Can't fault anything. The house is spacious and so close to the beach, just through a gate in back garden and only a few minutes walk to the beach. The beds are so comfy. A wonderful welcome hamper on arrival. We had another great holiday

The house is spacious, the beds and rooms are comfortable and the location is amazing. Walk out the garden through the gate, 2 mins and you're on a beautiful beach. Excellent for evening kite flying and sunsets. We didn't have amazing weather unfortunately, but i'd imagine if you had a sunny week, you'd be on there all the time. The location of the house is great for day trips to pretty much anywhere in North Wales. Prestatyn town is small and quaint. Highly recommend Tu Mundo for breakfast, lunch and delicious cake.
