Perched between the sea and a historic castle, Castle Keep in Criccieth, Wales, offers what many consider the best rooftop terrace in the country. This unique property combines a stunning location with a bold castle-themed interior, including a lifesize mural of Henry VIII and suits of armour.
Unbeatable Location
The house sits in a prime spot with the sea on one side and the enchanting ruins of Criccieth Castle on the other. The castle, built by Welsh princes and later seized by the English, was destroyed in 1404 by Owain Glyndŵr and still bears the scars of that fire. Its romantic ruins have inspired artists like Turner.
Rooftop Terrace and Interior
The roof terrace offers panoramic views, perfect for morning coffee or evening BBQs. Inside, the open-plan living area features a beach bar, a medieval-themed corner, and a witches' brew kitchen. The property includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a self-contained annexe called The Cove, ideal for guests or rental income.
