoor furniture where you can sit in the sun with your pets and enjoy those fabulous views. There are four inviting bedrooms: three doubles and a twin, plus a glamorous bathroom. A lower-level games room leads to the sub-tropical garden. A balcony on the first floor has a table, chairs and BBQ, where you can drink in the scenic vista.

Aberdovey’s 5-mile stretch of golden sandy beach is canine heaven, and there’s a great range of fun outdoor activities for all ages, from walking to sailing and windsurfing. For an outing you and your canine buddies can both enjoy, head for Tywyn (4 miles), to climb aboard the historic Talyllyn Railway. Pre-booked dogs are welcome passengers but must sit on the floor. Their tickets cost £4, and they receive a special doggy bag. The steam train runs 7 miles to the foothills of the Snowdonia National Park, where there is a wealth of walking trails for you and your four-legged pals to explore. En-route, alight at Dolgoch station to see the famous trio of beautiful waterfalls and let your dogs have a satisfying splash before returning home.

October half-term. There was rain for a time every day but we got to watch the weather across the estuary from the huge picture windows of Ty Gwylan. We greatly enjoyed our stay, loved the upside down set up of the house. Rooms spacious and well organised, with beautiful art work in many places. While we were there we explored the village, TalyllynRead more Railway, the miniature train from Fairbourne, the footbridge to Barmouth, and over the estuary to the reserves at Cors Dyfi, Ynys-hir, and Ynylas.
