The best cottages near the beach

Aberdaron beach is always welcoming to visitors. It can get very crowded near the town and the baths, but if you move away from this you can see the whole beach almost to yourself. The waves are usually friendly, so it's a great place for bodyboarding or paddleboarding. Around the beach, the local shops are handy for cooling off with delicious ice creams, pizzas and chips or any other snacks you fancy.
