    “The property is beautiful, the owners have really thought about the little details, such as hot water bottles and blankets in all the bedrooms.”

    The rooms are all large and comfortable and the games room was a great addition. The location is great too you are only minutes away from plenty of beautiful places to explore. I would strongly recommend the pub down the road for a meal. The only downside for us was the cleanliness of the property I spent the first evening cleaning as there were cobwebs and dust everywhere.

    The rooms are all large and comfortable and the games room was a great addition. The location is great too you are only minutes away from plenty of beautiful places to explore. I would strongly recommend the pub down the road for a meal. The only downside for us was the cleanliness of the property I spent the first evening cleaning as there were cobwebs and dust everywhere. The kitchen was filthy and clearly had not been cleaned at all. And we were very disappointed that the garden had not been done before we arrived so the grass was too long for the children to play out in. It is also worth noting that the garden is not enclosed so if you are taking a dog that is likely to escape you would need to keep them on a lead. All in all we had a fantastic week here despite the weather. If those little things were addressed it would be a 5 star review. Thank you very much for a great holiday.

    - Sarah, June 2024

    We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Gwynle and the area and can only apologise that the kitchen had not been cleaned. We are trying to ascertain why this had not been done and are asking our cleaning team what happened. We take great pride in our house and take every effort to make sure it is clean and perfect for our guests. Apologies too for the back lawn not having been cut. This was due to a key left in the garden door by the previous guests the day you arrived and the gardener not being able to gain access with his key that morning. We have altered the key system so this can no longer happen. Property Owner

The property

Resting in the little village of Chwilog, on the beautiful Llyn Peninsula, sits this wonderful period home, Gwynle.

Set over three floors and boasting a generous rear garden, this charming abode is a great choice for families and friends to come together and enjoy this exciting Welsh region.

The property is believed to date back to the late 1800’s when it was once occupied by a Captain, however it has now been maintained and modernised to offer a more contemporary living space yet still retains all the charm and character in keeping with age and period.

Spend your down time in the sitting room, appointed with two plush sofas where you can snuggle up in front of the woodburning stove, discussing the day’s events or browsing the TV for something to watch.

The contemporary kitchen/diner boasts a real wow factor; with a beautiful open-plan design and bespoke touches, including granite work surfaces and a multi-fuel burner.

The double-glazed conservatory offers a charming spot to sit and overlook the garden as the little ones happily roam the lawn.

The bedrooms at this Chwilog cottage are set over the first and second floor, offering two doubles and twin on the first-floor, served by a beautiful bathroom where you can enjoy a deep soak in the freestanding bath, while the second floor is smaller and offers a well-presented double bedroom with sitting area and a second bathroom with walk-in shower.

Enjoy summer evenings in the spacious garden, with a summer house and patio area with seating; it's perfect for hosting alfresco dining and entertaining long into the night.

Chwilog is a quaint little village and offers a welcoming pub where you can enjoy a night away from the kitchen, while the town of Cricceith is only a little further afield and offers a wealth of amenities, including its imposing 13th- century castle.

There are plenty of walks in the surrounding area, including the beautiful coastal path where you can admire uninterrupted sea views or visit St Cybi’s Well, a hidden holy well nestled in a secluded spot at the base of the Llyn Peninsula.

You are situated in a truly wonderful position, with easy access to the thriving coastline for a number of attractions, such as Pwllheli beach, ideal for those sunny afternoons playing beach games with your little ones or taking the opportunity to go for a swim in the clear waters.

With all this, plus the beautiful coastal town of Porthmadog nearby, there’s much to fill your holiday itinerary at Gwynle, whatever time of year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
