Property code: OC-94036

Hidden away in your own private garden adjacent to the owner’s property, this beautifully styled, modern lodge is perfect for small families or couples looking for a trendy, bolthole retreat in coastal North Wales. Located less than 1 mile away from the popular beach of Kinmel Bay, the area offers classic seaside family fun, Kinmel Dunes Nature Reserve, and windsurfing and canoeing for water sport enthusiasts. Take to the promenade for a walk or bike ride and explore the neighbouring beach towns of Rhyl and Towyn, both within 2 miles. Slightly further afield you can visit the historic Conwy Castle (15 miles), the picturesque Great Orme (16.5 miles), and the vibrant seaside town of Llandudno (15 miles). Sat just outside the lesser explored Clwydian Range AONB, and with the popular Snowdonia National Park (Eryri), this coastal retreat is a fantastic, all year round destination to enjoy the variety of North Wales.

Opening the gate to your private retreat, take a small step inside this single-level lodge and you are immediately greeted by a spacious, well-designed interior. The entrance opens into a long hallway leading to the heart of the home – an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area. This space is complete with a dining table for four and a comfortable sofa with additional high-quality beanbags; perfect for those cosy evenings watching your favourite film on the Smart TV. The first stop along the hallway is a tastefully decorated double bedroom with TV, offering a cosy retreat for parents and couples. Continuing down the hall, you'll find the beautifully tiled, modern family bathroom with a generously sized walk-in shower, WC and basin. The final bedroom has been created with the children in mind, featuring bunk beds, a smart TV and a bunch of games and Lego sets so the younger members of the group have got somewhere to retreat and have fun together.The allure of this lodge extends beyond its interior, as the property boasts a lovely outdoor space. Bi-folding doors seamlessly connect the open-plan living area to an enclosed private garden. Here, you can slip into your white robes and unwind in the inviting hot tub, rustle up dinner in the summer and indulge in the outdoors until late with outside dining table and chairs. Additionally, both children and parents will appreciate the play area at the bottom of the garden, ensuring that every member of the group finds enjoyment in the outdoor haven. Not forgetting the dog; with an outside doggie tap to hose your furry friend down after a fun day at the beach. The combination of comfort, style, and location makes this Kinmel Bay retreat an ideal destination for all the family, including the dog.

We had a truly wonderful stay in North Wales and couldnt have asked for better accommodation.

Every detail had been thoughtfully considered, and it was both stylish and incredibly comfortable a real home away from home. One of the highlights was the private garden with the hot tub, which was completely secluded and not overlooked at all. It made for such a relaxing experience, especially after a day out exploring. The private entrance was also a great touch, giving us an added sense of independence during our stay. Faye, the owner, was fantastic kind, attentive, and welcoming from the start. She struck the perfect balance of being available if needed while never being intrusive, which we really appreciated. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a relaxing, high-quality getaway in North Wales. We would absolutely love to return in the future. Hide
