This walk-up seafront apartment housed in a Victorian townhouse in Aberystwyth makes for a delightful coastal escape. It boasts direct access to the mile-long promenade and is surrounded by local pubs, independent boutiques and fish and chip shops just a few minutes away. The bright living area offers stunning sea views from its large bay window, best enjoyed, we think, over a glass of wine on the window seat. When you're ready to explore, make a beeline for Aberystwyth's historic castle or ascend Britain's longest funicular electric cliff railway to Constitution Hill. Alternatively, spend your days on the sands of North Beach, right outside your door.

Or, spend your days just pottering around pretty harbour towns and farmers' markets. The well-established Wales Coast Path is particularly lovely along this sweep. As you wander –...
