The Story Behind Edge House
5 May 2026
A Luxury Coastal Retreat in West Wales
I’m Jane, the owner of Edge House, a luxury coastal holiday home in West Wales, overlooking Cardigan Bay. Edge House is a design-led luxury stay, created for guests seeking a retreat on the Welsh coast. From the very beginning, Edge House was designed as a place to slow down, reconnect and really unwind, whether that’s taking in the sea air from the balcony, walking barefoot on the beach below, or gathering together in our open‑plan living spaces.
Edge House isn’t just somewhere to stay. It’s a home shaped by memories, landscape and a deep love for this part of Wales.

Why Edge House Is Located in West Wales
I spent my childhood summers on the beaches of West Wales. Those long days by the sea shaped some of my happiest memories. When our family caravan eventually became too small, we were incredibly lucky to buy the café where I once ate ice creams as a child.
With the help of the exceptionally talented Hyde + Hyde Architects, we designed and built what became our dream family home in Aberporth, a truly unique house that our children lovingly call “home by the beach.” From the outset, our vision was to create a space that celebrated the wild coastline, fresh sea air and slower pace of life that make West Wales so special.
After creating so many wonderful family memories here, it felt only right to open Edge House to others, so they too could create their own.
What I Love Most About Cardigan Bay?
From golden sandy beaches and rugged cliff paths to independent cafés, local producers and welcoming villages, there’s always something to discover. Yet, despite its popularity, West Wales never loses that warm, unpretentious and homely feel. It’s a place that invites you to slow down and stay a little longer.
What People Might Not Know About Edge House?
Edge House is an award‑winning architectural family home, thoughtfully designed to bring people together. Inspired by childhood beach memories and the surrounding landscape, the house adapts effortlessly to different types of stays.
Whether guests are planning a family gathering or milestone celebration, a luxury coastal break with friends or a romantic retreat by the sea Edge House offers the flexibility, comfort and space to make each stay feel personal.
Supporting local businesses is also incredibly important to us. From recommending nearby restaurants and independent producers to filling the house with thoughtful touches inspired by the area, Edge House reflects the community it sits within.
What Makes Edge House Unique?
The uninterrupted sea views across Cardigan Bay are truly what set Edge House apart and define it as a standout luxury stay.
Sitting on the balcony, watching dolphins move through the bay or the sun dip below the horizon, is something guests often describe as unforgettable. We’ve carefully balanced contemporary architecture with warmth and comfort – creating a space that feels luxurious yet genuinely homely.
