  What a fabulous break, the most relaxed I’ve been in years.

  Lovely view from the huge glass window and patio. Surrounded by fields, peaceful and quiet. Lambs in the fields across were an added bonus, what a beautiful sight. The cottage itself is well presented, with a large comfy bed and the log fire is heavenly. We took provisions so we could at least have a cup of tea when we arrived, but there were tea bags, coffee, sugar, a bag of fresh ground coffee, milk, muesli, a loaf of bread, some Welsh cakes and a bottle of wine - what a lovely treat! Peter was about to great us, and kind enough to lend my husband a jacket, as he’d forgotten to take his own, in March. The hosts then made themselves scarce. Larry the dog was a sweetheart too. It was not too far to the beach and we walked there every day, it’s breathtaking. The whole peninsula was an outdoor lovers haven. We’ve recommended the Sail Loft to family and friends. And despite normally being someone who never goes to the same place twice, I’ve book at the Sail Loft later in the year, which I think speaks volumes about how much we loved it.

  We loved the location as it was easy to get to all the beautiful places on the Llyn Peninsula.

  The property was spacious and light however with just a couple of additions it could be so be so much better for guests mainly the kitchen area. There's absolutely no worktop space to prepare or put anything. Any flat surfaces are taken up with lovely (and expensive) ornaments but there's just way too many and they dont have any use. Coat hooks in the hall would be a nice touch along with a few more knives and forks in order to make and eat a meal. The garden is a large meadow but not enclosed and the patio isnt private which is stated on the description. The patio area is overlooked by the friendly owners and their dog as the accommodation was, up until a few years ago, the garage to their house. The sea views which are mentioned are quite hard to see as you have to look over another neighbours garden but the sunset is a real bonus! If the owners ever decide to make the few changes, particularly with regards to the kitchen, then we would definitely go back!

  100% would book The Sail Loft again!

  A great little place in a very quiet spot up the hill from the centre of Nefyn. We sadly didn't get good weather so spent more time inside than we'd have liked so a comfy sofa would have been an added bonus. A lovely welcome with a bottle of wine and Barra Brith (my favourite). If you intend on eating in you might want to take a few extra like a bigger frying pan, another saucepan and a good sharp knife. We had lots of things from camping the week previously so managed fine. It's clean, the bed is comfortable and the shower is fabulous. Plenty of very hot water! This a great year round retreat and base for your Welsh trip. Good walking routes on the doorstep, patio for sitting out and a log burning fire for cosy nights. Lovely friendly owners with a gorgeous labrador called Larry. We'll be back!

  What a wonderful cottage, with a superb location and views!

  It was perfect for us and the cottage was super cosy and we loved the traditional decor. It was clean, tidy and well kept. The Welsh Cakes and goody basket with the teas and Coffees was very kind and a nice touch. The farm is lovely and the owner so friendly and kind. If I could wave a magic wand, and it's a personal preference, to have a comfier mattress. I have a bad back and it was quite firm. On removing the sheets for check out, it was evident that perhaps the mattress had better days. The duvet had a small rip in and the comfy sofa was missing a middle leg at the front, so we had quite a shock on standing up as the sofa tipped forward quite drastically! Maybe something to look into? This wouldn't deter us coming back as it was the perfect holiday cottage otherwise and great value as well.

  We stayed for 3 nights with our dog and loved the bright, airy feel of the place.

  The dog loved all the outside space while we sat enjoying sunny evenings on the patio. Great walking to be had with Mount Nefyn and incredible views just a short walk away, and the coastal path to take you as far down the peninsula as you like. I didn't find the layout of the kitchen/diner/lounge very effective - preparing meals was a bit of a juggling act and the furniture was not very comfortable or welcoming. But for 3 nights it was fine. The bed was wonderfully big and comfortable. The fridge was not working when we arrived but the owners were quick to contact the neighbour who could let us into the main cottage to use that fridge. So it was a little inconvenient but at least quickly sorted.
