The property

The Quarterdeck is a charming holiday home situated in the picturesque village of Borth-y-Gest, Gwynedd, near the Afon Glaslyn and Eryri National Park.

Boasting spectacular harbour views from its elevated position, this pet-friendly retreat offers up-to-date amenities and is perfect for families or groups of friends seeking a coastal escape in Wales.

Upon entering the property, you will find a ground-floor double bedroom with access to a jack-and-jill bathroom, providing a convenient layout for families or friends.

The heart of the home is the open-plan living space, with a kitchen fully equipped for all your culinary needs.

Here, you can gather around the dining table and share meals while discussing the day's adventures.

After dinner, retire to the sitting area, where a Smart TV awaits for intimate movie nights in.

From here, you can enjoy views over the harbour and distant mountains, adding a touch of calmness to your stay.

Invite the outside in with the bi-fold doors, leading you out to the enclosed garden with decking and multiple levels, complete with furniture, and is the perfect spot for alfresco dining or simply relaxing with a good book.

From this vantage point, you can soak up the stunning views and watch as the boats bob gently in Borth y Gest Bay.

Climb the fuzzy stairs to discover another double bedroom with views of the harbour, a neat twin room, and a bunk room with more pleasing views of the harbour, all tastefully decorated and ready to provide a serene night's rest.

The property boasts two bathrooms, one on the ground floor and both with baths and showers ensuring there is ample space for everyone to prepare for the day ahead.

Whether you decide to explore by foot, cycle, or car, there are numerous attractions on your doorstep ready to be discovered.

Make the most of your coastal location by paying a visit to Portmeirion - a quirky Italianate village designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, offering beautiful architecture, woodland walks, and stunning views over Cardigan Bay.

The Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways promise a delightful day out, with its traditional steam engine journey weaving through the spectacular mountainous scenery.

For a day filled with sun, sand and sea, head to the pristine shores of Borth-y-Gest beach, a truly idyllic piece of coastline or perhaps partake in bird watching at the estuary.

At the end of your day, refuel at The Port café Deli & Restaurant, where you can savour delicious home-cooked food in an informal, friendly environment.

Whatever your heart's desire, The Quarterdeck in Borth-y-Gest provides a delightful home base from which to explore everything this enchanting corner of North Wales has to offer.

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.
