Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
If you're a keen birdwatcher, you'll love this home's location on the banks of Foryd Bay, a nature reserve in North Wales that sees huge numbers of different species migrate to the area for winter. However, even if your interest in wildlife is less obsessive, we're sure you'll still fall for the sweeping views of the Menai Strait and Snowdonia in the other direction. The cottage is certainly geared up for just sitting back and marvelling at nature, with huge windows in the living room, as well as a roof terrace and a hot tub in the enclosed garden facing the water for when the weather's more agreeable. When the sun's gone down, you'll find this home the epitome of cosiness, especially with the fireplace crackling away and the whole party snuggled up on the comfy sofas surrounding. Although you'll find the immediate surroundings beautifully tranquil, there's plenty of action nearby if you seek it. Dinas Beach is only ten minutes away in the car, while the world's fastest zip line can be enjoyed — or not — at Zip World Penrhyn Valley, just over half an hour's drive away.

About Gwynedd
Beaches and mountains, an optional hit of adrenaline and a good dose of Welsh culture – this is Gwynedd. And it’s great for all generations. Little ones will love the sandy beaches of the Llŷn Peninsula and the magnificent castles – Harlech and Caernarfon are particularly formidable. Teens can be kept busy with endless opportunities for watersports and outdoor adventure. There are zip wires, underground trampolines and even an inland surf...
