    “Beautiful location, stunning views accross the harbour, great location for shops and eateries and good for small dogs.”

    The only drawback is the bed, to be fair we knew this when we booked. Whilst the sofa bed is ok, we cpukd just not get a good night sleep. Maybe if your young or single its fine, but for any couple in our 50s we both ended up with a bad back. This is a real shame, because with a bit of thought a standard double bed would fit. If you pull the sofa towards the TV, there is space for the dining table behind it, both making use of tje stunning view. Then shuffle a few things around a bit and a bed ...

Then shuffle a few things around a bit and a bed woukd fit beside the bathroom. Overall it was amazing, clean and well priced, but the bed challenge would stop us booking again.

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.
