Guests say

Guests consistently praise the Moelwyn 57D South Snowdon Wharf apartment for its high-spec fittings, comfortable beds, and well-equipped kitchen. Its location is ideal for exploring Porthmadog and the surrounding area, with a beautiful harbour view and convenient proximity to local amenities. The property is described as clean, modern, and well-maintained, with a balcony that adds to its charm. While there is a mention of minor issues, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests eager to return.

The reviews do not directly mention cleanliness issues, suggesting that the property is well-kept. However, due to the lack of explicit comments on cleanliness, a near-perfect score is given instead of a full score.

The location is highly praised for its proximity to the town, supermarkets, the harbour, and local attractions, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.

Comfort is frequently highlighted, with special mentions of super comfy beds and a relaxing atmosphere. A minor comment about the duvet being too warm for July slightly affects the score.

Facilities are consistently described as high-quality, well-equipped, and with great attention to detail. The mention of a minor issue with a hand towel and toilet roll prevents a perfect score.

There are no specific mentions of gifts or extra thoughtful touches beyond the high-quality amenities and equipment provided. Therefore, it is not possible to score this category.

About this property

Overlooking the picturesque harbour, in the town of Porthmadog, Gwynedd, sits this contemporary, duplex apartment, Moelwyn 57D South Snowdon Wharf. Benefitting from superb views with open-plan living, Moelwyn 57D South Snowdon Wharf is located at the far end of a complex and offers a superb base for two couples or a family wanting to explore Snowdonia and this coastal Welsh region. Upon arrival you are met by off-road parking for one car, before climbing the external staircase to reach the apartment. Step into the light and airy open-plan living space, boasting a striking, fitted kitchen with a host of integrated appliances, sure to entice home-cooking, along with a dining table where you can enjoy mealtimes. Cosy up on the leather settees and appreciate the fabulous views, or slide open the patio doors to access the balcony, where you can enjoy a gin and tonic whilst watching the boats bob with the tide. Off the living area is a twin bedroom with zip/link beds, whilst the second floor offers a king-size with distant views of the hills. Start the day in the shower room before heading out and exploring this picturesque village; across the harbour bridge lies the world-famous narrow-gauge heritage railway, Rheilffordd Ffestiniog, where you can catch spectacular trips into the Snowdonia Mountains around Blaenau. Within a short walk there is a choice of restaurants, pubs and cafés, along with local craft shops, art galleries and boutiques showcasing the work of talented local artists. Pack up your seaside essentials and head to the famous Black Rock Sands Beach, dominated by a large, multi-coloured headland rock or continue to Caernarfon and see the iconic Castle, a Segontium Roman Fort, before heading for dinner at the popular Osteria. Moelwyn 57D South Snowdon Wharf offers a wonderful stay, whatever time of year.

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 Caerforn . 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 Lleyn Peninsula.

    Very well equipped.

  • Albert

    Beds extremely comfortable. Balcony is stunning with views over the harbour. Position of the property is ideal as a base. Railway station 2 minutes walk. Shops, restaurants etc within a few minutes. Probably one of the best places we,ve stayed. No hesitation in staying there again.

  • Jane

    It’s modern, clean, very well equipped and had everything we needed including a “gin and tonic” balcony overlooking the harbour. It’s 5 minutes walk from the coastal path leading to Borth y Gest, Morph Beacon bay (our favourites) and beyond. Train trip to Beddgelert was delightful.
