The property

Porthmadog 1.2 miles.

Nestled in the picturesque coastal village of Borth-y-Gest, this holiday retreat makes an excellent base for those drawn to the great outdoors.

From the front door, you can step straight onto coastal paths that wind past hidden coves, golden beaches and sweeping estuary views, setting the scene for bracing autumn strolls, invigorating winter rambles or sunlit summer wanderings.

For walkers, the options are endless.

Take on the Moel-y-Gest trail that rises just behind the village, rewarding your efforts with panoramic views, or follow the coastal path across The Cob into the enchanting Italianate village of Portmeirion.

A little further afield, the wide sands of Black Rock open out in dramatic fashion, while a short drive brings you to the wonders of Snowdonia National Park.

Here, adventures range from gentle family valley walks to the challenge of summiting iconic peaks such as Snowdon/Yr Wyddfa and Cnicht.

Families are equally well catered for, with activities to suit every pace and age.

Try kayaking or paddleboarding on the Glaslyn Estuary, or explore cycling routes like Lon Ardudwy and the Mawddach Trail.

Thrill-seekers can head to adventure parks including Zip World and GreenWood Family Park, while gentler days might be spent uncovering history at Criccieth Castle, wandering the artistic streets of Portmeirion, or enjoying a nostalgic journey on the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railway.

After a day’s exploration, return to a welcoming base where you can relax, warm up after fresh-air adventures, share hearty meals, and plan tomorrow’s outing — whether it’s scaling a mountain, discovering a castle, or uncovering a quiet beach along the coast.

With direct access to coastal paths, an array of family-friendly attractions nearby, and some of Wales’ finest landscapes on the doorstep, this is a comfortable retreat for every season.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

PORTHMADOG

Harlech 5 miles; Caernarfon 19 miles.

The bustling harbour town of Porthmadog lies on the Glaslyn Estuary and enjoys a stunning setting. The gateway to the Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog is full of individual shops and restaurants, and home to the Ffestiniog Railway and the Welsh Highland railway where you can travel by steam through spectacular Snowdonia scenery, to Blaenau Ffestiniog or Caernarfon. The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk or drive from the town. The well known and unique Italianate village of Portmeirion is just down the coast. Situated on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula, Portmeirion, famous as the location of the TV show The Prisoner and the final episode of Cold Feet, is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and woodlands. The area also boasts castles at Criccieth and Harlech, and superb unspoilt beaches such as Black Rock Sands, where the sands stretch as far as the eye can see. Also within reach is the famous Zip World Slate Caverns and Bounce Below where you can get involved with a variety of activities including the thrilling zip wires and underground caverns to explore; there is something here to suit the whole family. An ideal location for the attractions of Snowdonia and the The Llyn Peninsula.
