Things to do nearby

Y Ffôr sits in the rolling green interior of the Llŷn, with the dramatic peaks of Yr Eifl — “the Rivals” — rising to the north, crowned by the remarkable Iron Age hillfort of Tre’r Ceiri. It is wonderful walking and cycling country, with the Wales Coast Path and a string of beaches only a short drive away. Pwllheli, the lively “capital” of the Llŷn, has its harbour and marina, a Wednesday market and plenty of shops and cafés, while the pretty castle town of Criccieth — with its clifftop ruin and famous Cadwalader’s ice cream — is just five miles off. The beaches and sailing waters at Abersoch and the gallery and sands at Llanbedrog complete a brilliant base.

Who it suits

With two double bedrooms, a conservatory and a pretty garden, Bwthyn Y Felin suits a couple or small family who want a quiet, characterful country base for touring the peninsula at their own gentle pace. The central inland setting puts beaches, mountains and the coast path all within easy reach. As it does not accept pets, it best suits guests holidaying without a dog.

Good to know

Quiet, scenic and central to everything, Bwthyn Y Felin is an ideal touring base. For a memorable day out, drive to Nant Gwrtheyrn, a beautifully restored quarrying village and Welsh language centre tucked beneath the cliffs, and remember the Llŷn’s dark, unpolluted skies make it one of the best places in Wales for stargazing. Please note the cottage does not accept pets and is non-smoking. Booking is handled by Sykes Holiday Cottages — use the Book button on this page for live availability and the latest prices.
