About this property
Tucked away in the pretty coastal village of Llanbedrog, Gwynedd is this inviting three-bedroom property, Awel Y Grug. Benefitting from stunning views of the rolling countryside, close access to the local amenities and beach, and pet-friendly living, Awel Y Grug welcomes six guests to enjoy a peaceful escape to North Wales. After unloading your belongings in the off-road parking spot, enter your new home-from-home to be impressed by a well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you and your loved ones can prepare, cook and enjoy mealtimes altogether; if you prefer to dine alfresco, make use of a convenience front terrace, where you can bask in your far-reaching views a little while longer. Cosy up in the charming sitting room if the evening grows cooler, adorning a Smart TV and woodburning stove to create an authentic and homely ambience. Completing the ground floor are two neatly-presented double bedrooms, serviced by a ground-floor shower room, ideal for the more senior members of your group. Alternatively, head to the first floor to find a lovely twin bedroom, in addition to a cloakroom and snug, where you can get lost in a good book or admire far-reaching views out towards the coast. If you begin to feel sleepy, wash away the day and complete your evening routine before heading to bed in preparation for another day of exciting adventures. In the morning, begin your itinerary with a scenic stroll to Llanbedrog Beach where you can relax upon the shingle shores, go for a paddle or try your hand at a variety of watersports, all before refuelling in one of the charming pubs or restaurants nearby including the Glyn Y Weddw Arms, Tremfan Hall and Aqua Beach Bar Restaurant. Further afield, travel to the National Trust owned Plas yn Rhiw, an early 17th century manor house with stunning gardens and grounds where you can delight in a family picnic. By car, access the picturesque surroundings of the Snowdonia National Park, home to Glyder Fawr, Yr Wyddfa and Zip World Llechwedd if you’re seeking some adrenaline-fuelled activities! However you choose to fill your days, do it from the quaint home of Awel Y Grug.
On the Llyn Peninsula, the beach community of Llanbedrog serves as a fantastic starting point for exploring this stunning region of North Wales. There are two pubs in the village, and both provide meals. Many secluded bays, sandy beaches, and treks may all be found close by. There are local opportunities for sailing, fishing, ponyback riding, golf, and the Snowdonia National Park is close by. The charming town of Pwllheli, which is only a short scenic drive away, is home to a beautiful sandy beach and breathtaking views. It also has a regular market that has been going on since the 14th century and is well-known among tourists and locals for its eclectic collection of art and craftworks, as well as a smaller local produce market on Sundays.

The indoor space is great - 2 boys shared the twin room upstairs and had a great âdenâ in the walk in wardrobe. Outdoor space was good for childrenâs tennis. Views from most rooms over the hills towards the Rivals, llanbedrog and Cardigan bay.

We had a very comfortable stay and the cottage was immaculate and well equipped. The beaches and the views from the cottage outstanding. We will definitely be returning! Thank you.
