A perfect place for six friends to hang out and renew old acquaintances. Even in November, with a week of decent weather, there were enough places of interest to visit nearby. Comfortable beds, modern showers, underfloor heating, welcome pack and great kitchen/dining facilities. Everything we wanted was there and we all enjoyed Gwelfryn as a base.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful house, very well equipped and in a great location. We used the National Trust carpark for EV car charging both in Aberdaron and in Whistling Sands (both free of charge).

We really enjoyed our stay in Gwelfren. We found the house to be really comfortable and peaceful, a lovely base in which to explore the Llyn Penninsula.
