    It is situated in the perfect location for exploring the area, just a walk away from Abersoch village and its beaches. The cottage itself is stunning - rooms that are even bigger than the photos convey, gorgeous character throughout & incredible, cozy, social spaces. I celebrated my 30th birthday here with friends & it was the perfect base to show them around the Llyn Peninsular. I was worried about 8 people sharing 2 bathrooms but it was fine. The beautiful master bedroom & the living room’s cozy log fire with beamed ceilings were definite highlights!

The attractive harbour village of Abersoch is situated on the Llyn Peninsula in a region of Wales renowned for its outstanding scenery and varied walking. The village, situated between two glorious bays, is one of the most popular sailing venues in North Wales and important sailing regattas are held there throughout the summer months. Numerous shops cater for the tourist as well as pubs, restaurants and cafes. There are also opportunities for golfers as there is a course just outside the village and horse riding facilities are also available nearby. Watersports enthusiasts are also well catered for, particularly windsurfing, water skiing and dinghy sailing, not to mention renowned surfing at Port Neigwl (Hell’s Mouth). The long, sandy Abersoch Main Beach is probably the most popular beach in the area. There is a wonderful selection of beaches in the surrounding area of the Llyn Peninsula, including the beautiful and often quiet Porth Ceriad, with it's high cliffs, and sandy Porth Oer ("Whistling Sands"). Most of the coastline is owned by the National Trust and there are many remote bays, sandy beaches and cliffs, as well as wildlife havens like Bardsey Island to explore.
