Glan Felin Cottage

Glan Felin is a semi-detached stone cottage set in peaceful countryside about a mile from the fishing village of Aberdaron, at the western tip of the Llŷn Peninsula. Full of character, with exposed beams, a woodburning stove and a lawned garden with a stream running through it, it is a relaxing rural retreat for a family or group of six — close enough to walk into the village, yet far enough to fall asleep to nothing but birdsong.

The four bedrooms are split over two floors: two ground-floor doubles, each with an en-suite shower, and two single rooms upstairs, served by a ground-floor bathroom with bath and shower and a WC on the landing. The sitting room has a wood-burning fireplace and exposed wooden beams, there is a bright conservatory looking onto the garden, and the kitchen has its own dining area. Outside you will find an enclosed decking area and a lawned garden with a little stream, plus ample off-road parking. It is the kind of place that feels instantly homely.

Things to do nearby

This rural corner is wonderful walking country. The National Trust’s Porthor — the famous “Whistling Sands”, where the fine sand really does squeak underfoot — is a short drive or a good walk away, and the village beach at Aberdaron is around a mile off. From the headland at Mynydd Mawr, the views sweep across the Irish Sea and over the sound to Bardsey Island, while the Wales Coast Path links a string of hidden coves all along this shore. After a day outdoors, the woodburner and the garden are exactly what you want to come home to — and with barely any light pollution, the stars out here are spectacular. A little further afield, the National Trust’s Plas yn Rhiw, a manor with sub-tropical gardens, looks out over Hell’s Mouth, and the long surfing beach at Porth Neigwl is an easy drive.

With two ground-floor en-suite doubles and a homely, characterful feel, Glan Felin suits families and groups who want a peaceful rural base for walking, beaches and dark skies, with the village an easy stroll away. The ground-floor bedrooms add flexibility, and one dog is welcome too.
