Porth Tocyn was bought by my grand-parents back in the late 1940s, believing that tourism would be "the thing" for the post war years, and that Abersoch in particular would take off as a resort. They were right. My grandmother had very clear ideas of what she wanted to achieve. Porth Tocyn was to become one of the first generation of "Country House Hotels" along with others like Sharrow Bay in the Lake District. The idea was to recreate inter-war country house living with good food and conviviality.
