World heritage site. Whilst not as well a kept secret as Benar Beach, it still has incredible sand dunes and a beach that stretched as far as the eye can see. Also the town of Harlech with it's incredible castle as also well worth a look.

Just a short 15 minute walk away. Take a stroll or leasurely bike ride along this stunning former railway line. Stop and have a picnic along the 7 mile stretch to Barmouth or through the wooded path to Dolgellau. Has to be one of the most idyllic trails in Britain.

Food scene
Great food and an intriguing indoor mini waterfall make this place a good gastropub experience. It is not very big though, so suggest early booking.
