This wonderful two-storey cottage in a beautiful coastal village of Aberdaron on the Llyn Peninsula is perfect for a family or group of friends looking for a restful holiday. It is an ideal base for exploring this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is within walking distance of the lovely sandy beach at Aberdaron (0.5 miles). Aberdaron offers access to walks along the Llyn Coastal Path, or take a boat to Bardsey Island and experience the wildlife and rugged scenery.

A beautifully appointed detached home which is light and airy and has a homely feel. On the ground floor is a spacious lounge with plush leather sofas where you can unwind and watch the Smart TV. On warm summer days, you can open the large French doors to the garden or, in winter, cosy up in front of the wood burner. The contemporary kitchen has everything you need to prepare your favourite dishes, while the dining area has an additional settee and TV, making it a great social space. Completing the downstairs are a family bathroom, a king-size bedroom with TV and en-suite shower and a twin with TV.

A great day out for the family is Glasfryn Parc (20 miles), where you can try go-karting, among many activities on offer. Plas Glyn-y-Weddw (13 miles), a magnificent manor house with beautiful gardens and a tearoom with sea views, is also worth a visit.

Excellent cottage. One of the best we have stayed in. Everything done to a high standard, lovely area, close walk to the village where there is two pubs. A bit of a hill on the return trip back to the cottage. By day seven you are almost running up the hill.

What can we say? A stunning property in a superb location just above Aberdaron village. The property is exceptionally clean and very well presented by Catherine, the owner. It seems that every little detail has been carefully considered. She even goes to the trouble of leaving a delightful welcome pack containing milk, eggs, crisps, chocolate aRead morend biscuits! Great communications from the owner during our two week stay. Catherine gave clear directions to find the property which was all very straightforward. We have stayed in many holiday lets on the Llyn Peninsula over the past years and can honestly say this is the best we have ever stayed at! It is simply wonderful and we were very saddened to have to leave! But we have already booked for tje same two weeks next year! Highly recommended! Hide

A perfect place for six friends to hang out and renew old acquaintances. Even in November, with a week of decent weather, there were enough places of interest to visit nearby. Comfortable beds, modern showers, underfloor heating, welcome pack and great kitchen/dining facilities. Everything we wanted was there and we all enjoyed Gwelfryn as a base.
