A unique opportunity to acquire a privately situated small holding with income opportunities and magnificent views of Cardigan Bay. An attractive, stone-built former farmhouse with three converted holiday-let cottages, sitting in around 6.97 acres of grounds, four electric hookups, and the most beautiful, far-reaching distant sea views overlooking Tresaith and Aberporth in Cardigan Bay, West Wales. Set in a rural location, with no nearby neighbours, and offers a lifestyle change being situated near the stunning National Trust beach at Penbryn, and the villages of Tresaith, with its pub and cafes, and Aberporth, with its pub, cafes, shops, and pharmacy, primary schools, and so much more. Nearby Cardigan town offers larger amenities and schools.

The property has recently been used as a successful holiday-let business with three self-contained holiday-let cottages and in the past benefitted from being a Camping & Caravan Club-certified site, allowing for camping spaces for 10 tents, and 5 touring caravans/motorhomes. This could easily be re-instated should the new owners wish to.

The Main House offers; Entrance from the main yard into a porch, with doors into; the lounge with the original quarry tiled floor, an oil-fired AGA range, stairs to the first floor, and an opening into; the kitchen/diner, which benefits from stunning sea views from both windows and is fitted with modern and stylish kitchen units, with an electric hob, a "Perrin and Rowe" hot tap over the sink, and an integrated dishwasher, the kitchen has the original quarry tiled floor, while the dining area has a wooden floor, a glass-fronted gas fire, and door into a very useful walk-in pantry.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE AREA:
Please read our Location Guides on our website for more information on what this area has to offer.

Main House Continued - From this room, a door leads into the; sitting room, with a door leading out to the rear garden, again with stunning sea-views, and original quarry tiled flooring, from here a door and steps lead down into; the prep kitchen/utility, with fitted units, double butler sink, door out to the yard, and door into the w/c (with butler sink and has space and plumbing for a washing machine.)

The prep kitchen/utility is a practical space to use when doing change-overs with the holiday lets, and also houses the oil-fired boiler that services the main house's central heating and hot water. The main house also benefits from a Megaflow hot water tank for the solar hot water panels.

On the first floor, there is a spacious landing, which has a door out to the side onto a decked balcony area (with steps down to the side garden) offering a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the views of the sea and over the land. There are doors off the landing into; three bedrooms, all doubles, one with an en-suite shower room, and the other with a former en-suite (we are advised all plumbing is still in place) but now used as a walk-in wardrobe. And the family bathroom, with an elegant, free-standing bath.

Holiday Let Cottages - The Holiday Let Cottages are formed in an L shape from the main house. Whilst these are currently set up as three individual, self-contained cottages, they could very easily be turned into one larger 5/6 bed holiday let unit if the new owners wished. All three cottages benefit from sea views.

Cottage 1 (Y Beudy) - A 2-bed property, with access alongside the main house into; an open plan kitchen/lounge, with vaulted ceilings and exposed A-frame beams, a fitted kitchen area with space and plumbing for a washing machine, electric oven and gas hob, sink/drainer, double patio doors out to the garden and patio and offering beautiful views to the sea and land, and steps down to a small hall with a door out to the garden/patio and doors into the; shower room. From the lounge, steps lead to the ground floor double bedroom and stairs lead up to the Crog Loft double bedroom area with views down over the living space and some restricted head height. Outside there is a patio area (which has space to complete a further patio area, and opens out to the fields and outside bath!

Cottage 2 (Y Storws) - These next two cottages and the store room at the end are all interlinked as well as being accessible from the outside individually. This cottage is a 1-bed property, accessed from the yard into a hallway, with space and plumbing for a washing machine, a cupboard housing the gas boiler for all three cottages, a door into the shower room, and steps leading down to a door that takes you into the open plan living space. With tiled/wooden flooring, a fitted kitchen, and an opening into the lounge area, with wood burning stove, double doors out to the rear garden area, and stairs leading to the Crog loft which is a double bedroom area overlooking the lounge, with some restricted head height. (We are advised that in the corner of the lounge there is a point where you could easily knock through to Cottage 1 to create one larger holiday let unit if wished.) Outside, there is a small patio, which opens up to the rest of the garden area of the cottages and property.

Cottage 3 (Ysgubor) - A 2-bed property, accessed from the main yard (and also from Cottage 2 and the Storage Barn), into the kitchen (currently there is no kitchen installed in this room as it has been set up as an office space, however, we are advised that all the plumbing and electrics remain so it could very easily be set up as such again), a door out to the rear garden, and stairs to the first floor and a door into the; lounge, with wooden floor and door into the storage barn. On the first floor is a small landing area with doors to; two double bedrooms, with an additional room off one of the bedrooms into a room currently set up as a children's bedroom but could be a dressing room, and has an airing cupboard housing the Megaflow hot water tank for the solar hot water for all three cottages. And a bathroom.

Storage Barn - Formerly the garage, this barn has been turned into two very useful storage rooms which, subject to the necessary planning consents could very easily be converted into a kitchen for Cottage 3, with a spa to the rear. There is water, power and lighting installed in both sections, with a Pizza Oven, sink area, and some worktops in the top half, and down the steps in the rear section is a wood-burning stove, double doors out to the rear garden, and a platform area, with water which would be perfect for situating a hot tub/spa area.

To the rear of the Storage Barn is an outside Shower Room with WC. This was used by the camping guests when the property offered Camping & Caravanning. This is ideal should the new owners wish to offer this too.

Externally - The property sits in around 6.97 acres of grounds and is approached off a country road onto a private driveway. The top half of the drive is owned by the neighbouring house (which you have rights of way over) and carries on around a corner and onto your own private drive. It is about a third of a mile long and passes your own private orchard and leads into a large yard area, which offers ample off-road parking for the main house and the holiday let cottages.

The main house benefits from gardens to the lefthand side and rear which offers ample space for veg growing, planting etc. The rear garden is an enclosed walled-style garden which offers stunning sea views and a lovely place to sit and relax. The driveway continues down the side of the Storage Barn and round to the rear of the cottages, where there is a shower room also plumbed for a washing machine and a W/C for camping, a small pond and garden areas for the cottages. The track continues down and branches down to the summer house - the current owners had planned to renovate this (STPP) to a self-contained let, as this spot offers lovely views of the coast. Back on the main driveway, you carry on round to the rear of the house where the drive again branches off to the right, down to a very useful tractor shed, and to your very own Cider Apple orchard! Back on the main drive, this carries on round to the back of the main house and Cottage 1, and onto the land.

The land has been split into four paddocks, the top left one has four electric hookup points dotted around the hedge line and, behind a hedge is the site where 2 former static caravans where all the plumbing and eclectic points remain which would be an ideal glamping location subject to the necessary planning permissions. The other three paddocks are in need of some fence repair but offer so much space and the views are so beautiful, this is a wonderful spot to further develop into additional Camping & Caravanning areas, or keep to house horses/ponies or livestock.

This is an exciting opportunity for anyone looking to make a lifestyle change in West Wales, close to the stunning coastline that it has to offer. The current owners have absolutely loved their time here and had this to offer:

"We bought Plas as a multi-generational property that has seen two of our grandchildren born here. We have had a successful holiday business welcoming thousands of highly satisfied customers, attested on trip advisor, with over a decade of numerous repeat bookings, which we jokingly referred to as our 'timeshares'! We fell in love with Plas at first sight and if I was to try and encapsulate it .. It is a jewel of changing light in sun, rain, sea mist and wind. The hay meadows have been cultured to encourage wildflowers and butterflies and to nourish invertebrates and birds. Full of orchids in spring to early summer it is a rare oasis in a sea of agriculture. We have planted two now mature orchards full of Welsh-named cider apple trees, some of the trees proving rare to find now, plenty of eating apple trees with a few plum, pear and cherry trees too. The view draws you in through each season and we have planned our house to maximise time-staring. It is a natural paradise, rewarding in its beauty and sea of calm."
