Through walls of glass, this Criccieth home welcomes the outdoors in. And when you catch a glimpse of the sea views from almost every corner of this home, you’ll know why it caught our eye. Having appeared on a couple of popular TV shows, it’s no surprise that this modern marvel is a perfect place to stay for friends and families alike. Cool and contemporary inside, it’s quite the contrast to the rugged landscape surrounding it. Just take care with the cliff edge – little ones and four-legged friends will need to be supervised. 

Clifftop Dream

Set back on a peaceful, private cul-de-sac, yet just five minutes walking distance from the local village's beach boutiques, wine bars, and eateries – this perfectly positioned holiday home undoubtedly boasts the Abersoch appeal. 

Inside, contemporary interiors ensure a comfortable stay with sleek and inviting designs throughout. We particularly love the large kitchen and dining area, which extends the indoor living space – outside and onto the terrace. On a clear day, you might be able to spot the blue sea views in the distance. After all, this home resides only a seven-minute stroll away from the sandy shores of Abersoch Beach. 

After a fun-filled day of soaking up the quintessential British seaside experience or following a round of golf at Abersoch Golf Club – head home to unwind over a group barbecue on the terrace. With the local park and playground located a minute's walk away, you'll find keeping the kids entertained here an absolute breeze. Since the home is gated, rest assured in knowing that younger children can also play freely in the garden at their own leisure. 

Come evening time; you'll have the choice of strolling down to one of the local pubs for a nightcap or curling up in front of the fireplace for a cosy night in. But at the end of a long day amidst the fresh sea air – where better to sip your glass of wine than from the large free-standing bathtub? Oh, and the underfloor heating makes getting out of the bath that little bit easier too. 



The Abersoch Appeal

Surrounded by countryside and yet conveniently close to the coast, this home offers the best of both worlds. It’s in the peaceful village of Mynytho, with a wealth of walking and cycling trails on the doorstep – this is a great choice for outdoorsy types. The house is cosy and comfortable, with a wood-burning stove for chilly weather and a well-equipped kitchen. Best of all, it boasts a delightful garden with outdoor seating and a balcony upstairs, where you can admire views stretching towards Cardigan Bay and the Snowdonia Mountain range. 

Green Hills & Sea Air

This family home is mere footsteps from Abersoch’s soft-sanded beach, and a short dander sees you in the centre of this harbour town for meals out and coastal strolls. It feels undeniably beachy in a white clapboard exterior reminiscent of the beach huts nearby. Inside, the space is far from shed-like though, with towering ceilings in the open living area and a wall of windows showing off the view of the fields outside Abersoch. A cast-iron stove in the living room and purring Aga in the kitchen provide warmth in a traditional way and the dedicated double wine fridge in the dining area can keep your whites cool as you like. 

If the sun makes an appearance, there’s a long dining table for the group out on the patio, and an added bonus is the rooftop balcony, accessed by a spiral staircase, and looking out over the countryside towards the sea. 

The Seashell Harvester

Nestled in the quaint town of Pwllheli, just steps from the sea, this home is an ideal retreat for big groups and four-legged friends. The house is divided into two apartments – one on the ground floor and the other spread across three levels – each with its own kitchen and living space. There are board games, a pool table and a hot tub to keep everyone entertained, plus a cosy electric fireplace to curl up beside after blustery beach walks. The town itself is full of character, with fish and chip shops, pubs and restaurants tucked along its narrow, winding streets. Or you can take to the seas on a wildlife cruise around Cardigan Bay to spot seabirds, seals and dolphins.

Welsh Coastal Retreat

This townhouse apartment is ideal for families and friend groups looking for a peaceful coastal retreat. There's never a dull moment here, thanks to the board games for all ages, the pool table, and the hot tub out on the private terrace. Just so you know, the home is spread over three floors, so it may not suit those who struggle with stairs. Pwllheli Beach is an easy walk away, and the nearby town has restaurants, shops and pubs to enjoy.

The Saltair

A two-minute walk from the fine sands and shallow water of Abersoch Harbour Beach, this home is perfect for a family or group of friends looking for a modern seaside escape. Inside, light and space are cleverly maximised – we loved the open-plan living area with its enormous windows and double-height ceilings. Your mornings begin here with a coffee on the comfortable sofa before choosing to breakfast on one of the sun trap balconies. 

If exploring is on the agenda, lace up your hiking boots and follow the Wales Coastal Path to Pwllheli or stay local and take the ten-minute amble into the heart of town for indie shops and fantastic seafood eateries. Surfing enthusiasts should make a beeline for Hell’s Mouth, a seven-minute drive away – keep an eye out for Bottlenose dolphins as you carve through the waves. When the day draws to a close, head back to your pad for a chilled glass of wine as the sun starts to set and an early night in the cosy bedrooms, ready to do it all again tomorrow.

Under Milk Wood

Just a short stroll from beach, this apartment is perfectly placed for a refreshing coastal retreat in Pwllheli. You can soak up traditional Welsh charm while strolling to local pubs, restaurants and cafes. It’s also the ideal base for boat trips along Cardigan Bay as well as hiking through the surrounding countryside. Parking is available and well-behaved pets are welcome to join you for a small additional fee. Inside, the rooms are simple and well suited to families with plenty of space to unwind after a day in the fresh sea air. 

The Angharad

Situated south of the Llŷn Peninsula, the seaside village of Abersoch boasts pristine beaches, breathtaking scenery and serene waters primed for sailing. You'll find this home here, tucked away amidst the verdant pastures of the village's rural surroundings. Just a fifteen-minute stroll from the town centre, the harbour and the nearby golf course, not to mention a delightful tangle of beaches, this home provides a tranquil base for families and large groups.

Fringed by lush landscaped gardens and boasting an array of patios, this home beckons you to relax in nature. We love the outdoor dining area and lounge, dressed to the nines for comfort with plush seating and ample seating for alfresco banquets. Spend peaceful mornings roosted here, cradling a cup of tea as you admire your surroundings. After a day at the beach, retreat to the cosy open-plan living space to huddle around the flat-screen television before tucking into an alfresco feast at sunset.

Willow Warbler

Perched on the headland off the Wales Coast Path, this characterful home offers a fantastic retreat for families or friends. We love the sea and countryside views from some of the bedrooms and the dining area. Another major highlight here is the garden with its two patios and panoramic outlook. A former cow shed has been transformed into a spacious games room with pool, table tennis, and air hockey. There’s also a wooden cabin with a log burner, TV, card table, wi-fi and a desk for those who need to catch up on work. If you have any time left to explore, Aberdaron is 1 kilometre away, while the sandy beach at Traeth Porthor is 2 kilometres from this home.
