For beach walks and beautiful sunsets, this fabulous single storey conversion is the perfect hideaway to spend a relaxing break on the coast of North Wales. Sleeping four, the bright and airy two bedroom holiday beach retreat near Barmouth is a property not to be missed. Bwthyn-Bennar oozes charm and comfort mixing the traditional with modern with an added splash of coastal chic.

Set in grounds alongside two other holiday cottages, a gravel driveway provides access to this property with two steps leading toward the gorgeous sage green front door, opening into the main living space. You'll immediately be struck by the charm of the property with exposed stone walls, whitewashed ceilings featuring the original wooden beams and full height glazing to one wall overlooking the garden space. By day, the living space is bright and airy. Settling down onto the comfy navy blue fabric sofa or arm chair, a TV is located in the corner of the room to catch up on your latest box set. A four seater dining table, with a blue tablecloth of patterned shells, is the perfect spot for breakfast or a lovely evening meal, cooked in the adjacent kitchen.

Speaking of the kitchen, Bwthyn-Bennar has a beautiful contemporary galley kitchen located next to the dining area, accessed via three steps. Sleek navy cupboard units contrast with the white marble effect worktops. A counter to one side includes a sink and worktop space, toaster and kettle while the opposite side includes a ceramic built in hob sitting alongside a built in eye level oven and microwave. It's a great space for the budding chef of the household to rustle up a hearty meal after a long day exploring the stunning surroundings.

A corridor from the kitchen leads through to the cottage's two bedrooms and bathroom. The first bedroom is a wonderful double, featuring a large bed flanked by a white bedside cabinet to one side, wicker table to the other and table lamps. With a dressing table and large white wooden wardrobe, there is plenty of clothes storage space. Room decor such as a throw on the bed and seagull ornaments provide a nod to the seaside location. Whitewashed walls, exposed wooden ceiling beams and an oak effect floor continue the theme from the living areas. The second bedroom, a twin, provides two single beds, along with a dressing table and large wardrobe. Completing the layout, the stunning bathroom sits to the end of the property with a large walk in shower with rain forest head. Marble effect wall and floor tiles match the style of the kitchen worktop, once again providing consistency to this two bedroom holiday beach retreat near Barmouth.

Location

 

The setting of Bwthyn-Bennar is ideal for those who love spending time outdoors and on the beach. Stepping out of the property, a slate patio houses a rattan lounge set, as well as a picnic table on the lawn. The west facing aspect provides the opportunity for one of those epic North Wales sunsets, perfect to enjoy while sipping a drink on the patio. Pure bliss. A ten minute walk along the lane from the two bedroom holiday beach retreat near Barmouth leads to a boardwalk that crosses the magnificent dunes that shelter a stunning sandy beach. Benar Beach is a wonderful spot to while away a balmy summer day, whether it's sunbathing, walking or taking a dip in the crisp clear water. With views across to the hills of the Llyn Peninsula, it sure is an idyllic spot.

Located centrally between Harlech and Barmouth, there's plenty of opportunity to get out and explore. Head north to Harlech and wander among the walls of the thirteenth century Harlech Castle, learning about the history of this medieval masterpiece. The castle provides fabulous views to the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) herself can be seen on a clear day. Be sure to stop in at some of the cute boutique gift shops and cafes the town has to offer. South of Bwthyn-Bennar, the seaside resort of Barmouth has a stunning beach with a beautiful mountain backdrop and the historic Barmouth Bridge, something of a landmark in the region. From the Barmouth area, take a walk along the Mawddach Trail, a walking and cycle path on a disused railway line which follows the Mawddach Estuary inland towards Dolgellau.

Fancy a hike, with less crowds that the main hub of Eryri? Head into the Rhinogydd mountains nearby, where a number of walking routes meander through these hills with something to suit all skill and fitness levels. For keen mountain bikers, Coed-y-Brenin Forest Park is located nearby. A purpose built mountain biking centre, there are trails to suit all levels and it's also a great spot for walkers, with great trails suitable for families and four legged friends. There's something for everyone in this region of North Wales, and the stunning scenery shouldn't be missed.

We had a great stay at Bwthyn-Bennar. A really good location only a few mins from a fantastic beach. The cottage had everything that could be needed, and we appreciated how spacious it was as well as the welcome produce. The owners were very friendly and close by if you have any questions. We would definitely return.

Lovely quiet and peaceful barn conversion, very clean and spacious. Short walk to beach and close to Barmouth. Very nice welcome pack, particularly enjoyed the Welsh cakes and bread. Would definitely stay again.

Absolutely loved this cottage, it was perfect in everyway. Plenty of space & all mod cons, everything was catered for. Lovely & thoughtful food parcel on arrival plus gravy bones for our dog. Must also mention the bed was super comfy which is a big plus for me. Overall a delightful stay, stunning location & lovely owners would definitely recommend.

Lovely cottage, very peaceful and near the beach, is safer to drive to the beach than walk. Everything you need is in the the cottage apart from cereal bowls. Would recommend and hope to return in the future

I wanted to say what a lovely house, in a great location and how much we enjoyed our little break with you. It was clean, safe and in a good quiet rural location. Traditional build, modern layout, tasteful decor. Will definitely be re booking.
