Incredible views!

This holiday home is in such an amazing little spot. The view from the lounge is just stunning and we loved watching the tides come and go, along with the various different sea birds. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, well equipped, and Michelle was really helpful, and quick to answer messages. The Festiniog railway is 5 minutes walk away. The town is also really close. We can highly recommend Cariad Gelato! We loved exploring the Llyn Peninsula and even saw dolphins in the sea at Aberdaron. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Excellent experience from beginning to end.

As a former owner of a VRBO property, I value communication as much as I value the property itself. The owners were responsive, attentive and thorough from the very beginning. The property is delightful and the view and location simply can't be beat! I have nothing but praise. Thanks for a magical and easy vacation.

Midweek Early Autumn stay

The first thing that catches your attention when you enter the apartment is the stunning "picture view" of the estuary from the living room. The flat is clean & tastefully decorated. A good base for exploring the region & of course the Steam Train is really close. Michele gave some good advice on where to go etc in her emails & in the booklet in the flat. A really relaxing midweek break for my wife and myself

Absolute gem of a stay

My schoolfriend and I from yesteryear planned a weekend in North Wales as a get-together. We found this lovely place and looked forward to our time away. We were not disappointed. I have rarely stayed (and I travel a lot!) in such a well-appointed, well thought-out, comfortable 'pad'. The owners clearly take pride in maintaining the property and there really wasn't anything that we needed that we couldn't find. The location right on the waterfront was absolutely charming (even in the howling winds of Storm Kathleen - April '24). The Festinniog railway is a few minutes walk away and we enjoyed a fabulous train ride up into the hills. We also visited Bangor, Black Rock Sands and Beddgelert by car and walked to Portmeirion. Loved this little place and were very impressed by the care and communication of the owners.

Lovely central location with beautiful views over the harbour to watch the tides come and go. The apartment is cozy and well equipped. Only issue was the need to provide towels which is difficult for travellers with limited luggage space. Im sure this could be easily fixed. Would definitely stay here again. So close to the railway station and a range of trips on a steam train which we enjoyed.

Good location for Ffestiniog railway and Port Merrion

I think the dull sky in March didn't help and the railway wasn't yet open for the season. Overall though a nice few days away. Comfortable bed, lovely sitting room to watch the sea birds. Kitchen well equipped to cook a meal but we found a couple of good restaurants which are mentioned in the information given.

Pleasant waterside property

Very good location. Nice views over the water, walks round the town and harbour, and easy for scenic drives round the Llyn peninsular. Clean and well appointed house, and the hosts could not have done any more to make the stay more enjoyable.

Lovely short break in Porthmadog

The property is a lovely little find in Porthmadog. When you enter the house, the two bedrooms and bathroom are there on the ground floor but a short flight of stairs takes you to the living area which has the most wonderful view through a picture window of the estuary. We spent a lot of time just looking at this - tide in, tide out, swans, a heron who came each day and the way the view changed according to the weather. The adjoining kitchen area is well equipped and every thing is spotlessly clean. The bathroom is quite small but functional. The owner Michelle sent lots of information about the property and the surrounding area, recommending places to eat and to visit. The Ffestiniog Railway Station is literally yards away and worth booking. And we would definitely recommend the Good Mood restaurant at the yacht club across the river for a pizza!

Location and view 'wow'

A compact and very nice property with spectacular views across the harbour estuary. All well equipped with modern amenities and comfortable. Very convenient for the Ffestiniog Railway with the station and ticket office just nearby. Our short stay in July was marred by unseasonal cool and wet weather, but otherwise we enjoyed our visit.

Peaceful setting

The location of this property is perfect. I quick walk to the shops or a local pizza and the main high street and shops. Its also on the doorstep of the railway for days out. Its quiet at the property and theres lots to view. The rowing boats and birds feeding. The property is comfy and clean and a good size. Our little dog loves the balcony to sit on. You can sit and dine there. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and theres a local tesco to buy food. The lounge area is specious and the view is stunning. The bedrooms are downstairs and its very quiet at night. No traffic noises or pubs etc. Just perfect. Free Wi-Fi. Shower room. Entrance area to leave walking boots and coats. The Allocated parking space is very convenient. A great place to stay in port. Well worth it.
