    “If you enjoy getting away from it all, the location of Ty Coch is superb.”

    There are 360 degrees of beautiful views, from fields full of cows, to hill forts, Snowdonias mountain range in the distance, to the coastline of the Llyn Peninsula and views over the sea. The drive up from the village is initially up a well maintained narrow lane, however as you approach the farm (if you are in a normal car) you will need to take care as the lane becomes more of a track and we negotiated much of this in first gear.

    There are 360 degrees of beautiful views, from fields full of cows, to hill forts, Snowdonias mountain range in the distance, to the coastline of the Llyn Peninsula and views over the sea. The drive up from the village is initially up a well maintained narrow lane, however as you approach the farm (if you are in a normal car) you will need to take care as the lane becomes more of a track and we negotiated much of this in first gear. However, if you are prepared to be patient with the drive, the approach to Ty Coch and the feeling of place is superb. We felt it was a great place where we could go out for the day and come back to the calm. The sense of peace and quiet is enhanced by the sound of all the wild birds, seeing a hare run across the field, bats flitting in the air on an evening. Inside the cottage is an open plan space, with a high beamed ceiling so it tended to stay cool on an evening despite the heat. I would say the photos on the Sykes listing were taken when the cottage had just been done, as things are a little bit more worn now. The kitchen and bathroom facilities are good, and the bedroom area was comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the sofa on an evening and having a beer. In terms of the outdoor space, this was great for our dog to run out to and the seating areas were nice with fantastic views. We didn’t use the hot tub as we had the dog so didn’t want to light the fire. In general, the main outdoor space has a lot of steps so I would take care when moving around. The main patio area has quite a few loose paving stones and I think these need some attention as someone could fall over. There is a separate outdoor space which is down the steps from the kitchen area but the door is very stiff to open and the area outside there is a bit overgrown. Despite these points, I just loved the place. On a morning I could walk the dog down the lane and there are footpaths from the house but they appeared to not be used much so were overgrown and it wasn’t clear where to go. I would definitely come back here as it gave a sense of calm. Every day the view would be different or I would see different wildlife such as a woodpecker on the telegraph pole or a horseshoe bat at dusk. There is so much to visit on the doorstep, such as the Ty Coch Inn, Borth Y Gest beach, Tafarn Y Fic - the local pub, the brewery at Nefyn, or further afield - Snowdonia, Anglesey’s Newborough beach. A very relaxed area which made us feel rushed when we moved on to busier places before we went home!

The property

Trefor 2.9 miles.

Nestled on the outskirts of the small village of Llanaelhaearn, Caernarfon, is the rustic barn conversion, Ty Coch Bron Miod.

Positioned centrally to both the coast and countryside, this single-storey dwelling is the perfect place for a couple to enjoy a romantic getaway and explore Wales and the beauty it has to offer.

Stepping through the property, you're welcomed into the light and airy open-plan living space, boasting a contemporary kitchen, whilst exposed wooden beams retain the traditional character of the barn.

Here you can look forward to snuggling up on the sofa with a good film in front of the TV with your significant other after enjoying an intimate meal together around the dining table, toasting to a wonderful holiday.

Why not head outside to the well-presented patio area and let your four legged friend stretch their legs whilst you enjoy a spot of al fresco dining with a sparkling glass of prosecco followed by a dip in the wood-fired hot tub, soaking in the fantastic views surrounding you?

As the evening grows darker, return inside to wash away the day in the modern bathroom, fitted with a spacious walk-in shower, basin and WC, before escaping to the double bedroom to put your feet up and rest your eyes to ready yourself for another exciting day of exploring.

Llanaelhaearn is a stone's throw away from the fishing village of Trefor, where you can take an evening off cooking and enjoy a meal made with locally sourced ingredients at Bert's Kitchen Garden or enjoy a tipple with view at the local pub.

Trefor is home to the national forest of Coed Elerinon, where you can enjoy a tranquil walk through meadows and woodlands or for those more adventurous, take the trek to the top of Cei Trefor where views from the summit, on a clear day, extend to Ireland, the whole of Cardigan Bay, Anglesey, Eryri (Snowdonia), and the northern mountains of England.

If that's not really your thing thing then jump in the car and travel a few miles further to the seaside town of Nefyn, where you will find a selection of bars and restaurants to choose from after working up an appetite enjoying a day at the beach, playing a round of golf or discovering the local history at Amgueddfa Forwrol Llŷn Maritime Museum.

However you decide to spend your holiday, Bron Miod Barn Conversion makes a lovely base to return to each evening and is one not to be missed.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
