“Great place for a holiday for a family with dogs.”

The accommodation was spotless and very welcoming with all the comforts of home. The garden was secure with no worries for the dogs to get out. A great location for shopping and exploring North Wales. We have had a fantastic holiday, which has been helped by the lovely weather, and can highly recommend this property.

“3 Pensyflog Barns is in an ideal location to explore North Wales and also the local shops like Tesco, Aldi and Lidl were very close by for food shopping.”

We went to Blackrock Sands, Cricieth, Anglesey, Barmouth and lots of other places. Nearby is an Osprey Centre (Bywyd Gwyllt Glaslyn) this is well worth a visit, the volunteers for the charity do an amazing job and very informative. 3 Pensyflog Barns is a beautiful house, very comfortable, looking out to the hills / mountains at the back. The garden is secure for the dog too, with a gate at the top. The house sleeps up to 8 people, so there was enough seating downstairs for everybody. The kitchen had a kettle, toaster, coffee machine, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine/dryer. I couldn’t find a washing line to dry clothes while the sun was out. There is a small maiden, however this blew over. The kitchen needed another big pan, especially if you have 8 people to feed. There was only one big pan so had to improvise with the slow cook pot to keep things warm. There are lots of smaller pans. Plenty of cutlery, glasses, mugs plates and bowls etc. Upstairs there was one wardrobe to use in the main bedroom, with a couple of hangers. (the other wardrobe had a padlock around the handles) There were no wardrobes in any of the other bedrooms. The bathrooms were gorgeous, a rubber bath mat is needed in the bath as it’s slippery when having a shower. We had 2 very disappointed children as there was no PlayStation which was advertised on the details, they were really looking forward to playing on it in the evenings. Reading another review, they mentioned a welcome pack. There was no welcome pack, so after a long journey, we arrived looking forward to a cuppa to find an empty fridge! We’ve always had a welcome pack in every holiday home we’ve stayed in, so had to go and buy milk etc. Over all, it’s a beautiful house, in a great location, but it just needs a few things adding to make the stay easier and take the play station off the details to avoid upset children.

“The cottage was absolutely beautiful, clean well equipped.”

Shower head in the main bathroom was broken so had to use shower in the 3rd floor. We would highly recommend this cottage we loved everything about it.

“A beautiful holiday home, with everything you may need during your stay.”

Stunning views from the windows and a short walk into Porthmadog. We would certainly recommend 3 Pensyflog Barns as a holiday home to family and friends. Julie Johnson August 2023

“We were very impressed with the property and it was very close to the beach etc.”

The directions were good and the home felt welcoming, especially all the dog beds, which to our surprise, our tiny dog tried out! We had 3 teenagers with us, but because of the smart TVs and separate bathrooms, we all managed fine. We felt very looked after and all our expectations were met and exceeded. Everything was easy to use and we felt at home. The only issue we had was with the key safe. It is low down and wasn’t obvious that there was a reset button. We struggled to close it, but you helped us to resolve the issue and the neighbour was great. Thank you for a great holiday.

The property

Resting in the coastal town of Porthmadog, Gwynedd is 3 Pensyflog Barns, a delightful, four-bedroom cottage.

Within walking distance of the beach and a hub of amenities, whilst a car journey away from the Eryri National Park, 3 Pensyflog Barns offers a homely base with a contemporary feel, complete with flexible sleeping arrangements, an enclosed garden, and elevated countryside views.

Park up on the shared driveway and make your way, on foot, to your stone-fronted dwelling.

Be greeted by the well-equipped kitchen, complete with all the necessary appliances for a self-catered stay, where you can rustle up meals to be enjoyed around the formal dining table; on warmer days, set the patio table and dine alfresco with the sunshine above.

Retreat to the living/dining room to unwind after a busy day exploring North Wales, with plush seating to sink into and a Smart TV for entertainment.

Complete your nightly routine in either the sleek shower room, or indulge in a soak in the main bathroom, ahead of sloping off to sleep in one of four bedrooms on offer; select between a king-size with Smart TV and a bunk room on the first floor, and two further king-size bedrooms on the second floor, one which benefits from a Smart TV and PlayStation 4.

With plenty to see and do, 3 Pensyflog Barns is set conveniently near the Maritime Museum, Borth y Gest Beach, and the Black Rock Llamas attraction, along with a selection of cafes, convenience stores and pubs to take advantage of.

The stunning Black Rock Sands is the ultimate beach, with watersports, caves, rock pools, multi-coloured headlands, and a sandy seaside for building your sand castles with the little ones, this Site of Special Scientific Interest is sure to be a favourite amongst your group.

Be sure to pop into Y Sgwar, an award-winning, family-friendly restaurant; serving local and seasonal produce, you may want to book ahead, before tucking into a meal with your loved ones.

If you’re after a drink, make your way to The Australia, home of the Purple Moose Brewery and ideal for taste-testing some local ales; there’s even a good choice of bar food for when you get peckish.

For a stylish bar, ideal for any gin drinker, you can find The Golden Fleece Inn; another award winner, this bar is home to a beer garden for the sunnier months and another quality restaurant to dine at.

A truly unique day can be enjoyed at the Italianate village of Portmeirion, just a scenic drive away, known for its picture-perfect architecture and village design created by Welsh architect Clough Williams-Ellis.

Travel into the National Park to follow the wealth of walking trails and cycling routes in the region, aiming south towards the Harlech coastline, where you can also tour the local castle, stroll along the beach, and tour the Llanfair Slate Caverns.

Reroute north to discover the magnificent Caernarfon Castle, practise your swing at Caernarfon Golf Club, or enjoy a picnic at Gypsy Wood Park, with Anglesey and its abundance of attractions higher up.

All of this awaits at 3 Pensyflog Barns.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £450.
