Rhiw View United Kingdom

A rural escape in no mistake, this spacious, home-like self-catering property is nestled in the hillside of the Rhiw Mountains surrounded by endless green fields and large starry skies. Up to twenty-four guests can be accommodated across these two properties, hired together, with a range of amenities to cater for all from the practicality of two kitchens to the luxury of your own sauna.
Shared amongst the two properties is a timeless, authentic Welsh style, with vaulted ceilings, stone and brick feature walls and an abundance of nooks and cosy spaces to sit back and drink in the stunning views from sunny conservatories to panoramic window seated areas.  Feel the peace and tranquillity of the rural isolation, with the comfort of knowing you are still in walking distance of the local village pubs and amenities.
The property has two kitchens, complete with large farmhouse dining tables to enjoy a lively meal by the warmth of the log-burner.  Each kitchen is equipped with all you need with dishwashers, washing machines and crockery and wine glasses.  Whether you are catching up over a bottle of wine in the sitting rooms or cosied up with a book on a window seat, every angle allows for guests to look out to the stunning vistas of the Lleyn Peninsula.  
Rhiw View benefits from a number of spa-style touches offering deep relaxation.  Sweat it out in the property’s sauna, or soak in the bubbles of the spa bath found in one of the four poster king size bedrooms.  Spread across two wings, the bedrooms are divided into four super king/king bedrooms, three of which are en-suite, one including a bunk bed, two single beds and a further four single beds that can be zipped and linked to make super-kings on request.  With bed linen and towels included, the sleeping accommodation offers striking views, cosy interiors and modern bathrooms with roll-top baths and walk-in showers.
Outside the property benefits from a large expanse of private gardens including a football field and children’s play area to keep active kids busy for hours.  Enjoy an al fresco meal on the stone terrace, with outdoor seating aplenty and a BBQ to cook up a delicious lunch in the sunshine.
With the stunning local beaches just 3.5 miles away and the Llyn Peninsula Coastal path just three miles from the cottage, you are perfectly placed to get out and explore the breath-taking beauty this area has to offer.In this designated area of outstanding natural beauty there is much to see and explore, nestled between the country lanes of Bryncros and Sarn Mellteyrn.  A lovely short walk will take you to Sarn village where you can explore the local pottery on offer, enjoy a cake at the tea rooms or a drink or two at the welcoming pubs.
Just three miles away is Traeth Penllech, a glorious sandy beach on the north side of the peninsula with plenty of rock pools to go exploring in, and surfing available when conditions are right.  Aberdaron Beach is also well worth a visit, located in a pretty village complete with cafes, shops and two great pubs providing a charming coastal setting to enjoy a pint in the sunshine.
The Llyn Peninsula Coastal Path is three miles from your door and offers 84 miles of stunning coastline to explore or head up through the mountain range of Yr Eifl to survey the stunning view from the highest peak of the Peninsula.  We recommend a trip to the National Trust manor house Plas Yn Rhiw which has a stunning ornamental garden to potter through.  Take to the sea and catch a boat from Porth Meudwy to the beautiful Bardsley Island, a Dark Sky Sanctuary that boasts a wealth of wildlife, dramatic coastline and fascinating history, with even a small amount of accommodation to book a night stay there.
A trip into the Snowdonia national park is a must during your stay. Whether you are looking to climb the highest peaks or just take in the natural beauty of the National Park there is something for everyone.  We recommend the Llyn Cwellyn Boardwalk trail, an easy access lakeside walk that meanders between two soaring mountain peaks.  Drive a little further in and you will find Llyn Tegid, Wales’s largest natural lake, which is a popular place for paddle boarding, windsurfing and fishing, make sure you get permits booked prior to your visit.
If hiking isn’t your thing then why not hop on board the seasonal Snowdon Railway, surely one of the most picturesque train rides in the world, with stunning scenery and awe-inspiring views you can ride the rail right to the summit without any exertion needed!
Keen golfers will be spolit for choice with a number of excellent clubs and course available.  Abersoch Golf Club has an 18-hole course adjoining the beach, whilst Llyn Golf Centre has a fifteen-bay driving range and practise green and bunker.  Clwb Golf Pwllheli offers a part links and part parkland course with stunning south facing views of Cardigan Bay and Snowdonia.
History fans have a wealth of spectacular castles to explore, from the coastal Criccieth Castle perched on the rocky headland between two beaches, to the imposing Harlech Castle, a World Heritage site, with its rugged backdrop that dates back to 1283 and is accessed by a newly installed floating bridge that connects the castle with the visitors’ centre.
