Jennifer
It had everything needed for a self catering holiday. It was very clean and comfortable. A nice garden to sit out in the good weather not too far from all the facilities in Nefyn. An easy walk to the beach/ coastal walk. No negatives at all. Had a good stay

A perfect base to explore the Lleyn Peninsula. Some wonderful walks from the door of the cottage - no need to use the car at all! The beaches in the area are outstanding, and the people very welcoming.

Kitchen had everything to make you feel at home (lots of Portmeirion kitchen ware to use) and paying extra for the hot tub was worth it. Large bathroom with bath and shower next to the bedroom. Location was very quiet and lots to do in Nefyn within walking distance. Stayed 7 nights and could have stayed longer!
