Tyˆ Coch Inn, Ll yˆn Peninsula, Gwynedd*

Step out the door of this red-fronted pub, pint of beer in hand, and you’ll immediately feel golden sand beneath your boots. Only accessible on foot, Tyˆ Coch Inn nestles among the scenic cluster of buildings that make up the hamlet of Porth Dinllaen on the Llyˆn Peninsula, at the western tip of a curving bay of the same name. The Wales Coast Path treads right by the door. The inn offers spectacular views across the Irish Sea, and makes an ideal refreshment stop on a sevenmile circuit from Morfa Nefyn.
