  • "Lovely location, shame about the apartment."

    On entering the place, there was a musty smell and there appeared to be moisture absorbers everywhere! Nearly every appliance is on an extension lead, which in turn is on a multi adaptor. The bathroom has a shaving light with one side missing. You can see the electrics are scorched inside-please fix this. Mould is present in the main bedroom, all the cutlery, pans and dishes were not clean! Although it stated linen is provided, there was no bath towels. if we had been aware, we would not have had to buy any. It's a real shame that the apartment did not match the reviews, as we may have looked elsewhere. The side of the fridge on the floor is not a suitable place to store a breadboard!! We are not confident about using sykes in the future, as it is evident that the property has not been checked in a long time.

    The issues you’ve raised had not previously been brought to our attention, however we are taking them seriously. Maintenance has been arranged to attend the property to assess the bathroom light and carry out a full condition check, and we are reviewing the points mentioned regarding ventilation and the bedroom. We are also investigating the housekeeping concerns you noted, including the cleanliness of kitchen items and the towel provision, as this is not the standard we expect. Your comments have been shared with the relevant teams so this can be addressed properly. We appreciate you bringing these matters to us and apologise for any inconvenience caused. Guest feedback is important in helping us maintain standards, and we are acting on this as a priority. Property Owner

  • "A lovely, cosy flat with a beautiful view that merits re-visiting time and again."

    (Unfortunately for two nights of our 5 night stay we were faced with very loud party noise from the property with an adjoining second floor balcony, number 11, which rather spoiled the weekend for us. The rest of the time was peaceful and very quiet.)

  • "Small but comfortable and well maintained."

    Would be very small for four, but fine for two of us. Excellent view over the estuary, the birds and of the railway crossing the Cob embankment. Good to have designated parking, and the wharf area is quiet as it is accessed by a private road. We would stay here again.

  • "Back again at this lovely apartment, we come mainly for the view across the bay looking out towards Harlech, as well as watching the trains trundle back and forth across the Cob."

    Everywhere was lovely and welcoming and I liked the new retro looking fridge and freezer!. We hope to be back next year.

  • "Whilst the property is maybe a little dated, kitchen area a little small, all minor issues are completely forgotten when you see the magnificent views from the balcony."

The property

12E South Snowdon Wharf is a fine, first-floor apartment situated in Porthmadog, Gwynedd.

This property boasts a balcony, open-plan living space, and stunning harbour views and with designated, off-road parking for one car, 12E South Snowdon Wharf is well-suited to a family or group of friends on a seaside getaway in Gwynedd.

Stroll from the seaside to your property to wash off the stubborn sand that followed you home in the bathroom.

The open-plan living space welcomes you inside to kick up your feet in the sitting area with a book, while a delicious dinner is whipped up in the kitchen space equipped with electric oven and hob, microwave, and fridge.

Dig in at a wooden dining table for four, then enjoy a drink on the balcony as the sun sinks into the harbour.

Settle into the sofa with an evening film on the Smart TV, before welcoming sleep in a double or twin bed waiting to catch you.

Soak up your local surroundings on a 14 mile, steam-train ride through the countryside at Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways, visit the Maritime Museum, and grab some pub grub at Spooner’s Pub – just a stone’s throw from your property!

Venture a little further afield for Harlech to indulge in a beach day at Harlech Beach, before exploring Harlech Castle and Gwen Einion.

Take a short drive to Caernarfon to treat the history buff to Caernarfon Castle, the Hanging Tower, and Caernarfon Tower.

For scenic, seaside adventures in Gwynedd, book a stay at 12E South Snowdon Wharf.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

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.
