Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

A comfortable modest 3-bedroom bungalow in the midst of a pristine estate of homes, situated on the side of a hill, with easy care gardens and two water features. Above us are Gopa Woods with the site of an Iron Age hillfort, and below us distant views of the sea with its wind turbines and distant oil rigs. There is a lounge with comfortable seating, a dining area in the conservatory, fully fitted kitchen with breakfast bar, two double bedrooms (one with en suite shower room), single bedroom/office, and full bathroom with bath and shower. There are two TVs (49" Smart TV in the lounge with Sky Q satellite TV and Freeview, plus one smaller TV in the kitchen with Sky Q and Freeview), DVD player with many DVDs available to watch, and two desktop computers with wi-fi.

We are 5 minutes walk from the entrance to Gwrych Castle where I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here was filmed in 2020, and 5 minutes drive to the sea front and North Wales Coastal Path. Close by is Snowdonia National Park, numerous beaches, walks, cycle tracks, woods, many towns & villages, watersports centre, etc.

Our home has easy access to the A55, and is ideally placed for visiting North, West and Mid-Wales, e.g. Snowdonia National Park, the Llyn Peninsula, the island of Anglesey, mountains, beaches, sea, ancient castles, historic houses and parks, designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Sites of Special Scientific Interest.

Also convenient for the English/Welsh Borderlands with its historic cities (e.g. Chester -45 minutes, and Shrewsbury), King Offa's Dyke, etc., and North and Central England with its beautiful countryside, historic houses & parks, etc.

There is a ferry service to Southern Ireland from Holyhead, Anglesey to Dublin and Dun Laoghaire, and an air service from Anglesey Airport to Cardiff, South Wales. Both are reasonably priced.

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

It is a short walk downhill to the town of Abergele, where there are restaurants, cafes, pharmacy, shops and a supermarket. The Wales Coastal Path and North Wales Coastal Cycleway pass along the sea front at Pensarn/Abergele, continuing many miles in both directions. We are near the A55, which is a dual carriageway running along the north coast of Wales from Chester to Holyhead, Anglesey. It enables you to access different areas and attractions very quickly should you wish to, or you can travel on more rural roads taking in more sights at leisure if you prefer. We are ideally placed for visiting North, West and Mid-Wales, e.g. Snowdonia National Park, the Llyn Peninsula, the island of Anglesey, mountains, beaches, sea, walks, cycle tracks, watersports centre, many towns and villages, ancient castles, historic houses and parks, designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Sites of Special Scientific Interest.

Also convenient for the English/Welsh Borderlands with its historic cities King Offa's Dyke, and North and Central England with its beautiful countryside, historic houses and parks.

Ferries run regularly from Holyhead, Anglesey to Dublin, the Capital of the Republic of Ireland. You can also fly from Anglesey Airport to Cardiff making use of their regular timetable.
