Morfa Lodge

We had a lovely stay at Morfa Lodge.

Kathie was very helpful and welcoming when we arrived. It was a unique property with lots of interesting features and everything was very comfortable. We loved the position which was worth the hill, lovely and quiet with nothing but birdsong to hear. Many thanks.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Morfa Lodge.

There is plenty of room and everything we needed. But it was quite grubby in places. Behind the furniture had not been dusted for a long time and there were some dead insects behind the conservatory furniture. But the four of us enjoyed our stay.

Lovely welcome from the owner.

Our second stay at this remarkable lodge. So central yet so quiet being up high. A really special place with the character of an old building but with the convenience of a lovely modern kitchen and walk in shower. Hope to return again

A beautiful old cottage on top op a hill overlooking Porthmadog and with a lovely view on the surrounding mountains.

Shops nearby and a short walk to the Main Street and harbor. The cottage offered everything we needed for out one week stay. It's quite old and might lack the comfort of a more modern house, but you get a lot of authenticity in return. The owner was very kind and helpfull (thanks for the eggs and cookies!). We had a great stay here and it's a perfect place to explore the North-west of Wales.

My family and I recently had the absolute pleasure of staying in the beautiful Morfa Lodge, and I can honestly say it exceeded all our expectations.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this was a place cared for with love and attention to detail. The lodge was spotlessly clean and tidy, which made settling in effortless. It was also full of charm and character, giving it a cosy, welcoming atmosphere that made it feel like a true home away from home. Everything worked perfectly – from the appliances to the heating and lighting – which meant we could relax without a single worry. It’s always the small touches that make a big difference, and this place had them all. Kathie was absolutely lovely – kind, welcoming, and clearly passionate about making guests feel at ease. Communication was excellent from the beginning, and we felt completely looked after throughout our stay. We genuinely didn’t want to leave, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit. If you’re considering a stay here, don’t hesitate – it’s a hidden gem. Highly recommended!

We absolutely loved the lodge, such a unique place with loads of charm and history, though surprisingly spacious.

We appreciated that it was quietly situated yet easy access to the town. It was a real pleasure to wake up and see the mountains in the morning. A truly spectacular part of the country and we hope to visit again.

Lovely quirky place within 5 minutes walk of Porthmadog.

Couldn’t ask for more to be honest, and fantastic hosts.

This is a lovely, quirky house, with lots of interesting and unusual features.

Very comfortable and ideally situated a few minutes walk from the centre of Porthmadog whilst also having the feeling of being in a rural location. Great!!

We had a wonderful week.

If the weather had been better it would have been perfect. Morfa Lodge is beautiful, it's quite deceiving, totally private and like Dr Who's tardis, looks quite small on the outside but goes on for miles on the inside, well furnished, clean and very comfortable. Thanks for a lovely holiday with our grandchildren.

Superb quiant lodge just as described.

Far bigger than we thought it would be. Enjoyed our stay immensely and would definitely stay again if holidaying in Porthmadog

Kathie is a great host and very approachable.

We were misdirected by some locals when first arriving at Morfa Lodge which made it more difficult to find than it should have been to find. The property itself is quite a quirky mix of new and old and was more than adequate for our party of 6 over the Christmas week. Morfa lodge is a great location with so many attractions within walking distance : Welsh historic Railways, Port Merion, Black Rock Sands Beach And not to mention other sites such as Harlech castle only a short drive away.

The cottage is very easy to stay in.

Plenty of space. Lovely and clean and the position of the cottage is perfect.

This is a lovely, slightly eccentric, converted coach house set on the hillside above the middle of Porthmadog.

Lots of character, spacious and well equipped, with lots of period furniture and artefacts collected by (I think) the owners grandparents. Rambling garden which our grandsons loved exploring and easy walking distance from the harbour and shops.

Fantastic historic lodge full of charm tucked away in a peaceful plot.

It has a new extension with a beautiful fitted kitchen, downstairs toilet and shower room, utility room and a bright comfy conservatory. We found the lodge very well equipped and a welcome gift of fresh eggs milk and biscuits which was a lovely touch. We were met by the owner Kathie who showed us around and made us feel welcome straight away. We had a fantastic stay

A lovely home with lots of interesting features.

Comfortable and really well equipped. Due to the steps in and out of most rooms and the decorations which give it character, I wouldn't recommend it for those with very young children or mobility issues. It was so nice to have lots of space. The conservatory or living room window seat looking out over the mountains, including Yr Wyddfa, were definitely our highlights. We loved sitting looking at the view, in rain or shine, with our morning coffee!

The location of this property is perfect for exploring the lovely town of Porthmadog.

The outside of the property is very attractive and the inside is quirky and, as the description says, full of antique furniture. The beds are comfortable, the showers are very good and there is plenty of fridge a freezer space. However, having no dishwasher was a big negative. Also no mirror or shaver point in the downstairs shower room and not enough towel rail to dray the towels. This sitting room is very dark and there is no desk or table next to a power point for plugging in a laptop computer. Most of the property was very clean, but the towel rail and skirting board in the downstairs shower room was dusty and the baking trays and some of the cups had been put back into the kitchen cupboards dirty. Overall the property was okay. Not the best holiday let we've had but certainly not the worst.

Great property in great location.

Very quiet and private road superb. Lots of positives and had a great stay. Property of this size does however need a dishwasher. Holidays are not for washing dishes etc ! Also upstairs bathroom radiator very slow to heat up. Other radiators are great. Thanks

We really enjoyed our stay and our experience of Portmerion Village.

A wonderfully spacious and characterful property.

Well situated for the local scenic and other attractions. Easy walking distance from the centre of Porthmadog (although up a short steepish hill)

What a beautiful spacious lodge!

Lots of space with plenty of areas to lounge about in. The original building has a stunning old interior with extension containing a modern and spacious kitchen/dining area. The upstairs bedrooms were beautiful with access to a small balcony. The lodge and its grounds feels secluded but has the added bonus of takeaways, Aldi and other shops a short walking distance from the property. Our stay was great, on our last day I was still noticing new things and furniture, the property is loaded with history and many things to explore and admire. I would love to stay again!

Host accommodation location were all exceptional and well beyond expectations

The location of this property is idyllic for those seeking a hideaway, with amazing birdsong from the surrounding woodland.

Its location means that it might not be suitable for those less agile, unless using a car for every trip to the shops, as it is fairly far above the town. The property is full of character, and everything worked well, although a little scruffy at the rear view from the modern kitchen. Overall lovely. Would only go back if sharing the cost as expensive for two.

A beautiful house, tastefully furnished in an olde worlde style.

Very comfortable and quiet, close to town centre. We would recommend this property as outstanding.

Location was perfect for us; a great blend of peace & quiet in a natural setting, while only a 5min stroll from Porthmadog's High Street with shops, restaurants, pubs, etc.

And so close to the Llyn peninsula, with its views and villages, and Portmeirion and Snowdonia. We easily visited all 3 on 3 days. The welcome was covid-inclusive, informative, friendly and spot-on. The Lodge itself is a super blend of old and new. Cosy, traditional, quirky, bags of character, wonderful "natural" garden, with the modern kitchen, conservatory & ground floor shower room. There were only the two of us, so it felt even more spacious, but really, plenty of space for occupants if using all 3 bedrooms. A lovely vibe here. We hope to visit again.

This lodge has everything you need for a lovely holiday.

Comfort, well equipped, ideal location (very private), excellent showers, and very clean. Not sure it would be ideal for youngsters, as lots of delicate ornaments and steps etc., but being the older generation, we loved it and couldn't have asked for more. Mrs Paula Bates

Loved this spacious quirky property.

Great parking outside the house. Kitchen well fitted out, although a larger refrigerator would be helpful for a place of this size. Beds were comfy, bedrooms large and upstairs shower hot and fierce. Living area was varied and comfortable, kitchen/diner well used. Having loads of towel rails was appreciated. Hope to return in the future.

We enjoyed our stay at Morpha Lodge.

It is a unique home mixing historic and modern situated on a hill overlooking Porthmadog. From the Lodge you can walk to shopping (Tescos), cafes and restaurants and even the Ffestiniog Railway. We were however most disappointed with the misleading information provided by Skyes Holiday. There is a section on the web listing for Morpha Lodge that says "Stay at cottages with Wifi" and there was no wifi.

My grandsons were disappointed that there was no wifi.

We are used to that being available wherever we rent so I was surprised that it was not there and found it inconvenient myself.

This is a lovely lodge house which is much larger than it looks in the photos on the website.

We arrived on a cold wet afternoon but were given a warm welcome by the property owner who showed us around the house. The house is well equipped and the new mattress which had arrived the week previous was extremely comfortable. The icing on the cake for us was the grand piano in the lounge which had recently been tuned. The kitchen is very modern but if you don’t fancy cooking there are plenty of nice restaurants and bistros within a short drive and in the summer months with fine weather not too far to walk to. Surrounded by trees and with stunning views from most of the windows it is a very relaxing house to spend time in. The only negative comment I could make is that there was no Wi-Fi so make sure you have plenty of data on your mobile phone before you go. We managed to get a 4G signal on O2 most of the time and there is a good selection of tourist leaflets in the property for you to browse through and plan your days out. All in all an excellent property which I would definitely return to for another stay. I would also point out that the owner is very accommodating and is keen to implement any suggestions/correct any problems during your stay. I think the description on the website needs to be updated to reflect this.

Morfa Lodge is in a great location for exploring North Wales.

It is very spacious and comfortable and the cottage itself is a very interesting old building. The owner is extremely helpful and friendly and organised a piano tuner to come in and tune the baby grand piano that's in the cottage so I could enjoy playing it!

Should have a dishwasher, general seating is tired and lacking in comfort.

Nowhere to sit in garden, and should be drastically cut back to enable the view.

We really enjoyed the location of the cottage.

It was also really spacious. The shower was amazing! The kids loved exploring all the nooks and crannies of the garden. We had a fantastic holiday. Would have been nice to have a dish washer and a radio in the kitchen. The double mattress could be more comfy.

Excellent location for sightseeing around the whole area and a 5 minute walk to everything in Porthmadog - Cottage was quirky and owner welcoming and friendly - loved it!

!

Absolutely brilliant cottage, full of character, very spacious and a lovely welcoming host.

We would loved to have stayed longer.

the cottage was spacious and clean a modern kitchen.

I think you could add a hair dryer in one of the drawers but this only thing. Thankfully I brought my travel one. The cottage was handy for Porthmadog town centre.

.............................

The cottage was spacious and in a great location for us, close to the centre of Porthmadog yet secluded and with great mountain views.

Some of the furnishings were a little tired, especially the sofas in the living room which is very dark. The kitchen equipment provided could be better. There were no decent knives for preparing vegetables, no baking sheets or roasting pans for use in the oven and the crockery was a very odd assortment with no decent sized cereal bowls. It would also be useful if handwash was provided in each bathroom.
