This charming property, situated in a quiet seaside town between Conwy and Llanfairfechan, is perfect for small families or groups of friends looking for a base to explore coast and country. Sleeping four guests over two tranquil bedrooms and with space for up to two dogs to join you, this cosy cottage is the ideal place for recharging your batteries after a long day out exploring. Head off to Surf Snowdonia (11 miles) for a surfing lesson, or get lost in Beaumaris Castle (19 miles).

Bursting with original features, this period property welcomes you in via a hall and handy bench to take off your boots and hang your coats. The open-plan living area centres around a gorgeous inglenook fireplace with a wood burner, surrounded by peaceful neutral tones and vintage-style furniture. During the day, throw open the double doors to the upper terrace; enjoy your morning cup of tea sitting here, catching glimpses of the sea. Walk down the steps to the courtyard and you’ll find the utility room with a washing machine and plenty of storage. Back inside, cook up tasty meals in the contemporary kitchen and dine at the table, planning tomorrow’s adventures as you eat. Upstairs, a bright and airy bathroom invites you in for a bath or shower before you head to bed. Enjoy garden views from the double bedroom or sea views from the super-king-size zip-and-link that can be made up as twin beds on request.

Spend the day at Penmaenmawr Beach (0.5 miles), enjoying the views towards Puffin Island, or book a boat trip to the island from Beaumaris Pier (19 miles). Make sure you visit the World Heritage Site of Conwy Castle (4 miles) and explore the pretty town and castle, or spend the day in Llandudno (9 miles) which is home to Wales’ longest pier.
