Enjoy a magical escape to the Llyn Peninsula where crystal seas lap against golden shores and there are many gorgeous coastal walks to tread. Whether you’re cosying up by the wood burner or basking in the sunshine, there’s always a comfortable spot to relax and unwind in at this charming abode. Perfect for romantic retreats, fill your days with paddles in the sea and sunset date nights as you tuck into delicious suppers in the courtyard.

 

Stone walls, exposed beams and comfy furniture fill the lounge with character and invite you inside with open arms. Settle on the sofa and watch your favourite programme on the TV or lose yourself in a good book and while away chilly evenings in front of the warming wood burner. Spend balmy nights in the courtyard garden. Coastal hues create a tranquil environment in the first-floor double bedroom where there’s a TV for lazy mornings under the covers.

 

A beach lover’s paradise, the north of the Llyn Peninsula is dotted with fantastic coves and stretches of glittering sand where you can enjoy walking, sunbathing and sea swimming. With a superb backdrop of Snowdonia’s mesmerising mountains, the local beach at Trefor (2 miles) is a must-visit spot and there’s a quaint pier which is still used by local fishermen. Leave the sand behind and venture into Snowdonia National Park where superb views and towering peaks await. Mount Snowdon is 25 miles from your door and if you don’t fancy the climb, ride the Snowdon Mountain Railway to take in the panoramic views.

Lovely cottage and helpful owners. A welcome pack and everything you need for the dog, in case you've forgotten anything... Log burner which was welcome as the weather was a bit wild... The only thing was no where to walk to. You need the car, but saying that lots of beaches not too far away. Anglesey not that far either. We enjoyed our stay... As Read moredid the dog.... Hide

The welcome and little touches were well appreciated. It is a sweet compact cottage and the owners are affable, helpful and very dog friendly lovely people. The need for a car is essential to reach some of the outstanding beaches and the treasures of the local Welsh countryside.
