About this property
The property is halfway between Morfa Nefyn and Nefyn, hidden away in a small hamlet overlooking a pretty duck pond. Surrounded by scenic mountains and just a few mins walk from the coastal path and beech. 2 Sea View Cottage offers an idyllic retreat for families wanting to escape to the North Wales coast, as well as being under an hour’s drive from the Eryri National Park (Snowdonia). After a day of coastal walks, look forward to unwinding in the sitting room, home to a traditional décor, this room makes a lovely spot to wind down each evening or gather round the dining table and enjoy a delicious feast, prepared in the galley kitchen that comes equipped with a selection of appliances including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge. Seek comfort in one of the delightful bedrooms, with a double and adult bunk on offer, both neutrally styled and served by a bathroom with bath and shower over, so you can decide how best to prepare for the day. Spend some time out at the front, taking in your surroundings whilst enjoying a picnic at the bench, before feeding the ducks and geese the leftovers of lunch. The town of Nefyn makes a superb holiday base all year round, hosing a good selection of shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants, as well as its own sandy dog-friendly beach, with idyllic rock pools to explore as well as being sheltered by the stunning Nefyn Headland, opening up miles of picturesque walking routes. Brush up on local history at the Llŷn Maritime Museum before enjoying some traditional fish and chips whilst strolling along the beachfront. The golden beaches of both Abersoch and Pwllheli are within easy reach too, the first being extremely popular with families for its safe swimming and variety of watersports, while slightly further afield you can find the charming town of Porthmadog, home to even more eateries offering something for every taste, as well as a station for the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, a must-see for the keen trainspotter offering a different way to absorb the unspoilt surroundings. 2 Sea View Cottage makes a fantastic touring base for exploring so many coastal and countryside attractions.

The town offers sweeping cliffs with the famous golf club striking off the headlands, providing a dramatic 26 hole course, while there are also two fine stretches of sandy beach, popular with families.

Easy access down road or public footpaths to the beach and local amenities. Grounds are kept immaculately with a lovely big pond and seating. Owners very accommodating. Will be returning.

The bed is very comfortable and the cottage is well equipped. The sun rises directly behind the cottage and sets directly in front of it. It's a 5 minute walk to the coastal path which has stunning views. We tried the Indian restaurant, the local chippy and had a very nice kebab... all very nice.

The cottage was dusty. The kitchen needed a good clean. You have to move the rubbish bin to be able to stack the dishwasher!I found remnants of breakfast cereal under the sofa! The bathroom was cleanish but the floor was very dusty. The seal on the shower door was broken. The bed linen was ok but one of the pillow cases was marked with black streaks. Towels were small. The chest of drawers in the main bedroom only had one empty drawer. The windows were dirty inside and out. Instruction booklets for microwave, cooker etc were not evident. I eventually found the booklets hidden in a drawer in the kitchen. No instructions as to what to do with general rubbish and recycling. The cottage is in a lovely position and very near the beach but needs to be to be throughly cleaned before guests arrive.
