  • Quintessential three-storey cottage for families at the heart of beautiful Aberdovey, just a stone’s throw from the beach
  • Enjoy cooking in the bright kitchen with its roof windows
  • Cosy around the electric coal-effect fire at the hub of the house for chilly evenings
Property code: DY027

Escape to the coastal borders of Snowdonia National Park with friends or family and stay at this charming cottage in Aberdovey, where the cosy lounge area awaits your return after a day of discovery, and a beach can be found opposite your front door.

Inside the cottage, you'll find a compact yet stylish retreat, finished with subtle nautical touches that add to its seaside charm. As you step through the stable-style door, you'll be greeted by an inviting open-plan kitchen/diner, complete with deep sofas, snug armchairs, and an electric coal-effect fire, perfect for evenings in. The well-equipped kitchen boasts everything you need to ensure that meal preparation is a breeze. Ascend the steep stairs to discover the comfortable bedrooms, each offering a peaceful haven for a restful night's sleep. The first bedroom features a double bed, finished with light and airy decor. Along from here, you’ll find the bathroom with a shower over the bath. The remaining bedrooms are at the top of another steep flight of stairs—a snug single room with simple hanging space and a double bedroom with built-in storage. While there may not be a dedicated outdoor space, a small bench outside the front door provides a tranquil spot to enjoy your morning coffee and soak in the atmosphere of this charming coastal village.

Stroll down to the bustling harbour and immerse yourself in the maritime atmosphere, or try your hand at water sports such as sailing, paddleboarding and windsurfing. Alternatively, go crabbing off the jetty or simply relax on the glorious sandy beach, perfect for building sandcastles and soaking up the sun. When you're ready for adventure, explore the diverse landscapes of Snowdonia National Park or the rugged stretches of the Ceredigion Coastline, where scenic walks await along mountain ranges and coastal paths. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy the nearby 18-hole championship golf course, less than a mile from home.

We had a wonderful stay at Rockpool Cottage, which we found very comfortable and cosy. It's in a great position just off the village square and only a few minutes walk to the beach. There were some thoughtful touches like soft blankets for the sitting room, which we took full advantage of when snuggling up with a movie in the windy weather! We all Read moreloved our bedrooms, my son especially liked his little room in the eaves. We would definitely stay here again! Hide
