“The cottage is ideally located in quiet village with two cafes and a restaurant.”

Lovely coastal walk and water front.

Lovely coastal walk and water front. Double and twin room with bathroom upstairs. Exceptionally powerful shower over bath. Flagstone floor kitchen and cosy living room. Rear access to pretty stepped garden with lovely hydrangeas, and garden furniture. Really peaceful and relaxing.

“Lovely cottage, convenient for so many activities.”

Left the car alone for several days- easy walk to Porthmadog. Very quiet and comfortable. Very pleasant and helpful owner. Would definitely recommend and hope to return.

“We had a really excellent time - the information provided for Borth-y-Gest was great, the cottage was very comfortable, the whole weekend away was fabulous in a beautiful part of Wales (even in the rain).”

We'll be back.
Mr Heath September 2018

“A very comfortable and well equipped cottage superbly located for exploring Snowdonia, the narrow gauge railways of Wales and the lovely beaches on the Lleyn peninsular.”

Parking is no problem in the road outside and all the shops you need are only a mile or so away. We look forward to our next visit.

“A homely little cottage within easy reach of all the things we wanted and we hope to go back one day”

“A compact and cosy cottage in a delightful village.”

Llannor is a delightful place to stay, very close to the beach at Borth-y-Gest, which in turn is near Porthmadog. It is very small but cosy and for us it was fine for a few days at half term. There aren't many amenities in the village, although there was a nice bistro. And Porthmadog is so close and has great shops, that it doesn't matter.

“Delightful bolthole in beautiful setting”

This traditional Welsh cottage was located just a stones throw from the beach and harbour. We were spoilt for choice as to which stunning beach or woodland walk to take each day as there were so many beautiful destinations within easy reach on foot. The cottage is attractive, cosy, compact, comfortable, welcoming and well equipped. Pretty and enclosed front and back gardens enabled us to sit out and enjoy the sun at both the beginning and end of the day.

The property

This delightful, traditional stone-built terraced cottage is set in the heart of the delightful seaside village of Borth-y-Gest on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales.

This Borth-y-Gest cottage provides comfortable accommodation, with quirky features such as sloping floors in the bedrooms, acquired from many years of history.

The sitting room boasts a lovely Welsh slate fireplace with an open fire, the perfect place to spend the evening discussing the day’s adventures.

There is a door off the kitchen leading to steep steps up to a patio and grassed area where you can sit, relax and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of life in this delightful village.

There are sandy beaches just a short walk from this Borth-y-Gest cottage, footpaths through ancient woodland and miles of unspoilt coastline, whilst the famous Black Rock Sands can be reached along the coastal paths.

About the location

BORTH-Y-GEST

Porthmadog 1.2 miles; Criccieth 6 miles.

Borth-y-Gest is a quiet Welsh seaside village of mainly Victorian houses retaining much charm and character. Located by the mouth of the River Glaslyn, and a short drive away from the Italian styled village of Portmeirion, this pretty Welsh village has stunning panoramic views over the sands and estuary to the historic Harlech Castle and the Snowdonia National Park beyond. This North Wales village has two bistros and a coffee lounge all located on the front overlooking the bay and all with dog-friendly outdoor seating areas; perfect places to while away the hours watching the comings and goings of the local boatmen. Borth-y-Gest, with its sheltered coves and sandy beaches, has walking in abundance; why not head up Moel-y-Gest or take a wander over the headland to the famous Black Rock Sands, or go a little further afield where the vast Snowdonia National Park awaits? For a day out you can take a trip on the famous Ffestiniog Steam Railway and Welsh Highland Railway from Porthmadog, only a 15 minutes' walk away, or for those with younger children why not visit the shorter but more child-focussed Welsh Highland Heritage Railway? For a day trip the entire Llyn Peninsula calls. With Anglesey within reach and the whole North Wales coast with the Wales Coast Path to be explored, Borth-y-Gest has it all: a quiet bolt hole but conveniently located for ease of access to this stunning area, a must at any time of the year.
