The Lleyn
Peninsula is renowned for its beautiful beaches and water sports and
where the Welsh language and way of life still flourish. A
visit to the National Trust owned village of Porthdinllaen is a
must, one of the prettiest places in the whole of the U.K.
There are
also
good Golf Courses at Abersoch, Pwllheli, Nefyn and
Porthmadog.

Only 2.5 hours from Manchester, we are situated in the picturesque
village of Llangian with Post Office/shop and a 6th Century Church
lies a mile away. Llanengan village has a fine medieval church and a
country pub (delicious grub!) one and a half miles
away.
Both villages have a telephone kiosk.
|
|
The well known boating resort of Abersoch is only one mile away with
many national boating events taking place each year. The village
itself, although small, is well supplied with good eating places and
shops.

On the 50 mile heritage coast, mostly designated an area of
Outstanding Beauty and Environmentally Sensitive Area, are
nineteen sandy beaches (three having the European Blue Flag status).
The South facing Porth Ceiriad is sheltered by high cliffs and
interesting rock formations. Easterly winds can be
avoided at Porthoer with its "Whistling Sands" and rocky pools.
Porth Neigwl
has a three mile beach, popular with walkers, surfers as well as sun
bathers.

|
The
novice or experienced sports person will find plenty to do in the
area. Choose from the Abersoch 18 hole golf course, pony trekking
and riding, shooting and archery, cycling, fishing or
walking. The district offers facilities for all forms of water sports. For the more
serious walker, the Snowdonia National Park is only 13 miles
from Pwllheli. Pwllheli itself has a well equipped Leisure Centre.

 |
 |
St. Tudwal’s Islands, Half Tide Rocks or Bardsey Island have their
large colony of seals which is well worth a visit on one of the
pleasure boats which take people out. |
