COAST WANTED
Western Mail
|July 12, 2025
HERE are some corners of Wales, especially on the coast with uninterrupted access to and views of the sea, that command a property price premium and some of them are obvious, such as Abersoch, Gower Peninsula, Benar Headland.
Then there are exclusive streets, leafy residential roads, and private estates in Welsh cities that happily charge a prospective buyer more than the Welsh average, or country estates and former farmhouses in the undulating countryside that can go to market with an asking price of over £1m.
But there's one secret and quiet area of Wales that is not only a surprise entry on a recent Sunday Times coolest postcodes in the UK list to anyone who has never visited, but probably not a shock to local residents, where frontline properties have eye-watering price tags.
To be included in the Sunday Times coolest postcodes in the UK list an area has to offer a unique array of activities, destinations, and a vibrant community to call home and the 2025 list of just 11 locations includes only one in Wales - Newport, Pembrokeshire.
