About this 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.
The unofficial capital of the stunning Lleyn Peninsula is the bustling market town of Pwllheli, a traditional seaside town that offers a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants. Renowned for its sailing and water sports, the town is home to a marina which holds 400 boats, and two beaches, one of which holds a Blue Flag Award. The Lleyn Peninsula has incredible scenery, remote bays, sandy beaches, beautiful coastal walking, and excellent golf courses. The peninsula is recognised as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a large part of the coastline is owned and managed by the National Trust. The pretty harbour town of Abersoch; Criccieth, with its medieval castle, and the wildlife haven of Bardsey Island are all close by. The magnificent scenery of Snowdonia and the Isle of Anglesey are waiting to be discovered in this stunning part of North Wales.
