Offering simply breath-taking views across Snowdonia and oozing luxury and sophistication, Cardigan Cottage is an extraordinary home for up to nine very lucky guests!
The cosy living spaces of the home are wonderfully open-plan, putting the lovely lounge within conversation’s distance of the dining area and kitchen. The lounge has glimmering oak flooring and a fabulous L-shaped sofa set beside a fireplace and a designer driftwood coffee table. The enormous kitchen is a paragon of style and elegance, with soothing pale blue tones set against granite countertops.
A large island doubles as a breakfast bar, and the double oven and huge fridge/freezer will guarantee all the space you need for cooking up a treat! Alongside this, there is a fabulous dining area, and just through the huge French doors which flood the room with natural light, there is an alfresco dining area! Making it just as easy to eat indoors as out!
There are four spectacular bedrooms, each unique in its design but all as sophisticated and charming as the next and with the same neutral and blue colour palette as the shared spaces! The first exquisite room features a magnificent double bed set beside the vast French doors leading into the wonderous garden. This is the perfect room for those who like to get up and go!
The second double room, on the first floor, has an even more stylish double bed, as well as a fabulous seating area. Then there is a twin room with impressive beds and a matching leather sofa in deep brown tones, and finally a bunk room for the children. The master suite enjoys an ensuite while the other rooms share two family bathrooms. All three are utterly magnificent, including full floor and wall-tiling of incredible taste, vast sinks and glamorous mirrors, walk-in rain-showers and one enormous bathtub!
And finally, the jewel in the crown of this exquisite home is its vast garden! On the terrace, you can enjoy a glass infinity balcony, with sun-loungers, casual seating and a large lawn, while across the whole garden there is alfresco dining, a huge barbeque and plenty of private parking. The highlight has got to be the incredibly hot tub, in which you can soak, soothe and stare in wonder at the stunning panoramic views of the mountains and sea!
Within walking distance, you’ll find the quaint village of Abersoch where you can enjoy a tipple or a fine meal, while you’re just half an hour from Porthmadog, the gateway to Snowdonia National Park! The Lleyn Peninsula is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an utterly wild haven for surfers and adventurers and brimming with culture and heritage!
In this region of Wales, you’ll find its first national park: the Snowdonia National Park. 823 square miles of towering mountains and shimmering lakes, it can be seen as far away as Porthmadog on the west coast! Snowdon itself is an icon of Wales, alongside 13 other majestic peaks over 3,000 feet high, ideal for climbing and hiking! But if you’re not as fit as you used to be, worry not – the chilly peak of Snowdon is even accessible by train, so you can enjoy the breath-taking views whatever your level!
Wales is a small, mountainous peninsula to the west of England with just over 3 million people (less than a third of London!), yet more than 400 castles and three expansive national parks! With over 15 million visitors a year, there’s got to be something special that brings visitors back time after time!
Could it be the breath-taking scenery? The dazzling gardens? The easy-going and welcoming folk? Or even the heritage railways that never cease to pique one’s interest?
Our personal favourites are the three national parks: the Brecon Beacons National Park, the Snowdonia National Park and the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Whether you’re into hill-walking, hiking, canoeing, mountain biking, kayaking or climbing, or the rather more adventurous surfing, hang-gliding or even a go on the only four-person zip line in Europe, you’ll find your perfect spot amid the extraordinary natural landscapes of Wales’ most treasured parks.
With water to the north, south and east, Wales has rather more than its fair share of dramatic coastline, making for not only incredible scenery but also a superb beach holiday destination! The Pembrokeshire Peninsula which looks out over the Irish Sea promises rugged and steep limestone cliffs best enjoyed from the Pembrokeshire Coast National Trail. Along the way, you will find enchanting villages, picturesque resort areas, idyllic fishing harbours, winding estuaries, and incredible, wide-open beaches
The Wales Coast Path traces the country's entire length, taking in perfect sandcastle-beaches and striking mountain passes weaving through the wilderness. The immense geological diversity can be enjoyed along with the extensive network of paths, while for some jaw-dropping architectural beauty, Caernarfon Castle and Caerphilly Castle are just two of the many sublime castles. While the utterly cosmopolitan Cardiff is brimming with splendid castles, arcades, and historical buildings, making it the perfect base for exploring the rest of the country!
Only two hours from London, getting into Wales is easy! Cardiff Airport, or one of the London airports when visiting South Wales. Other cities served by international airports in England which offer reasonable access to parts of Wales include Bristol (for south Wales), Birmingham (for mid-Wales), Liverpool and Manchester (for north Wales). Along the coastlines the roads are excellent, and there is an extensive train service throughout the country.
