The Penthouse NY Loft Apartment
✨ The Penthouse – New York Loft Living by the Sea
Welcome to The Penthouse — a bold, New York loft-style hideaway set right in the heart of Barmouth. Designed for adults who appreciate style, comfort, and a touch of the unexpected, this unique apartment delivers effortless bohemian cool with a coastal twist.
With a spacious lounge, fully equipped kitchen, generous bathroom, and a dramatic loft bedroom tucked into the eaves, The Penthouse is all about open space, character, and atmosphere. Think quirky architectural details, curated artwork, and laid-back loft living — all just moments from the sea.
The apartment sits above Eva Amour, an adult boutique on Barmouth’s High Street. As such, this is a strictly adults-only retreat (18+).
🏙️ The Space
Accessed via a shared entrance on the High Street, The Penthouse occupies the second and third floors of a traditional stone building — with the entire upper apartment exclusively yours.
🛋️ Living & Dining
The large open-plan lounge is flooded with light from a stunning panoramic bay window, offering beautiful views of:
Barmouth beach and sea
The surrounding mountains
The Dragon Theatre
Christ Church
The bustling High Street below
Sink into the tub chairs with a drink, unwind on the comfy sofa in front of the TV, or transform the lounge into a second sleeping space using the cosy king-size sofa bed once the sun goes down.
🛁 Bathroom & WC
The spacious bathroom has a contemporary, on-trend feel and features:
Full-size bathtub
Separate hydro-massage shower cabin
Modern basin and stylish finishes
Mood lighting with remote control
Opposite, you’ll find a separate WC with sleek fittings for added convenience.
🍳 Kitchen
The generously sized kitchen is fully equipped for relaxed holiday living:
Cooker & oven
Fridge freezer
Dishwasher
Microwave, kettle & toaster
Sink with drainer and cookware
A laundrette is conveniently located nearby.
🪜 Loft Bedroom
Climb the ladder stairs and pass through a quirky landing into the show-stopping loft bedroom, which spans the full footprint of the apartment.
Here you’ll find:
A comfortable king-size bed
Open wardrobe and dressing table
Illuminated mirror with wireless phone charging
A snug chill-out corner with beanbags — perfect for reading, gaming, or lingering late-night conversations
Enjoy sea and beach views from the front window, plus a stunning side view of St John’s Church and Dinas Oleu through the side Velux window.
🔊 Smart Comfort
Alexa-enabled Echo Dots in both the living room and bedroom let you:
Play music
Get local information
Set the mood
Try your luck with games
Just say, “Alexa…”
🖤 Why You’ll Love It
The Penthouse is unapologetically different — stylish, quirky, grown-up, and memorable. With its New York loft vibe, dramatic views, and central location, it’s a space designed for couples or friends looking for something a little more daring than the ordinary seaside stay.
⚠️ Important Notes
Adults only (18+) — no children permitted
Not suitable for guests with mobility issues
Two sets of stairs plus steep ladder stairs to the bedroom

About the host
Hosted by Dave Powley
We’re proud to be local hosts in Barmouth, and we absolutely love sharing this special corner of the coast with visitors.
When we're not working, you’ll usually find us enjoying everything the area has to offer — long beach walks, exploring the mountains, discovering great local cafés, and making the most of the relaxed seaside lifestyle.
We enjoy being hosts because it gives us the chance to help guests create happy memories here, whether that’s a fun family holiday, a peaceful coastal escape, or an adventure-filled break. We take pride in making sure every stay feels welcoming, comfortable, and just a little bit special.

Why they chose this property
We chose Barmouth because it truly offers the best of both worlds — a classic seaside atmosphere paired with some of the most beautiful natural scenery in Wales.
The town has a wonderfully relaxed, friendly feel, with colourful houses climbing the hillside, independent shops and cafés, and a long stretch of golden sandy beach that seems to go on forever. One of the most special things about the area is how quickly the scenery changes — you can start the day with a peaceful walk along the shoreline and end it watching the sunset over the mountains of Eryri National Park.
What we enjoy most is the sense of space and natural beauty here. There’s always something to do — from coastal walks and scenic hikes to simply sitting with a coffee and listening to the waves. It’s the kind of place where people naturally slow down, breathe a little deeper, and really enjoy their time away.

What makes this property unique
What truly makes The Penthouse unique is its one-of-a-kind personality — it’s not just a place to stay, it’s an experience.
Set high above the High Street in Barmouth, the apartment combines an unexpected New York loft style with classic seaside surroundings. The dramatic eaves bedroom, quirky ladder access, bold artwork, and bohemian touches create a space that feels creative, stylish, and completely different from typical coastal accommodation.
Another standout feature is the panoramic bay window in the lounge, where guests can relax with a drink while enjoying sweeping views of the sea, mountains, and the lively town below — a perspective very few properties in Barmouth can offer.
Its location above the boutique Eva Amour also adds a playful, adults-only edge, making it especially appealing for couples or friends looking for something a little more fun, unique, and memorable.
Overall, it’s the combination of loft-style design, quirky character, incredible views, and a central yet private setting that makes The Penthouse stand out from the rest.
