Min y Traeth Holiday Home

Min y Traeth is a lovely holiday home in the seaside town of Criccieth, just 100 yards from the beach, with sea views and glimpses of the town’s medieval castle. Sleeping six across three bedrooms and welcoming dogs, it makes a relaxed, well-placed base for a family or group exploring the Llŷn Peninsula and the mountains of Snowdonia.

A seaside home moments from the beach

Tucked into a quiet residential spot just a short walk from the sands, Min y Traeth is perfectly placed for a Criccieth seaside holiday. There are sea views from the dining room and the upstairs windows, with glimpses of Criccieth’s clifftop castle from the upper floor — a lovely reminder of where you are. A sitting-out area with garden furniture is a nice spot to relax after a day by the sea.

Bedrooms and comfort

The house has three bedrooms — two twins and a double with its own en-suite shower room — sleeping six, with a main bathroom upstairs and a downstairs cloakroom. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a double oven, a comfortable lounge with a TV and DVD player, a separate dining room and a handy utility room. Towels and freshly made-up beds are provided, and dogs are welcome too.

Where it is

Min y Traeth sits in a quiet part of Criccieth, a charming seaside town famous for its castle on the headland between two beaches and for Cadwalader’s renowned ice cream. The beach, shops, cafes and the castle are all within an easy walk. You can browse more places to stay across the area on our Llŷn Peninsula accommodation page.

Things to do nearby

Criccieth is a wonderful base for the Llŷn and Snowdonia alike. The beaches and the castle are on the doorstep, and the vast sands of Black Rock Sands, near Porthmadog, are a short drive away. You can ride the Ffestiniog steam railway, wander the Italianate village of Portmeirion, or head inland into the mountains of Snowdonia. The rest of the Llŷn Peninsula, with its quiet coves, sailing at Abersoch and the Wales Coast Path, is all easily reached too.

Who it suits

With its position close to the beach, sea views and welcome for dogs, Min y Traeth suits families, groups of friends and dog owners who want a comfortable seaside base in the heart of a lovely town. Being able to walk to the beach, shops and castle makes it especially appealing for a relaxed, car-light holiday.

Good to know

Being just 100 yards from the beach and a short walk from the town, Min y Traeth lets you leave the car and enjoy Criccieth on foot. Please note the garden is not enclosed, so dogs will need supervising outside. The separate dining room and well-equipped kitchen make it a sociable base for a group, and it is a popular spot in summer, so booking ahead is recommended for the school holidays.
