The Experience

This charming whitewashed cottage is one of five on the Wern Estate, on the edge of Snowdonia National Park. You cook in the farmhouse kitchen and dine in the conservatory looking out over the gardens.

Snuggle next to the wood-burner in the sitting room with a book or play games – this is a great place to get away from it all.  Pick your own herbs from the garden, enjoy a barbecue on the patio when it’s balmy. Immerse yourself into the hot tub under the stars before bed, or book a private session in the sauna – a ten-minute walk or short drive.

A pretty stream runs alongside the house, and at the back there’s a secret garden with inspiring views across a private lake to the surrounding hills of the Llyn Peninsula. Walk to the beach at Black Rock Sands in 40 minutes, explore the nearby seaside towns of Criccieth and Porthmadog and have a fascinating day out at Portmeirion, designed in the style of an Italian village (a seven-mile drive).

Reviews

David, Bedford

We enjoyed our week at Pont Faen very much. The weather was poor, with lots of rain, but it was lovely to return to the cosiness of the warm cottage and to be able to use the washing machine and tumble drier after a day out. Although Pont Faen is isolated, it is within easy reach of many of Snowdonia's attractions with beautiful scenery: forests, mountains, and beaches, as well as castles and other places of interest. We had a lovely relaxing week.


Stephen, West Kirkby

Great few days away last minute. Incredibly peaceful. Lovely cottage in a lovely setting with everything you could hope for. Would have liked to have explored the estate more but weather wasn’t great, good location to explore the peninsula.


Michaela, London

This was a beautiful cottage hidden deep in the heart of the Welsh countryside. Spotlessly clean, with fabulous amenities, the cottage was cosy and welcoming, with fantastic furnishings and décor. Nothing was too much trouble for the hosts and the hot tub was a lovely treat. Cannot recommend highly enough, the perfect place to get away from it all and relax.


Stephen, Altincham

Super service and a beautiful cottage. Looking forward to staying there again some time. Lots of lovely beaches to discover on the Lleyn Peninsula. And it’s ideally located for trips into Snowdonia.


Elena, Newark

We had a perfect relaxing stay in Pont Faen! We loved everything about the cottage - it’s private layout, well designed rooms, beautiful views. It had everything you need to cook a meal or BBQ, play a game, read a book or chill in a hot tub. Communication with our housekeeper was quick and efficient. Thank you Tamar, would definitely recommend Pont Faen cottage!


Location

The neighbourhood

The Llyn Peninsula is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Welsh Coast Path runs around it, passing coves, beaches, churches and the remains of Iron Age forts. The Victorian seaside resort of Criccieth, six minutes’ drive away, has the remains of a 13th-century castle, as well as independent shops and good restaurants – try Dylan’s, a seafood restaurant in an art deco building facing the sandy beach.

Local points of interest from Wern Holiday Cottages

  • 2000 Acre private rural Estate surrounded by oak woodlands. The gardens are lawned and private and you can fish sea-trout in the lake.
  • You can fish in our private lake at a very reasonable cost. Our lake has been stocked solely for the use of our guests.
  • Porthmadog, with it's marina and shops, is just 5 minutes away.
  • Black Rock Sands is a must - the beach is so vast that you can drive your car onto it. Perfect for dog walking, shell collecting, windsurfing or just having a good old run about.
  • Llanbedrog is a charming little seaside village with a superb beach and the most famous line of beach huts in North Wales. Visit the Oriel Plas Glyn Y Weddw Gallery for homemade cake and see David's (the owner of Y Boncyn) sculpture "Louise" in the garden.
  • You can enjoy our lovely eco-friendly wood fired hot tub whilst staying with us.
