Reviews

A beautiful cottage, well furbished, in a beautiful area with convenient access to the coastal path and a cracking café just a short walk away. The owners were helpful and left a lovely bowl of welcome gifts and the whole experience was a real bit of luxury. Diolch yn fawr.

Mr P,

The dog friendly cottage is warm, comfortable, beautifully equipped and very welcoming. We've loved our stay. We really appreciate the effort and thought that's gone into the conversation and the quality of the kitchen equipment, bed clothes, towels etc. The extras - tea, coffee, dishwasher tablets, kitchen and loo rolls was just wonderful. The welcome pack of Welsh food was like having a warm hug to arrive to. Thank you. We will definitely return. One of the best holiday places we've stayed, not to mention the sunsets ....

Ms E,

Beautiful cottage and beautiful stay. Even in rainy weather, this place had everything we needed to provide a warm haven after cold wet dog walks on the coast.

Miss G,

What a fab little barn conversion, in such a tranquil and beautiful little spot. It’s been finished to a very high standard. The dogs loved the underfloor heating throughout. Great quality kitchen appliances, amazing shower, two smart TVs, great WiFi. We arranged an online shopping delivery with Asda, to arrive a couple of hours after us, so that was ideal. Lots of walking locally, and the local beach, Whistling Sands is a fab spot. Aberdaron is a short ride away for any last minute supplies from the Spar shop. Another fab beach here too. All in all, a great few days of getting away from it all. Abersoch and Pwllheli were worth a visit. So many great beaches.

Mrs W,

We have stayed in many holiday homes over the years and this one is right at the top with the best of them. It was beautifully styled and furnished and was immaculate. Roomy for the two of us but still had that cosy feel. Location is very remote but that was perfect for us, as it was peaceful and low light pollution meant the stars were incredible at night! If you are keen on walking and exploring then this is the place for you. We would highly recommend a stay here.

Ms V,

A lovely cottage , in a beautiful peaceful part of wales. I would highly recommend.

Mrs P,

We stayed for 3 nights, 1st week in October 2024. We arrived at 17.30pm. Our accommodation was lovely and warm from the under floor heating. Very welcoming and clean to a high standard. Me and my partner plus Bruno our dog made ourselves at home. There is a local Spar shop 3miles and pubs. Loved the local beach whistling sands only 1.5 miles. So peaceful. Nice cafe on the beach. Would highly recommend.

Miss H,

A lovely property in a lovely part of the country. Very disappointing to find the barn wasn’t as clean as it could have been… we shouldn’t have had to clear up after the previous guests! WiFi really poor, neither smart TV connected and unable to keep connection during online meetings. I would recommend based on location and comfort, cleanliness was a big downfall.

Mrs G,

A lovely place to stay in a beautiful location. We equipped and comfortable. Lots of lovely beach walks on the doorstep.

Mrs D,

Lovely, spacious cottage for two. Within walking distance of beaches. Thoroughly enjoyed our week.

Mr P,

It’s a beautifully designed and fitted out cottage, with lovely pictures. A feeling of calm and space. Lovely views.

Mr T,

Well appointed cottage within walking distance of Porthor ( Whistling Sands). Lanes are quiet and you have 2 views of the sea. Easy reach of Aberdaron , nearest place to shop for essentials. Great bakery there. Abersoch and Pwllheli are within easy driving distance. Check beaches are dog friendly, some limits in peak season. Wi-fi is poor if you need to connect. We had a very relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable stay. Highly recommended.

Mrs B,

Great location with easy access to astonishing coast and views.

Rev R,

The property is in a lovely farming area, very close to beaches and central to explore the area, good external terrace for eating or enjoying a drink in the sun.

Mr S,

I had a wonderful week in this gorgeous property!

Mrs T,

Furnished beautifully, very quirky but added to the holiday feeling. This cottage worked for us as we love going somewhere remote, the cottage gave a bit of luxury after our days out walking.

Mrs C,

Location

Tir Bach Iago is one of three beautiful cottages within an impressive barn conversion of the Llyn Peninsula. The cottages enjoy privacy from each other and should you want to bring friends or family members along, the other two cottages are the perfect solution. With its own spacious patio and far-reaching countryside views, Tir Bach offers a truly stunning retreat for couples.

Follow the Wales Coastal path to the west and discover Porthoer (Whistling Sands) - a National Trust beach where the sand does actually whistle when the conditions are right. This is also just 1.5 miles from the cottage and includes a beach-side cafe. Continue for another 2 miles and you will discover the beautiful seaside village of Aberdaron, on the western tip of the Llyn Peninsula.

Aberdaron (3.5 miles) offers a good range of amenities, from two pub/restaurants (Ty Newydd and The Ship) to lovely cafes, a thatched roof bakery and tea room, an ice cream shop, fish and chips cafe/take-away, Spar and National Trust shop. A wider range of amenities including restaurants and shops can be found at the coastal resort of Abersoch (11 miles) whilst Pwllheli, the unofficial 'capital' of the Llyn Peninsula (15 miles) has 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).

Amongst the main attractions, you have 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 Tir Bach 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.
