    “Very clean & well equipped cottage but being unable to control when the heating is on is a problem.”

    On arrival the cottage was cold as the heating wasn’t on. The next day I messaged the owner at 3.30pm to get the heating turned on & explained my husband was recovering from surgery so we would be in the cottage mid afternoon everyday, the heating was turned on but only this day, I don’t expect to be away in November begging for the heating to be put on every day before 4.30pm.

    Thank you for your constructive feedback The timing of the heating was adjusted to come on earlier as you requested and the cottage heats up quickly as it’s a modern electric system and the cottage was recently extended and renovated. There would have been no issue adjusting the heating again had you contacted us For additional instant heating there is also the option of the log burner Property Owner

A leisurely stroll along the river will take you to the Aberglaslyn Pass, one of North Wales’s most famous beauty spots. The Welsh Highland Steam Railway passes through the village on its journey from Porthmadog to Caernarfon.

From here, you can easily access Porthmadog, home to a Maritime Museum, the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, the Black Rock Llamas, and Porthmadog Golf Club, as well as Borth y Gest, where you can hike along the Beach Path, spend a day at the beach, and dine at the popular Black Rock Beach Club with stunning sea views, onwards to the Llyn Peninsula and beyond, this is an ideal location for a Welsh holiday.
