DESCRIPTION
A stunning 8 bedroom detached coastal property in an elevated setting with breath-taking panoramic sea and mountain views.
Please see the floor plan and photographs and why not book an appointment to view?
Built in 1903, the Crown Lodge is an imposing Grade II listed stone building in an enviable location in Harlech, on the West Wales coast. Set in the middle of its extensive grounds with commanding panoramic views, this is a rare opportunity to acquire such a unique coastal property.
Commissioned as a prestigious home for William Henry More, the Crown Agent for Wales, the property is thought to have been designed by the renowned Scottish Arts and Crafts architect George Walton. He clearly positioned the house to benefit from the dramatic views with the principle rooms overlooking the Royal St David’s golf course, Cardigan Bay and the Llyn Peninsula beyond. The property offers extensive accommodation over three floors, with a total area of around 430sq.m (4,630 sq.ft).
Crown Lodge has the potential for a range of uses (subject to planning), including:
· • Lifestyle guest house with very substantial owners’ accommodation. Part of the house could potentially be used as a sizeable holiday let.
· • A boutique hotel, with much demand in the area from golfers and holiday makers.
· • A retreat, training centre or walkers’ hostel.
· • A grand family home.
· The property has permitted use of C1 Hotel/Guest House.
The Surrounding Area
Famed for its world heritage castle, Harlech is a thriving small town set within the Snowdonia National Park. The town offers a good range of amenities belying its size, including a theatre, swimming pool, golf course and excellent public transport. And though Crown Lodge is very private within its large plot, it is only a few minutes’ walk from the town centre.
With beach and mountain walking right from the doorstep, the region is stunningly beautiful, and is rightfully popular with walkers and wildlife enthusiasts. The recently opened Wales Coastal Footpath passes through Harlech, and North Wales is an increasingly popular destination for action holidays. Nearby there are world-class mountain bike trails and new adrenaline experiences such as extreme zip wires and underground trampolines. The region is renowned for its many narrow gauge railways, with the world famous Ffestiniog railway some 15 minutes’ drive away.

Grounds & Parking
The property is approached through substantial stone pillars that open to a sweeping tarmac drive which arcs past the lower lawn and kitchen garden before rising to the rear of the house and finally opening to the west facing terrace with breath-taking panoramic views across the golf course and sea to the Llyn Peninsula beyond.
There is ample parking at the side of the house and further parking at the front.
The grounds extend to approximately 3.8 acres (1.57 hectares). The house sits within the middle of the grounds and so is very private whilst being near to local amenities.
There are three lawned areas; the largest being the lower lawn which was once a tennis court. More recently the lower lawn has been used for marquees for special events and weddings. The middle lawn sits within the arc of the drive and the upper lawn nestles below the west facing terrace and is a sun-trap with stunning views.
Below the house there are two substantial timber decks, one of which was designed as a circular yurt platform. Behind the house, steps lead up to a mature wooded area which forms the backdrop to the property.
Adjacent to the kitchen garden there is a timber shed with covered work area. The covered area is currently used as a woodstore. To the south of the house there is a further canvas roofed woodstore and more mature woodland beyond.
The property benefits from a large amount of felled and processed timber that will provide fuel for a significant time to come.
