Beautiful little old cottage which made us feel we'd stepped back in time. The lack of television and WiFi were a real plus for us. Sitting watching the sea washed away all the minor stresses and strains of everyday life. Fantastic base to explore the beauty of the Lleyn peninsula with great walks from the door.

The location is idyllic, coast path on the doorstep, sunsets over the sea, hills to climb, swimming from a rocky beach just below, deserted except for a couple of fishermen. We loved the cottage with its old-fashioned feel, no mod cons except a great modernised bathroom. Highly recommended.
