  • A charming cottage-style house in leafy surroundings, close to golden beaches in pretty Saundersfoot
  • Light and airy interior, with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams in the open-plan living room
  • Delightful, enclosed patio with built-in table and benches, perfect for outdoor dining

Property code: OC-PW9195

This beautifully presented bolthole is ideal for a small family or two couples to share. Just 100 metres from the pretty Glen Beach, it boasts two beautiful en-suite bedrooms, lush outdoor seating areas and a contemporary open-plan living space full of high-end features.

Just west of Saundersfoot Harbour, The Glen is a leafy residential area with a lovely range of upmarket properties – among them, this gorgeous holiday home which offers the perfect setting for a grown-up getaway. Contemporary styling complements the exposed beams and other traditional features within the well-dressed open-plan living space here; stretch out on comfortable sofas, chat over coffee at the breakfast bar and cook up a feast in the light-filled kitchen area. A wood burner keeps this sociable space cosy and warm on chilly days. Two dreamy bedrooms offer sanctuary-like contrast. The first, on the ground floor, has a king-size bed and wet room with walk-in shower, while on the first floor there’s a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room. Each bedroom has its own TV so you can snuggle up with a late-night movie or catch the morning’s news before you begin your day. The living space is extended here by some pretty outdoor seating areas where you can unwind, drink and dine amongst trees and plants.

Just 100 metres from your doorstep, east-facing Glen Beach connects at low tide with the main sands of Saundersfoot, providing an off-road walk to the village centre via the harbour. Leisure yachts bob on their moorings within the harbour – if you fancy getting on the water yourself, you could take a boat trip from here to try your hand at sea fishing or to see some of the marine mammals that thrive along this coastline. If you’d prefer to explore on foot, head 3.5 miles west along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and you’ll reach iconic Tenby. The town is brimming with independent boutiques, shops and eateries to reward your efforts!

The property was as stated and to a good standard. Great location to the local beach, although it should be noted that the property is at the top of a hill and steps are involved to access the beach, or a walk up/down a hill Ito access the local resort of Saundersfoot by road.
