Pen Y Bont Cottage

Pen Y Bont is a detached cottage decorated and equipped to a high standard, right in the heart of Aberdaron at the western tip of the Llŷn Peninsula. Sleeping six, with its own games room, a woodburner, a barbecue garden and clever storage for kayaks and bikes, it is a brilliant base for an active family — the beach, shop and pub are all a minute’s walk away, so the car can stay parked all week.

The three bedrooms are a first-floor king-size with a characterful sloping ceiling, a ground-floor double and a ground-floor twin, with a shower bathroom.

Outside there is an enclosed front garden and a rear patio with furniture and a barbecue, plus off-road parking for up to five cars or boats, and a handy bike and kayak store with a drying area. It is genuinely set up for holidays by the sea.

Things to do nearby

Aberdaron is made for active holidays. The sheltered village beach is a minute away — perfect for swimming, paddleboarding and launching a kayak — and the Wales Coast Path runs right through, leading to the Whistling Sands at Porthor and around the wild headland of Mynydd Mawr, with its sweeping views to Bardsey Island. Seasonal boat trips sail from Porth Meudwy to see the island’s seals and seabirds, and the surf rolls in at Hell’s Mouth a short drive away. Back in the village there is a good shop, cafés, the pub and the ancient church of St Hywyn on the shore.

Who it suits

With a games room, a kayak and bike store with a drying area, and the beach a minute away, Pen Y Bont is ideal for an active family who want to make the most of the sea and the coast path. The parking for up to five cars or boats is a real bonus for those bringing watersports kit, and one dog is welcome.

Good to know

The cottage is genuinely set up for hands-on coastal holidays: the kayak and bike store with a drying room takes the faff out of watersports, the games room with its pool table is a winner on a rainy afternoon, and the BBQ garden is the spot for summer evenings. With the beach, shop and pub all a minute’s walk away, you can leave the car parked all week.
