This 3-bedroom beach house in Blacksmiths is the ultimate family beach holiday. Being just a short 200m walk to Blacksmiths Beach and recently renovated bedrooms and bathroom, this home boosts modern open plan living with relaxing holiday vibes. Designed with families and entertaining in the mind, this is the perfect choice if you’re looking to sit back, relax and enjoy the salt and sand.

As you arrive at the quaint beach house, you will instantly feel at home. Although the front of the house is yet to be renovated, as you walk indoors you will be greeted by modern beach living. The heart of the house is the large, tiled lounge, dining and kitchen area that opens out into the backyard. With large flat screen TV, leather lounges, air conditioner and ocean breezes, it is the area to enjoy during the day or evening. The fully fenced and secure back yard has plenty of space to kick around a ball and for kids to run around. There is an outdoor table and a BBQ to enjoy a meal outside.

The large fully equipped kitchen has everything you need including dishwasher, coffee machine and full-sized fridge. There is also a formal dining area to seat up to 8 people. The front of the house has a second lounge area with TV.

The three bedrooms are recently renovated with ceiling fans, sleeping up to 8 people, perfect for 1 or 2 families. The main bedroom has a comfortable king bed and relaxing sun bed. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has a queen bed, king single bed and trundle bed. The brand-new bathroom is modern with large shower and double vanity, with a second toilet and shower located in the laundry.

Blacksmiths Beach is a great, safe, swimming beach for kids, being sheltered by the break wall. It is just a short walk to takeaway shops, pub, small convenience store and café and a short drive to Swansea city center. Located between the beach and the lake, Blacksmiths is a unique area great for boating, fishing, swimming and exploring. Blacksmiths also has a shallow swimming hole called Grannies Pool which is the perfect place to cool off. There is plenty of parking for a boat!
