The Lleyn Peninsula, the arm in the Irish Sea extends some 30 miles west from Snowdonia in North West Wales and is no more than 8 miles wide, giving easy access to the contrasting north and south coast. The area was designated an area of outstanding natural beauty (ANOB) in 1956, and due to the remoteness of the area it has remained unspoilt.
