Awelfryn is a spacious four-bedroom holiday home in Criccieth, North Wales with stunning sea views across Cardigan Bay. This large property sits just minutes from the beach and castle, making it perfect for families wanting to explore this gorgeous coastal town. The house features modern amenities throughout and enough space for seven guests to spread out comfortably.
The location is brilliant. You're only a 5-minute stroll from Criccieth's sandy beach where the kids can build sandcastles while you pretend to help (but actually read your book). Dog owners will love the pet-friendly beaches right on your doorstep.
