“We had a great stay in Barmouth and this flat was in a great location for everything the town has to offer.”

The best thing about the accommodation was the fantastic view across the estuary. Would definitely return!

The best thing about the accommodation was the fantastic view across the estuary. Would definitely return!

- Catherine, August 2024

So pleased you enjoyed your stay. I really appreciated your patience and understanding regarding the challenge of getting the hob to work and I'm glad you got there eventually. I will be there to check things over next week and will arrange for someone to look at it too. It's only 2 years old so should of course be straightforward to use. I'm delighted to see that you'll be back! Best swishes, Jo Property Owner

“Perfect apartment with a beautiful view and easy access to all Barmouth has to offer.”

Loved it. Rich and Chris

Thanks so much for leaving a great review. So glad you enjoyed it and hope you’ll come again. Best wishes Jo Property Owner
Helen April 2024

“The property has one of the best views in Barmouth - looking over the harbour to Barmouth bridge and Cadair Idris.”

The flat is warm, comfortable and well equipped, with modern kitchen appliances, modern bathroom, and a very comfortable bed. Access is the only negative factor. It's through a back alleyway and up two flights of exterior steps. Luggage transfer wasn't simple! Once inside the flat, it's another world. It was a great base for a week's walking and I'd certainly choose to revisit.

- Helen, April 2024

Many thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I would love to do something about the access though sadly accept it’s the price we have to pay for the view. I’m delighted that you plan to re-visit in the future. Best wishes, Jo Property Owner
Keri April 2024

“Had a lovely weeks stay.”

To sit in window and admire the view of harbour was perfect..Flat was very homely and comfortable. Loved the walks with dog. Will defo return.

- Keri, April 2024

So pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for kindly taking the time to leave a lovely review. Look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Best wishes, Jo Property Owner
John April 2024

“Really enjoyed our stay the view from the living room window was all we could have asked for.”

The flat had all we needed and tastefully decorated. Will return again.

- John, April 2024

Hi Mr Brown, I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay and especially that you’ll return. Thanks for taking the time to leave such a positive review. Best wishes Jo Property Owner
Nicky March 2024

“This property was spotless, tastefully decorated and very cosy.”

Binoculars are provided to further enhance sitting in the window enjoying the view. We felt able to relax and enjoy Barmouth.

- Nicky, March 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a lovely review. So pleased you enjoyed your stay and very much hope to welcome you back in the future. Best wishes, Jo Property Owner
Jane March 2024

“Beautiful apartment.”

The fixtures and fittings are of such a high standard with beautiful paintings and pottery placed around the rooms. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect view and sitting in a warm and cozy room looking at that view is very special.

- Jane, March 2024

Thank you so much for the lovely review! I'm pleased you enjoyed your return visit, and very much hope to welcome you again. Best wishes, Jo Property Owner
Tim February 2024

“Just back from a week in harbour view.”

What can I say? If you like a view look no further. It’s the best view we’ve ever had. Very nice apartment with everything you need. Very handy for a dog friendly beach, the town and some wonderful walks. We love this area but first time in Barmouth. As previously mentioned the entrance is round the back and up the fire escape which would be a challenge if you have mobility issues perhaps. Once you open the door and spy that view it’s like another world.

- Tim, February 2024

So pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thanks for taking the time to share your valued feedback. Very much look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Kind regards jo Property Owner
Janine December 2023

“Absolutely fantastic views!”

I sat on the window at every opportunity watching the changing tides and weather. We stayed for Christmas and the apartment was clean and lovely decorated. The living room is comfortable as are the beds. The communication was excellent from the owner. I would recommend if your taking a dog that you check they will walk up metal fire escape stairs, ours wouldnt so had to be carried up them all

- Janine, December 2023

So pleased you had a lovely stay, especially being away for Christmas. Thanks too for highlighting the fact that some dogs are nervous of walking up the fire escape. Kind regards Jo Property Owner
Diane November 2023

“So grateful to have stayed at this hidden harbour view gem.”

You would never believe how perfect the accommodation is from the approach (which is via a narrow back alley, behind a row of shops and accessed by a metal fire escape) but please don’t let this put you off. As soon as you open the front door you can see how clean and tastefully decorated it is. The kitchen seems brand new and contains everything you might need. The main attraction is the view - such a cliche with this accommodation but you’ll spend most of your time sitting in the bay window looking at the water, the hills, wildlife, boats etc etc etc. The sun rises right in front of you, from behind the hills - such a privilege to see every clear morning. Must also mention the owner who is proactive, friendly and easy to contact. We had a wonderful time and would love to return one day.

- Diane, November 2023
Caroline October 2023

“The view was absolutely amazing.”

We could just sit in the window and watch the world go by. Communication with our host was excellent throughout our stay. Flat was in a top location.

- Caroline, October 2023
Kate October 2023

“Beautiful view, excellent apartment with everything you could possibly need.”

The one and only draw back is the rear entrance that is poorly lit and bedroom window could not be opened due to the fans from the restaurants below making it quite smelly.

- Kate, October 2023
Paul September 2023

“Absolutely beautiful place to stay the apartment & facilities were perfect ...”

Absolutely beautiful place to stay the apartment & facilities were perfect everything you needed was there for you, comfy bed, bathroom/shower kitchen appliances/utensils, dining area, comfy sofas well furnished & the view over the harbour & bridge stunning we’ve already booked to come back thank you Jo & also for getting the electrician out promptly when the outside light for the steps played up well impressed

- Paul, September 2023

Thanks for your lovely feedback. Delighted you enjoyed your stay and very much look forward to welcoming you back. Best wishes Jo Property Owner
Roma September 2023

“This must be the best location in Barmouth!”

! Despite the instructions we could not get the hob or cooker to operate. We didn't use the washer because there was no airer to dry the clothes. Apart from that the accommodation was fine.

- Roma, September 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to give me your feedback. I'm pleased you loved the view but disappointed that I couldn't help with getting the cooker and hob to work. I would have gladly arranged for our housekeeper to come round and assist, she's literally a stones throw away! Regarding the machine, it's a washer/dryer so clothes can be dried instantly or alternatively, the airer is housed to the side of the machine in the cupboard. Again, I am sorry that you didn't call me as I could have helped straight away. Kind regards, Jo Property Owner
Lynn August 2023

“We had a fantastic stay in this lovely apartment.”

It has been finished to a very high standard and had everything we needed. The finishing touches such as artwork and throws were exceptional. The view is really special and we spent many hours watching the boats coming and going. Excellent communication with owner just to confirm a couple of details. Thanks for a great holiday.

- Lynn, August 2023

Thank you for the lovely feedback Lynn. So pleased you had an enjoyable stay and I very much hope we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. Kind regards Jo Property Owner
Tom July 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay at the flat.”

It was a great location, the view was amazing and the flat was very well equipped. Only negatives were the entry which is down an alley which isn’t that nice and up some quite steep stairs. Also the main bedroom was a bit cramped, a bit too much furniture in there, so hard to move around. Only minor things though and wouldn’t put us off visiting again.

- Tom, July 2023

Thanks so much for taking the time to give us your feedback Tom. I fully appreciate what you say regarding the first impression via the steep fire escape. Though not the best start, it's wonderful to know it's worthwhile once you see that view! I agree too, the main bedroom is a little cramped and it's a real challenge to know how best to accommodate guests' needs for storage versus having too much in the small space. I might well decide to make it a one bedroomed apartment and turn the other room into a dressing room....food for thought. Thank you though, I completely agree. Best regards Jo Property Owner
Peter July 2023

“Fantastic holiday location , the view from the window of the harbour and Barmouth railway bridge is like you only find in films.”

The flat is clean and well equipped, parking nearby with the beach just over the road for those early morning and evening walks with the stunning mountains for a back drop. Cafe's ,pubs and eateries all within a stone's throw. The only care point is the access to the flat is via stairs at the rear of the building.

- Peter, July 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to give us feedback. I totally agree, it's a shame you have to access the flat via an alleyway and steep fire escape, albeit the view once in the flat makes it worthwhile. It's hard to find ways to enhance the entrance area so I try to focus on keeping it clean, sand free, (where possible), and as welcoming as I can. I very much hope we can look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Kind regards Jo Property Owner
Linda June 2023

“We had a lovely stay here the pictures of the property were as shown.”

It was lovely to sit in the window and people watch, watch people on boats and see the classes of paddle boarding. The flat is very well equipped and was spotlessly clean. We did have a problem with the tv and phoned the lady up within 20 mins someone was with us to sort it out can’t get better service than that. A great relaxing stay. Thank you

- Linda, June 2023

Dear Linda, Thank you so much for taking the time to send me your feedback, following your stay at Harbour view in June. I'm pleased we were able to sort out the issues with the tv etc. quite quickly and thank you too for your understanding and patience. I overmuch hope we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. Kind regards. Jo Property Owner
Karen April 2023

“A lovely flat in a superb location.”

The view is amazing and it is ideally situated for quick access to the beach shops pubs and restaurants.

- Karen, April 2023

Dear Karen, Thank you so much for your lovely review. It was good to have you back after your visit last September. I'm so sorry though that there were a couple of housekeeping issues, (addressed immediately with the cleaners), albeit you said that most areas were spotless. Sorry too that the main kitchen light fitting wasn't working and again, I'm very grateful that you allowed the electrician access to replace it. I very much hope you'll return again in the future. Kind regards Jo Property Owner
Jane March 2023

“Very comfortable, attractive and very well converted with excellent use of space and the focus being on the spectacular view.”

Particularly impressed by the art around the apartment be that paintings or ceramics. It felt like a special place to stay

- Jane, March 2023

Thank you Jane! I'm so pleased you liked the flat and had a comfortable stay. I very much intend to maintain the improvements and will endeavour to add a new fireplace over the winter months. I hope I can look forward to seeing you return in the future. Kind regards Jo Property Owner
Amanda March 2023

“We had a lovely weekend in Harbour View.”

The apartment is right in the centre of Barmouth with stunning views of the sea. The apartment is very comfortable and appointed to a high standard. The owner was very helpful recommending places to eat and returning a necklace to us that we thought was lost. We would definitely return in the future.

- Amanda, March 2023

Dear Amanda, Thank you for kindly submitting your feedback. I’m so pleased you enjoyed the weekend. The necklace should be with you early this week. Look forward to welcoming you back sometime in the future. Best wishes Jo Property Owner

The property

Flat 2 is a stylish duplex residence situated near the seaside in Barmouth, North Wales.

Flat 2 is a fantastic location for a small family's Welsh escape, since it is located over a harbourside restaurant and has views of the sea from its sitting area.

Climb the outdoor staircase to the second storey to find your new home-away-from-home, where you'll be greeted with an open-plan living room with everything you'll need for your getaway.

Take a seat on the couch in the sitting room and let the electric fire warm your toes while you watch a programme on the Smart TV; alternatively, relax in one of the sea-facing recliners and enjoy the views of the waterfront.

When you're hungry, make your way across the room to the kitchen, where you'll find all the appliances you'll need to prepare wonderful meals.

These meals may be enjoyed while discussing the day's events and planning your holiday itinerary at the neighbouring dining table!

As the day draws to a close, retire to one of the two bedrooms on the first floor, both of which are decorated in neutral tones.

Nearby is the beautiful bathroom, which is embellished with glossy tiling throughout and features a bathtub with a rainfall shower above it.

The apartment is in a fantastic location, with many of Barmouth's eateries practically on the doorstep, including the eatery below; the harbour is also near, where you can board a boat to Fairbourne or try your hand at crabbing; and the beach is pretty close, a great place to relax before visiting the local stores!

There are several treks nearby, including the Panorama Walk along with access to Barmouth Bridge, from where you can hike or bike over to the RSPB Mawddach Valley, then on to Fairbourne's excellent shingle beach.

Visit Harlech for additional seaside enjoyment, where you'll find another sandy beach, as well as the famed Harlech Castle and the Royal St. David's golf club.

Porthmadog, Portmeirion, and Dolgellau are also worth visiting and provide additional things to see and do, while Snowdonia's many outdoor havens are also waiting to be seen!

Choose Flat 2 for a fantastic stay along this stretch of the Welsh coast.
