Pwllheli is a small town with several cafés, pubs and restaurants, as well as a big supermarket (Asda), long sandy beach, promenade and marina.

In terms of tourism, Pwllheli is mostly overshadowed by nearby towns like Abersoch, Criccieth, and Porthmadog. However it offers plenty for people passing through or wanting a place for the night, and I feel the beach is very worthy of a detour!

Ty Coch Inn

Highlight • Beach

The pub is a little bit out of the way. But, it is well worth the effort.
The Tŷ Coch Inn is nestled in the village of Porthdinllaen near Morfa Nefyn, Gwynedd on the north coast of the LLŷn Peninsula.


With views across the Irish Sea towards Yr Eifl and a sandy beach on its doorstep, what better way to while away the hours?

Access to the pub is via bicycle and foot as vehicular access is for residents only.

Porth Dinllaen

Highlight • Beach

An old fishing village on the thin peninsula stretching out into the Irish Sea. Great views from the out and back road along the top.
The Yt Coch pub is on the seaside and a good stop on a road ride.

Porthdinllaen Bay

Highlight • Beach

A spectacular two-mile long sweep of sand in a sheltered, cresent bay and natural harbour on the Llyn Heritage Coast. There are toilets and refreshments at Morfa Nefyn. Nearby is the famous Ty Coch pub, at the top of the beach in Porthdinllaen.
