“The House of the Sea Bird” offers mesmerising views in your very own seaside haven
Hugging the headland and with mesmerising views, Ty Deryn Y Mor, (translates aptly to House of the Seabird), is your very own seaside haven. Waves lap, gulls cry and a coastal path weaves down from the garden through sea thrift to the beach. This house is seaside trendy and so relaxed you’ll even want to kick off your flip flops. Magical.
Arrive to breathtaking views and prepare for some serious beach time! Sitting on the Borthwen headland with its toes in the water and coastline all around, this is the place to be for beachcombing, swimming, surfing and exploring rock pools. In a sea-evoking shade of blue, Ty Deryn Y Mor is a gorgeous beach retreat where even the smallest detail has been considered.
Inside has a calm, airy and coastal feel. The kitchen and dining room have large glass doors and, with the sea stretching as far as the eye can see, it’s the jaw-dropping view which really feeds you here. The sitting room is hugely comfy if the weather turns – sit back and snuggle up on a comfy sofa with incredible sea views. Relax by the wood fire with books and games enough to while away the stormiest day watching the weather roll by.
You won’t draw the blinds in the two spacious bedrooms, with super comfy large beds, high ceilings and an individual touch in each for that palatial sleep. This beach house is so flexible for those who embrace open plan living. The main super king bedroom has a sofa to recline on, the second bedroom has a king bed and a double bed, making a sleeps 4 into a sleeps 6.
The bathroom is cute and sparkling and has a bath with a view! There is a shower room too on the ground floor with another WC. The porch serves many functions as a boot store, wetsuit and dog-drying area.
Ty Deryn Y Mor is a flexible beach bolthole and has so much to offer those who love relaxed living. The sea views are even better from the decking and the lawn is safe for children to charge around on. Beyond it, the cliffs drop down to the sea. A secret path leads from the lawn area down to sandy Borthwen beach – very handy for a quick clamber up after a swim for a hot shower.
Barbeque into the sunset from the best spot on the north-west coast! If dining under the stars on the headland gets boring, from the front door the coastal path stretches away in both directions. Church Bay Cove is a gentle mile walk should you wish to have a meal at the Lobster Pot restaurant, or a simple lunch at the Wavecrest cafe.
Two miles in the other direction The Black Lion cafe serves delicious food and is a great source for local produce. The local shop in Llanfaethlu village is a mile away and sells all the wood you need for the fire and papers for that quiet read with the lull of the waves.
Ty Deryn Y Mor is a great base from which to explore beautiful Anglesey too. Walk the coastal path, take to Holyhead Mountain or check out ancient Porth Swtan (Church Bay) down the coast. Cemlyn over the Garn is a stunning landscape with rare birds and peace.
Rhosneigr is quirky – arty and friendly with more beaches, small shops, galleries and bars such as the Oyster Catcher. Plus kite surfing, paddle boarding and surfing galore. There are larger shops and supermarkets at Holyhead, seven miles away, to stock up on groceries and indulge. The Sea Shanty in Trearddur Bay creates creamy ice cream. Beaumaris is lively all year and is historic and fascinating.
