A gorgeous, bright, and spacious house in the heart of the small village of Nefyn, this is the perfect base for the whole pack. Spread over three floors, there’s plenty of space for eight of you to kick back and relax along with two furry family members. With the beach less than 500 metres away and coastal walks galore, there’s plenty to keep everyone happy.

The period holiday property combines contemporary interiors with traditional features creating a warm, welcoming space. Relax in the lovely light living room on the comfy seating, with a wood burner the pups will want to snuggle up next to while the kids have a go on the electric keyboard. Cook up delicious meals and enjoy them in the kitchen/diner, with patio doors leading outside; there’s also a handy utility room and a shower room on the ground floor.

There are village amenities – shops, pubs, restaurants, and a post office – less than 200 metres from the front door, and you’ll find spectacular walks on the doorstep too. Grab the leads and head to the long, sandy bay less than 500 metres away and pick up the coastal path for stunning walks exploring the coast and headlands. For a spot of retail therapy, the trendy town of Abersoch is a 12-mile drive and Pwllheli is 7 miles away with yet more beautiful beaches, ideal for sailing and water sports.

We all had a most enjoyable family weekend at Glan Aber. A comfortable, roomy and clean house with all the facilities you would expect plus the added bonus of a beach hut! The location is also superb.

We spent a week with our children and grandchildren over half term and had a really lovely time. We especially appreciated the well equipped kitchen and utility room where we could dry off our coats and boots. The hot water system and good showers were also appreciated and the children loved the keyboard as they have all started to learn instrumRead moreents, with two grandchildren learning piano. Hide

House is lovely perfect for a family holiday with pets. The garden was a bonus for us with children and a dog. Parking states 2 cars but we managed to get 3 behind the gate with a little jiggery-pokery of the outside seating, the roads are busy for parking so definitely needed this. Location is good 15 mins max walking to nefyn beach (shortcut if yRead moreou turn right over the road and up little path) beach cafe is lovely nice cakes and ice creams etc. Children loved the beach hut, got chairs etc but we took two higher fold chairs the ones in hut are low. We took the coastal walk to morfa nefyn and Porthdinllaen which was lovely for a day out, few stops on the way for refreshments and views. We enjoyed going to Penllech beach and hells mouth beach both no facilities but the the beaches are fantastic and 20-30 mins away. My husband used to holiday at Nefyn and Morfa Nefyn when he was a child so this holiday was a reminisce for him Being on holiday with our family in lovely accommodation with beautiful beaches nearby definitely made this holiday and would recommend this accommodation to anyone and possibly go back ourselves.

The perfect place for a family group of mixed generations - child friendly but also everything for adults too including games etc. Jabba the beach hut is great - very well equipped with chairs, stove, pots and pans, windbreaks, body boards - on a safe, clean beach. We would definitely recommend this holiday accommodation. Everything you need is in Read morethe village including a very well-stocked Spar shop, pub, cafes, access to the coastal path, bus services.

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
