“We had a great week at Castle Cove the bungalow is clean and tidy.”

Sofa and beds are comfy, garden is nice to sit out when the sun is shining. Quiet location with plenty of areas to walk your dog. There are books and DVD's if you don't want to go out. Good Beaches at Prestatyn, Colwyn Bay and Rhos on Sea. Can recommend the George and Dragon and the Abergele fish bar.

“The settee was uncomfortable to watch TV or get up from, you sank into the upright back support cushion and even though the seat position had been reinforced you still sank down.”

- Anthony, August 2022

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear you didn't find the settee comfortable. We will review with a view to replacing it in the closed season. Property Owner
Sally July 2022

“Had a great stay at Castle Cove.”

Location is fantastic. Easy for beach, town/shops & other resorts along the Welsh North Coast. Lovely area for dog walking. The property was very comfortable. Loads of interior space. No freezer though, just under counter fridge (not even a freezer box at the top) Wasn't a major issue for us but as we were lucky enough to have hot weather it would have enhanced our stay. Good size back garden to sit out in, peg out any washing & for your dog to roam. (Very secure) Overall a great place to stay. We wouldn't hesitate to return or recommend.

- Sally, July 2022
Paul June 2022

“Lovely bungalow nice and peaceful good base for exploring Wales”

- Paul, June 2022
Kathryn June 2022

“We had a very comfortable week at Castle Cove.”

The location is perfect for exploring North Wales as it is close to the A55. It is a short walk to a large Tesco store and the Hight Street with its pubs and take-aways. The bungalow has everything you would expect with off street parking and was perfect for us and our dog. The property is in a very quiet residential area with no through traffic. The back garden is sheltered and I managed to have my breakfast outside on a couple of mornings. We would certainly return if we visited the area again.

- Kathryn, June 2022
Julie May 2022

“We had a wonderful stay at Castle Cove.”

Barbara May 2022

“We felt very much at home at Castle Cove.”

It is located in an exceptionally quiet location near to the town centre. It is ideal for 'walkies' as there are snickets and small wooded areas close by. We were also able to walk to Pensarn Beach, Pentre Mawr Park and Gwrych Castle. We were blessed with good weather all week so the suntrap (and enclosed) garden was an added bonus. The owners were friendly and approachable.

- Barbara, May 2022
Philip May 2022

“The property was as listed, a comfortable 2 bed dwelling within easy reach of most amenities.”

The thoughtfulness of the owners to provide things such as cling film, foil etc and a very much enjoyed pack of dog treats for our little Casper was greatly appreciated. The beds and bedding was comfortable too. If there was one thing that we would have to comment negatively about, it would be the very comfortable looking sofas. Unfortunately they were very hard to get up from once we had sat in them. This did spoil the relaxation part of our holiday, as we had to sit mainly on the dining chairs from the kitchen. We had noted that this seemed to be a recurring theme in several of the comments left both online and in the visitor book, in the property. We were very pleased that the garden was as advertised, totally dog safe, so we could let our dog roam around without any worries. It was an all round lovely few days away. Thank you to the owners from Phil and Yvonne.

- Philip, May 2022
Beverley April 2022

“This property was absolutely wonderful, every little touch added to make us feel welcome and at home.”

From the greeting of a bunch of flowers, to providing all those little touches including books for us to read. The property was spotless and was an ideal base for North Wales. The property is on a small estate consisting of bungalows and the people are really really friendly. I felt so at home at the property from day one, I would happily have stayed there forever. It is a little gem and I totally recommend staying at this lovely property.

- Beverley, April 2022
Katherine December 2021

“We enjoyed our Christmas break in this lovely, comfortable, clean and warm property a special thankyou to the owners for the Christmas welcome pack including treats for our little dog, hopefully we will be going again.”

- Katherine, December 2021
John October 2021

“Hi we found the cottage extremely clean and welcoming.”

The description of the property was spot on. The cottage is well situated being in a very quiet area but also close enough for accessing all that north Wales has to offer, If there was one thing I would change would be the seating in the living room as they are very low and you tend to sink into the ends. This is by no way a criticism but a consideration of the older people. The beds were fantastic and we all slept well! I would definitely book this property again.

- John, October 2021
Erica September 2021

“Nice comfortable clean bungalow nice quite too enjoyed our stay and would stay again”

- Erica, September 2021
Miranda September 2021

“The cottage was well situated for travelling around the area.”

It contained all that you would need while away from home. We kept finding more and more items every day. The garden was safe and enclosed for our dog. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

- Miranda, September 2021
Dorothy August 2021

“The bungalow was just as described.”

Clean and tidy, well provided with kitchen equipment, comfortable beds and ideally placed to explore north Wales. The only issue was that the sofa cushions did not support us at a height that enabled us to stand up again without a struggle.

- Dorothy, August 2021
Fiona July 2021

“The bungalow is in a good location in as far as exploring North Wales, if you are prepared to drive.”

From opening the door on the first day to locking was a trouble free time. The bungalow is basic in some aspects, however, some aspects are above basic. We found the sofa’s were a little too welcoming, the double bed was very comfortable, pillows were amazing. The Fushia bush at the front door was really welcoming. Neighbours are also very friendly and are willing to assist with any local knowledge wanted. But most of all it’s a wonderful place to recharge, reboot and relax.

- Fiona, July 2021

Ebin May 2021

“Had a lovely stay.”

The neighbourhood is excellent and proximity to the beach is good. Local shops and other amenities are conveniently accessible, great options for food! A small table fan would have been nice to have for the very hot days, although not a must have! Overall a pleasant experience

- Ebin, May 2021
Jane May 2021

“We loved our stay at Castle Cove, the bungalow was so clean and welcoming, definitely a home from home feel, shame no freezer area in fridge for ice to enjoy a G&T in the garden.”

A 5 min walk to the town of Abergele which has great pubs serving delicious food as well as a large Tesco, Looking forward to our next stay to visit family and friends.

The property

The perfect abode for those seeking a coastal escape, Castle Cove is a beautiful bungalow from which to spend quality time with friends and family while exploring the wonders of Wales.

A whitewashed, semi-detached property, offering all the home comforts needed for a relaxing retreat, this cottage is one you'll want to return to.

Entering through the side of the property and into the contemporary-styled kitchen/diner, a well-equipped room with sleek cream units and wooden worktops hosting wonderful appliances such as an electric oven and gas hob, microwave, and fridge, sure to assist you in preparing a home-cooked treat, as well as a convenient washing machine, the wonderful assistant after a day of rambling.

Once you've enjoyed time together around the dining table, carry your conversations through to the sitting room and unwind on the stylish sofas, with the gas fire bringing a warmth to the room in the summer months, it's the perfect place to get lost in a good book.

Before bed, head into the shower room to wash away the day with a warming shower, before choosing from either the double or twin bedrooms, both offering a homely setting and plenty of space for your personal belongings.

Outside the cottage is an enclosed lawn area where your canine companion can enjoy running around freely whilst you dine alfresco with a full English breakfast on the patio area.

Sitting at the centre of Abergele, the property benefits from an array of amenities within walking distance, with glimpses of Gwrych Castle seen from the front door, it's well-worth a walk to see it up close in all its glory, before heading to Manorafon Farm Park for a day of family fun and friendly animals.

Also in the town are a range of leisure facilities including golf, a skate park and a beautiful beach where you can try a new watersport or simply soak in the sun.

Head into the nearby town of Llandudno where you can visit the fantastic pier and take the tramway up the Great Orme, or venture further to the town of Conwy with its well-preserved town walls, medieval castle and Britain’s smallest house.

With so much excitement on its doorstep, Castle Cove is the perfect place to call home whilst holidaying on the coast of Wales.
