Hillside Retreat

A Five-Star Sea-View Cottage Above Prestatyn

Hillside Retreat is a stylish, five-star holiday cottage set high on the hillside above Prestatyn, with breathtaking views over the town and out across the sea. Sleeping six across three bedrooms, with a private hot tub and a glass-balustraded terrace to make the most of that view, it is a smart, contemporary Prestatyn holiday cottage for a family or two couples who want somewhere special on the North Wales coast. Dogs are welcome too, and the beach, town centre and railway station are all just downhill, so you get the best of both worlds — an elevated, peaceful setting with everything close at hand.

Open-Plan Living with a View

The heart of the cottage is a bright, open-plan living space designed around the view. Bi-fold doors open from the dining area onto the terrace, where the glass balustrade keeps the panorama of Prestatyn and the sea completely uninterrupted — a lovely spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Inside, comfortable sofas gather around a wall-mounted television, and the kitchen-diner is sleek and well equipped, with a breakfast bar and a proper dining table for sitting down together. The whole cottage is finished to a high, modern standard, with warm accents of mustard and grey throughout.

Three Bedrooms and a Hot Tub

There are three comfortable bedrooms — a restful master double, a second double and a twin room — served by two bathrooms, one with a bath and one with a walk-in shower. Outside, the private hot tub is the place to unwind under the stars, with the lights of Prestatyn twinkling below and the sea beyond. It is the kind of view that makes an ordinary evening feel like a real treat, and it comes into its own after a day exploring the coast or walking in the surrounding hills.

Exploring Prestatyn

Prestatyn is a cheerful seaside town at the eastern end of the North Wales coast, with miles of sandy Blue Flag beach and a long, level promenade for a stroll or a bike ride. From the cottage it is a short way down to the town’s award-winning centre, with its shops, restaurants and bars, and to the beach itself. Prestatyn is also the northern gateway to the Offa’s Dyke Path and the Wales Coast Path, so walkers can head straight up into the Clwydian Range, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, for wide views back over the coast — and there is a pleasant cycle track that runs inland to the pretty Dyserth Waterfall.

Days Out Along the North Wales Coast

There is plenty to fill a few days. The Victorian resort of Llandudno, with its pier, promenade and the Great Orme, is an easy drive west, while the walled city of Chester lies the other way with its cathedral and Roman remains. Closer to home there are castles, country parks and traditional market towns to discover, and for the more adventurous Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park — home to Zip World and its record-breaking zip lines — is around an hour away. After a day out, the hot tub and that view are always waiting back at the cottage.
