Reviews

Despite the weather being cold we were warm and comfortable in the cottage the location is good with lovely beaches close by. The cottage is well equipped and very clean. The sky on clear nights was terrific.

Mr A,

A great base to explore the Llyn Peninsula Beaches and scenery. Always a pleasure to get back and relax.

Mr L,

A lovely property in a superb location with sea views on 3 sides! Very quiet, and a bit remote, but we knew that from the website! It is in a good spot for easy access (notwithstanding the very narrow lanes!) to reach all the Llyn peninsula easily. Great bed linen and towels provided, very clean and well looked after. Brilliantly dog friendly, with plenty of fully secure garden spaces (our big Labrador and golden doodle failed to escape!! ) We would definitely stay here again.

Mrs H,

We have stayed at the house next door to this one and loved it, the decor is wonderful and there is everything that you need. Our bookings with your company have always been great and we've never had a problem.

Mrs Paula B,

Unfortunately there was no hot water all week thankfully the weather was exceptional! Finally after the ground pump was serviced on Friday the penultimate day before we left on the Saturday morning I had a warm shower. No curtesy call from the owners to let us know, luckily the family renting the adjoining property kept us in the loop. The beds were very unconfutable, I could feel every coil. The barn conversion was just as the pictures on the website depicted, very sympathetic to the original building and ultra-modern inside finished to a high standard. The location was secluded just as the map location advocated however you can hear the noise from the campsite across the road when you sit outside enjoying the evening sun which is a perfect sun trap to enjoy the end of the day. The views of the country side and sunset over the sea was impressive. My two dogs enjoyed the enclosed garden and the two public rights of way one 3 mile loop the other nearly 5 miles was just what they needed to stretch their legs. Shame the national trust do not allow dogs from April to October on the beautiful whistling sands at Traeth Porthor Beach which is only a 25 minute walk.

Mr Glenn H,

Great barn conversion, very comfortable and well equipped. A lovely base from which to explore the local area.

Mrs Jennifer T,

Perfect from start to finish, no hassle, good communication, photo’s true to life. Beautiful place, very well looked after. Just heavenly.

Mrs Wendy N,

Location

Enjoy your own private corner at Llain Iago - one of three semi-detached cottages within a beautifully converted barn complex on the Llyn Peninsula. Surrounded by stunning countryside and sea views, and just 3.5 miles to Aberdaron on the western tip of the peninsula. The three cottages enjoy privacy from each other - perfect if you want your own retreat and also ideal if you wish to invite family members of friends to join you at the other two cottages. With its own enclosed patio and lawn, this is a true haven to relax and to be inspired.

Access to the Wales Coast Path is within a mile. Follow this path for just over a mile to the west and you will discover The National Trust beach of Porthoer (Whistling Sands - where the sand does actually whistle when the conditions are right) with its beach-side cafe.

The picturesque seaside village of Aberdaron offers a range of amenities, including two pub/restaurants (Ty Newydd and The Ship) with excellent food, a thatched roof bakery with a tea room, lovely cafes, Spar and National Trust shop. It is also worth exploring the rest of the peninsula to discover more of the hidden treasures, little cafes and pretty villages that are dotted around. This includes Morfa Nefyn (10 miles) and Abersoch (11 miles), a slightly bigger coastal resort with a wide range of amenities including restaurants and shops. Pwllheli (15 miles), the unofficial 'capital' of the Llyn Peninsula offers a good range of local amenities including a variety of independent shops, cafes and restaurants, supermarket, banks and 2 markets - one on Wednesdays and the other on Sundays (May to September).

Some of the main attractions include the sacred island of Ynys Enlli (Bardesy Island) - once a site of religious pilgrimage, now a National Nature Reserve. Boat trips are available from Porth Meudwy (5 miles) to Bardsey Island. Slightly further than Porth Meudwy, on the most westerly point of the Peninsula is Uwchmynydd - a historic headland offering a spectacular viewing point towards Barsey Island and the coast. As these examples suggest, the Llyn Peninsula is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty and Llain Iago offers an ideal base to explore this special part of Wales.

The Llyn Peninsula, where the Welsh language and way of life still flourish, is renowned for its beautiful beaches and watersport whilst the majestic mountains of Snowdonia are also within a short travelling distance. There are numerous activities in the area including fishing, horse-riding, golf and Glasfryn Parc where you can enjoy go-karting, ten-pin bowling, archery etc. Plas Glyn-y-Weddw, a magnificent Manor with galleries, beautiful gardens and tea room with sea views is well worth a visit, whilst both the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highlands Railways also offer great days out. Not to mention Cricieth and Caernarfon castles, the Italian village of Portmeirion, a walk or train ride up Snowdon and much more.
