Fall head over heels for the seaside scenery, windswept cliff-top walks and hidden coves of the Llyn Peninsula surrounding this captivating coastal getaway, perfect for families keen to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with their four-pawed pal.

Your coastal surroundings never feel far in the charming kitchen; lose yourself in mountain views as you whip up some tasty treats and fill your top dog's water bowl. Your pup won't be able to resist snoozing beside the roaring wood burner in the dining room as you enjoy your creations with a glass of something chilled gathered around the dining table. Unwind weary walking muscles in the cosy lounge after wrapping up little paws in their special blanket at your feet. The king-size bedroom, which features a projector and pull-down screen, offers an oasis of calm to retire to, whilst the double bedroom and twin bedroom boast a truly peaceful ambience that ensures a dreamy rest. If you've got plenty of energy left, have a ball in the games room or enjoy your favourite tipple in the outdoor heated bar area with some fabulous melting sunsets as your backdrop. No energy, then take a dip in the hot tub. Private parking is offered for three to four cars.

Four-legged friends will go mutts for this peaceful spot on the beautiful Llyn Peninsula, with plenty of interesting new smells to discover along the endless walks around the countryside and coastline beginning from the doorstep. Take the lead to the Porth Meudwy coastal walk from Aberdaron 5 miles away to Porth Meudwy 6 miles away to be rewarded with breath taking sea views and plenty of sticks to fetch at Porth Meudwy Cove (seasonal restrictions apply). Boasting stunning views across Cardigan Bay, explore the historic lower woodland of Plas yn Rhiw manor house (3 miles) before resting tired paws in the courtyard of the fabulous tearoom.

The cottage is in a delightful area of North Wales. The 3 bedrooms, housed the 3 pairs of adults comfortably. The 3 dogs love the fully enclosed garden. The hot tub was the focal point and well needed after the walk up Snowdon. We all had a relaxing and chilled time in Pen Goppa.

We had a lovely week staying at Pen Goppa. The garden was perfect for our 3 dogs as it was very secure. The house was very comfortable and well equipped but would probably feel small for 6 people as the kitchen was quite tiny and the double bedrooms not that large.

We had a wonderful stay at Pen Goppa over the New Year period. We were greeted with a wonderful hamper of drinks and food. The house was in a great location for access to all nearby Villages. The hot tub was a great addition during the colder weather. I would highly recommend staying here if you are thinking of visiting the area!

We really enjoyed our stay at Pen Goppa. The cottage itself was lovely and comfortable and suited our needs for the week with our 3 dogs. I am not sure if there were 6 adults there would be quite enough room, there is only 1 bathroom and the kitchen is quite small if you planned to cook. The garden was beautiful and has amazing views, a lovely peaRead moreceful spot. Hide

The cottage is spacious and atmospheric. It feels remote but is just a few miles away from pubs and other facilities to stop one feeling isolated. The garden is attractive and secure - our dog loved it.

Location superb, secluded private garden which the kids loved for hide n seek. Rooms were comfortable and facilities good. Some of the storage areas could do with a bit of a sort and tidy. But didnt effect our stay and already looking for next year

Lovely quirky house that is dog friendly. Our dog loved playing hide and seek in the private garden. Hot tub was privately located and was excellent but we couldnt use it for the first couple of days as it hadnt been set up for us. Games room was fun and appreciated by all of our party. Outdoor bar area and BBQ were a bit tired and could do wiRead moreth a bit of TLC. Comfortable beds, plenty of space, dog friendly. The projector in the double room cant be used in bed unless you sleep the wrong way around as the screen is at the head of the bed. Lovely living room area. Property is located centrally so great for the beaches only a short drive away, but is on the corner of a 60mph road so at times there is traffic noise and you need to be careful if you walk out from the house. Plenty of parking spaces. Overall we had a great time and would be tempted to return. Hide

I really wanted to rate this property 1 !!! Simply to stop anyone else from booking here! I have to say it was perfect though and rate it 5 all round! We had the most wonderful few days and could have stopped longer if possible! But that wretched work business gets in the way. From the moment we walked in everything seemed just right. The beautifulRead more garden was enclosed and meant our two dogs , one of them a pup, could play outside to their hearts content, our dog hasnt moved since we got home, so worn out is he! The addition of the little games room is brilliant and we enjoyed darts and pool competitions between us. The kitchen is well equipped and everything was spotless. The lovely dining table was great for family game nights after a day at the beach! This is probably the nicest and best cottage we have stayed in and will hopefully return one day soon! Thank you to the owners for letting us stay Hide
