The bustling harbour town of Porthmadog lies on the Glaslyn Estuary and enjoys a stunning setting.

The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk or drive from the town. The well known and unique Italianate village of Portmeirion is just down the coast. Situated on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula, Portmeirion, famous as the location of the TV show The Prisoner and the final episode of Cold Feet, is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and woodlands. The area also boasts castles at Criccieth and Harlech, and superb unspoilt beaches such as Black Rock Sands, where the sands stretch as far as the eye can see.

    Well equipped and superbly clean. Steep stairs and missing a bath but we knew that before we booked. We really enjoyed our stay and the lovely views over the bay.
