Beautiful welsh cottage Amazing sea views Dog friendly On the welsh coast path.

Llwyn Ffynnon Cottage is a stunning 19th century cottage, packed with original features – inglenook fireplace with log burner, beamed ceilings, and with all the modern facilities you could ever want. Drive into the property, over the bridge and into the wooded dell with ancient cascading streams. There is ample flat car parking in front of you. Walk down to the cottage, sit out on the terrace and be amazed at the views over the beaches and harbours of Nefyn and Porth Dinllaen – look out for the Ty Coch pub on the beach, and sometimes if you have the luck of the Irish, the Wicklow Hills – you won’t believe how close they appear. Walk down the footpath from the cottage along the side of the stream down to the beach – no more than 15 minutes, and then you are on the miles of golden beaches, all edged by the Rival Mountains. Walk directly out of the driveway onto the Coastal Path – the Pilgrims Way. North towards the Rivals, and you could be in Switzerland, or South towards Bardsey, and the Island of Saints.
There are three Blue Flag beaches on the Llyn; Aberdaron, Abersoch and Pwllehli. Not to mention beautiful Nefyn beach and the bay of Porthdinllaen.
If you are bringing your four legged friend, Nefyn beach is mostly dog friendly.
All the rooms in the cottage have a sea view. There are three bedrooms and three bathrooms, the shower room is on the ground floor. Please note that apart from the stairs there are also a couple of internal steps on the ground floor.
As we are on the side of the mountain the area outside the cottage, apart from the immediate garden and parking area, is not flat and there are a number of steps to access the front and back doors. It may not be suitable for the infirm, although we have had a 91 year old staying who had no problems at all and our own octogenarian parents manage perfectly well!
Two well behaved dogs are very welcome as we have two of our own and our fields are well fenced, although we cannot guarantee that they are fully dog proof and you should be aware that there is livestock in the surrounding fields.
The mountain lane to the cottage is single track and is only accessible to cars and 4x4's. There are only five other cottages at the top of the lane so traffic is very light!
We have a number of outdoor games; Jenga, badminton, Boules and there is equipment for the beach, like buckets and spades, windbreaks and bbq bucket.
During your stay you may meet Terry, who looks after the grounds for us. It's not always possible to cut the grass and strim during change over days but he's very nice and friendly, and wouldn't say no to a cup of coffee!
Please be aware that there is a public footpath from the lane at the top, past the cottage and down the field, although it's not signposted and is therefore rarely used, except by locals.
This is not just a holiday let, it is our home from home, we spend as much time here as we can and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and an electric kettle.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

A lovely stay for 3 generations in a beautiful setting!
We had such a great time at Llwyn Ffynnon! The setting is beautiful and secluded with wonderful views of the sea, and gorgeous sunsets from the terrace and bedrooms! The cottage is charming and comfy, and has everything you'd need for a relaxing break. We travelled as a family of 4 plus our dog and my father in law and there was plenty of space for us to spend time together without feeling we were in each others' pockets, thanks to the bedroom set up and layout of the house - there are plenty of places to sit and relax both in and outside. The kids loved the garden and waterfall and the DVD and game collection (we had a lazy rainy day!) and our dog Herbie loved the fields! The Spar in the village is perfect for stocking up - and the essential trips to the milkshake machine for the kids! So much to do nearby - the local beach at Nefyn is lovely and child/dog friendly, plus the walk along the coast to the Ty Coch from Morfa Nefyn is a must! Slightly further afield - Beaumaris on Angelsey for a boat trip to Puffin Island, Caernafon and Glynllifon - all lovely. Yes, the lane to the cottage is a little narrow/steep, but that is fairly standard in more rural areas and we had no trouble with our MPV. We had a few, very minor issues on check in and with a fuse - both dealt with very promptly by the hosts. Thank you Chris and Jen - we hope to return one day!

A fantastic house in a fantastic area. We loved it. Beautiful views and sunsets over the water. Everything we could need in the house and more! Binoculars, puzzles, books, maps, beach toys etc. A short walk to the beach, where toilets and a great cafe/shop are available at the far end. Useful Spar and a Premier in Nefyn and a good pizza takeaway. The whole Llýn Peninsular is beautiful and worth exploring. Would definitely return.

What a view!!
What an amazing place perched upon a hill and a view to behold. The lane up to the cottage is a one car lane but we were in a a SUV and had no problems whatsoever and we never met another vehicle coming or going. Beautiful house with many different rooms,mind your head in a few places if you're over six foot as i am but again,no problems. We had a great time and weather was fairly kind which in turn gave us some amazing sunsets across the sea. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever.

Lovely week in Wales
Cottage had everything we needed for our weeks stay and was extremely comfortable. We were extremely lucky with the weather. As per the description the cottage is at the top of a very narrow lane so our cars stayed parked up for the week. Took about 15 minutes to walk to the beach and a little longer to the town. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would recommend

Good for the soul
A wonderful cottage with a 5 star view from the patio area….which is really well kitted out with a corner sofa, bbq, and dining table AND is a real sun trap too. If you like stunning sunsets with an unspoiled sea view, this is the place for you. Also - only a 5/10min walk down to the beach with a cafe stop on the way / way back. We took our 2 dogs and they were not only safe to roam to 2 secure garden areas - they loved their daily beach runs too. The cottage has a great family kitchen with loads of space. We spent many evenings working through the various board games available. Lots of options for people to have time out for a quiet read (or iPad time!) too in one of the lounges or secrete gardens. Good options close by for eating / food shopping. The local shop is really well stocked with all the basics, plus great local produce too. All in all, a fantastic place for a family / friends holiday.

Lovely home
We had a lovely week at this property, the house was charming with a real homely feel, and the gardens were magical for the kids. The beach was within close distance, about 20 min walk through fields, and the local coastal path walks were beautiful. The views from the garden at sunset were stunning. We had a couple of little teething problems with some missing linen & towels on arrival but they were resolved swiftly by the cleaning company, who were new. Overall we’d definitely recommend this property and would return in the future.

A very peaceful location with lovely sea views. Numerous coastal beauty spots within easy reach; walking distance to Nefyn beach. Potential guests should be aware that access would be difficult for anyone with restricted mobility.

Lovely cottage, great location, fabulous views
I booked the cottage for its fabulous sea and sunset views and we weren’t disappointed. Ideally located just a few minutes drive from Nefyn, and with lots of walks (including down to the beach) right from the door, we had a wonderful weeks holiday. The trip was for my husbands 40th birthday and the owners were really helpful before we arrived with recommendations for places to eat and visit. We loved our trip to this beautiful part of Wales and I’m sure we’ll be back.

Lovely cottage in a fabulous location
This is a great base from which to explore the Llyn Peninsula. A very comfortable cottage with everything considered for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. A fantastic location, just up the hill from Nefyn village and, as many previous guests have commented, this affords the best views of the glorious sunsets over the Irish Sea. We would highly recommend the cottage as a great venue to either relax or to explore all that the area had to offer.

A lovely house, perfect for a relaxing holiday.
From the moment we made our booking everything was great. Our hosts were super helpful, all information was spot on and the cottage itself couldn’t have been better for what we wanted. A true ‘home from home’ in fabulous North Wales. So relaxing to sit on the lovely patio and watch the glorious sunsets. Even when the weather wasn’t clear blue skies, to look at the sea and be relaxed by the views all around was a real treat. The area is gorgeous, everyone we met locally was really nice and we could have easily spent another week there exploring the delightful surroundings. So many places to walk, so many things to do and so many views to admire. Thank you for letting us spend time on the hill - we thoroughly recommend this accommodation and we look forward to returning!
