The Brackens commands breathtaking views over the Malltraeth Estuary. Huge windows in every room make the most of this coastal eco-friendly three-bedroom home. Featuring a rewilded garden that reaches down to the coastal footpath and estuary, perfect for nature lovers.
The magnificent open-plan living area features a double-height, cathedral-style ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer sublime views of the estuary and mountains. The stylish interior is minimally but comfortably furnished, creating a perfect space to curl up on the sofa with your morning coffee and enjoy the natural light and lovely views. Two steps up from the living area, you'll find a dining table for six guests and a fully equipped kitchen with an island/breakfast bar. Tucked away to the side of the living space is a TV snug with a sliding door, ideal for cosy movie nights or a quiet space for kids to play while adults enjoy dinner. A mezzanine area above the living space doubles as a study and a quiet reading nook with views to the front and back of the house.
The Brackens offers three ground-floor bedrooms, making it ideal for guests who have difficulty with stairs and for families with toddlers. The principal bedroom and the second bedroom both feature king-size beds, while the third bedroom has twin beds. There are two family bathrooms, one with a walk-in shower and the other with both a bath and a large walk-in shower. Both bathrooms are equipped with sinks, heated towel rails, and toilets. A separate guest toilet is located next to the utility area.
The rewilded garden at The Brackens is a haven for wildlife. A lawned area at the side of the property includes a den area amongst the trees at the back of the house provides a space for imaginative adventures. A patio wraps around the entire house, offering space for dining or relaxing while listening to the sounds of nature and the waves. A little path winds through the garden. Please note, parents will need to supervise children in the garden due to the unfenced pond.
There is ample enclosed parking for four cars.
The Neighborhood:
Malltraeth (said: MAHL-traith) is for nature lovers, walkers and cyclists, and another brilliant dog-friendly spot on the island. It's also a paradise for bird watchers, and its birdlife is popular enough to have landed on TV more than once.
The Cob, a mile-long path along the old estuary wall, is home to Shelducks and once painted obsessively by wildlife artist Charles Tunnicliffe. Head to Llyn Parc Mawr for red squirrels or cycle the trails through neighbouring Newborough Forest. Ten minutes further gets you to Newborough beach, one of the longest, sandiest, most beautiful beaches in the UK.
Refuel at the Red Squirrel Café, it does the best hot chocolate around, and return to the Joiners Arms in Malltraeth for real ales and a great atmosphere.
Getting Around:
This peaceful village is best accessed by car. On-site parking is provided. While there are occasional buses, we recommend a car to explore Newborough Forest and nearby beaches.
