About this property
Tucked on the edge of the quiet coastal village of Trefor, Crogloft Cottage at Llwyn y Brig Isaf offers a rare blend of seclusion, sweeping views, and rugged Welsh beauty. Overlooking the shimmering waters of the Menai Strait and set against a backdrop of open countryside, this is a place to pause, breathe, and reset. Sleeping up to six guests, the cottage is perfectly suited for families, walkers, and those seeking a slower pace of life. Inside, the space is warm and welcoming, centred around a traditional multi-fuel stove, ideal for cosy evenings after a day exploring the coast or mountains.
Storage heaters throughout ensure comfort year-round. Step outside and you’re met with a large garden and uninterrupted views across the landscape, perfect for morning coffee, evening drinks, or a summer barbecue as the light fades over the Strait. The location is a gateway to some of North Wales’ most captivating scenery. Coastal paths and quiet beaches are within easy reach, while the dramatic peaks of Snowdonia lie just 18 miles away. The nearby village of Nefyn offers shops, cafés, and a beautiful beach, while Abersoch is a short drive for those seeking sailing, dining, and a livelier coastal atmosphere. For those drawn to history and wild landscapes, the ancient hillfort of Tre’r Ceiri stands nearby, one of the best-preserved Iron Age sites in Britain, with breathtaking panoramic views.
Whether you’re walking the coastal paths, exploring hidden coves, or simply unwinding by the fire, Crogloft Cottage offers a peaceful base in one of Wales’ most striking and unspoilt regions.
The small village of Trefor is surrounded by sea and mountains, overlooking Caernarfon Bay, and enjoys a harbour with stone breakwater pier and sheltered sandy beach that the Wales Coastal Path runs past, or the more adventurous can enjoy a regular surf outside the breakwater. The village benefits from a convenience store, Post Office and licensed social club. Nearby, in the village of Llithfaen, are the Welsh Language and Heritage Centre and restaurant. The pretty coastal town of Nefyn lies 7.5 miles away, sitting atop sweeping cliffs, and is home to a fine, two-mile stretch of sandy beach, along with a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants, and the award-winning golf club is popular with families and couples alike. Trefor is also within reach of the amenities of the popular towns of Pwllheli, Abersoch, Caernarfon, Portmeirion and Bangor. The coastline around this region is dotted with castles and coves, while fishing, sailing and watersports are all available. The start of the Snowdonia National Park is 5 miles away, with its dramatic scenery and abundance of superb walks. With its proximity to such a wide range of destinations, this area makes a superb base for a break in North Wales.
