  • Renovated farmhouse with mountain and coastal views
  • Welcoming wood burner to cosy up in front of on cold nights
  • Enjoy walks in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty from the doorstep

Property code: OC-BOW132

Overlooking glorious mountain and coastal views, this renovated farmhouse on the Llyn Peninsula boasts enjoyable walks within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, as well as days spent relaxing at golden beaches. Ideal for family celebrations and spending quality time with your nearest and dearest, sleep eight guests in this detached retreat as well as two happy hounds, should they be visiting too!

Boasting many original features, such as exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, this inviting home is the ultimate recuperation retreat for the troop. In the lounge, natter into the night on two cosy leather sofas, or fire up the wood burner and warm your toes after long hikes in the mountains. When it’s time for tea, the stylish kitchen/diner makes cooking up a feast a pleasure, with built-in appliances and ample space for your culinary needs. Serve breakfast, lunch and dinner at the dining table for eight, or rally the group outside, where a tranquil country garden provides far-reaching views of the mountainside and coastline. Upstairs, four delightful bedrooms welcome you to rest. The first of the bedrooms is a tasteful king-size room which benefits from crisp linens and outstanding mountain and sea views. Along the hall, a double bedroom also offers these jaw-dropping views, while a pretty single has views towards the mountains. Offering choice in the sleeping arrangements, the last bedroom has three single beds, which can be set up as one super-king-size and a single via the zip-and-link feature. Completing the property is the wonderful social lawn space, where inspiring vistas and seats to enjoy them, are great for setting up your plans for the day.

From the doorstep of the property, meander through endless beauty in the Llyn Peninsula. With endless walks to explore, join this stretch of pathway to find the Wales Coast Path, where dramatic clifftops, incredible viewpoints and crashing waves make unforgettable memories for you and your guests. The seaside town of Pwllheli is less than 10 miles from the house and well worth a visit. Watch the boats come in at the marina, build sandcastles on the beach, or lace-up your walking boots ready for a Welsh adventure. Stock up on local produce at the market held on Wednesdays and Sundays in this bustling coastal town, or meander through the cute narrow streets which have swathes of independent shops, boutiques, dog-friendly pubs and award-winning restaurants. To continue the nautical adventure, 15 miles from the property sits the former fishing port of Abersoch, where a beautiful sandy beach faces the stunning Cardigan Bay and is home to a variety of restaurants, bars and a buzzing atmosphere.

Wow! A lovely, warming cottage with modern updates inside. So much space, we had our dog and to note the cottage in hot weather was ever so cool and ideal for him with the downstairs area for him. Time really slowed down with peace, tranquility and stunning views as well as a nature walk from the cottage drive for more views. We have come back Read moreso relaxed and well rested. Not to mention the towns/ seaside towns and beaches no more than a 15-30 minute drive which are well worth visiting. Pwheli has a brilliant Wetherspoons and great for a little shop around as well as a Marina. Plenty of supermarkets near enough or a Londis not far at all. Abersoch and Dinas Dinlle lovely beaches, the latter is bigger and great for the day in the heat with more wet sand and a swim or dip in the sea. Abersoch is picturesque, we didnt visit in the day but looked like a lovely town too with cool bars just from the drive to the beach. Criccieth worth a visit, highly recommend Dylans restaurant!!! Delicious food with a view. Drive to Snowdon from this cottage was easy if thats part of your plans. If you think about doing Portmeirion, do it!! Worth the day pass, value for money in fact. This cottage has everything you need, we couldnt believe how well equipped this place was. Ourselves, including the dog did not want to leave! Hide

Fantastic level of accommodation and in a glorious location. Terrific views across the valley all the way to the southern tip of the Llyn Peninsula by Abersoch. Great location for lovely walks with the isolation of camping but with the height of luxury.

The house was everything we could have wanted and more. The rooms are spacious, and warm, and spotlessly clean. We have managed five star holiday cottage lettings in Pembrokeshire, and we felt the house was at the highest standard. Everything we needed was there. The gardens are beautiful. I had much delight in feeling the history of the house, andRead more the way in which the house had grown over time, and waking up listening to the birdsong, and the sound of the sheep. The house was an absolute joy to be in, and we felt sad to leave. We all said we would love to stay again, and we probably will. The welcome pack was perfect. Many thanks for the tea, coffee, welsh cakes etc. We were very pleased to hear so much Welsh being spoken in the area, from young to old. We spoke more Welsh as a result. We are from a part of Wales where the Welsh language is not used as much, so we were very pleased to have the opportunity to speak Welsh more, and it was very natural. Any visitors from further afield, there are some useful Welsh phrases in the information pack at the cottage, the locals very much do appreciate visitors attempting to use local phrases. All the locals were super friendly. The water comes from a spring from the hills behind the house, and it was beautiful. The water is very good for your skin we discovered! We cannot say anymore other than we had the most joyful time, and we feel so lucky to have had the privilege of staying in such a beautiful home. Our family members are between the ages of 10 and 42. We all loved the house. Our dog was very happy there as well, and was made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived by the dog's water bowl outside. There are beautiful footpaths from the house ( important to keep dogs on a lead, and close the gates as there are livestock surrounding the property). We will be spreading the word to all we know about this beautiful home. To anyone who is considering staying, just book it straight away, you will be so happy you did. Hide

We loved staying in the cottage. It was very cosy and warm and we liked all the period features such as the stonework and ceiling beams. The views are lovely in clear weather but it's also atmospheric in the fog. We enjoyed being able to walk up into the hills from the cottage. It was a lovely place to spend our Christmas

Beautiful house in a stunning location. The view is incredible and we were lucky to have glorious weather so could see all along the coast! Everything was lovely in the house and we appreciated all the thoughtful touches like the fresh flowers, logs, and blankets on the beds. Very convenient location - access is up a narrow lane but there are plentRead morey of passing places and it is not far at all to the main road, then easy access to everywhere! There is a lovely walk through one of the gates near the stream (look for the one with the yellow arrow on it) which goes up the hillside for panoramic views.

Cottage was immaculate, spacious and very cosy; views were spectacular. We loved that it's within a working farm and were so close to the animals. We witnessed the farmer herding the sheep in the field immediately opposite which was wonderful. It feels very peaceful and private, but not isolated. My dog absolutely loved it and really enjoyed thRead moree freedom. He's not great with other dogs at the moment so is rarely off lead. The fields are enclosed, but sheep did occasionally escape the fields and wonder around the garden so as long as we did a quick sweep beforehand and then provided supervision we felt relaxed letting him off lead to roam the grounds. He is well trained and there is potential for a less well behaved dog to jump low walls/fences so would advise caution. Of course, dogs should be kept on leads at all times when following the public footpaths. Highly recommend. Hide
