Overview
Property code: OC-93932

Ideal for those enchanted by the beauty of coastal nature, this wonderful home seamlessly blends rustic charm with impeccably designed interiors to create the perfect retreat for a group gathering by the sea. With far-reaching views, unique design and a wrap-around private garden, enjoy a memorable escape with loved ones to this spectacular region.

A wooden-panelled foyer leads to panoramic views, while the coastal-themed kitchen/diner steals the show with its vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and sliding glass doors. Adjacent, a cosy snug invites you to unwind by the fireplace, with views that frame the vast seascape and plush sofas beckon you to relax. Another inviting reception room awaits, with wooden shelves filled with games, guidebooks, and seashells. A small study area between the ground-floor bedrooms provides a convenient spot for quiet moments. The ground floor also features a king-size zip-and-link bedroom with a touch of vintage charm, alongside a neighbouring super-king-size room that opens onto a patio. Both share a stylish shower room.

In the opposite wing, discover an en-suite super-king-size room with a large picture window framing Atlantic vistas. Relax in the roll-top bath across the landing, then retire to bed to the soothing sound of the sea. At the end of the day, enjoy a sunset BBQ by the shore and take in the coastal ambience from the comfort of the garden furniture.

The property's garden leads straight to the pristine shores of Borthwen Beach.

Our second visit to Plas Esgob and absolutely as lovely as before - we rarely revisit locations, preferring to explore new areas but this place is so special. Highly recommended 5

This property is in a wonderful location, at the end of a series of narrow lanes - What3words took us directly to the house, invaluable, There is plenty of room and if, as we did, some want to spend time pursuing a hobby ( ie sewing or art work) there is space to do so and the natural light is good. Bedding and towels very good and lots of bowls, pRead morelates, glasses and cutlery etc. The weather turned much colder while we were staying and the house stayed beautifully warm. We even had snow!

The house is set in the most beautiful location. Just stones throw to the beach. The garden is very safe for dogs as it is fenced off all round.

Lovely location with steps down to the beach. Toddler with us enjoyed watching the baby rabbits. Some mild oddities but you can forgive a lot for that view every morning.

Loved every minute of our stay at Plas Esgob. The house is beautiful - thoughtfully and cleverly decorated, it is homely and comfortable with lots of quirky vintage touches but also plenty of mod cons. Fabulous location, secluded and peaceful with lovely views over the bay and mountains and excellent coast path walks in both directions. The garden Read morearea is exceptionally well fenced, essential for us (terriers!) with your own private gate for access onto the beach. Short walk to the excellent pub! Hide

Had a brilliant time. It was good being so close to the beach. The dogs loved being able to chase about in the garden. Fantastic views from the spacious and extremely comfortable cottage. Everything we needed was available in the cottage. Not far to a great pub and shops to stock up.

This is a unique property, in a unique location. A beautiful and wild spot on the Rhoscolyn coastline, looking out to the headland. A wonderful week, even when weather was wild. Stunning views, & quirky, interesting interiors, filled with art & artefacts. Lovely & warm, even when cold outside. Didn't need the log burner, even in Dec.

The location is fabulous. Stayed here before the kitchen was moved; loved it before, love it still. We didn't travel far; hired kayaks and walked the coastal path, watched the jets, walked to the pub. Plenty to see and do if you want to get in the car, but plenty to do if you don't.

This house is amazing. It's location, level of comfort and the wonderful, almost gallery like quality of the displays around the house make it truly memorable. We had a holiday to remember for several reasons, and the house certainly contributed to that.
