Porthmadog 5 miles.
Often described as the ‘pearl of Wales on the shores of Snowdonia’, this delightful seaside town is situated just 5 miles from Porthmadog. The town’s 13th century castle perches majestically on a rocky outcrop, dominating the skyline and offering superb views of Tremadog Bay and the Snowdonia mountains. Watersports enthusiasts will be delighted by the two beaches, whilst walkers and bikers are spoilt for choice by the proximity of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Stroll along the beaches, watch porpoises playing in the surf, or relax in the various pubs, restaurants and tearooms, sampling the famous Cadwalader’s ice cream. Further afield, attractions such as Portmeirion’s wonderful Italianate gardens, the Ffestiniog railway in Porthmadog, Harlech Castle, Caernarfon Castle and the beautiful beaches and renowned golf courses of the Lleyn Peninsula are all within an easy drive.
A superb Victorian terrace, located next to the village green, in the centre of Criccieth, on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales. This spacious Criccieth cottage has been renovated throughout to a very high standard, retaining many original features, and oozes character the minute you walk in the front door onto the original mosaic tiled floor. The front sitting room in this Criccieth cottage has the original picture rails and coving, and traditional high ceiling in keeping with that of a grand Victorian house, while the open fire and large bay window make it a light, warm and welcoming room. A sliding glass doorway leads through into the large dining room and on down the hall into a further spacious sitting room, with a cosy woodburner, so if you want a bit of peace and quiet to read your favourite book, you can escape into here! The fitted, well-equipped kitchen boasts an electric range cooker, twin Belfast sinks and beech block worktops, giving an indulgent, high-quality finish, so you can enjoy cooking delicious meals in this self-catering Criccieth cottage. Some of the bedrooms in this Criccieth cottage enjoy lovely sea or castle views, one from a double bay window, so when you wake each morning, you can make the most of the ever-changing coastal and country scenery. Criccieth itself has two superb family friendly beaches, with safe swimming, watersports and rock-pooling. Situated on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park, Criccieth is a delightful town with an array of shops, pubs and restaurants on your doorstep, as well as Criccieth Castle which was built in the 13th century and dominates the landscape on its rocky perch at one end of the town.
