This environmentally friendly, bespoke, luxury beach house is situated on the Glamorgan Heritage Coastal Path and promises a memorable stay for any family or group of friends looking to get away and spend quality time together. Sandy beaches, estuaries, rock pools and historic ruins are just some of the fantastic backdrops to this property’s surroundings, where everyone can enjoy getting outdoors come rain or shine. Wildlife is plentiful along the estuary and the sandy beaches are popular with bathers, surfers and fishermen. Enjoy a pony trek along the dunes or over the golf course, all of which are within walking distance or a short car drive to visit. A variety of eateries and a local convenience store on your doorstep means you really do have everything to create a relaxing holiday filled with adventures and memories to treasure.

You’ll be greeted by an inviting, modern and elegant façade as you arrive. Step through the front door and the wow factors keep coming. The entrance hall provides plenty of storage space to hang all your coats and store shoes, and a convenient downstairs WC is located just off this area. The utility room with a sink adjacent to this, is a handy place to take all your wet beach things for cleaning and drying. Now as you step through into the heart of this property you will be struck by the amazing design that offers unforgettable sea views and a fantastic open-plan space for socialising. The open plan kitchen/diner/living room has a sleek and thoughtful design, offering you the ultimate coastal experience. Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary or fuelling up for a day of adventures, every dining experience will feel like a dream sitting against the large panoramic windows that frame the mesmerising ocean views. Any aspiring chef will feel right at home in this stylish and sleek kitchen with a large central island, ideal for spectators to sit back and watch a master chef at work. Relaxing evenings can be spent in front of the fire watching movies together and playing board games, or simply enjoying the sounds of the ocean through the open doors. Children and parents will appreciate the addition of a downstairs playroom with large TV and plenty of toys to entertain the children. Head up the beautifully crafted glass and oak staircase, complete with flying whale, where every bedroom guarantees a good night’s rest. The two king-size bedrooms at the rear of the property boast unforgettable sea views from the floor-to-ceiling glass doors which open out onto a shared veranda. Each bedroom has a minimalist design, one with a super king-size bed and a beautifully designed en-suite bathroom with shower over bath, WC and plenty of additional storage, the other offers a super king-size zip-and-link bed which can also be made up as two singles. A third king-size bedroom, with a sleek design and storage, is located at the front of the property. The final bedroom sleeps up to 4 guests with 2 single bunks and 2 double bunks and has a large space for children to play and roll around in, that is after they’ve attempted the climbing wall. The family bathroom, with a large double shower and separate bath, completes the interior of this beautiful home.

Outside, the large, decked terrace with lounge furniture provides a wonderful, elevated position to enjoy the ocean scenery. Here you can enjoy some alfresco dining with the BBQ, long soak’s in the hot tub, let the children run around in the enclosed lawned garden and enjoy some unforgettable nights under the stars.
