In an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Welsh Coast, Red-Welly is a collection of three former agricultural buildings, available as a package, on a self-catering basis. Lovingly renovated in 2007, Red-Welly offers ten acres of stunning greenery, the dream spot for anyone looking to spend a restorative time in a gorgeous space.
The Cottage is the former farmhouse, now an airy and stylish two bedroom property accommodating up to six guests between two bedrooms, one a versatile super king size/twin single set up, and the other either a king size and two twin singles or four single beds. Like all of the properties, it benefits from underfloor heating and is powered with completely carbon neutral ground source heat pump energy.
The Barn is a former pigsty, now sleeping two adults and two children in a bedroom with a single king size bed and two fold-down singles. It is tastefully decorated in a contemporary style with sofas that seat six facing the large glazed wall which provides an uninterrupted view across the field to the sea. The glazed floor-to-ceiling door slides open making guests feel as though they are outside.
The Dairy started life as a milking shed, and now sleeps four guests in two private bedrooms, one with a king-size bed and one with a queen-size. It is a modern space, benefitting from a single family bathroom, like the other two cottages, a very large kitchen with a huge table seating 14. There are two ovens and hobs, three fridges and everything 14 guests would need to eat together. In the summer months the sun sets directly in-front of the kitchen windows. The end wall is made up of floor-to-ceiling bi-folding doors which open out a brand new and spacious deck. Step through the bi-folding doors onto the deck, where you’ll find an alfresco dining table and benches, offering a lovely spot to enjoy a hearty meal in the fresh air whilst taking in the amazing views.
While each of the cottages is a delight, the real appeal of the Red-Welly compound is the sprawling wilderness of the estate itself. The site of an ongoing ‘re-wilding’ project from 2009, Red-Welly is a haven of flora, fauna, and untrammelled nature left to find its own balance. As well as ponds, lakes, shrubs and meadows, this ten acre patch of paradise enjoys its very own private beach. An original shepherd’s hut-cum-workman's wagon, replete with original bunks, table, bench, storage cupboards and tiny wood burner, is the perfect spot to steal a few hours of quiet reading or reflecting time.
Red-Welly is a paradise for outdoors enthusiasts, and the beautiful mediaeval church of St Beuno is well worth walking to. Alternatively, head to Ty Coch for easy access to Snowdonia National Park or Anglesey. For everything from sailing to Iron Age forts, coasteering to brilliant pubs, this is a great place to explore on a mini-break or extended stay. Sospan & the Old Butchers is a local Michelin starred restaurant - so be sure to book well in advance for a real treat. Alternatively Y Marram in Newborough has brilliant food, served in a marquee! If you make the trip to Beaumaris, The Bulls Head Inn serves great food and local bitter. Two Islands Ice cream in Abersoch and Poblado Coffee in Nantlle are also well worth a visit!
