Aberdaron 3.5 miles. This attractive, detached whitewashed stone cottage is set on a quiet lane in a rural, picturesque location surrounded by wonderful rolling countryside, only a short drive from the beautiful little fishing village of Aberdaron. This single-storey cottage will appeal to couples or a small family who want to enjoy time together exploring one of the most beautiful areas along this coastline. The peace and tranquillity is wonderful and the cottage welcoming, boasting a sitting room with comfortable leather sofas making the perfect place to unwind after a long day exploring. Put your feet up by the warming open fire and enjoy a good book, or reminisce over the day’s activities. The farmhouse-style kitchen is well equipped with a comfy dining area ideal for leisurely breakfasts, leading through to the conservatory, which is great for catching the morning sun and enjoying a cup of fresh coffee whilst planning the day ahead. Outside, the garden area enjoys a sunny aspect with fantastic countryside views. Porth Awyr is surrounded by lovely country walks that join up with the Welsh Coastal Path, opening up miles of unspoilt coastal and clifftop walks. Also within easy reach is the charming fishing village of Aberdaron, with its sheltered sandy beach, and the superb surf beach at Hells Mouth, really making this cottage an ideal base. The famous Whistling Sands Beach is just over two miles away and is set in one of the National Trust’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The marine visitors centre in Aberdaron is also well worth a visit, or you can simply enjoy lunch at one of the local village pubs. Abersoch and Pwllheli are popular resorts only a short drive away and further afield, but still within driving distance, is the Italianate village of Portmeirion, the wonderful Snowdonia National Park, and the Isle of Anglesey. This pretty cottage is an ideal base for exploring the riches this beautiful area offers, all year round.

Aberdaron is a seaside village situated on the beautiful Llyn Peninsula. The village offers a sandy beach, lime-washed fishermen's cottages, cafes, shops and a church. The popular resorts of Pwllheli and Abersoch are close by, as are castles, fishing, watersports and golf opportunities.

Reviews

No heating or TV when we arrived on the Friday afternoon. Heating was "fixed" TV wasn't. No heating again on Saturday. TV was fixed Saturday morning and heating eventually fixed early Saturday afternoon. These interruptions ruined what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend to celebrate my Wife's Birthday. Complained to Sykes (who I booked the holiday through - who I paid and who issued the receipt!). No reply so they are obviously "hiding" behind their T's and C's whereby the "contract" is with the owner (who Sykes will not give an address for so that I can take t up directly). I will never book another holiday through Sykes as, in my opinion, their Customer Service is non-existent! BEWARE!!

This is a lovely cottage. It was a really nice base to come back to and relax in. It was very child friendly and comfortable.

Porth Awyr was very clean and tidy, in a nice, quiet area yet with shops only a few miles away . Excellent walks nearby by also.

Rated by Mr Hawker reviewed on 7th February 2016

This is a cosy little cottage in a beautifully quiet location. To give an idea of the quietness, the highest number of vehicles passing our door in one day was 4 (two of those was the postman)! We used it as a base for walking along the coastal path, exploring the peninsula and wider area. It was clean and tidy upon arrival, the key collection was straightforward. The cottage was equipped for 4 people (the max number that can stay). There was a dishwasher and washer/dryer which worked perfectly. For our comfort the double bed was far too soft, luckily as there was only three of us we could simply swap the sleeping arrangements. Aberdarron is a lovely little village nearby (3miles), Abersoch is a 'trendy' little village a little further away. We can highly recommend Dylan's in Cricceith. Part of the attraction of this cottage was that we could take our dog. We also thoroughly enjoyed stargazing at night as a bonus due to virtually no light pollution. We would certainly recommend this cottage for peace, quiet and relaxation.

A lovely cosy comfortable cottage which was well maintained, equipped and spotlessly clean. In a beautiful secluded spot within easy reach of all places of interest and gorgeous beaches. Would definitely book again.

Rated by Mrs Main reviewed on 8th August 2015

The property was brilliant, felt freshly decorated and homely. Good for the dog, he enjoyed it as well.

Rated by Mr Rawlinson reviewed on 4th July 2015

We loved the location which we found to be very peaceful. The property was spotless and contained everything one would need for a relaxing holiday with views to die for.
