    “An amazing place to stay.”

    We normally drive everywhere so it was great tonfind a central location that still feels quiet and secluded, so we could have a few glasses of wine and not worry about driving home from the bar or restaurant. The gated complex also felt secure because while not 100% secure, it was enough to stop people wandering past and kids accumulating. Given this was a ground floor room that was important. Evèyhtbing was clean and tidy and well equipped with everything you would want.

This welcoming apartment is perfect for a romantic break for couples or an outdoor activity holiday for friends or a small family in this wonderful seaside location.

There is secure parking close to the front door making access easier, and once inside you will find this to be a superb apartment offering good quality accommodation with a modern and light feel.

This wonderful apartment has spotlighting throughout, and a well-appointed open plan living area, which includes a fitted kitchen with solid slate worktops, a lovely sitting area with comfy sofas, one being a sofa bed for that extra guest, and French doors that open out to a courtyard, where you can enjoy a leisurely breakfast or late supper.

Both bedrooms are homely and well-appointed, with the main bedroom benefiting from a king-size double and the other room has a single bed.

The apartment is within walking distance of all the town's facilities, including shops, pubs, restaurants and the famous narrow gauge Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Steam Railways.

About the location

PORTHMADOG

Harlech 5 miles; Caernarfon 19 miles.

The bustling harbour town of Porthmadog lies on the Glaslyn Estuary and enjoys a stunning setting. The gateway to the Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog is full of individual shops and restaurants, and home to the Ffestiniog Railway and the Welsh Highland railway where you can travel by steam through spectacular Snowdonia scenery, to Blaenau Ffestiniog or Caerforn . The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk or drive from the town. The well known and unique Italianate village of Portmeirion is just down the coast. Situated on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula, Portmeirion, famous as the location of the TV show The Prisoner and the final episode of Cold Feet, is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and woodlands. The area also boasts castles at Criccieth and Harlech, and superb unspoilt beaches such as Black Rock Sands, where the sands stretch as far as the eye can see. Also within reach is the famous Zip World Slate Caverns and Bounce Below where you can get involved with a variety of activities including the thrilling zip wires and underground caverns to explore; there is something here to suit the whole family. An ideal location for the attractions of Snowdonia and the The Lleyn Peninsula.
