Wales holiday house

The house has been owned by our family since the 1930s and much loved by four generations. Recently renovated to a high standard, it now has central heating, double-glazing, and brand new fully fitted kitchens and bathrooms. The house is still full of old family furniture, pictures and antique ornaments, including pieces collected around the world by Dr Hewlett Johnson, the ‘Red’ Dean of Canterbury, who originally bought the house. Leaving the house, down a steep zigzag path, the sea can be reached in 5 minutes. It is ideal for children, with rock pools, dunes, and an enormous sandy beach. It is a great swimming beach, in our experience safe even in storms when the waves are really big. Behind the house on foot, you are soon in the hills where there are a host of beautiful and isolated spots for walking and swimming, and the mountain range of the Rhinogs where ravens and falcons fly and herds of wild goats can still be seen.

Robert Graves said of this area, “I know of no country like it”. By car, all within an hour or less, you can find historic monuments, castles, and religious sites, visit the art village Portmeirion, ride the famous narrow-gauge Ffestiniog Steam Railway, play golf on “one of the world’s finest courses” (Bernard Gallacher - Ryder Cup Captain), go horse-riding or white-water rafting, explore huge slate caverns, go hill walking, mountain or rock climbing, mountain biking, river, lake or sea swimming, kitesurfing or windsurfing.
