Ty Gwyn

Perched above the shore in the Welsh village of Mynytho, this contemporary holiday home offers friends and family a stunning base from which to uncover the beauty of the Llyn Peninsula. A short trip brings you to Abersoch (3.5 miles), a stylish seaside spot known for its sheltered beach, independent shops, and excellent seafood restaurants.

Porth Neigwl (4 miles) offers dramatic scenery and great surf, while Llanbedrog Beach (1 mile) is ideal for family days out – with opportunities for paddling, kayaking, and beachcombing. For those who enjoy exploring on foot, the rolling hills around Mynytho provide fantastic walking routes with panoramic coastal vistas, including sights of the St Tudwal’s Islands.

Culture lovers can visit Plas Glyn y Weddw (2 miles), a wonderful gallery and cafe set within woodland. Open the gate and follow the approach down to this seaside home, which is set in an exceptional position with far-reaching ocean views.

Head inside and be greeted by a contemporary design that blends with homely comforts and boasts more panoramic vistas. Kick off your sandy shoes in the entrance hallway, then move through to the spacious and light-filled open-plan living space.

Featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, this beautiful room combines a sleek kitchen with a choice of dining spots and an elegant lounge – perfect for unwinding between days of coastal adventure. Find everything you need in the well-appointed corner kitchen for cooking up holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed at the long dining table set by the window or up at the breakfast island bar if numbers are low.

On sunny days, swing open the sliding doors to fill the space with fresh sea air, then move over to the main lounge to sink into the soft seating and savour the far-reaching views. For more relaxation, another lounge awaits on the lower ground floor, complete with a Smart TV and a bar area.
