    “The cottage is very cosy, well equipped and comfortable.”

    It is in a very convenient position to explore this part of North Wales in all directions, especially as there are so many interesting and historic places to visit. We had a wonderful time and hope to return for another holiday. Thank you.

The property

This delightful, stone-built terraced cottage is set in the pretty seaside village of Borth-y-Gest on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales. This well-equipped character cottage is ideal for a romantic break or family holiday and offers cosy comfort with deep sofa, 2 armchairs, dining for four, king size double bed and two 3' single beds all with good light for bed-time reading.

There is a small enclosed front garden whilst at the back there are short steps leading to a sheltered garden - perfect for al fresco dining and relaxing with a good book.

A few more steps and gate lead to a grassy bank and woodland.

Just a short stroll from Llannor is the picturesque Borth-y-Gest harbour, the Wales Coastal Path and estuary headland offering breathtaking views.

Discover idyllic secret sandy coves and longer awe-inspiring stretches of unspoilt beaches including Samson's Bay and the epic Black Rock Sands.

The estuary teams with birdlife and is flanked by distant mountain scenery and the two historic castles of Criccieth and Harlech. This Borth-y-Gest cottage is the ideal base for exploring the Llyn Peninsula and Snowdonia National Park with ancient castles, historic treasure houses and botanic gardens.

Leave the car behind to discover Porthmadog's marina, the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland steam railways, the Italianate village of Portmeirion and myriad trails through ancient woodland.

Enjoy panoramic views from the top of 260m Moel-y-Gest over the seascape and the 18 hole Porthmadog links golf course.

For the adventurous at heart the thrills and spills of North Wales are close by, from deep cavern trampolining and the world's fastest zip wires to exhilarating mountain biking and white water rafting.

One week at this Borth-y-Gest cottage simply won't be long enough.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

BORTH-Y-GEST

Porthmadog 1.2 miles; Criccieth 6 miles.

Borth-y-Gest is a quiet Welsh seaside village of mainly Victorian houses retaining much charm and character. Located by the mouth of the River Glaslyn, and a short drive away from the Italian styled village of Portmeirion, this pretty Welsh village has stunning panoramic views over the sands and estuary to the historic Harlech Castle and the Snowdonia National Park beyond. This North Wales village has two bistros and a coffee lounge all located on the front overlooking the bay and all with dog-friendly outdoor seating areas; perfect places to while away the hours watching the comings and goings of the local boatmen. Borth-y-Gest, with its sheltered coves and sandy beaches, has walking in abundance; why not head up Moel-y-Gest or take a wander over the headland to the famous Black Rock Sands, or go a little further afield where the vast Snowdonia National Park awaits? For a day out you can take a trip on the famous Ffestiniog Steam Railway and Welsh Highland Railway from Porthmadog, only a 15 minutes' walk away, or for those with younger children why not visit the shorter but more child-focussed Welsh Highland Heritage Railway? For a day trip the entire Llyn Peninsula calls. With Anglesey within reach and the whole North Wales coast with the Wales Coast Path to be explored, Borth-y-Gest has it all: a quiet bolt hole but conveniently located for ease of access to this stunning area, a must at any time of the year.

Note: This property accepts a maximum of 4 guests including infants.
