“We found Pen Y Groes clean and comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped, beds comfortable and the cottage has a very good shower.”

Pen Y Groes is ideally situated for exploring the Llyn area, we discovered beaches and enjoyed some great walks. However, the cottage has a problem with damp and we discovered black mould present on the fireplace wall behind the chest of drawers. This caused issues for my mum, who has copd and resulted in a trip to the doctor. The owner should look to rectify this as it is detrimental to health, as well as their property.

Thank you for your feedback, the owners are very sorry to hear about this issue and are attending to it straight away. Unfortunately nothing was reported to us during your two week stay and the owners were unable to resolve any issues. Owner relations

“Beautiful interior design, very clever use of space, the kitchen is really well equipped and the sitting room is very comfortable, and cosy with the log fire going.”

Bedrooms lack enough storage for clothes, but as only two of us we used the spare as well! The bed was very comfortable, slept extremely well. Shower room is tiny, but large cupboard has room for all toiletry essentials, and the actual shower was excellent. Would be useful to have something to dry damp things on especially if you've been swimming or walking in the rain etc, but as we only needed to dry our daily towels we hung them over the bannisters. I wouldn't recommend it for four adults because there's no second toilet, and limited clothes storage. But it was great for us, and we liked the location very much too. Community shop next door has good stock and friendly service, and you can reach every area of the Llyn very easily. Information packs very helpful - and a friendly text when we arrived was a charming welcome! A really good cottage, well designed and maintained. We'd certainly book with Menai again.
“Cottage was well located for exploring the area.”

Inside it was cosy and comfortable, with good views from the upstairs rooms. Internet was speedy and the cottage featured everything one might need. Note that the bathroom and shower are ultra compact so some maneouvreability is needed to navigate them. The kitchen could have done with a little more storage space, but other than that the place is perfect. There is so much to do locally that we barely scratched the surface in a week.
“Petit mais bien aménagé, confortable et idéalement situé.”
“Cosy, very tastefully decorated cottage in great location for exploring Llyn peninsula”

About the location

LLITHFAEN

Nefyn 4 miles; Abersoch 12 miles.

The small village of Llithfaen is one of the highest villages on the Llyn Peninsula, enjoying some of the best views around due to its location on the slopes of the Yr Eifl mountain range. The village boasts its own community-run village shop and local pub, which was established in 1988 and offers a friendly welcome. Llithfaen is very proud of its Welsh heritage with the Welsh Language and Heritage Centre and restaurant located just up the road at Nant Gwrtheyrn, which also has a pebble beach. The pretty coastal town of Nefyn lies 4 miles away, sitting atop sweeping cliffs, and is home to a fine, two-mile stretch of sandy beach, popular with families, along with a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants. The village is also within reach of the amenities of the popular towns of Pwllheli, Abersoch and Caernarfon. In nearby Porth Dinllaen is the Ty Coch pub, voted 3rd best 'beach bar' in the world in an online feature in June 2013. The coastline around this region is dotted with castles and coves, while fishing, sailing and water sports are all available. The Snowdonia National Park is 25 miles away, with its dramatic scenery and abundance of superb walks. With its proximity to such a wide range of destinations, this area makes a superb base for a break in North Wales.
