About this property
2 Old Coastguard House is a cosy, semi-detached dwelling resting on the coastal seafront, near the town of Beaumaris. Formerly this cottage was built to house the coastguard that served the nearby coastguard station and has far reaching views over the Menai Straits to Snowdonia and to the front of the property to Puffin Island and the iconic Tryn Du lighthouse. This elegantly dressed property is an ideal base for a family break to the Welsh coast. Upon entering the dwelling, you are welcomed to a handy porch area, making the ideal spot for kicking of muddy boots before entering the beach-inspired property. From here, you will enter a well-appointed kitchen/diner, completed with a fresh and neutral colour palette to complement the seaside theme and to provide a delightful area for hosting your family evening meals. Relax within the well-presented sitting room, where you can curl up on the chesterfield sofas, which sit in front of a warming wood burning fire. Moving through to the rear of the property, you will find a charming single bedroom. French doors lead onto the patio and benefit from breath-taking sea views with the Snowdonia mountain range beyond. Upstairs, you will discover an elegantly presented master bedroom, housing a king-size double bed with dual aspect views of both the lighthouse and Menai Straits. Additional bedrooms include a boat inspired bunk room and a cosy twin bedroom, suitable for adults. Completing the first floor is a luxury family bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower, basin and WC, finished with a touch of charm.

For amenities you will find the local shop 3.3 miles away and a selection of pubs can be situated within the centre of Beaumaris town. Whilst staying here at Penmon Point, you can appreciate breath-taking views and some exciting wildlife, including dolphins! Within a 15-minute drive you will reach the famous historic market town of Beaumaris, where you will be able to explore Beaumaris Castle, the Victorian prison Beaumaris Gaol or take a Puffin Island boat trip. 2 Old Coastguard House is a luxury dwelling, competed with delightful finishes to guarantee an unforgettable holiday to the coast.

Views of the sea are lovely from the main bedroom. Great walks from the front door, otherwise others further up the coast.

Peace and tranquility. Just what we needed. Lovely welcome pack. So clean. Really comfy bed and bedding and the view from the bedroom is unrivalled I would say! Binoculars provided aided us to see Puffin Island, the seals coming over by the lighthouse. A lovely spacious garden looking out over the sea. A very short walk to the beach. One of our best weeks away at one of our favourite locations. Would highly recommend.
