This incredible Welsh rural wonder located on the stunning Llyn Peninsula is Grade II listed and has been renovated with contemporary style and exceptional attention to detail. Sleeping six in pure luxurious comfort, you will be amazed at the magical blend created. The atmospheric nods to the history of this magnificent building are intertwined with modern trends and a fantastic colour palette of soft greys, yellows and blues.
Botwnnog Coach House is located in the most tranquil, beautiful spot in the ground of Plas Gelliwig in Botwnnog, not far from Pwllheli. The Llyn Peninsula is known as ‘Snowdon’s arm’. It is a wildly beautiful peninsula with a rich culture and heritage, traditional farmsteads, little ports, stunning beaches and dramatic sea cliffs. Little wonder that this magnificent coast is a protected Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. You can enjoy some of it walking the Wales Coast Path.
Within the ancient walls of this fabulous holiday home, you will find a feast of objects d’art from around the world, imaginatively placed amongst exposed stonework and contemporary brilliance. Elegant wallpapered feature walls, a huge feature window and a modern floating staircase all catch your eye and you know that this home is really rather special. The open plan living space is bright and beautiful, illuminated by the feature window and huge glass doors opening to the garden. The garden views are incredible, a beautiful sight to wake up to. Contemporary sofas are placed perfectly to enjoy the vistas and the modern wood-burning stove, perfect for cool evenings. An original huge stone internal wall partially separates the kitchen and living areas. It adds charm and interest and the modern galley kitchen fits in perfectly. There are striking yellow pops and stunning tiles above the dazzling white cupboards and worksurfaces. From the trendy dining table, you will not only admire your delicious meal, you will also be awe of the exposed wall and the fabulous art and artefacts.
The architectural, open tread staircase takes you upstairs to the three well-appointed bedrooms. Feature walls decorated with modern wallpapers give personality to each room making each space feel special. You will find one bedroom with a huge glass door where you can enjoy the country views from your bed or pop out to a stone step, another with a dazzling ensuite bathroom and a charming twin with antique French beds. They all have their own charms. The shower room features an original stone fireplace as well as trendy metro tiles.
The gardens of Botwnnog Coach House are as stunning as the interior. You feel far, far away from it all and are likely to hear owls hooting and the low buzz of dragonflies over the pretty pond. You can see the circular pond from the living room with its central huge pillar. A fountain, ancient stone structures and the wonderful fire pit area all add interest and delight. With seating all around, the fire pit is a lovely evening spot where children will enjoy toasting marshmallows and you can all chat about your plans for the following day.
If you can drag yourselves away from this rural paradise, you will discover amazing beaches and glorious countryside. You may want to visit Caernarfon Castle, the Snowdonia National Park or Porthmadog for a day on the Welsh Highland steam railway. The choice is yours!

Location
About the surrounding area of Botwnnog Coach HouseLovers of the outdoors will adore this wonderful location on the Llyn Peninsula. The coast is a protected Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which is very clear to see. Botwnnog is a tranquil village away from the coast.
Aberdaron is Land’s End at its most idyllic. This historic fishing village was the last stop for pilgrims on the way to Ynys Enlli, Bardsey Island, the ‘Isle of 20000 Saints’ which is a National Nature Reserve famous for its birdlife. You can visit the National Trust’s new Porth y Swnt centre for an insight into the peninsula’s special landscapes, seascapes and rich cultural heritage. You will be blown away by the breathtaking coastal views from the Mynydd Mawr headland.
Abersoch is a gorgeous seaside resort with sailing and watersports. It boasts fine beaches, a lovely sheltered harbour, a buzzy bistro life and good attractions including pony trekking, boat trips and a delightful craft centre.
Another lovely seaside village is Llanbedrog. It has an Instagram worthy photogenic line of colourful beach huts and a superb beach. You will also find Oriel Plas Glyn-y-Weddw, a wonderful arts centre and gallery. You also need be camera ready at Porthdinllaen, the much photographed coastal hamlet brimming with quaint houses above a stunning half moon of golden sand. There is a lovely characterful waterfront pub. The village and beach are owned by the National Trust and access is by foot only. Next to Porthdinllaen on the north coast you will find Nefyn with its maritime museum, pretty harbour and a sweeping crescent of sand. Its headland golf course is incredible, not for the faint hearted.
The peninsula’s capital Pwllheli is a very busy seaside resort and busy market town. It boasts a popular sailing and watersports centre, a fantastic marina, art galleries and fantastic shops and restaurants.
If you want to head inland, Llithfaen is a quaint village set in a fascinating landscape. On Yr Eifl mountains you will find Tre’r Ceiri, an astonishingly well-preserved prehistoric village which was occupied until about 2000 years ago.

Region
Welcome to Snowdonia, the wild, beautiful wonderland tucked away in northwest Wales! This place is a total jackpot for nature lovers, adventure junkies and anyone in desperate need of a serene escape. Covering a whopping 823 square miles, Snowdonia National Park is like a giant, nature-themed quilt with stunning landscapes stitched together and dotted with soaring mountain peaks, zen-inducing lakes and ancient forests. Oliver’s Travels properties sprinkled across this captivating landscape include charming cottages and characterful farmhouses that will make your heart sing and turn your weary body into a puddle of relaxation.
The pièce de résistance of Snowdonia is none other than Mount Snowdon itself, the heavyweight champ of Wales and England. Standing tall at 3,560 feet, this mountain boasts panoramic views that will make your jaw drop. Nature enthusiasts enjoy hikes from the leisurely Llanberis Path to the hardcore Crib Goch Ridge while thrill-seekers can zipwire until their hearts are content. If you are not feeling the leg workout, you can hop on the Snowdon Mountain Railway for a scenic ride that will have you reaching the summit in style. Bala Lake is a water sports haven with sailing, windsurfing, kayaking and leisurely boat trips on offer.
Betws-y-Coed, the "Gateway to Snowdonia," is a village straight out of a fairy tale surrounded by lush woodlands and waterfalls. It is the perfect launchpad for your Snowdonia adventures, complete with charming shops and pubs that practically beg you to pop in for a pint. For a touch of magic, Betws-y-Coed’s Fairy Glen is a secret fairy hideout with mystical gorges, bubbling cascades and rocks covered in fairy-approved moss. You can take a stroll, have a picnic and let the enchantment wash over you. History buffs should get ready to geek out in Conwy, a medieval town dominated by the epic Conwy Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site that makes you think of a Game of Thrones set. You will wander through cobbled streets, explore castle nooks and soak in marvellous views. Portmeirion, a village straight out of an Italian daydream, courtesy of Sir Clough Williams-Ellis offers quirky buildings, subtropical gardens and spectacular views of the Dwyryd Estuary.
Snowdonia is a jackpot of nature wonders, historical stunners and villages straight out of fairy tales. Whether you are chasing mountain highs, lakeside tranquility or village enchantment, Snowdonia is amazing!

Best Suited For: All AgesFamily holidays are just brilliant at Botwnnog Coach House. The house is so comfortable, very spacious and the gardens are fantastic. The fire pit is very popular for cosy nights toasting marshmallows and watching the stars.
Close by you will find incredible beaches and many walking and cycling paths. The peninsula is stunningly beautiful and the perfect place for those loving the outdoors.
The peninsula’s capital town Pwllheli offers much entertainment. It boasts a Blue Flag beach and a fabulous watersports centre with a very modern marina. The National White Water Centre offers thrilling white water rafting and canoeing on the River Tryweryn. You need to be a confident swimmer. All children must be 10 years old or over on the Rafting Safari. For full and taster rafting sessions and canyoning children should be 12 years old. There are other courses for over 14’s and over 16’s. Canyoning is fantastic fun with scambling, sliding and swimming through the gorge. There is also a delightful woodland trail and cafe for the younger ones or those not brave enough!
The Glasfryn Parc Activity Centre in Pwllheli has more than 11 outdoor and indoor activities including go-karting, archery, crazy golf, watersports, segway, clay pigeon shooting, cable wakeboarding and indoor soft play. There is something for everyone at this terrific centre.
You can take some amazing boat trips from Pwllheli’s marina to enjoy the seals, seabirds and dolphins.
A wonderful family excursion is a visit to the royal fortress palace, Caernarfon Castle. It is recognised as one of the greatest buildings of the Middle Ages. On the banks of the River Seiont, the castle took 47 years to build. You can also visit Penarth Fawr which is an extremely well preserved house which gives a rare glimpse into how the Welsh gentry lived during the 15th century.
You can enjoy outstanding scenery, comfortable carriages and historic steam engines with the Welsh Highland Steam Railway. In the heart of Snowdonia, glorious coastlines, ancient oak woodlands, mountains, rivers and castles all beckon as you jump on the train, stepping back in time. There is a buffet service on the train while you enjoy the views, including the locally-brewed award-winning beers for the adults.

I would absolutely return
We absolutely loved the property. It had so many intricate features and such amazing interior design. The garden was also a lovely space for our dog to roam around. The fire pit provided an evenings entertainment, my son making s’mores for us all. I would absolutely return
