Description

Pumlumon Penthouse apartment covers the top two floors of a beautiful seafront Victorian terrace house, right on the glorious Aberystwyth promenade. The apartment is tastefully furnished in a 'seaside calm' style with modern and elegant fixtures and fittings. The large bay window in the open plan living area allows light to flood into the room whilst framing the magnificent uninterrupted sea view. The apartment is in a peaceful yet central location of the popular holiday resort of Aberystwyth, a stone's throw away from the beach. There is also an abundance of lovely independent shops, pubs and restaurants within a few minutes walk of the property. It really is a foodie heaven, with options to suit all tastes and budgets.

Aberystwyth is on the west coast of Wales, equidistant to the cathedral city of St Davids and the surfers' haven of Aberdaron at the western tip of the Llyn Peninsula. Within the town, there is Aberystwyth Castle and you can take a walk up Pen Dinas Hill to take a closer look at the 1850s monument, erected as a memorial to the first Duke of Wellington. At the northern end of Aberystwyth promenade, rising dramatically from the sea, Constitution Hill offers stunning views of the town, Cardigan Bay, and on a clear day, 26 mountain peaks spanning much of the length of Wales. To reach these spectacular views you can travel by train on the longest funicular electric cliff railway in Britain, which has been transporting visitors to the summit since opening in 1896.

For larger groups, there are several properties within the same building that can be booked together or individually. The apartments include; Pen y Gader Apartment, Pumlumon Penthouse, Hyddgen Apartment and Elenydd Apartment.

Reviews

It was a lovely, well equipped apartment including dishwasher and washer/dryer which came in handy when my husband decided to go for a dip in the sea! We recommend Harlech Castle and it was very easy to get there and to other attractions from Aberystwyth. Great to have a car parking space too. We had a lovely time celebrating our son’s 21st birthday.

Mrs S,

This is a superb apartment in every way. Great location directly on the promenade with wonderful, relaxing sea views from the bay window. Beautifully styled and decorated and lovely quality to everything provided. We could not have asked for more. There are several short flights of stairs to the top floor but worth the effort for what you find when you reach the top. The communications with the owner were efficient and friendly throughout. The key code access means you never have to worry about an actual key. Plenty of information provided on things to do, places to go and recommendations for good eateries. Possibly the best apartment we have stayed in during all our years of travel and we hope to return in the future.

Mrs S,

Excellent location in a well presented apartment.

Mr B,

We were very happy with Pumlumon Penthouse for our week in Aberystwyth. The whole property is in excellent condition and feels classy on arrival. The apartment itself was much more spacious than we expected and, of course, enjoys spectacular water views! The furnishings are of a high standard and tasteful, so the apartment feels warm and luxurious. The hosts have thought of everything here, so we enjoyed being able to cook our own food sometimes in the well-equipped kitchen. The apartment is at the top of the building with many stairs to access it, so it's not a good option for those who might have difficulty with stairs (especially with luggage). The car park was handy but very tight in terms of access especially when both spaces were in use. We've stayed in Aber 20+ times over the years and this is by far the most comfortable and spacious accommodation we've enjoyed. For not much more than a B&B, this apartment offers so much more and we highly recommend it for anyone wanting to be on the Prom with every creature comfort!

Dr H,

Gorgeous apartment in a perfect location. Would definitely recommend!

Ms E,

The information really needs to say that the penthouse is only accessed by stairs. I had assumed that there would be a lift. I would not have booked otherwise as I suffer from chronic arthritis. This made climbing 4 flights of stairs very difficult

Mrs Diane D,

This is a lovely well-equipped flat, with no noise pollution from the environment, however, there are 50 steps from pavement to the living area of the flat which I think should be clearly stated. The kitchen area, beds and bathrooms were all excellent with comfortable beds but the sofa/chairs were not very comfortable.

Dr M,

This apartment is in a fabulous location with views that just have to be looked and looked at. it was very clean and well equipped - we cooked and ate in and had everything we needed for this. It was great to have parking just out the back and to be so close to shops, restaurants and the chippy! We would definitely come back here to watch the sunsets and the dolphins.

Mrs N,

In the info about the apartment there was no mention of 5 sets of stairs to climb and being in our 70’s we found this very difficult. Also, there was hardly any hanging space for clothes, none for dresses at all. The living are was very small and not really suitable for 4 adults.

Previous Customer,

Very happy with the property. Very easy to book and access the property.

Mr Ceri H,

The property was clean so have given it full marks but was there was a slight issue with the oven when we used it there was a lot of smoke from residue in the oven when we were preheating it so that could do with cleaning as we had to open the window which is not ideal in November. also we like to clean the toilet whilst we are there and give the kitchen a good wipe down before we leave however other than a pack of wipes there were no other cleaning items left such as sponge to wash the pans rather than placing in dish washer or any spray cleaner we could use to clean the toilet or the kitchen sides that may be beneficial to the property as realistically people are not going to buy cleaning products during a short stay however this is a minor issue like the oven and we will be booking the property for next year. Very impressed with the property and the communication regarding the holiday leading up to it which we have not experienced with other companies so far

Mrs Claire H,
