About this property

Contemporary House, distant sea views and lovely sunsets.

We built this house ourselves and chose this area as we love what it has to offer and may even consider moving there in the future. The house is furnished as we wanted it and so consequently is home from home for us if we visit. You will find it very well equipped and above all, a relaxing and calm environment.

The property itself benefits from underfloor heating throughout the 3 floors, with triple glazed bi-fold doors in the living area allowing for lots of natural light. These doors open fully onto a decked balcony on which you can sit and take in the fantastic sea views towards Shell Island and the Llyn Peninsula. We do get some amazing sunsets here and the balcony is a perfect spot to enjoy them with a drink in the early evening.
There are 3 bedrooms on the top floor, two doubles and one twin. One of the twin beds does also have a single trundel bed underneath, which allows 3 people to occupy this room if needed. There is a family bathroom with bath, corner shower, basin, heated towel radiator and wc. The master bedroom has it's own ensuite shower room, also with basin and w/c.
The main living floor of the property is made up of an open plan L-shaped kitchen/diner and lounge area, with a separate study room and wc. There is a tv and comfy double corner sofa bed in the study which provides a quiet room for anyone wanting to have a little peace and quiet away from the main living area. A large corner sofa and a 2 seater sofa in the lounge offer plenty of seating.
The modern white gloss fitted kitchen is well equipped with dishwasher, induction hob, double oven, fridge freezer and integrated microwave. The dining table seats 6 people and can be extended if need be for more room. There is also a breakfast bar/work station with 2 high stools.
On the lower ground floor there is a utility room with washing machine, tumble drier, plus another tv room/snug and a wc. The boiler room offers a warm space to hang coats up to dry.
Prices are all based on 6 people occupancy. If you want to have a 3rd
bed made up in the twin room, or use the sofa bed in the study, there is a £30 charge per guest per night. Although the property accommodates a larger group please note that parties and/or additional visitors to the property over and above those authorised to stay in the Booking are strictly not permitted without prior agreement.
Outside there is seating area, gardens and ample off road parking for several cars. We also own the parking space at the front of the property, just off the main road.
The house has only been built for a few years and new carpets were laid in the bedrooms in the spring of 2021.
The property is no smoking throughout and on the balcony area. We are not set up for very young children, so only bookings for parties with older children will be accepted. Please do not try and book if you have children under 8 years old, as your booking will not be valid and you will lose your deposits if the booking is consequently cancelled less than 40 days before the date of your stay.
There is an integral garage that will remain locked and out of use as we store our own personal belongings in there, however if you have bikes that you would like to put in there, we can arrange that.
Sorry, no stag or 18/21 parties. Please provide info about your group when making a booking inquiry as this is required before a quote can be sent.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I built Pen y banc ourselves after being the winning bidders in an online property auction for the piece of land it sits on in 2014 . We absolutely love the area and try to spend as much time there as we can. The introduction of the council tax premium on second homes there has encouraged us to start renting it out to guests, other than just our friends and family. This is the reason why we don't have any reviews yet. The lockdown has meant that we haven't quite finished some of the landscaping, but hopefully this year will see all of that done.
