Due to its location on the Yr Eifl mountain range's slopes, the small community of Llithfaen, which is one of the highest communities on the Llyn Peninsula, has some of the best views in the area. The village has a local tavern that was built in 1988 and provides a warm welcome, as well as a village shop run by the local community. Llithfaen is highly proud of its Welsh heritage, and Nant Gwrtheyrn, which also includes a pebble beach, is home to a Welsh Language and Cultural Centre and restaurant. A fine, two-mile stretch of sandy beach that is popular with kids is located in the charming coastal town of Nefyn, which is 4 miles away and perched atop sweeping cliffs. Nefyn also has a decent selection of stores, pubs, and restaurants. The amenities of the well-known towns of Pwllheli, Abersoch, and Caernarfon are all accessible from the village. The Ty Coch pub in adjacent Porth Dinllaen was named the third-best "beach bar" in the world in a June 2013 web feature. There are fishing, sailing, and water sports accessible, and the area's coastline is lined with castles and coves. A 25-mile drive will bring you to the Snowdonia National Park, known for its stunning landscape and numerous excellent hikes. This region is an excellent starting point for a trip to North Wales because it is so close to so many different places.

The cottage has been lovingly renovated and has a lot of personal charm in the decoration. We felt very welcome as guests from day one. Paul, the owner of the cottage, looked after us very lovingly during our stay, so that we didn't lack for anything. Paul's warm nature was reflected in the loving furnishings of the cottage. The cottage has a charming location, you can enjoy the sunrise and sunset with a view of the sea from the bedrooms. The kitchen is well equipped and it's fun to cook for the family on the large gas stove. A big refrigerator with large freezer compartments can easily accommodate a week's shopping. Shopping opportunities are nearby and easily accessible. We were lucky that the youngster Guiness was in the paddock attached to the cottage during our stay. As a horse and dog lover, happiness was perfect. The cottage is very suitable for one or two four-legged friends. For us, two adults, two childs and two Podenco's it was a perfect relaxation and we definitely plan to come back. For such an enchanting destination, we are happy to make the 17-hour journey again. Big hug to Paul and his family, looking forward seeing you again.
