Yr Hen Felin is within easy reach of Tŷ Coch - the pub on the beach, the dramatic coastline of the Llŷn Peninsula, the old market town of Pwllheli and the varied and memorable delights of Snowdonia.
The castles of the bygone Welsh Princes and Portmeirion village of the renowned 'Prisoner' cult series and wonderful Italianate architecture are only a short drive away. These can be enjoyed at any time of the year.
There are numerous coves and beaches, either to sunbathe, swim or explore, within close proximity.
Good restaurants, pubs and the local wine bar 'The Ship' @ Edern is only 100 metres away. Leave your car and walk to and from the Ship. Your hosts are more than happy to suggest great walks, where to visit and where to enjoy the tastiest local meal. They have substantial local knowledge and information, and are pleased to offer guidance to help and enjoy either the local area or the National Park.

Also new from late 2006 extra accommodation in the form of a semi self-catering basis has been provided with Y Stiwdio - 'The Studio'. It is situated directly next door to Yr Hen Felin (The Old Mill) and was once part of the original water mill. Back in the early 1960's a local sea skipper, namely Captain Will Roberts sympathetically renovated the structure. The architect of the time incorporated the large beams and random slate flooring into the newly re-modelled building. Whilst these features are evident throughout the property we have endeavoured to integrate modern day living such as heating and showers into the house and we feel that the period style has been carefully maintained throughout.
