The prettiest AirBnBs to snap up in Wales
When it comes to an AirBnB in Wales, you've got to think practically about where to stay and always bear the weather in mind. Of course, we might hope to be there for a sunny getaway exploring Harlech Bay and hiking up the Brecon Beacons, but the reality can be far less clement so a wood burner and space for wellies is essential.
With so much on offer in Wales – from hideaways on the rugged coastline, terraced houses in a market town, listed buildings in lush valleys, and pretty holiday cottages with sea views – it can be hard to choose where to go so perhaps a tour via all the best AirBnBs in Wales is in order?

Rural Carmarthenshire is a well sought out holiday spot and for good reason. Within the area, this is one of the best rentals, fusing modernist architecture with cottage charm. It's an extended cottage with a new section added on and has been sympathetically furnished to suit both sides of its persona. The house offer stunning views of the local area and is a short drive to the sandy beaches of Aberpoth and Penbryn. Fans of hot tubs will be most pleased, too, as this one has glowing reviews.

There's a double bedroom and a twin, a well equipped kitchen (as opposed to the usual kitchenette on offer) as well as a patio garden. Even better, there are a number of dog friendly pubs within walking distance.
