  • "We absolutely loved our stay at Ynata Cottage."

    It was comfortable and cosy with everything you needed at hand, comfy beds too. Such a great base to explore Northern Wales. The circular walk from the cottage across the cliff tops with amazing views over the bay was beautiful. Grabbing a lovely coffee at the little shipping container cafe at the beach to finish was a great way to start our mornings with our two dogs.

  • "This cottage is an absolute gem, in a lovely village created for quarrymen and fishermen in the 1800s."

    The cottage is very comfortable and very well presented. The decor is beautiful with quality furniture, kitchen equipment, TV etc. I can't fault anything about it and didn't want to leave. The front garden was ideal for our little dog. The bottle of wine was a very nice welcoming touch. There is everything you could need, including all doggy necessities including treats and a ball. Katherine was very attentive at the other end of the phone for anything we needed help with. Cant wait to go back.

  • "Ynata is a beautifully presented cottage where the owner had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and cosy."

    The decor curated by someone with a great eye for detail from cosy bedding and towels to the wonderful and some quirky artwork on the walls. The cottage is set in the tiny unchanged village of Trefor on the Llyn peninsula surrounded by lovely walks along the coastal path and two lovely beaches on its doorstep. Nefin and Morfa Nefin are a short drive away as is Pwllheli and Criccieth. A lovely relaxing break was had by all including our beautiful Golden Retriever. Thank you

    The cottage was exceptionally clean and tastefully decorated and furnished. We will definitely be using Y Nata again in the future.

  • "A very comfortable and well appointed cottage."

    Lovely walks from the front door to the harbour and small quiet beach. Good for our nervous dog! Pwllheli, Nefyn, Abersoch and Aberdaron all have lovely quiet (part dog friendly) beaches. The seating area adjoining the kitchen was a lovely place for us to have breakfast and dinner. The bedroom was very comfortable with lots of storage. The bathroom was well equipped with a good shower. In all we had a lovely relaxing stay.

  • "Ynata was a delightful place to stay, with many welcoming, thoughtful and practical touches that really elevated the experience above the “norm” and made for a lovely week."

    The highest quality of equipment & materials coupled with clever design throughout meant that despite highly active children and two large dogs, self catering was still a pleasurable and relaxing experience for all concerned. Everything required was there (and more) and somehow in a place you’d expect it to be. Coupled with a proactive and very helpful owner, we would highly recommend Ynata as a place for anyone looking to explore the Llyn Peninsula.

  • "Beautiful well equipped cottage with good quality furnishings and accessories in a perfect location."

    A newly renovated cottage in the centre of Trefor with just a short walk to the beach. We spent a week here and was extremely relaxed and rested in the comfortable cottage. Our dog also had a fantastic time too. The cottage is fully equipped to self cater with a lovely dining area in the kitchen. We even had the log burner on in May on one gloomy evening which were the best instructions we have had to use. We stay in North Wales at least three times per year and this has been the best cottage to date. Excellent communication also from the owner and can't wait to return.

  • "I loved my stay at Ynata, in Trefor Wales with my two children."

    The cottage was idyllic, with a handy little grocery store and pub nearby. It was lovely to get away from the hussle and bussle of our daily lives to this peaceful little town. My favourite part was chilling in the lovely cottage with my kids, which has a very modern intake with a twist of its original features. Anyone would be happy to spend a break in this lovely cottage/town. Well done to the owners X

    So clean and modern with such a welcoming feel. Clever heating system and the log fire meant that we were so cosy. It was like a boutique hotel. Great view of the granite peaks from the breakfast table and a short walk to gorgeously atmospheric beach. The people of the village were very friendly and there was a well stocked shop on the doorstep. Llŷn has won my heart and Ynata in Trefor is the perfect base to explore. Diolch am y bwthyn perffaith.

    Thank you for the welcome pack, very much appreciated. The cottage is exactly as described, slightly quirky at the back but with wonderful views.

The property

Located in the quaint village of Trefor, Gwynedd, is Ynata, a delightful, two-bedroom, former fisherman's cottage.

Set within a prime position, near both amenities and the beach, Ynata is a wonderful base for a seascape, inviting four guests and two furry companions.

Park up on the roadside or in the nearby public car park, or hop off the bus, which directly travels into Caernarfon, before travelling through the front garden, and into the entrance of the home; from here, admire the breath-taking mountain views within the area.

Be welcomed by the homely sitting room, featuring a characterful Inglenook fireplace with woodburning stove, plush seating, and a Smart TV for entertainment.

Continue through to the kitchen/diner, both sleek and well-equipped to ease your self-catered stay, home to an electric oven, induction hob, washing machine, and dishwasher.

After dining as a group and enjoying a film night in with a glass of wine, head upstairs to locate two well-appointed bedrooms, including a double and a twin (zip/link).

Both are serviced by a sleek shower room, where you can prepare for your day ahead.

On your doorstep you'll find a convenience store, a post office, Tafarn Y Tŵr pub, and the beach, along with many hiking routes, including Garn Fôr, possible to follow to reach Traeth Nefyn and the popular Clwb Golff Nefyn Golf Club.

Pwllheli Marina is also a popular area for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a plethora of opportunities to take to the water to try your hand at wakeboarding, jet skiing or windsurfing.

Criccieth is also home to a sweeping beach, where you can gather for a coastal walk, a delicious bag of fish and chips, and to sample to famous Cadwaladers ice cream.

Rerouting north, head for Portmeirion, an Italian-style village, brimming with boutique shops and eateries, historical landmarks, and beautiful gardens; within the area you'll also locate Traeth Glaslyn North Wales Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve, perfect for nature-filled walks and bird watching, closely set near the Snowdonia National Park in the Llŷn Peninsula (AONB).

A host of beauty spots are across the national park, offering the chance to summit Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) and explore Beddgelert Forest, or explore The Slate Caverns of Llechwedd and its bounce below attraction, whilst Abersoch, Caernarfon and Bangor are reachable by car, popular areas for tourism.

Book your next North Wales escape at Ynata.
