    “Brilliant communication with owner and very accurate directions took us straight to our destination.”

    The photobook at the property gave us a good idea of how this building was transformed - We'd love to know if the layout was planned or did the building itself make some of the decisions. A really relaxing break - We were able to walk to the coastal path in around 15 minutes or drive to a nearby quiet beach where even on Bank Holiday Monday there were only 7 of us ! You can hear the main road but as we were out during the day, it was naturally quieter in the evening when we were sitting out ...

    The photobook at the property gave us a good idea of how this building was transformed - We'd love to know if the layout was planned or did the building itself make some of the decisions. A really relaxing break - We were able to walk to the coastal path in around 15 minutes or drive to a nearby quiet beach where even on Bank Holiday Monday there were only 7 of us ! You can hear the main road but as we were out during the day, it was naturally quieter in the evening when we were sitting out enjoying a drink and the exceptionally warm weather. The complimentary extras were a lovely thoughtful touch. The wifi was very slow so had to tether to my phone to facetime the grandchildren and make a few TEAMS calls for work. Underfloor heating was very welcome in the shower room in the early mornings (we always sleep with the blinds open so were up and about by 6.30am when it was cooler outside) Our eldest grandchild would LOVE the circular bedroom window but at almost six, we might struggle to entertain her at the property, but would not hesitate to book again as a couple. We have an SUV type vehicle and there was plenty of parking and turning space. The pub in Llanbedrog ( Glyn Y Weddw Arms) was closed while we were there but would highly recommend The Ship (opens at 12.30pm) and the nearby Spar where we bought some locally caught dressed crabs. All in all, a lovely property and a really enjoyable holiday.

The property

Pwllheli 2 miles.

A beautifully-converted stone-built detached church, dating back over 200 years, in the quiet hamlet of Penrhos just 2 miles from the popular seaside town of Pwllheli.

This Grade II listed church has been sympathetically restored to provide modern, open plan living whilst maintaining the ambience and character of this historic building.

Notable features of this Pwllheli cottage include a double-height beamed ceiling above the sitting area, superb mullioned church windows and many of the original fittings and furnishings of the chapel itself including the pulpit and lectern.

Upstairs, you will find a modern mezzanine master bedroom, with glass balustrade overlooking the sitting area, and Velux windows with views towards the sea in the distance.

This Pwllheli cottage is surrounded by an acre of grounds which include an historic graveyard, complete with ancient headstones, plus guests also have the use of a large field to the side of the cottage, with sitting area and ample space for playing games or stretching your legs.

Nearby, are the towns of Pwllheli and Abersoch, and only a short drive east will take you into the heart of the Snowdonia National Park.

A characterful Grade II listed church perfect for a cottage holiday near Pwllheli at any time of the year.
