Tan Bryn 1 Cottage

Tan Bryn is a welcoming first-floor apartment in the heart of Aberdaron, peacefully set between two little streams and facing the sea, with the beach quite literally across the road. Sleeping four, with a sheltered sun-trap patio and the Wales Coast Path on the doorstep, it is a lovely, low-key bolthole for a couple or small family who want to wake up to the sound of the waves at the very tip of the Llŷn.

A sea-facing village apartment with the beach right opposite

It has one king-size bedroom and an open-plan living area with a kitchen, dining space and a double sofa bed, sleeping four in all, plus a bathroom with a bath and shower. The standout is the enclosed patio — a genuine sun trap, sheltered from the wind and perfect for a morning coffee or an evening drink looking out to sea. There is oil central heating, a dishwasher, WiFi and a Freeview TV. The apartment is reached by external steps, and a parking permit is provided for the car park fifty yards away.

Things to do nearby

You cannot get much more central than Tan Bryn — the beach is across the road, the village shop a minute away, and the pub next door, with a fish bar right below for fresh local seafood. Aberdaron is the whitewashed village at the western tip of the Llŷn, with the medieval church of St Hywyn on the shore and a long history as the last stop for pilgrims sailing to Bardsey Island (Ynys Enlli); boat trips still run in season from nearby Porth Meudwy. Step onto the coast path for the headland walk to the Whistling Sands at Porthor, or up Mynydd Mawr for sunset over the Irish Sea.

Who it suits

With one bedroom plus a sofa bed, Tan Bryn suits a couple or small family who want a simple, characterful base right by the sea, with everything in the village a short walk away. The apartment is reached by external steps, so bear that in mind if stairs are difficult. One dog is welcome too.

Good to know

The sea-facing position and sheltered sun-trap patio are the real luxury here — you can sit out of the wind with a sea view, then cross the road to the beach. With the fish bar just below for fresh local seafood and the beach across the road, sunset suppers do not come much easier, and you can happily leave the car in the nearby car park and let the tides set the pace.
