Relax and enjoy the outstanding views from this waterside getaway, which is ideal for couples or families looking for a coastal break. It’s located by the harbour in Porthmadog, less than 4 miles from the Snowdonia National Park, and there’s plenty to do within just a few miles, from shops, beaches and mountains to heritage railways and underground caverns.
This reverse-level property makes the most of its gorgeous views with living accommodation on the first floor. After a day’s adventures in North Wales, return to the open-plan living space, where you can conjure up a delicious supper in the compact fitted kitchen, eat at the adjacent dining table with benches, then relax on the comfortable leather seating, perhaps with a tipple and some TV. Floor to ceiling glazing makes this room wonderfully bright and airy, and a patio door leads to a balcony where you can sit and watch boats bobbing on the waves - ideal for a morning coffee or a sundowner. At bedtime head down to the ground floor, where there are two bedrooms, a double (also with fabulous views over the harbour) and a compact twin, sharing a bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Set on a private, managed estate, the property is less than 500m from Porthmadog’s bustling high street, where there’s a wide variety of shops, pubs and places to eat. The harbour station of the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railway is even closer - hop aboard for a trip aboard a historic steam train to either Blaenau Ffestiniog (with its underground trampolines, slate caverns and Zip World) or Caernarfon (where the majestic castle is a must-see). The sandy beaches of Borth-y-Gest and Blackrock Sands are approximately 1 mile away, while the Italianate village of Portmeirion is 2 miles.
