“Gorgeous cottage and area, I had a lovely week here and would love to return, wish it was my home!”

I particularly liked how homely and comfortable it felt with the tasteful, quality decoration and furnishings and well equipped kitchen. I’m a fan of good lighting and there are lots of lighting options! The garden area is beautiful, even at this time of year and it’s lovely to sit in the conservatory. The road is quite busy but the cottage is well insulated so road or neighbour noise not an issue at all for me, was very peaceful. Lovely wood burner fire, so relaxing. Owners were ...

Owners were helpful and responsive in trying to sort an issue with the TV, which offers free access to subscription services. Good wi fi signal as it’s direct to the property.

“Absolutely lovely stay at this beautiful cottage.”

Ruth August 2024

“This was a fantastic little cottage, well maintained and looked after.”

The path down to the river was also well maintained,so well done. The beds were very comfortable, the rooms were fabulously decorated. Plenty of towels. The size of the tv was a hit with the kids. I absolutely loved the seating area in the conservatory and the garden was special. Shame about the weather. The instructions given were informative and helpful. Complimentary welsh cakes and tea and coffee too. The only negative is the late book in I found that 5pm was late and we were waiting around. Although the 11 am check out was fine. All in all we had a great break and hopefully we will book again. Thank you.

- Ruth, August 2024

Thank you for the wonderful review. So glad you enjoyed the cottage, it really means a lot to us. We agree that an earlier checkin time would be preferable, but our conscientious management team are very busy on Fridays and need a little extra time to ensure the best service for guests. We hope that the 11am checkout compensated a little. Bea and Den Property Owner

“The cottage was lovely.”

Everything you need , very comfortable. The garden was very nice and the conservatory was lovely to sit in and watch the world go by. Great parking space which I always look for. The river space was great to have picnics .

Lee July 2024

“We have had a lovely stay at the cottage, it is spotlessly clean, well equipped and ideally located to explore the Peninsula.”

There is also the beautiful garden area to sit in on sunny afternoons which is very quiet and peaceful. Plenty of easy parking space too with a little garden to sit by the river further along. There are some walks from the door but we went out most days to the hills and coastline for walks and to enjoy a couple of days on some of the very beautiful beaches a short drive away. We also saw seals at Porth Dinllaen which was an added bonus and has a spectacular rocky coastline. Thank you for the Welsh cakes/milk etc on arrival, most welcoming.

- Lee, July 2024

Thank you so much for the great review. Glad you enjoyed the cottage and the beautiful Llyn Peninsula. Bea and Den Property Owner
Adrienne June 2024

“We had a wonderful stay at this cottage.”

It had everything you could wish for including a gorgeous garden and a lovely conservatory to sit in. We even enjoyed listening to the rain on the roof on the one night we had rain. It was spotlessly clean on arrival and we much appreciated the milk and Welsh cakes. The furniture and beds we're really comfortable. Don't be put off by the parking being 50 yards away, it's really not an issue as you can have a walk by the lovely river garden when you park up before going to the cottage. The cottage is ideally placed to tour around the Lleyn Peninsula and we would highly recommend Llanbedrog beach to just sit and watch the world go by... especially if you had the weather we had! We hope to revisit again in the near future.

- Adrienne, June 2024

Thank you for such a great review. It means a lot to us that you enjoyed the cottage and the area. Bea and Den Property Owner
Roger June 2024

“We really enjoyed our short stay at Bwthyn Y Felin.”

The arrangements were good and it was easy to find and access. The cottage is spacious and very attractively furnished. The kitchen is easy to use and the living room and conservatory both very comfortable. The bed we used was comfortable and the bathroom well-appointed. The location is ideal for exploring the Lleyn Peninsula, with its beautiful beaches. We would recommend staying here.

Sean February 2024

“We had a lovely last minute break at Bwthyn Y Felin.”

The property was in a beautiful location and was very comfortable. It was lovely to find the basics already provided (tea, coffee, sugar) and a well equipped kitchen. The log burner was fantastic at warming us back up after a full day in the elements. We had a great time. Would definitely consider staying here again. Thank you

Sharon December 2023

“Beautifully decorated, well equipped cottage.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bwthyn Y Felin. We loved listening to the sound of the river nearby from the bedroom at night (only with the window open) and it was great to revisit the Llyn peninsula and stay in an area we’d not previosly visited.

- Sharon, December 2023

So glad you enjoyed Christmas at the cottage, thank you for the lovely review B and D Property Owner

Lynne October 2023

“Have stayed in quite a few self catering propertys over past few years - this is by far the best.”

Beautifully appointed property and garden. Really can’t fault it and we will be booking again next year. From the comfy beds to the underfloor heated bathroom , the stove , the furniture , a beautiful conservatory and many lovely pictures and ornaments. Ideal location for exploring the Llyn too. Highly recommend!

Joanna September 2023

“This is a gorgeous property in a lovely location.”

It has a lovely garden, although I was unfortunately not able to benefit from this due to the weather. The conservatory is a great place to sit and read on a rainy day. The cottage was clean and comfortable and the location very quiet but also handy for seeing nearby place. Would definitely recommend.

- Joanna, September 2023
Jeanne September 2023

“We had such a nice stay at this lovely cottage.”

It does not look like much from the outside but as soon as you go inside you are blown away. Everything was clean, well thought out and really nicely decorated, especially all of downstairs. The small conservatory is perfect for rainy days and cosy evenings. We never go to the same place on holiday twice as we like to see different places, but this is 1 cottage & host we would use again, this certainly sets the bar high.

- Jeanne, September 2023

Thank you for this lovely review. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the cottage. B and D Property Owner
Anne September 2023

“As soon as we entered the cottage we felt at home.”

A lot of thought has been put into making it a very comfortable place to stay with lots of little extra touches. The kitchen is very well equipped with all good quality kitchenware and a good seating area where we ate most nights, We also used the conservatory every night and the garden was a lovely place to sit and enjoy the hot weather we had all week. We were out walking every day so it was lovely to come back and relax in such a comfortable cottage and it is in a good position for exploring the area. We would have no hesitation in returning or recommending to others

- Anne, September 2023

Thank you so much for the great review. Glad you enjoyed your stay. B and D Property Owner
Adrienne August 2023

“What a cosy perfectly equipped cottage!”

A well positioned little home and lovely to return to from days out to the many beaches and attractions in the area, from the Llyn to Anglesey and the mountains. Sumptuous beds meant comfortable nights. We loved the peaceful conservatory and garden and the option of a seating spot by the lovely stream. Weather mixed as you'd expect, so was nice to rest at the cottage until rainy days cleared. We loved it.

- Adrienne, August 2023

Thank you for a great review. So pleased you enjoyed your time at the cottage. B and D Property Owner
Viv July 2023

“This is a special place.”

The artwork on the walls, the fossil collection, the meandering garden - totally beautiful. On a more prosaic level, all the small things that make life easy were there from clothes pegs to logs for the fire. I enjoyed reading in the conservatory in peace while the tv was on. It’s also in an excellent location for visiting the area. This mattered because the weather was uneven and small children need to be occupied!

- Viv, July 2023

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Very pleased that you enjoyed your stay. B and D Property Owner
Anita June 2023

“We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely little gem of a cottage, so much so that after being out all day we were happy to cook in every night and then relax in the conservatory and look out onto the garden with a glass of wine.”

It was so peaceful, clean and tastefully decorated and we had everything we needed and more. Would love to come back in the autumn and use the wood burner as I'm sure the lounge would be very cosy too. The surrounding beaches, coastal paths and scenery are superb for walkers and those of us who prefer to holiday away from hustle and bustle.

- Anita, June 2023

Thank you for your lovely review. We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay. B and D Property Owner
Di June 2023

“The cottage was lovely, clean and had everything you could need and more.”

The garden was lovely and the conservatory! Enjoyed sitting outdoors listening to the river behind the cottage and the birds! Would have been helpful to have more instructions on how to get to it from the Midlands. Close to many beaches on the Llyn Peninsula. We loved it!

- Di, June 2023
Sara May 2023

Dennis March 2023

“Beautiful cottage with a beautiful garden.”

We had a wonderful long weekend, the cottage was spotlessly clean, tidy, tastefully decorated with good furniture and lovely comfortable beds. Really warm and cosy. The weather was really good as well. Lovely and peaceful with just the river sounds. In a wonderful location, really close for visiting the rest of the Llyn Peninsula. Would definitely recommend and would love to return for a longer stay.

- Dennis, March 2023
Linda March 2023

“This is one of the nicest cottages we have ever occupied.”

It was equipped to a very high standard with quality furnishings. We loved the garden and the conservatory and will return at a warmer time of thr year to get more benefit from the out-door areas.The owner demonstrated taste and creativity in the interior decor,lighting and pictures and ornaments. It was more like someones home than a holday rental. We plan to return.

- Linda, March 2023
Kerry February 2023

“Gorgeous high spec cottage, spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated with good quality furnishings and kitchenware.”

Really cosy and comfortable, all facilities that you would need for a self catering holiday and more! Stunning outdoor garden and conservatory, lovely log burner and in a great location to explore the area. Would definitely recommend.

- Kerry, February 2023
Sarah January 2023

“Me and my partner spent two nights at the cottage during our short weekend break.”

It was everything that we hoped it would be and more! The property was clean, cosy and beautifully decorated. The facilities were brilliant and we were even able to watch Netflix as it was already installed on the TV. We cannot wait to stay at the property again!

- Sarah, January 2023

Thank you very much for your lovely review. So glad you enjoyed the cottage Property Owner

Christine September 2022

“We had a lovely holiday this cottage is so well equipt & comfortable the beds are so comfortable.”

We loved sitting in the conservatory & the lovely garden with all the beautiful flowers in bloom & the sound of the flowing water from the river we hope to return.

- Christine, September 2022

Enjoyed the garden and made the most of the beaches in great weather

- Lesley, August 2022
Helen August 2022

“A beautiful, well maintained cottage with everything you could wish for including very comfy beds and useful gadgets.”

The cottage has a fabulous garden from which the river can be heard, very relaxing along with the buzzing of the bees attracted to the lovely flowers. We all had a great holiday and hope to return again next year.

- Helen, August 2022
Paul August 2022

“The cottage was wonderful, really well located in that it was close to lots of attractions but in a nice quiet location so we didn't get disturbed in the evenings.”

The facilities were great and it really felt like home for a week. We had an excellent time, would definitely recommend and will be back!

- Paul, August 2022
Clare August 2022

“Absolutely stunning house and beautiful garden - perfect for reading in the sun!”

The owners have clearly put a huge amount of effort and investment into the property and it was a pleasure to have it as our home away from home for the week. The main living room is wonderfully cosy but remained nice and cool on some of the hottest days of the year! The conservatory and garden are fabulous and the beds are really comfortable! The immediate area is incredibly quiet and peaceful and I loved the sound of the small river at the bottom of the garden! The house is very well provisioned in terms of power sockets and tech, and the Wi-Fi is mega fast! Having a washing machine and dishwasher was super useful as well! Will definitely be back again!

- Clare, August 2022

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. So glad you enjoyed the house and garden. Property Owner
Neil June 2022

“Excellent comfy and cosy property.”

All rooms excellent and beds so comfy. Only downside was loose toilet seat. Garden a real plus with three separate seating areas. Loved our stay!

- Neil, June 2022

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Sorry about the toilet seat, now fixed. Property Owner
John June 2022

Shirley May 2022

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a beautiful well appointed cottage with everything we could possibly want.”

The lovely garden and conservatory was an added bonus and we enjoyed both when the weather was fine. We will definitely return at some point as it is streaks ahead of any cottage we have stayed in before.

- Shirley, May 2022
Astrid April 2022

“We loved staying in this cottage.”

It was exactly like the pictures on line. We loved the conservatory which was lovely and warm to sit in in the afternoons. A very comfy cosy cottage.

- Astrid, April 2022
Lesley February 2022

“Comfortable, well equipped, fire a lovely feature especially as we had some stormy weather.”

Good spot within easy reach of good beaches and local beauty spots

- Lesley, February 2022
Jonathan October 2021

“Great location, the cottage is in a secluded position and provides everything you need to have a quite break away but also within easy travelling distance to areas of interest.”

On a clear night the night sky is stunning and adds to the ambience, the garden provides all you need to enjoy yourself both in the daylight and twilight hours.

The property

Pwllheli 4.1 miles.

Nestled on the outskirts of Y Ffôr, near to the busy market town of Pwllheli, sits Bwthyn Y Felin, a mid-terrace and former mill workers' cottage.

Sleeping up to four guests, Bwthyn Y Felin is ideal for couples and friends seeking a countryside escape.

The cottage sits on a country lane with private parking for two cars.

After a busy day exploring, a charming living room welcomes you with a woodburning stove, two armchairs and a sofa, equipped with a Smart TV, books and games for a relaxing afternoon.

The contemporary kitchen/diner is a pleasant setting for rustling up your favourite dishes; it provides a fridge/freezer, an electric oven and hob, and a dining table for four, ideal for family dinners.

Whatever the weather, the conservatory offers a sanctuary overlooking the garden for socialising or reading.

Heading upstairs, you will find two double bedrooms, decorated with soft colours for a peaceful setting and with plenty of storage space for your belongings.

The bathroom contains a bath with shower over, a single basin with a mirror above and under floor heating where you can prepare for your day in style.

Bwthyn Y Felin boasts a beautiful, enclosed gravel garden with plenty of seating areas to enjoy warm evenings, dining alfresco or quietly taking in the rural surroundings.

If you’re hoping to explore the Llyn Peninsula, Bwthyn Y Felin is the perfect base, and is a short drive or walk away from the local convenience store, and a short drive to a traditional Welsh pub.

For more shops, pubs and restaurants, Pwllheli is located just south of the cottage, a quaint seaside town renowned for its stunning scenery, coastal walks, watersports and wildlife, such as seals, seabirds and dolphins.

A little further east, you will find the town of Criccieth with sparkling sea views and plenty of historical sites to visit, such as Criccieth castle, Penarth Fawr, a medieval hall house, and the holy site of St Cybi’s Well.

Abersoch is well worth a trip to explore the end of Llyn Peninsula, which is a bustling seaside resort offering boat trips along the stunning coastline to other islands, an abundance of cafes, and is a popular choice for annual events such as music festivals.

Bwthyn Y Felin is the ideal setting for getting together with friends and enjoying the best of the Llyn Peninsula.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
