Bryn Canaid is a charming Grade-II listed traditional Welsh Crog Loft Cottage located in Uwchmynydd, near Aberdaron in Gwynedd, Wales. This delightful property accommodates up to three guests across two bedrooms and is nestled within the breathtaking Lleyn Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its prime location on National Trust land offers stunning vistas of the surrounding hills, mountains, and Bardsey Island, with the added bonus of views extending to the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland on clear days. The cottage is set against a backdrop of some of the darkest skies in the world, recognized by the International Dark Sky Association, making it an ideal spot for stargazing enthusiasts.
The area surrounding Bryn Canaid is rich in natural beauty and wildlife, with a green lane leading down to nearby cliffs and coves, adorned with wildflowers in spring and blackberries in autumn. Visitors can experience the sounds of pupping seals in early winter and the presence of migratory birds throughout the year, including the rare choughs that nest nearby. The historical significance of Bardsey Island, once home to a monastery and a site of pilgrimage celebrated by poet R.S. Thomas, adds a layer of cultural depth to the region, inviting guests to engage in contemplation and reflection.
Guests can enjoy a range of activities during their stay, with Porth Meudwy offering an inviting sea for swimming in the summer months and serving as the departure point for boat trips to Bardsey Island, weather permitting. The cottage features two off-road parking spaces, an external utility for bike storage, and a spacious lawned garden perfect for relaxing while taking in the panoramic views. Inside, the well-equipped kitchen/diner is ideal for preparing meals, which can be enjoyed at the dining table. The cozy sitting room, complete with a woodburning stove, provides a comfortable space for unwinding after a day of exploration.
For those seeking local amenities, Aberdaron is just a short distance away, where visitors can find convenience stores, dining options like Gwesty Ty Newydd, and the opportunity to enjoy fresh fish and chips on the beach. Adventurous guests can venture to Abersoch for golf, fresh seafood, and various watersports, while further excursions can take them to the popular beaches of Pwllheli and Criccieth, the latter known for its impressive castle and sea views. With its captivating surroundings and array of activities, Bryn Canaid promises an unforgettable stay in North Wales.
