The property

Murmur Y Don rests in an enviable elevated position overlooking Harlech Beach, often referred to locally as “Good God Corner” for its breath-taking coastal views.

Dating back to 1907, this characterful property sits within one acre of mature gardens, offering a tranquil setting for families and friends seeking a scenic Welsh seaside escape.

Inside, the ground floor features an entrance hallway fitting with the character of the home, with a handy shower room just off from here.

The chef of the group can enjoy a well-equipped kitchen with an oil-fired Firebird range cooker, electric cooker, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine and walk-in larder, providing everything you could need to rustle up home-cooked favourites.

After a delicious dinner, find the study nearby, which is stocked with books and games, and a sitting room leading on to a circular panoramic window room framing the outstanding view Upstairs, four bedrooms await: two doubles with French doors to a balcony, a further double and a single, all making the most of the uninterrupted sea views.

Guests can indulge in a long soak in the impressive 6’ cast-iron freestanding bath after a day of walking the coastlines, or unwind by exploring the extensive, one-acre gardens.

Harlech is famed for its dramatic clifftop castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site offering sweeping views across Cardigan Bay.

Wander the quaint streets lined with independent shops and cafés, or head to Harlech Beach for miles of golden sand and invigorating coastal walks.

Just a short drive away, Barmouth beckons with its bustling harbour and Victorian promenade, perfect for enjoying fish and chips while watching the boats drift by.

The Mawddach Estuary provides scenic cycling and walking trails, ideal for nature lovers.

Further along the coast, Porthmadog is a gateway to Eryri’s (Snowdonia’s) rugged beauty and home to the famous Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways, where heritage steam trains wind through spectacular mountain landscapes.

Explore the charming harbour, browse local boutiques, or venture to nearby Portmeirion, an Italianate village brimming with colour and character.

These three destinations promise history, scenery, and unforgettable experiences on the Welsh coast.

Make Murmur Y Don your base for a memorable coastal getaway in North Wales.
