The Tŷ Coch Inn is considered arguably the best pub in Wales and is officially one of the top ten beach bars in the world.
Tŷ Coch Inn is situated in the tranquil village of Porthdinllaen near Morfa Nefyn on the north coast of the Llŷn Peninsula. The building was constructed in 1823 from red brick imported from Holland and first served as a vicarage. Then in 1842, the vicar's former housekeeper, Catherine Ellis, opened a pub. For a long time Tŷ Coch Inn was in competition with other pubs on the beach, but it is the only one to survive to this day. You can especially enjoy food and drinks on the terrace, from which you have a wonderful view over the beach to the sea. Here you feel like you are at the end of the world.
