We had a wonderful time at the Yard Cottage, the main aim was just to have a few days by the sea and enjoy the fresh air and nature. The location of the cottage allowed this and the walks along the beach were a daily source of enjoyment and pleasure.If you’re looking for a few days way from it all, I’d recommend this cottage. The hostess Kirsty was really very hospitable and made us feel more than welcome. We’re already talking about returning!

This is the perfect cosy cottage set in a beautiful location close to the beach. Kirsty couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful and made us feel very at home from the moment we arrived. The cottage is a perfect base to explore all the main attractions of North Wales and is the most beautiful setting to return back to at the end of the day, we were very lucky to enjoy some incredible sunsets. We couldn’t recommend highly enough, Yard Beach cottages has everything you could need while creating the perfect comfy cosy traditional Welsh cottage feel.

What a lovely, cosy cottage. Beautifully situated on a most gorgeous coastline, right next to a sandy (at low tide) beach. Kirsty makes you feel very welcomed, and has lots of great recommendations to keep you busy. Will visit again.
