“The cottage is a perfect location to explore this area of North Wales.”

Spotlessly clean on arrival, cosy and comfortable. It has a quirky layout but that adds to it's charm. Yes it's on a main road but the traffic noise is not intrusive. There are some great walks from the front door along the Wales costal path. Supermarket and town within easy walking distance. Only slight issue is the lack of a freezer or freezer compartment in fridge. Owners might consider putting a small freezer in the utility area behind the kitchen.

“Gas fire didn't work.”

They sent a plumber who said it was fine but it still didn't work. Took ages to sort with varying instructions. Have owned and operated similar fires previously with no problem. No washing machine or outside drying facilities (unless you make your own washing line) Noisy location (traffic noise) Strange layout (would be better if they relocated the bathroom to the second bedroom and marketed as a one bed property maybe with a sofa bed in the lounge and turn current bathroom into a downstairs loo/utility) Dining room was nice but too far from kitchen meaning trips up and down narrow stairs constantly. Outside space is nice but never gets the sun and too small. Bed too soft and pillows are not great. Overall disappointing - we don't mean to be too critical but are used to better accommodation at this price.

“Lovely little cottage, ideal for exploring the Llyn Peninsula.”

The road outside was very busy with traffic. There was a lovely sun room upstairs for dining however, that would have been an ideal room for lounging in if there were comfortable chairs available to sit on. If you are staying at this cottage during peak season, ensure to book any restaurants well in advance as all the best restaurants were booked up when I enquired 2 weeks in advance. All the restaurants in Abersoch are also closed on a Monday. Would definately recommend Tremfan Hall at Llanbedrog (10minutes away by car) - one of the best lunches I've ever had!!!

“Owl Cottage proved to offer the least value for money out of the 3 properties that we stayed in during a 9 night trip around the Lynn Peninsula and Snowdonia.”

Whilst the advertised description of the property being located on the outskirts of Pwllheli was correct, it is a long walk to the town centre. The shower room and wc was very cramped and lacked ventilation, and there was a fly problem. There was only one cupboard in the main bedroom, the door to which was extremely hard to open/close. The kitchen lacked a freezer capability, either as a compartment in the fridge or standalone, which was not helpful in the hot weather.

“Convenient to all the places we wanted to visit.”

Lovely cottage only negative criticism would be all the rubbish on the front yard. Overflowing rubbish boxes, etc.This area needs a good clean up . Otherwise no problems.

“The cottage was perfect for us.”

It ticked all the boxes. It would have been handy to have a washing machine but other than that I couldn’t fault the cottage.

The property

Owl Cottage is a beautiful terraced cottage resting on the outskirts of Pwllheli seaside resort, ideal for a couples escape or small group who want to explore the Llyn Peninsula.

Feel at home as you enter this vibrant property, welcomed by a rustic sitting room in the style of ski chalet décor, here you can unwind on an evening in front of the Smart TV as the gas fire creates a toasty ambiance beneath the oak beams and exposed stone walling.

Resting behind is a crisp shower room, offering a sleek space to prepare for your day in style underneath a dreamy rainfall shower head.

Find the well-equipped kitchen on the ground floor, fitted with an electric oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge and dishwasher, ideal for delicious home-cooked meals.

Withdraw upstairs to find a double and a single bedroom, boasting pretty décor and ample storage, whilst a few steps up takes you to an airy living/dining room where you can enjoy uninterrupted dinner parties in front of bright patio doors to the garden.

Spend a summer's afternoon in your own private patio, savouring a glass of wine during an alfresco lunch on the bistro seating.

A short walk will take you to Pwllheli town centre, boasting a wide selection of shops, supermarkets, pubs, restaurants and cafés to keep you well fed and entertained during your stay.

Explore the local area and spend your days next to the glistening waters at the relaxing sandy beach, vibrant marina with watersports, or hop on an inspiring coastal cruise around Cardigan Bay and the Irish Sea where you might spot unique sea life.

Spend a day out at the harbour town of Abersoch with even more glorious beaches and watersports, or immerse yourself in culture at Criccieth nearby, boasting its very own medieval castle.

Venture out to the exceptional Snowdonia National Park where you'll find expansive walking trails, challenging cycling routes, and steep hikes up the renowned Mount Snowdon, or visit Zip World Slate Caverns for a truly unique experience in underground caves.
