Abersoch, a picturesque harbour community in Wales, may be found in the Llyn Peninsula, an area known for its breathtaking natural beauty and a wide variety of hiking opportunities. The village's prime location between two beautiful bays makes it a prime location for major sailing regattas throughout the summer. There are several businesses, including shops, restaurants, and cafes, that cater to visitors. There is a golf course not far from the village, and there are also local horseback riding stables for those who are interested in trying their hand at the sport. Windsurfing, waterskiing, and dinghy sailing are only some of the watersports available, and Port Neigwl (Hell's Mouth) is famous for its surfing. Abersoch Main Beach, with its miles of soft sand, is likely the most well-known beach in the region. The Llyn Peninsula and its environs are home to a wide variety of stunning beaches, such as the rocky Porth Ceriad and the sandy Porth Oer ("Whistling Sands"). The National Trust owns the vast majority of the coast, and it features numerous secluded coves, sandy beaches, and cliffs, as well as wildlife sanctuaries like Bardsey Island.

    Beautiful views, peaceful and quiet. Everything needed in the lodge making it very homely after a long day out walking. We loved it being secluded, but commented we were happy the cottage wasn’t being used as might have felt odd sitting out and watching others in the cottage garden. Perfect lodge for a perfect week away x

  • Alison

    Great access to the coastal path and a path to the beach. The property is clean and everything you need is provided. We had a great week with lots of local walks and relaxing.

  • Helen

    We loved it being so remote, that’s why we picked it. Absolutely stunning views and the garden being enclosed really helps with the dog. There are sheep wondering round the field’s and great walks on your doorstep. There is a lovely farm shop who serve food on the main road about 10 minutes away if that and a spar just a little further on. Fantastic week away.
