About this property
Trefor 2.9 miles. Nestled on the outskirts of the small village of Llanaelhaearn, Caernarfon, is the rustic barn conversion, Ty Coch Bron Miod. Positioned centrally to both the coast and countryside, this single-storey dwelling is the perfect place for a couple to enjoy a romantic getaway and explore Wales and the beauty it has to offer. Stepping through the property, you're welcomed into the light and airy open-plan living space, boasting a contemporary kitchen, whilst exposed wooden beams retain the traditional character of the barn. Here you can look forward to snuggling up on the sofa with a good film in front of the TV with your significant other after enjoying an intimate meal together around the dining table, toasting to a wonderful holiday. Why not head outside to the well-presented patio area and let your four legged friend stretch their legs whilst you enjoy a spot of al fresco dining with a sparkling glass of prosecco followed by a dip in the wood-fired hot tub, soaking in the fantastic views surrounding you? As the evening grows darker, return inside to wash away the day in the modern bathroom, fitted with a spacious walk-in shower, basin and WC, before escaping to the double bedroom to put your feet up and rest your eyes to ready yourself for another exciting day of exploring. Llanaelhaearn is a stone's throw away from the fishing village of Trefor, where you can take an evening off cooking and enjoy a meal made with locally sourced ingredients at Bert's Kitchen Garden or enjoy a tipple with view at the local pub. Trefor is home to the national forest of Coed Elerinon, where you can enjoy a tranquil walk through meadows and woodlands or for those more adventurous, take the trek to the top of Cei Trefor where views from the summit, on a clear day, extend to Ireland, the whole of Cardigan Bay, Anglesey, Eryri (Snowdonia), and the northern mountains of England. If that's not really your thing thing then jump in the car and travel a few miles further to the seaside town of Nefyn, where you will find a selection of bars and restaurants to choose from after working up an appetite enjoying a day at the beach, playing a round of golf or discovering the local history at Amgueddfa Forwrol Llŷn Maritime Museum. However you decide to spend your holiday, Bron Miod Barn Conversion makes a lovely base to return to each evening and is one not to be missed.
Resting on the north coast of the Llŷn Peninsula lies the small fishing village of Trefor. Overlooking Caernarfon Bay and surrounded by sea and mountains, Trefor is an ideal base to explore the Welsh coastline and countryside. The village is home to a convenience store and licensed social club and is located 7.5 miles from the town of Nefyn, hosting a selection of shops, pubs and restaurants, and an award-winning golf club.

I loved that it was away from everyone and we could well and truly relax. The property itself was well maintained and had everything we needed. It is on the side of the hill so there were lovely views across the countryside to Cardigan Bay, and with low light pollution the stars were stunning (ideal for astrophotography). The Prosecco, dressing gowns and slippers were a lovely touch, thank you.

It would be very useful to have instructions on the appliances, and any improvements to the potholes leading to the farm would be appreciated but did not detract from the enjoyment of our holiday. A clear indication of the drop down of the step from the bedroom area is a must, which can be quite dangerous, especially if you are carrying something.

The track road in places may be a little bumpy to up to the cottage, but worth it to get to this idyllic location. The cottage itself inside is modern, comfortable and has everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. It's a perfect base for trips out, but also ideal to just stay in and enjoy the amenities, serenity, tranquility and the most stunning views this property has to offer. Owen and Lola are great hosts and are there if you need them, but respect your privacy at the same time. We would 100% recommend Ty Coch and are hoping to return soon to this beautiful setting.
