Wales doesn't get enough credit as a great place to live. Much like England and Scotland, the country has its fair share of amazing cities. Some are big metropolises where you can maintain a nice work-life balance while others are seaside towns fit for a charming countryside life. Fortunately, many of our
luxury homes in Wales are in the latter. From coastal cottages in Saudersfoot to luxurious lodges in Penally, these are some of the most exquisite long-term rentals in our selection. They're perfect for when you're in desperate need of a holiday and escape the rest of the world.
The Suite in Cardiff
Cardiff is the best place to start this list. As the capital city of Wales, this is the most populous and busiest city in the country. Though it's far from London, it's a busy enough business hub that it's one of the
best cities to find work in the UK. And if you do manage to work here, you'll want to live in a place like this exquisite suite in the city center. Housed in a historic Victorian villa on Cathedral Road, its classic design reeks of old-world romance. But at the same time, the rental has all the modern-day conveniences (e.g. TV, kitchen appliances, etc.) to help you stay comfortable.
Trefelyn Cottage in Saundersfoot
Wales is rich in seaside towns that are just as idyllic as the
English countryside. Saundersfoot in Pembrokeshire is one such place. It's a large fishing village on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, surrounded by both forested mountains and scenic beaches. Don't you think renting a quaint cottage in such a destination is a good idea? With three big bedrooms and a clean bathroom on offer, Trefelyn Cottage is the perfect home for a holiday here. It's a cozy rental with ample space and all the necessary appliances. There's also a beautiful meadow right beside it, offering postcard-worthy views every day.
Hafordwen Holiday Home in Saundersfoot
This Hafordwen Holiday Home is the perfect vacation rental for a family going to Saundersfoot for a holiday. For one thing, it's a massive estate with a four-bedroom house with four bathrooms, a big kitchen, and a well-furnished living room. It's as complete a home as a house in the London suburbs. At the same time, the estate also boasts a fairly big backyard. When you're not going to the beach or exploring the town, this is the best place to play with your kids, perhaps set up a picnic, and enjoy a nice day under the sun.
Foxglove Barn Conversion in Pembrokeshire
Many of our luxury vacation rentals in the UK are barn conversions. They started out as farmhouses and then transformed into high-class homes vacationers can rent on a holiday. This Foxglove rental in the Blossom Farm ground is a good example. Located along the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, it's the perfect home for a family looking to have an adventure in Wales. The farm itself is home to many animals, while the barn conversion is an upscale accommodation with two comfy bedrooms, two clean bathrooms, a complete kitchen, and there's even a hot tub too. What more could you ask for?
Fisherman's Catch in Tenby
This two-bedroom Fisherman's Catch apartment is one of our
most charming luxury homes in Tenby, a well-known seaside destination in Wales. Off the bat, you already know that the scenic seaside views are what makes this vacation rental a real estate gem. Head on over to the bay window just beyond the grand fireplace and you'll see the sea in all its glory. Just opening the window will instantly fill the room with salty sea breezes and bright sunshine. You couldn't have asked for a better home to enjoy the coastal energy of Wales.
Dewin Bach Luxury Lodge in Penally
This Dewin Bach Lodge in Penally is definitely one of our most luxurious vacation rentals in Wales. It's a chic and modern space that boasts a big flat-screen TV, a linear gas fireplace, and a sunny patio with great views of the nearby greenery. While the kitchen isn't the biggest, it's a contemporary space filled with the latest appliances and a cool island equipped with a fairly big breakfast bar. The bedrooms are big enough to fit in a king-sized bed or two solo beds each and have ample storage for all your clothes. And for the pièce de résistance, there's also a bubbling hot tub outside.
The Rowan Luxury Lodge in Penally
This three-bedroom Rowan Luxury Lodge in Penally by Puffin Cottage Holidays is as high-class as a snowy chalet in the
French Alps. Perched atop the more mountainous parts of Wales, this exquisite vacation rental boasts a nice rustic design with big windows that let in all the sunshine when it's nice outside. The porch serves as a huge terrace to enjoy the idyllic woodland views, a scene that looks like it came straight out of a fairytale
Disney film. And since it's fairly far from the rest of the town, you can enjoy as much peace and privacy here as you want!
Penally Manor in Penally
Penally Manor is our ultimate luxury home in Wales. This grand estate has over 14 bedrooms, a huge backyard, a pool & hot tub combo, and the most scenic views you'll ever get to see in the country. This is the perfect rental to get when you're traveling with a big family or with several friends. There's enough room for everybody and lots to do on the estate alone. You can swim in the pool or enjoy a dip in the hot tub at night. Play with kids on the grassy lawn and even set up a lovely picnic for afternoon tea. And though Wales isn't exactly paradisiacal, you can always try to get a tan on the sun bed too.
Don't underestimate just how luxurious our many rentals in Wales are. From seaside cottages to large lodges, these are amazing homes that you won't find anywhere else. You'll never forget your stay in any of these!
