Harbourside is a romantic ground-floor apartment settled into the bustling seaside town of Porthmadog.

Close to the coast and the stunning scenery of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, this apartment is an ideal getaway for a couple seeking a seaside stay in Gwynedd.

Boasting stunning views across the harbour, with the mountains of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park creating a scenic backdrop for the town, be welcomed into an open-plan living space with a light and airy feel.

Here there is a well-stocked kitchen for cooking a hearty meal, as well as a dining space ideal for a romantic meal for two, complemented by a tipple to toast to your stay.

The sitting area houses a Smart TV as well as glass double doors which allow in seas of natural light and encompass the captivating views of boats leisurely bobbing on the harbour.

In the warmer months, head out onto the patio and enjoy morning coffee with a view of the sunshine sparkling across the water.

When sleep calls, freshen up in the shower room before cosying up in the king-size bedroom, that can also be set up as a twin on request.

Porthmadog is a simply delightful location for your Gwynedd getaway, boasting a pretty harbour, plenty of shops, pubs, cafes, and restaurants.

Porthmadog offers scenic views from the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways, local beaches for days spent in the sunshine, and watersports activities.

From here, visit the beautiful Italian-style village of Portmeirion, or check out the historic castles and sandy beaches at Harlech and Criccieth.

The Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park is an incredible location for hiking, wild swimming, and adventure sports, home to Zip World and many stunning walks including those at Glyder Fawr, Sygun Copper Mine, Llwybr Cwellyn, Yr Wyddfa, and Crib Goch.

Make an unforgettable retreat for two with a stay at the lovely Harbourside.

This is a perfectly positioned apartment with an amazing view across the harbour.

The apartment is spotless and well equipped and really quiet. We could walk out and within 10 minutes were either at shops or pubs/restaurants. We will definitely be returning.

The apartment was clean and comfortable.

The view is really lovely and it is so close to town but still quiet and peaceful. Well equipped kitchen and lots of nice touches throughout, it is one of the best stays we have had in Porthmadog and plan to stay again in future.

Patio doors from this one bed apartment open directly onto a small patio overlooking the harbour which is which is fabulous.

However inside the apartment not so fabulous. The curtains in the lounge were coming away from the curtain tape, probably caused by the fact the curtains wouldn’t slide easily on the track and kept getting jammed everytime they were opened or closed. Other than the patio doors there is only one other opening window in the bedroom which was locked and no key to open it, so no ventilation at night. We were very grateful to the lady who came to check if we were ok and brought us a couple of fans. Think she was a friend of the owner. She didn’t know where the key was. Insufficient crockery in the kitchen meant the dishwasher had to go on each night. No corkscrew, only 3 glass tumblers. The others are plastic!! Work needs to be done in the bathroom. Nowhere to hang towels, clothes or leave your wash bag. Everything had to go on the floor. A couple of hooks and shelves would sort this. The sealant around the floor tiles looked like it hadn’t been smoothed out when first done and was dirty and discoloured. Mould in the corner of the shower. It would not take a lot to transform this apartment and make it into a much nicer holiday rental. We wouldn’t go back

Owner response:

Very disappointed with this review but we are always grateful for feedback. This was the hottest week in UK history and many properties and guests struggled with it. The key for the window had gone missing along with the corkscrew. The window now has a replacement lock and key. There is now a corkscrew. The lady who called was in fact the housekeeper and cleaner doing her usual job of looking after our guests and she went out and purchased two fans for you, one for the bedroom and one for the lounge. This is the first negative review for this property but we have accepted the comments and already made changes. The curtains have been replaced which had been broken by previous clients along with the missing corkscrew. The plastic glasses are for outside use and clearly we have had some breakage or missing glasses and these have now been topped up. Work will be done on the bathroom at the next changeover, we have already put in a towel rail and shelf. We are truly sorry you have had cause to complain and that your stay was not as enjoyable as you would have liked.
