    “This was our second stay at No.”

    52. Having thoroughly enjoyed our first visit in 2024 not only did we book for November 2025, but we have already booked for 2026! Just as we did last time, we felt immediately at home when we arrived. It is smart, clean, warm and comfortable and, vital in November, a cosy place to return to after a bracing trip out. The views from the bedrooms are to be envied! Imagine waking up to those every day. Fairbourne itself has everything you could need; the sea; the views; the shop and food choices, ...

    52. Having thoroughly enjoyed our first visit in 2024 not only did we book for November 2025, but we have already booked for 2026! Just as we did last time, we felt immediately at home when we arrived. It is smart, clean, warm and comfortable and, vital in November, a cosy place to return to after a bracing trip out. The views from the bedrooms are to be envied! Imagine waking up to those every day. Fairbourne itself has everything you could need; the sea; the views; the shop and food choices, plus the road and rail links - it's a 5 minute walk to the station and the shops. So to say we're eagerly looking forward to our third visit next year is something of an understatement. It was a privilige to stay somewhere that is just like a home from home.

    - Ian, November 2025

    Ian, many thanks for your kind words about Hafod-y-Gors. We are glad that you enjoyed your stays there and are coming back again next year. You are right about the appeal of Fairbourne, and of having a warm and comfortable place to come back to after a day out by the seaside or up on the mountains. We have some more enhancements planned for the cottage this winter, and would welcome any suggestions for improving our guests' experience. Best wishes, Mark and Theresa. Property Owner

The property

Sitting within a quiet cul-de-sac in the desirable seaside village of Fairbourne, home to the much celebrated Fairbourne Steam Railway, Hafod-y-Gors offers the ultimate holiday home from which to discover both the delights of the countryside and coast of Wales.

A semi-detached bungalow with spectacular mountain views and a range of amenities just a short walk away, it's sure to be a holiday to remember with your loved ones.

Enjoy settling down each evening in front of the electric fire as you watch all your favourite shows on the television for a relaxing night in, the homely aura of the room bringing a sense of serenity, or for the avid twitcher, make your way into the plush second sitting room, where a sofa awaits you to settle down and make the most of your beautiful views and the nature that inhabits it, and enjoy watching the sun set with a glass of wine.

The kitchen offers all you could need for a week-long stay, modest but well-equipped, this stylish spot provides all the essentials for whipping up your favourite meals, the sunny dining room making the ultimate spot to come together and toast to a terrific holiday.

When it comes time to rest, choose from either a super-king-size bed conveniently doubling up as a twin on request, with views over the beautiful back garden and the wonder beyond, or the double room giving you easy access into the conservatory; each room offers a homely aura and a snug spot to rest each day.

Begin each day with either a relaxing bath or a refreshing shower in the gleaming bathroom, before soaking up the beauty of the area on the front lawn.

A short stroll will bring you to the centre of the village, where you can find all the shops you could need for a self-catered stay, as well as a bar and restaurant for celebrating any special occasions.

Enjoy a game of golf at the local course, before exploring the wonder of the historical landmark known as the Dragon's Teeth, resting amongst the family-friendly beach.

For a more relaxing day out, take a stroll along the Victorian Barmouth Railway Bridge and soak up the scenery of the Mawddach Estuary before exploring the excitement of The Dragon Theatre, a converted chapel where you can watch films and shows, as well as there being various events here throughout the year.

Be sure to venture into the National Park too, where you can experience mountain-top views like never before, the perfect challenge for the avid ambler, or take the train to the peak of Snowdon to experience the wonder from a different view.

Offering access to Portmeirion, Porthmadog, and much more, Hafod-y-Gors is the ultimate choice for your seaside escape to Wales.
