Carn Fadryn Hillfort:
Approximately 10 minutes drive from the site is the popular and well known Carn Fadryn Hillfort. It is sometimes known as Carn Fadrun or Garn Fadryn and is a five-hectare Iron Age hillfort. It lies in the centre of the Llŷn Peninsula, Gwynedd, and overlooks the village of Garnfadryn, Wales. Rising to 371 metres above sea level (1218 feet) the hill provides wide views across the surprisingly hilly peninsula and is a relatively easy, climb for those looking for something different to do during their stay.
Bardsey Island:
If you enjoy a bit of history, then you will not want to miss heading over to Bardsey Island, or the 'home of the 20,000 Saints'. There is a passenger ferry from Porth Meudwy and Pwllheli but crossings are weather dependant.
Fishing:
We offer free on-site carp fishing for all our guests. Contact the site direct if you would like more information on this.
Beaches:
There are a number of beautiful beaches close to our wonderful site:
Porthdinllaen Beach (approx 15 minutes drive from site)
The quaint fishing village of Porthdinllaen is perched on a beautiful stretch of sandy beach. Let the kids paddle in the ocean and look for crabs. Keep an eye out for the amazing marine wildlife or take advantage of the sheltered bay which is ideal for boating, kayaking, swimming, and snorkelling.
Porth Oer Beach (otherwise known as The Whistling Sands), is owned by the National Trust and is one of the finest beaches in Wales. Listen closely and see if you can hear the whistling/peculiar high pitched squeal sound when you walk along the sand. The sand particles rub together in a way that produces an unusual noise. Porth Oer is a secluded beach set in a small bay approximately 20 minutes from site.
Pubs:
The Ty Coch Inn is officially on the Top 10 list for beach bars in the World so is a must do if you're looking for a bite to eat or a nice drink after a long day out exploring. Please note: they are open for limited hours over the Winter.
