A great base point from which to explore north Wales.

Check with your host if you are unsure. The property is homely and relaxing for a perfect break at any time of the year from singles to families. Located in rural Rhos-fawr in the middle of the Llŷn Peninsular and within easy reach of the coast and Pwllheli town. This warm and cosy detached converted barn seems miles away from anywhere but ideally placed to explore the beautiful mountains, beaches and castles of north Wales. Be close to a variety of golf and sailing clubs. Horse riding, coastal walks and sports plus the Snowdonia national park. It's a great place to enjoy those special family gatherings too. Built amongst farmland with stunning views across the fields to the hills.

Spectacular sunsets and constantly changing sky scape can be viewed from the garden and front patio area. Don't forget to look up at the stars on a clear night. The sky above the Llyn is very dark and Pen y Maes is a great place to star gaze. Buzzards fly overhead every afternoon. Bats take flight over the cottage around dusk ( in spring and summer ) and Tawny Owls with their recognisable owl calls can be heard most nights. Wrens and other small birds often sit on the window cills. Rhosfawr is situated in the middle of the Llŷn peninsula which is an ideal base for travelling to all of the many tourists sites and beaches of north Wales including popular Abersoch, Caernarfon, Criccieth and Harlech castles and the Snowdonia national park. Nefyn beach is just 10 minutes along the road by car. In fact a 10 minutes drive in any direction will get you to the coast. May be take a boat trip to watch for whales in Wales.
