The well-equipped kitchen, fitted with an electric oven and hob, American-style fridge / freezer and air fryer, flows into a bright dining space where the whole party can gather around the table to plan the day ahead. Switch on the Smart TV for background music while you cook, then relax in the adjoining lounge, where comfortable sofas and a wood burner create a cosy retreat on cooler evenings.
Step outside to the enclosed rear garden, where established shrubs, a neat lawn and a paved patio with table and chairs set the scene for al fresco dining, while the bubbling hot tub invites you to unwind beneath the stars. Four comfortable double bedrooms (one with its own en-suite shower) provide restful accommodation for the whole group, two on the ground floor and two tucked beneath the eaves upstairs, along with a stylish bathroom boasting a free-standing roll-top bath. A garage utility area offers space for bikes and muddy boots, and private parking for four cars completes this practical, pet-friendly home.
Picture mornings spent wandering down to Llanbedrog's colourful beach huts, paddling in the shallows before browsing the art gallery at Plas Glan y Weddw. Afternoons might mean a stroll along the coastal path towards Abersoch, keeping an eye out for dolphins and seals, before returning home to soak away the day in the hot tub. As dusk falls, gather around the wood burner, the scent of a gas-fired barbecue still lingering in the garden air.
