About Dolphin Bach

Dolphin Bach is a spacious four-bedroom detached house sitting in an elevated position above Abersoch on the Ll?n Peninsula in North Wales.

Abersoch is a well-known sailing and watersports destination. The beach is half a mile away with sheltered waters and lifeguards. The town centre has cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops all within easy walking distance. The surrounding landscape is popular with walkers.

The house has four bedrooms across two floors. Ground floor: a twin with oak furniture and garden views plus a super-king with a stylish ensuite featuring a deep bath and separate shower.
