“Good location for the Lleyn Peninsula.”

Cottage feels remote but is close to most facilities. Beautiful grounds and peaceful.

- Mr Wilson, September 2020
Mrs Ryder September 2020

“Talhenbont Hall and it's cottages are set in an idyllic spot.”

A real haven of peace and tranquillity. The walk along the river in the grounds was wonderful. We were very lucky to have blue skies and sunshine everyday which may have helped. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. Snowy the white peacock was an added bonus. Would thoroughly recommend.

“We had a wonderful time at Gardeners Cottage.”

The grounds are amazing and hosts Alicia and Paul were fantastic. Our girls loved the local wildlife. We’d love to stay again.

“We had a lovely visit to Talhenbont.”

When we arrived the cottage was immaculate and we had a warm welcome from Paul, the host. We loved exploring the estate and the river walk was most enjoyable. The estate being in the location it is meant there was plenty to do, either visiting Snowdonia or enjoying the many beaches on the Llyn peninsula.

Mrs Henderson July 2020

“A fantastic setting on the large estate.”

The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, we struggled slightly with the cooking equipment with four teenagers but the owners found us more pans for all the pasta! We thoroughly enjoyed the space which the house and grounds provided and it was an excellent base for exploring the peninsular. Lots of storage space for kit such as boards, bikes and boats and the conservatory area was a great drying room! The teenagers enjoyed a great afternoon at Dragon Raiders.
