Rhydwenfa is ideally situated on a quiet street in the centre of the bustling Victorian harbour town of Porthmadog.

Porthmadog is located to the east of the popular Llyn Peninsular and adjacent west of the Snowdonia National Park in North West Wales. It is a popular tourist town with an impressive marina situated on the Glaslyn Estuary. Porthmadog is rich in maritime history and in times gone by, it was a vital, busy shipping port for the international slate trade, brought down from Blaenau Ffestiniog. Both the Welsh Highland Railway and Ffestiniog Railway can be boarded at Porthmadog.

Porthmadog has an wide range of cafes, shops and pubs.

A short 15 minute walk along the coastal path to the west takes you to the lovely village of Borth y Gest. This pretty unspoilt village has retained its Victorian charm with colourful terraced houses fronting onto a horseshoe-shaped promenade that skirts the perimeter of this sheltered bay where small boats are moored. Amenities in the village include two tea rooms, and a wonderful bistro restaurant all of which overlook the harbour.

Several beautiful beaches are within easy reach. Borth y Gest beach is within a 20 minute walk, whilst Black Rock Sands is a short drive away.

Further afield are the attractive towns of Criccieth, Beddgelert, Harlech, Pwllheli, Nefyn and Abersoch.

The Snowdonia National Park begins a mere 3 miles from Rhydwenfa and is a magnificent playground for those who love walking, mountain climbing or just scenery watching. The Park covers 823 square miles of diverse landscapes. As well as being the largest National Park in Wales, Snowdonia boasts the highest mountain in Wales, and the largest natural lake in Wales, as well as a wealth of picturesque villages like Beddgelert (8miles).
Snowdonia is renowned for being a very special place for walkers with mountain peaks, lakes, forests, rivers and coastal areas. The National Park is working on developing a network of walks and more will be added every year. In addition Snowdonia National Park has a vast amount of cycling and mountain biking trails suitable for all abilities. The Park also hosts other outdoor activities such as Zip World, white water rafting and climbing.

Portmeirion is a popular tourist village located just outside of Porthmadog, approximately 3 miles from Rhydwenfa. It is Wales’ 3rd largest visitor attraction attracting 250, 000 visitors in 2009. Portmeirion was designed and built by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis between 1925 and 1975 in the style of an Italian village, which is now is now acknowledged as a unique architectural work of art. The village is now owned by a charitable trust. The village stands on a rugged cliff top on its own private peninsula overlooking Cardigan Bay. It is surrounded by 145 acres of sub-tropical woodlands and miles of sandy beaches. The village has always been run as a hotel, which uses the majority of the buildings as hotel rooms, together with shops, a cafe, tea-room, and restaurant. Portmeirion has served as the location for numerous films and television shows, most famously serving as The Village in the 1960s television show The Prisoner. The show became a cult classic, and fans continue to visit Portmeirion, which hosts annual Prisoner fan conventions.

The stunning location of the Porthmadog golf club offers an intriguing mixture of heathlands and linksland for the discerning golfer.

Rhydwenfa provides the ideal holiday destination from which to explore the fantastic beaches, beautiful mountains, picturesque villages, and the host of activities Northwest Wales has to offer. An excellent range of attractions awaits visitors to Rhydwenfa, with wildlife centres, outdoor activities, train trips, historic sites, museums, fine gardens, golf and more to choose from.

Amazing house
I cannot say enough good things about Janes’s house. It is newly renovated and beautifully decorated. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Location was within walking distance to restaurants. Jane was in constant communication with us. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again.
