Absolutely gorgeous little property, everything you would need for a holiday, as it was previously an old laundry there is lots of quirky details as the owners have left the exposed brickwork in places and a little old woodburning stove. Lots of outdoor space in the front for table and chairs etc and the location was great, additional bonus of car parking space right outside.Communication from Lyz was excellent, great directions to the property. Checking we arrived ok and also extremely dog friendly. We had to leave early as our dog was a bit fretful. But had a really great stay, would highly recommend.
Great communications from the host, on site parking....What a lovely hidden gem. 5mins from the beach, 5mins from town. A lovely private courtyard complete with table chairs and sun loungers await.inside the hosts really have thought of everything and made the most of the space. Even down to dog poo bags in the drawers, and crisps on the side. I didn't want to leave,such a relaxing place. seriously it's been amazing. Thankyou!!

Why they chose this property
And here are 10 reasons why visitors think PRESTATYN is the perfect destination for a couples or solo stay in North Wales! Prestatyn is a traditional seaside and spa town located in the beautiful Vale of Clwyd, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Situated at the beginning (or end!) of the famous Offa’s Dyke Path and on the Wales Coast Path, Prestatyn offers the best of both worlds — wide sandy beaches, dunes and stunning sunsets, alongside countryside and hillside walks. The beach area features crazy golf, a leisure centre, children’s play areas, arcades, and beachfront cafés and restaurants. The town boasts a modern retail park and a bustling high street with a wide range of independent and well-known shops, cafés, pubs, restaurants, takeaways, and a cinema — many of them dog friendly. Some of Wales’ most famous castles are within easy reach, including Rhuddlan, Conwy, and Caernarfon Castles, as well as nearby Gwrych Castle in Abergele — known as the Welsh home of ITV’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! The elegant Victorian seaside town of Llandudno and the Great Orme, famous for its resident goats, are around 45 minutes away, while the historic city of Chester is a similar distance in the opposite direction. The popular Welsh Mountain Zoo in Colwyn Bay is only around 30 minutes away. Anglesey Sea Zoo and Pili Palas Nature World are just across the Menai Strait on the beautiful Isle of Anglesey. Llanberis and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) in Eryri National Park (Snowdonia) are less than an hour away. Adventure lovers can enjoy Zip World’s famous attractions — including zip lines, the Fforest Coaster, Quarry Karts, and Bounce Below — across the Snowdonia locations of Bethesda, Betws-y-Coed, and Blaenau Ffestiniog.
