Ty Reciever is a character cottage nestled in the heart of the pretty coastal town of Nefyn, Gwynedd. Just a short walk from a range of shops and pubs, and a little further to a sandy beach, this character dwelling invites families and their canine companions for a special stay on the north coast of the Llyn Peninsula. Step inside and discover the sitting room, where you can kick back after a long day and ponder on the next adventure, all while the woodburning stove crackles in the background.

Whisk away upstairs and make yourself comfortable in the bedroom, choosing from a king-size or a double, before freshening up in the family bathroom. To the outside of Ty Receiver is a small rear garden where you can enjoy a morning cup of tea whilst pondering on the day ahead. The town of Nefyn makes a great holiday base at any time of the year, offering a selection of shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants, as well as its own sandy dog-friendly beach, with wonderful rockpools to explore as well as being sheltered by the beautiful Nefyn Headland making a fantastic walking route.

It's very dark and cosy, which for December was great. It's tucked away without a drive, but we found the on road parking to be absolutely fine. We really enjoyed reading about the property's history, which was included as part of the welcome information. We appreciated the firewood for the first fire, and the sparkling wine in the fridge was a nice touch. There is a well stocked Spar down the road, and it is very close to some stunning beach walks. Communication with the owner was great when we couldn't find the immersion switch for the hot water - friendly and very helpful. If you are considering this cottage, though, know that you will need to bring *everything* with you. There was one toilet roll, one tea towel, one bin liner for the small kitchen bin, no hand soap, no hair dryer (not great to discover that right before a brisk beach walk in December!), no heater in either of the bedrooms. The single tea towel quickly became smelly because there is no central heating so therefore no radiator to dry it on. Many holiday lets we have stayed in have everything you need to make it a home from home - this isn't one of those properties, so just bear that in mind. Finally, for dog owners: the garden is not connected to the cottage. It is totally separate, so letting your dog out for a wee before bed or in the middle of the night isn't an option - you'll need to put their lead on and take them out. Overall a very cosy cottage full of character and history, it just needs a bit more attention to detail.

Be aware that the garden is separate to the house, down a side alley, and it was padlocked during our October stay. So, not ideal for dog owners staying out of season. Cottage had everything we needed but it would have been nice to have salt, washing up liquid, more than 1 loo roll, and maybe a hand soap provided. The little things make a big difference. We would stay again though as it's perfectly placed for gorgeous beaches and coast path, and we had a really nice time.

Nefyn is a beautiful place with wonderful views from a nearby footpath that leads to the beach. Delicious pastries at the beach cafe. Friendly pub just up the road and two nearby well stocked shops. Also, the area is paradise for 4 legged waggy tail family members. We had the best time and will definitely be returning.
