If you’re one of those people for whom ‘mountain or beach’ is a hard choice, Snowdonia, in Wales, may be just what you’re looking for. For some, it’s a surprise to find out that the national park isn’t just mountains. In fact, it has tons of award-winning Blue Flag beaches, each one with a picture-perfect backdrop of rolling hills or rugged cliffs. Take your pick from family-friendly sandy beaches to secluded coves. And if you really must, the mountains await just inland.
Here at Coastal Cottages, our range of self-catering holiday cottages in Wales will get you one step closer to those gorgeous sea views. Choose from large family homes with room for all the kids, or rustic barn conversions with luxury add-ons like a hot tub or a swimming pool. Snowdonia is a wonderful dog-friendly destination, so make sure Fido is looked after with a safely enclosed garden and plenty of space to run around. Whatever you need, just let us know and we’ll do the work for you.
From the beautiful white-sand arc of Cardigan Bay in the South West to Morfa Beach’s rock pools and dunes, our cottages really are everywhere. And the coastline here is so spectacular that it may be difficult to decide. The Llyn Peninsula, or ‘Snowdon’s Arm’ is a stunning mixture of almost tropical-looking turquoise waters and adrenaline-fueled waves, while the castles at Conwy and Caernarfon add a little history to your beach stay. Whichever you prefer, we’ll have the cottage to suit you.
