About this property
Amazing sea views Set in 7 acres of fields Dog friendly On the welsh coast path.
Llwyn Ffynnon Cottage is a stunning 19th century cottage, packed with original features – inglenook fireplace with log burner, beamed ceilings, and with all the modern facilities you could ever want. Drive into the property, over the bridge and into the wooded dell with ancient cascading streams. There is ample flat car parking in front of you. Walk down to the cottage, sit out on the terrace and be amazed at the views over the beaches and harbours of Nefyn and Porth Dinllaen – look out for the Ty Coch pub on the beach, and sometimes if you have the luck of the Irish, the Wicklow Hills – you won’t believe how close they appear. Walk down the footpath from the cottage along the side of the stream down to the beach – no more than 15 minutes, and then you are on the miles of golden beaches, all edged by the Rival Mountains. Walk directly out of the driveway onto the Coastal Path – the Pilgrims Way. North towards the Rivals, and you could be in Switzerland, or South towards Bardsey, and the Island of Saints. There are three Blue Flag beaches on the Llyn; Aberdaron, Abersoch and Pwllehli. Not to mention beautiful Nefyn beach and the bay of Porthdinllaen. If you are bringing your four legged friend, Nefyn beach is mostly dog friendly and we have 7 acres of fields for running around in. We keep the grounds around the cottage as natural as possible and are rewarded with wonderful wildlife….. foxes, badgers, buzzards…… and an abundance of wild flowers. All the rooms in the cottage have a sea view. There are three bedrooms and three bathrooms, the shower room is on the ground floor. Please note that apart from the stairs there are also a couple of internal steps on the ground floor. As we are on the side of the mountain the area outside the cottage, apart from the immediate garden and parking area, is not flat and there are a number of steps to access the front and back doors. It may not be suitable for the infirm, although we have had a 91 year old staying who had no problems at all and our own octogenarian parents manage perfectly well! Two well behaved dogs are very welcome as we have two of our own and our fields are well fenced, although we cannot guarantee that they are fully dog proof and you should be aware that there is livestock in the surrounding fields. The mountain lane to the cottage is single track and is only accessible to cars and 4x4's. There are only five other cottages at the top of the lane so traffic is very light! We have a number of outdoor games; Jenga, badminton, Boules and there is equipment for the beach, like buckets and spades, windbreaks and bbq bucket. During your stay you may meet Terry, who looks after the grounds for us. It's not always possible to cut the grass and strim during change over days but he's very nice and friendly, and wouldn't say no to a cup of coffee! Please be aware that there is a public footpath from the lane at the top, past the cottage and down the field, although it's not signposted and is therefore rarely used, except by locals. This is not just a holiday let, it is our home from home, we spend as much time here as we can and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Thank you for taking the time to leave some great feedback, we really appreciate it. Glad the cottage provided everything you needed and that you had a super holiday. We look forward to welcoming you back.
Absolutely stunning property, had everything you need and was incredibly clean and comfortable. We booked it for the view and it did not disappoint - unreal views of the sea and mountains. Lovely area to explore, we had an amazing week and would love to go back. The road up to the cottage is narrow but not an issue - we have a big car, never met anyone going the other way all week. The dog loved having the fields to roam about in, and plenty dog friendly restaurants around. Gorgeous walk along the coast path to Morfa Nefyn, took just under an hour, and the Ty Coch pub on the beach is fab.

Check in simple, the cottage is fantastic, comfortable, well appointed and what location. We will always have wonderful memories of time out on the terrace. A short strole from Nefyn and a short drive from so many terrific beaches.

Such a beautiful cottage which is furnished to a high standard with everything anyone could possibly need.The views are stunning from the patio and the little front porch is ideal for rainy days to still admire the view.Our dog loved the fields to run around in.Its a ideal base to explore the Lynn peninsula
Absolutely amazing cottage in a perfect location.The owners have thought about everything by providing indoor and outdoor games, books, dvds, crafts and more which our children enjoyed.We will definitely stay again in the future. Thank you

Thank you so much for your kind review, we have tried to provide as much as we can for children because we know from experience that happy children equal happy parents! We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again in the future.
Stunning cottage with amazing views. Everything you need for all the family, from kitchen equipment to garden games. Plenty of space for everyone to have quiet times but also all to come together around the kitchen table or on the fabulous decking.Good communication with Chris, host before and during the the stay.

Thank you so much for your kind review, we are very pleased you’ve had a good stay, and thank you for sharing important information for future guests.
This is a beautiful place to stay. Spotlessly clean on arrival, a lovely little welcome pack, and absolutely lived up to the description.The views from the patio are stunning - the sea, green fields and the sunsets in the evening are something else. With not much light pollution around, you can see a million stars in the sky, and the binoculars in the cottage were used often!The dogs had so much space to run around in, as well as the walk down to the beach, via the path that runs at the side of the cottage.With little sitting areas thoughtfully dotted around the outside areas, it feels like everything is carefully thought out to help visitors make the most of their stay.It's peaceful and quiet, and apart from the sound of birds singing, and the babbling stream which runs through the grounds, there was hardly any other sounds at all.A lovely peaceful haven, with great hosts, a real place to get away from it all.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely and informative review. This gives our future guests a true feel of what we are trying to create and the beauty and tranquility of the area. Thank you again and we look forward to welcoming you back.
Really clean on arrival with a nice welcome pack of local staples. Well equipped with modern facilities, and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen! Amazing views from the terrace over Nefyn bay. Plenty of space for a family and dog, and lots of wet weather activities (although we didn’t need them!). The area has loads of things to do within an hour’s drive.

Thank you so much for your informative review, we really appreciate your feedback for future guests. So pleased you had a wonderful time.
This is a great base from which to explore the Llyn Peninsula. A very comfortable cottage with everything considered for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. A fantastic location, just up the hill from Nefyn village and, as many previous guests have commented, this affords the best views of the glorious sunsets over the Irish Sea.
We would highly recommend the cottage as a great venue to either relax or to explore all that the area had to offer.
Absolutely beautiful property. Everything you'd need for all weathers!The property was quiet, spotlessly clean and located on great walking routes. it's only a 15 minute walk downhill on footpaths to the really well stocked shop. The birdsong was a beautiful start to the day and the sunsets on the terrace were stunning.
Loved the house, loved the place, loved the weather. The whole week was amazing. The property was beautiful, clean, tidy, with lots of entertainment. Couldn’t have been more comfortable.
Cottage had everything we needed for our weeks stay and was extremely comfortable. We were extremely lucky with the weather. As per the description the cottage is at the top of a very narrow lane so our cars stayed parked up for the week. Took about 15 minutes to walk to the beach and a little longer to the town. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would recommend
A wonderful place for to sit and rest or taking activities in the surroundings. A beautiful garden with hidden places and visited by birds, rabbits and squirrels each morning. No matter the weather, you will always find the beauty in it.
Only issue: the stay was too short.
Very cosy cottage, great views, need to be very fit or have a very reliable small four wheel drive car

Thank you for your kind review, glad you had a lovely time. Our views are spectacular and the seclusion is wonderful because we are positioned half way up the mountain. The lane up is steep and narrow but is accessible to all types of vehicles and isn’t normally a problem.
The property is exactly as described and true to the pictures & views. The cottage is well equipped with everything & anything we could possibly have needed. Appliances were new & easy to use. We will definitely return to this property.

Thank you for sharing your experience, your feedback is extremely helpful for future guests and greatly appreciated.
Dont think I have ever stayed in such a well stocked property - there is everything you need to while away a soft welsh day from more dvds than blockbuster to games for all ages to a home from home kitchen with all the essential pots pans and then some! There was a slight
A fantastic house in a fantastic area. We loved it. Beautiful views and sunsets over the water.
Everything we could need in the house and more! Binoculars, puzzles, books, maps, beach toys etc.
A short walk to the beach, where toilets and a great cafe/shop are available at the far end.
Useful Spar and a Premier in Nefyn and a good pizza takeaway.
The whole Llýn Peninsular is beautiful and worth exploring.
Would definitely return.

About the host
Hosted by Chris Woodhead
We are Chris and Jen Woodhead and although we live in Derbyshire we spend as much time as we can on the beautiful Llyn. Chris spent many happy holidays as a child on Nefyn beach which is why we purchased this lovely property and our six children have been lucky enough to have the same experience. We love it here so much that in 2012 we got married at Nant Gwrtheyrn, a hidden little piece of Switzerland, well worth a visit!
Why they chose this property
The cottage had been on the market for nearly two years and seemed as if it had been waiting especially for us. It was in need of some TLC but we fell in love with it as soon as we came through the gate to the dell and the beautiful stream, the sea view was the icing on the cake!
What makes this property unique
The seclusion of the property is wonderful, with just the babbling of the ancient stream, sound of the waterfall and bird song for company. There are an abundance of wild flowers on the banks of the stream and in our surrounding fields, from snowdrops, daffodils, violets and primroses in early spring, bluebells in May and campions and foxgloves in summer. Sitting on the terrace above the sea on the mountainside, you can see Anglesey and the lighthouse at South Stack to the right and the double bays of Nefyn and Morfa Nefyn to the left! It's easy to while away the hours sat here, whether we are watching a weather front coming in, an amazing sunset, the Wicklow Mountains of Ireland or sailing boats in the bay. The Welsh Coastal Path runs right past our gate and you can be up the mountain or on the beach before you know it. For us, there is no better place!
