Abersoch has been a holiday destination in my family for generations. My dad took me there when I was very small, to all the places his dad took him. Once upon a time (all those years ago!) Abersoch was a very small and not all that well known fishing village with quite a nice beach and that was about it. My grandparents used to go there as they had a sailing boat and this was their favourite place to take it. I don't believe it has changed in terms of it being a small village as it only has a small convenience store, a few surfing shops, a couple of pubs and some restaurants. However the picture painted of a somewhat small, quiet village is vastly untrue ...  Read the complete review

It's great to be able to write a review on something you know inside out because it means you don't have to any websites or double check anything! I'm hoping this will be really fun to write so I hope it's useful for people and encourages people to visit! Abersoch seems to have become a destination for the North of England's wealthiest families these days. It's a small surf village on the Llyn Peninsular in North Wales where personalised registration plates are seen on every other car, guys wear shorts all year round and hundreds of teenage girls wear hoodies with denim skirts. Abersoch has recently been seen in the E4 show 'On the Edge' about rich teenagers ...  Read the complete review

Abersoch is located on the Llyn peninsular of beautiful North Wales. Abersoch is the hub of the tourist scene on the Llyn peninsular and differs greatly from the surrounding villages of the peninsular. It has become an extremely popular holiday destination mostly due to its world famous sailing waters. Abersoch is now attracting a trendy crowd, the new scene will not however necessarily appeal to the usual visitors to the peninsular. The village is a hive of activity whose population swells by thousands in the summer season thanks to the large holiday parks and second home owners. High street in Abersoch would not look out of ...  Read the complete review

I've just got back from a few days away with my ladies, and Abersoch was our destination of choice. I have been before, my friend's family is lucky enough to own a holiday home in The Warren, so I certainly knew what to expect. Abersoch is located just around the corner from Pwllheli, but is certainly the more desirable destination, in my opinion. We drove from Chester, and it usually takes around 3 hours with a lunch stop somewhere along the welsh coast. The drive itself is beautiful, and we like to make a day of it and visit as many places along the way as we can. As I said, we stayed in The Warren, so I can't really advise on other options, but ...  Read the complete review

Abersoch, seven miles on from Pwllheli along the North Welsh Llyn peninsula is originally a fishing village but have now turned into a fairly high-faultin' beach resort. I have not been to Abersoch in the low season, but even in June many of the houses seemed locked up, and I suspect from the late autumn to early spring it would feel like a ghost town. In the summer it caters to a large number of visitors with its B&Bs, caravan parks and a mix of decent (but not particularly cheap) eateries. Abersoch has an air of what can be described as self-consciously cool relaxation: tanned young men in flip-flops and low-sitting, long shorts, ...  Read the complete review
