Zenobia is a striking Georgian townhouse set in the heart of New Quay, Ceredigion, a coastal gem where sea views, history, and charm come together in perfect harmony. Perched above the sweeping waters of Cardigan Bay, this beautiful home combines period character with an unforgettable setting. With its multi-tiered garden overlooking the sea, it’s not uncommon to spot the playful bottlenose dolphins that make these waters their home, all from the comfort of your own terrace. Stepping through the small enclosed front garden, you’re welcomed into a bright hallway that immediately sets the tone for this characterful home. The sitting room offers a picture-perfect outlook across the bay, where you can spend evenings by the open fire, watching the sun sink into the horizon. A second lounge, offers a peaceful space for reading or quiet conversation, while the spacious kitchen and dining space provides the social heart of the home, complete with dining space for eight, modern appliances, and direct access to the rear garden and outdoor WC. The garden at Zenobia is its crowning feature, a spectacular, multi-level outdoor haven designed to make the most of its panoramic sea views. Wander up through the terraces to discover hidden corners furnished for dining, lounging, or simply pausing to admire the ever-changing colours of Cardigan Bay. Whether it’s enjoying breakfast in the fresh sea air, sharing a sunset meal, or spotting dolphins gliding through the waves, this garden captures the very essence of coastal living. When it is time for rest, head upstairs to the split-level layout that offers four thoughtfully presented bedrooms. Choose from a king-size with sea views, a double with a charming cast-iron bed, and two bunk rooms, one opening directly onto the rear patio terrace. The family bathroom features twin basins, a bath with a shower over, a WC, and French doors leading to a Juliette balcony that frames the sea beyond. From Zenobia, guests are perfectly placed to explore some of Ceredigion’s most captivating coastal towns. In New Quay, dolphin spotting boat trips offer the chance to see the famous bottlenose dolphins of Cardigan Bay up close, while golden sands and friendly cafés line the harbour and Dolau Beach, creating a truly classic seaside atmosphere. A short drive north leads to Aberystwyth, where you can ride the historic Cliff Railway up Constitution Hill for sweeping views, wander the promenade and castle ruins, or visit the National Library of Wales to uncover fascinating local history. Meanwhile, Aberporth captures the tranquil charm of the coast, with its twin sandy bays perfect for swimming and kayaking, scenic stretches of the Ceredigion Coast Path, and the welcoming Cwtch Glanmordy Café serving local seafood and homemade treats overlooking the sea. Together, these destinations offer a wonderful mix of wildlife, heritage, and natural beauty. Zenobia isn’t just a place to stay, it’s a place to savour the rhythm of the sea, where every view feels like a postcard come to life.
