• "Small cottage, just right for retired couple."

  Very well placed in Borth, moments away from harbour, beautiful setting. Well equipped kitchen. Parking in road no problem. No shops in Borth but easy 20 min walk into Porthmadog and a few mins in car to Aldi/Lidl. "Seaview Cafe" served excellent food ( and ice creams to take away!)

  Hello - thank you for your review and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Liz Property Owner

• "Such a comfortable well equipped Cottage which met all our needs."

  Loved the Portmeirion China lovely cushions and throws, felt so homely. Lovely short stoll to coastal path and harbour. Garden was an added bonus and did catch the sunshine. Had a delicious curry from the Glaslyn Indian in Portmadog, visited Portmeirion and also enjoyed a swim in Llyn Pardarn. Hope to visit again. Thank you. ❤️

  I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay and the cottage comfortable for you. Swimming in Llyn Pardarn - what a brilliant thing to do - very hardy. I hope you come back again soon. Liz Property Owner

• "Had a lovely stay at Llannor, beds are super comfy!"

  Which is a rarity in holiday homes. Well appointed kitchen and a great shower. We spent most of the evenings down at the beach. Tumble drier was playing up and a washing line in the garden would have been useful, but we managed with the clothes airer.

  Hi Many thanks for your kind review and so glad you enjoyed your holiday. I'll check out the tumble drier and thanks for mentioning it. I do hope we can welcome you back. Liz Property Owner

• "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Llanor."

  The location for the cliff paths and beaches as well as an easy stroll into Porthmadog was perfect. The cottage was comfortable, quirky, well stocked and cosy. Everything we needed and the lovely bottle of wine that was left for our arrival was a nice added touch. The beds were comfortable with lovely snuggly duvets and pillows and the shower powerful and hot. Perfect. We will be back.

  So glad the cottage lived up to expectations and thank you for your kind review. I look forward to welcoming you back. Liz Property Owner

• "Llannor is a lovely small cottage in a great location, 2 mins walk from the Wales coast path."

  It is tastefully decorated throughout, with comfortable beds. The kitchen is very well equipped with lovely quality crockery. Liz, the owner, has provided extensive local information on walks, places to visit etc, which was very helpful. It was just perfect for us.

  Thank you for such a kind review. It's always a pleasure to hear when visitors have enjoyed their break in beautiful Borth-y-Gest. I hope to welcome you again one day. Kind regards Liz Property Owner

• "It was a very quirky cottage, mainly because of its sloping upper floors, which took a bit of getting used to."

  It was very well equipped, and there were comprehensive instructions for all the appliances and heating. It was very cosy, and had some great walks along the coast nearby.

  Thank you for such a positive review. As you said the location is great for scenic walks. I look forward to welcoming you again one day. Kind regards Liz Property Owner

• "We had a wonderful week at Llannor exploring this beautiful part of North Wales."

  We only used our car once the whole week for a trip to Criccieth as we walked for miles each day in all directions - along the estuary, the coast, to Porthmadog. The weather was very kind to us for the time of year and one of us - a keen photographer - rose early nearly every day to watch the sunrise over the harbour. We also enjoyed a birthday trip on the Ffestiniog Railway, a meal at Yr Awstralia and chatting to locals as we watched the world go by in Borth y Gest. Can't wait to return! Diolch yn fawr!

  So pleased your birthday holiday was a success. Good weather always helps. I hope we can welcome you again. Kind regards Liz Property Owner

• "We had a wonderful time at Llannor."

  The cottage was very cosy, comfortable, immaculate and had everything we needed. An amazing base, close to everywhere we wished to visit, including the steam train which was an easy walking distance away. Amazing experience for us all, including our dog who loved it! Everything was close at hand and the harbour in Borth Y Gest was one of the prettiest we’ve seen and cafe overlooking it was great. Beautiful coast walks and bays a few minutes from cottage. Owner very helpful and accommodating. A lovely bottle of wine on arrival. Thank you.

  Thank you for such a great review. I do hope we can welcome you back soon. Liz Property Owner

  Ideally situated in Borth-y-Gest, it was clean, cosy, comfortable and had everything we needed for really relaxing holiday.

• "A lovely quaint old cottage in beautiful Borth y Gest."

  Small but clean and welcoming. Steep staircase with quirky sloping floors upstairs. Modern well equipped kitchen with plenty of crockery, cutlery and utensils, huge larder style fridge containing a lovely bottle of wine, with small freezer compartment, dishwasher and washer dryer. Double bedroom, with extremely comfortable bed, overlooking a lovely feature rear slate patio area with table, chairs and loungers, a further garden area with woods beyond. Twin bedroom overlooking the front. Parking is opposite the cottage. Borth y Gest is a lovely unspoilt village and Llanor is within easy walking distance to some beautiful beaches, Samsons Bay being our favourite. Close to the Welsh Coastal Path there are many lovely walks in the area. An ideal place spot, close to the shops and amenities in Porthmadog (just a walk around the bay and boatyard) and within driving distance of other picturesque places on the Llyn Peninsula and further south towards Harlech. Excellent easy communication with the owner.

  Wow - what a fab write-up. Thank you! I really hope we can welcome you back soon. Liz Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage in a pretty and peaceful harbour village."

  Cottage is very well equipped and very comfortable. Borth y Gest is a very friendly place but it’s worth noting there is no local shop but Porthmadog is minutes away by car and a pleasant walk via the coast path. There is also an excellent bus service. Loads of lovely walks straight from the door and plenty of interesting places to visit if you wish to go further afield.

  Thank you for such a great review. The shops in Porthmadog offer a good choice of provisions with local fishmonger and butcher plus supermarkets and occasional local food market. I do hope we can welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

• "Absolutely fantastic property, full of character and age, but with comfortable beds, lovely bedding and very warm, good shower pressure etc."

  Kitchen very generously equipped and with premium crockery, really a pleasure to use. Fantastic contact with the owner who is very warm and accommodating and real expert of the area (check out the cottage guide for walks, cafés etc). Fantastic location in the most stunning village and basically walking distance to Porthmadog (our best discovery was of a path along the shore both ways -to see amazing beaches or if you follow the curve of the bay and walk up between houses you will get to Porthmadog harbour (if you're not sure, ask at Sea view cafe). New cafe Bae Borth (?) really worth a visit, run by lovely Canadians - the chowder was out of this world, and great selection of cheese and local tipples to eat in or take away. 10/10, we'll be back!

• "We had a great time at Llannor."

  This is the second time we’ve stayed here after visiting my parents staying at Llannor last September. We were the first guests in the cottage after the lockdown and it was beautifully clean and there were no signs of it not being used for months. We love the location of this cottage as it’s 5 minutes walk to the sea and we enjoyed sitting on the benches over looking the sea. A washing machine would be a really helpful addition to this cottage so that we didn’t have to return home with mountains of washing! However, there is no obvious space for it as the kitchen is fairly compact. Thank you for hosting our stay, we hope to return again!

  Thank you for the great feedback and this winter we installed a smart new kitchen with the requested washing machine. Property Owner
