Talsarnau is a small traditional Welsh village situated in a magnificent position between the mountains and the sea, and only 4 miles from the delightful small town of Harlech which is dominated by its majestic 13th century castle. The town is very popular with golfers, who come to enjoy the famous Royal St. David's course, whilst the beautiful 7 mile long sandy beach is wonderful for family fun and long walks. Harlech also offers an excellent variety of amenities including some good quality restaurants. Porthmadog is also close by, as is the Italianate village of Portmeirion, whilst the whole of the Snowdonia National Park including Snowdon itself, together with the sandy beaches of Cardigan Bay, are all within easy reach.

A lovely holiday in a beautiful location. The cottage was well laid out and comfortable for our family.
Mrs Bishop, Dursley, May 2012
Location and cottage were amazing. It was spacious and did not feel cramped for 14 people. The amenities were perfect and standard of furnishings fantastic. The view is indescribable and we couldn't believe it actually looked over Portmerion village! So sweet at night seeing the lights twinkling. We LOVED it and didn't want to leave.
