Please note the driveway to the house is a rough farm track, and not suitable for low-slung cars.

The Local Area
Based in the heart of the Llyn, there is easy access to the majority of the towns and beaches, all within a short drive of the cottage. The beaches on the south of the peninsula are larger beaches, including the likes of Black Rock Sands (20 minutes) Criccieth (15 minutes), Abererch (5 minutes) and Abersoch (15 minutes). Whilst on the north coast the beaches tend to be smaller and often hidden gems, sometimes requiring a walk to reach them, such as Porth Oew (Whistling sands), and Porthdinllaen with the famous Ty Coch pub at the end (a 10 minute drive away). A little further afield, you'll find Portmeirion, an Italianate village, Zip World with the world's fastest zip wire and the Llechwedd slate caverns.

Unique and charming cottage in a unique and charming location.
Lovely and well equipped cottage, far from the madding crowd. Although the house was warm with underfloor heating it was great to light the wood burning on the chilly evenings.
Everything about the place is perfect. The location is stunning and the cottage is beautiful comfortable and very well equipped. I would highly recommend we will definitely be returning.

A special location and cosy house

A very special cottage
We had a fantastic week staying in Otter Cottage. The surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful in equal measure. Our children loved playing in the garden and nearby stream, watching the wildlife and nature. The house is very cosy and well appointed. Lovely comfortable beds and always a ton of hot water - just what you need after a long day out on the beach or in the hills. What a perfect little place! We loved it! Please can we come back soon?!

Lovey quiet location
Lovey cottage in a quiet location.
The cottage had a well equipped kitchen. Nicely decorated throughout.
The internet was not great and you need an account with Amazon or alternative to use the smart TV .Fortunately we had taken some board games with us as there weren’t any in the house.

Fairytale cottage ….
What a beautiful cottage! We have just spent a lovely week enjoying the peace and quiet, the river, the wildlife, walks on the estate and the cows! The cottage is just right, has everything you need and more. Couldn’t fault it and hope to be back. We had lovely weather so the deckchairs were much appreciated! Sitting in the sun listening to the river was perfect. Good base for exploring the Llyn Peninsula. Excellent communication from Oyster Holiday Cootages and it was lovely to meet and chat to Chris too!
