Balmoral, Pendine

Perfectly placed in the delightful seaside location of Pendine, Carmarthenshire is this thoughtfully-decorated single-storey lodge, Balmoral. Boasting all ground-floor accommodation, an enclosed decking with furniture and close access to the local amenities and beach, Balmoral welcomes four guests to savour the ultimate escape to West Wales. After unloading in the off-road parking space, ascend to the entrance of your new home-from-home to be impressed by a well-equipped kitchen, hosting all the necessary appliances required to ease your self-catered stay; allow the designated chef of the group to rustle up a feast to be enjoyed altogether around the dining table as the wine is poured. If you prefer to soak in your surroundings a little longer, venture out onto your enclosed decking area to relish an alfresco affair, reflecting on your favourite memories so far before planning your itinerary. When the sky darkens, retire to an inviting sitting area and curl up in front of the gas fire ready to indulge a movie night on the Smart TV. Wash away the day in a spacious shower room before retreating to a neatly-presented twin bedroom or opt for a king-size bedroom with its very own dressing room and en-suite shower room, so you can get ready for the day in style. Begin your morning with a stroll to the coast where you can soak in the cliff top views, sink your toes into the sand and bask in the incredible Land Speed history that is synonymous with Pendine Sands. Travel to lovely Laugharne and envelop yourself in the history of Dylan Thomas with a visit to his former home, now museum to his life and his famour writing shed which both overlook the estuary. Or head west on foot along the Welsh Coast Path or by car into neighbouring Pembrokeshire and enjoy more seaside moments at Amroth, Wiseman's Bridge, Saundersfoot and of course, Tenby, all before refuelling at one of several coastal restaurants, pubs or cafés. Well-positioned to also spend the day traversing the Brecon Beacons or Pembrokeshire Coast National Parks, each offering an abundance of walking, hiking and cycling trails, Balmoral is the perfect base to begin your Welsh adventure.
