Borth Cottage, Bwlchtocyn

A stunning six bedroom coastal house situated a stone's throw from the beach.

Borth Cottage, owned by multimillionaire and founder of moneysupermarket.com Simon Nixon, is now available for luxury holiday rentals. The property boasts its own helipad, mini-cinema, six en-suite bedrooms, state of the art kitchen, stylish conservatory and games room. The house is located just across from the beach in the pretty hamlet of Bwlchtocyn on the outskirts of Abersoch.

Set in its own beautiful landscaped gardens of more than an acre, Borth Cottage offers the ultimate retreat for rest and relaxation. Sitting majestically on a gentle sloping hillside commanding magnificent views across Cardigan Bay to the Snowdonia mountain range, the house offers the stylish delights of a top quality boutique hotel - with the decadence of having it all to yourself.

Borth Cottage has been sympathetically renovated to uncompromising standards of quality, the property offers spacious open plan living areas perfectly designed for entertaining or simply relaxing with family and friends.

The general theme is 'luxurious simplicity', with cool clean lines and natural finishes of stone, wood, glass and steel. Stylish designer highlights include dining chairs by Mario Bellini for Cassina, a B&B Italia Charles Sofa and Foscarini Caboche glass wall lights. The kitchen is designed by Bulthaup, while the glass cube conservatory functions as an airy breakfast room with breathtaking views of the rural setting. A bespoke solid oak table top in the dining room sits on two large toughened glass bases. A Tom Dixon mirrored copper lamp shade provides the centre piece to the glass, steel and oak staircase which sweeps down from the first floor, and in the master suite, a vast stone resin bath floats on a platform of marble flanked by glass in front of a huge arched window with views across Cardigan Bay.

The rental includes access to a personal 'concierge' service which can organise just about anything to ensure guests achieve their ultimate 'escape'. From wakeboarding, windsurfing, sailing lessons, to advice about cycling routes, horseback adventures or restaurant bookings to suit every occasion. Recommendations can be made for all local food specialists and fresh seafood can be delivered daily to the door. Yoga, massage and beauty treatments can also be arranged at the cottage.
