Summary: This is the third time we have visited the property and every time we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
David k. Feb 15, 2025 02:29:41 PM
Summary: A very pleasant house, plenty of room, all facilities and a lovely view to the beach and sea Ideally placed for outings into Snowdonia and Llyn peninsula. A lot of steep steps coming into and out of the house was quite challenging for us oldsters
Edward Y. Sep 17, 2024 07:32:59 AM
Summary: Interactions with Melanie were prompt and helpful. Follow her Restaurant suggestions! Yr Hen Fecws was our favorite, followed by Y Sgwar. Ship Inn next door is very good and a nice local pub. Castel Deudraeth was good when we visited Port Merion. Not a fan of the Grapes. House has everything you need. Loved Borth y Gest; try a lunch at The Deli/Bar. Shopped at Tesco in Porthmadog. There are steps! But doable and much easier after a few days. Walk out the door and turn right, nice walk up the hill with views. Walk all the way on the Beach walk to Black Sands beach by the Golf Course; a highlight! This place is great!
