“We found the holiday cottage perfect, it was in a very high standard when we arrived and everything that was listed was within the property, the location was easy to find and we found the views beautiful to look at it was quiet and peaceful everything we wanted and more, we highly recommend this accommodation for a short break.”

“This was our fourth visit to Oakley Wharf, however the first time to No 9.”

As to be expected we found the apartment clean, tidy and had sufficient seating . In the kitchen area there was no shortage of utensils , crockery or glassware. This is the first time we have been in accommodation where there has been a breakfast bar and we found it a refreshing change. The size of the bathroom was good , with in our opinion a very good walk in shower, the bathroom was only let down by having a broken chain on the sink plug. We were surprised when we initially opened the front door and saw a request to take our shoes off ( not mentioned in Sykes summary), which proved a little concerning, as pensioners we need supports in our shoes to walk, however we had slippers with us , which alleviated the problem to a certain extent. There is one further point that should be mentioned based on our experience of visiting many other rental accommodations and that is , the apparent lack of information on the appliances in the kitchen area, which we could not find it in the information pack. Whilst we list these points , you will always be compensated by the view through the patio window of the river , the harbour, boats and in the distance Eryri and that is the reason we keep returning to Oakley Wharf.

- Alec, August 2024

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay! It is indeed a lovely spot there. We will certainly look to get a new chain for the plug. In terms of the shoes, as you can imagine we get a lot of hikers in that part of the world and consequently have had some muddy carpets - so long as people leave the property as clean as they find it that works well for us . On instructions, we will take that on board. All instructions are generally available for all models on line but next time I am up there I can certainly look to drop off a paper copy for next season. We do hope we can welcome you there again and thanks again for the feedback . Property Owner

“We found 9 Oakley Wharf a comfortable apartment with good kitchen appliances, although we did not use the oven, microwave, hotplate or washing machine because we always ate out.”

I consider the landlord could save money if they turned down the temperature on the hot water immersion heater. We also discovered, on vacuuming before leaving two oars by the side of the wardrobe & a deflated blow up boat under the bed, not that we would have used it with the sea level, even at high tide, was a drop of 20 feet. .

- Herb, June 2024

Thanks for taking the time to feedback. It’s very helpful for us. I am pleased it was a comfortable stay for you. I am not sure how much adjustment we have on the immersion but we will check for sure. The boat and oars are just for the owner and family as we have pottered about on the harbour for many years (though we should add to the rules!). Thanks again for your time and we hope, above all, you enjoyed North Wales, which we love. Property Owner

The property

9 Oakley Wharf is a lovely and homely, two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment, tucked away in the bustling town of Porthmadog in Gwynedd.

Boasting a superb central location with stunning views over Porthmadog’s picturesque harbour and easy access to Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, this apartment is an ideal dwelling for couples, friends or a family of four who are looking to explore the scenic region of North Wales.

Step into the open-plan living space, where the chef of the group will have all they need in the well-equipped kitchen area to rustle up delicious meals.

Dine at the breakfast bar, table or savour your meal out on the patio area which offers exceptional views across the harbour, perfect for those wanting dinner with a view!

After a hearty meal, retire to the sofa where you can kick-back and relax in front of your favourite film, courtesy of the Smart TV.

When sleep calls, choose from two well-presented, there is a double bedroom and a twin room to choose from.

Awake from a leisurely slumber and prepare for the day in style with a refreshing shower, before heading out to explore.

You’ll have easy access to a wealth of amenities, including a well-stocked convenience store, supermarkets, and welcoming pubs and restaurants, all of which are within easy walking distance from your accommodation.

The train enthusiasts in your party will delight at the close proximity of the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Steam Railway, which offers scenic rides through rolling countryside, a truly unique way to see the sights!

Those seeking out the local wildlife will have found their haven with the Traeth Glaslyn North Wales Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve, where you can enjoy a leisurely stroll amongst nature.

Wander around the peaceful harbour where you can explore the delights of the Maritime Museum, savour fresh fish and chips or watch the world go by with a scrumptious ice cream from Cadwaladers.

Head over to the nearby village of Morfa Bychan, where you can test out your swing at the Porthmadog Golf Club, spend a day on the sands of Traeth y Greigddu or hike along the Craig Ddu which offers fabulous sea views.

The Italian village and gardens of Portmeirion are only a short drive (3 miles) away and well worth a visit, and the coastal towns of Harlech and Criccieth, with their medieval castles, are both reached within 10 miles (approx 20-minute drive).

Slightly further afield, discover the Llyn Peninsula: with many watersport opportunities at Abersoch and the quaint fishing village of Aberdaron.

With everything so close and so much to see and discover, this apartment provides the perfect base all year round.
