A tiny beach hut overlooking one of North Wales' most scenic bays has gone on the market for £50,000 after being owned by the same family for more than 60 years. Beach huts here rarely come up for sale, with many staying in the same families for generations. This newly available hut, however, features its own rooftop sun deck, offering sweeping views across Nefyn Bay and the surrounding coastline.Measuring just 11ft by 9ft, the pocket-sized cabin sits on the sands of Porth Nefyn beach on the Llyn Peninsula. External steps lead up to the raised deck, making it the perfect place to soak up the sea views and watch the sunset.

'The beach hut provides useful storage and recreational space.'A particular feature is the raised upper decking area, accessed via external steps, which provides an excellent vantage point from which to enjoy the beach, sea views and stunning sunsets over Nefyn Bay.'Despite its compact size, the hut is on the market for a fraction of the price of some nearby huts. In neighbouring Abersoch, one hut of a similar size was recently listed for around £200,000. Porth Nefyn is popular for its two-mile sandy beach, sheltered waters and breathtaking coastal scenery, attracting swimmers, paddleboarders, anglers, boaters and holidaymakers throughout the year. A short walk away from the beach is the tiny fishing hamlet of Porthdinllaen, home to the iconic Ty Coch Inn, a homely pub with outdoor seating that overlooks the Irish Sea. Facing the glistening bay, the Nefyn & District Golf Club sits on a dramatic headland that's often compared to an aircraft carrier. Down by the water, the bay and its rugged rocky reefs are popular and productive spots for catching pollack, bass, and mackerel.

The town boasts a great mix of local charm, featuring cosy cafes, local seafood joints, traditional pubs and independent shops to cover everyday needs. Elsewhere in North Wales, a beach hut with no power likened to a 'shed' has gone on sale for £200,000 in a village dubbed 'Cheshire-on-Sea'.The detached cabin is made of timber and corrugated iron, one of 17 huts on the dog-friendly Porth Mawr beach in Abersoch, North Wales.Completely rebuilt in 2023, the hut features private decking with views across the bay and was described as 'a perfect convenience for the coastal lifestyle in Abersoch'.Previously labelled a 'millionaire's playground', Abersoch is a favourite of monied holidaymakers.Some visitors are Premier League footballers, including former Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur defender Kyle Walker.Colleen Rooney, wife of former Manchester United star Wayne, has also been spotted in the village, prompting the Cheshire-on-Sea label as a nod to the affluent north-west area where many footballers choose to live while playing for nearby Premier League clubs.Abersoch, a seaside village at the western tip of Wales's Llyn Peninsula, has a year-round population of barely 600 and has also been called the 'Sandbanks of the North' after the glamorous Dorset neighbourhood.The nearby Lighthouse Island is owned by adventurer Bear Grylls and huts on its Main Beach regularly sell for more than £200,000 despite having no running water or electricity.
