This cottage is very roomy, everything needed for preparing meals is there. Lovely views and location. The beach hut is a great extra too, allowing a whole uninterupted day at the beach.

We had a wonderful stay at Glan Aber- the house was spacious, uncluttered, clean and easy to live in with lots of room for 8 of us. The garden was great for the children (age 4 and 9 months) to play in too. The house was ideally located to explore all the surrounding area, but we spent most of our time on Nefyn beach and at Jabba the beach hut as wRead moree were lucky enough to have glorious weather! Short walk to the local shop and community pub came in handy. Hide

The property was on the main road going through Nefyn, and was perfect for our long weekend away. 5 adults and a dog were accommodated perfectly. Having an enclosed garden and a separate utility room with its own entrance was perfect for the dog! Great base for going out to nearby places. The house has a really well equipped kitchen, with a large tRead moreable which was great for family meals and board games. The lounge was cosy and plenty of space for us all. Hide

Very good property for a family holiday. A lot of space both inside and outside, and ideally placed to easily walk to shops, pubs, cafes, beach and coast path. Nefyn beach is terrific and great to have use of the beach hut
