The property sits high up in the stunningly beautiful Snowdonia National Park. The Sea Shack is built from Scandinavian cedar and the interior painted to emulate a Hamptons beach house. Every window overlooks sea or the stunning mountains of Wales. Relax on the raised south facing deck with a glass of wine soaking up the scenery. All this and only a ten minute walk to the picturesque village of Aberdovey.
I live in Shropshire with my husband, Jon and our two children, Sophie and Oliver in a barn conversion.
My children are growing up and I now have an opportunity to work for myself but still be available for my family.
A little note to my regular holiday makers. I have now changed the email address to my husband as he has now taken over the running of the Sea Shack. I still have the same contact details but I have other commitments for now so he will be in charge!
I have enjoyed converting above the garage and our cabin in Aberdovey (The Seashack).
I hope you enjoy your stay either in Shropshire or Aberdovey.
The Owner purchased this chalet in 2011
Jon and I wanted a bolt hole not too far away from home so that we could use it for holidays but also to get away at weekends with our family or friends. We all love Aberdovey as there is always something to do.
The reason I love it so much is that you instantly relax as soon as you drive into Aberdovey. It is such a pretty village with lovely shops and places to eat. Seabreeze is my favourite and the Deli does great lunches and coffee. Kids love the Sweet Shop (homemade ice cream).
I love the Sea Shack as you enjoy the vibrant village life and beautiful beaches and then you can escape up the hill and enjoy the peace and views. The children have the freedom to roam around the park and make friends. Jon and I can read a book, listen to music and relax. No more needs to be said!
My wife and I came to The Sea Shack for a couple of nights just to get away from all the hustle and bustle of every day work life. Although we didn't get the weather, we truly enjoyed our stay at this charming location which boasts amazing sea views. We spent as much time as possible on the veranda enjoying the scenery and relaxing. We will most certainly be staying again and also recommending to all our couple friends who want to get away for a relaxing weekend away from it all. Also, the communication with the property owner was brilliant, making sure we had clear directions and instructions on using the facilities, etc prior to our visit. Fantastic.
Cozy, welcoming, amazing location. Weather helped, being the hottest days of the year so far. Only drawback was we couldn't stay longer. Will be coming again.
Went with husband and daughter for may half term for a week and absolutely loved it!! Its a lovely place to stay, lovely little town by the sea and even more lovely views! Plenty to do in the area; we went crabbing, bodyboarding, biking and did lots of walking.
Sonia was helpful throughout the booking process and I have already recommended it to a couple of my friends.
Lovely views from the lodge, a great sun trap sitting on the decking. A tidy, clean stylish lodge just up the hill from Aberdovey village. Wonderful location, great beaches and walks, a perfect break away for families or couples.
Set in a stunning location (breath taking views of the Dyfi estuary and coast line), the Sea Shack was our home from home. Comfortable cosy, & well appointed we loved nothing more than to return to our chalet after a spending a day on one of the lovely local beaches (the crabbing in Aberdovey proved most fruitful!) or walking in the glorious Gwynedd countryside. We'd highly recommend the Sea Shack but you may have to compete with us for a stay because we'll definitely be back.
Special interest holidays:
There cannot be too many hobbies or interests that aren't catered for in and around Aberdovey. Wonderful sandy beaches, sailing, windsurfing, kite surfing, crabbing off the jetty, pony trekking, cookery school, steam train, cinema, cycling tracks, easy access to Snowdonia hills and waterfalls. RSPB reserve where Spring Watch is filmed.
Coast/Beach:
Beach is a 10 minute walk down hill but slightly harder coming back! Easier to go by car. Lovely walks around the circumference of the park or into Snowdonia National Park. There is also a lovely cycle track about half an hour drive which is great for children as you don't have to worry about cars. Go Ape is approximately 45 minute journey by car.
Travel:
Travelling by car from Twyn proceed into the village and take the first turning left into Copperhill Street (just before the Dovey Inn). Drive towards Fat Face Shop and turn right up Myndd Isaf. First left , keep going up hill, across two cattle grids, you will see Bwlch Gwyn in front of you. Once in park follow the road to the far end and The Sea Shack is on your right. (No 8 ).

Twyn is approximately 3 miles from Aberdovey which has a very quaint cinema, shops, banks, Spa, Co-Op and a swimming pool. Machynelleth is approximately 10 miles away and has lovely shops, pizzeria, coffee shops, swimming pool with slide.
