Located between the Snowdonia Mountains (including the Rhinogs) and the beautiful golden beaches of North Wales, Llanbedr is a picturesque village. There are two great pubs in this picturesque village, which is located next to the picturesque River Artro and enjoys a mild climate thanks to its unusual position behind the high dunes of a nature reserve. The area also features a wide variety of wildlife and birds, convenient local shops, bike rental, and access to beautiful mountain walks. Harlech Castle, located in the nearby small town of Harlech, is the most impressive of Edward I's fortifications in North Wales and is a World Heritage Site. The town of Harlech is known for the world-famous Royal St. David's golf course, but it also has a beautiful six-mile-long sandy beach, perfect for long strolls and family fun. Nearby Barmouth is home to the breath-taking Panorama Walk along the beautiful Mawddach Estuary, providing vistas that have been called "the most sublime view in Europe" by John Ruskin, as well as a harbour where you can catch a ferry to Fairbourne to ride the miniature railway or head out to sea to try your hand at mackerel fishing.

I didn't mention the too small towels and quilts. Very disappointed with 'Sykes' as an agent, probably the worst 'agent' we have stayed with. There wasn't enough information about the property before we went and questions we had couldn't be answered. It appeared the owner couldn't be contacted in advance of our holiday, to answer the questions either.

The welcome basket was a lovely surprise and the house was very clean and spacious for six people. We had a problem with the oven one evening and the owner was very reactive and helpful. We absolutely loved the area and will certainly be back.
