1 Westhaven Holiday Apartments

A ground-floor apartment on the seafront at Aberdyfi

1 Westhaven is a comfortable ground-floor holiday apartment right on the seafront in the picturesque village of Aberdyfi (Aberdovey), on the Dyfi estuary at the southern edge of Eryri (Snowdonia). Sleeping four and welcoming dogs, with the beach and yacht club directly opposite, it makes a relaxed, well-placed base for a coastal break in one of the loveliest villages on the Cambrian coast.

The apartment

The apartment has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, sleeping up to four, all on the ground floor — handy for anyone who would rather avoid stairs and for unloading after the journey. It enjoys a beachfront setting with sea views, and is well equipped for self-catering, with a coffee machine, dishwasher and microwave in the kitchen, a washing machine and a work desk. Free WiFi is provided, and the apartment is pet-friendly (a fee may apply), so the family dog can join the holiday.

Location

The position is the real draw: 1 Westhaven sits directly opposite Aberdyfi Beach and the yacht club, with the sand, the shops and the village’s cafés and pubs all on the doorstep — less than a mile to the beach and the golf links. Aberdyfi is a genuinely walkable village, so you can happily settle in and leave the car for the duration. (Note that the apartment does not have its own parking.)

Aberdyfi and the Dyfi estuary

Aberdyfi is a beautiful seaside village where the Dyfi estuary meets Cardigan Bay, with four miles of golden sand, a pretty jetty and the mountains of Snowdonia rising behind. It has a relaxed, sailing-and-strolling feel, with good little shops, galleries and places to eat along the front. For more places to stay in the wider area, see our guide to accommodation in Snowdonia.

Days out from the apartment

There is plenty to enjoy beyond the beach. The championship links of Aberdovey Golf Club are right on the doorstep, and a little further afield the historic Talyllyn Railway at Tywyn steams up into the hills, while the mighty Cadair Idris offers a memorable mountain day for walkers. The Dyfi estuary is rich in birdlife — the RSPB’s Ynys-hir reserve is nearby — and the market town of Machynlleth, with the Centre for Alternative Technology, makes a good wet-weather day out. The wider Cambrian coast, with its quiet beaches and little resorts, is easy to explore by car or on the scenic Cambrian coast railway.
