About this property

This delightful, stone-built terraced cottage is set in the pretty seaside village of Borth-y-Gest on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales.

This well-equipped character cottage is ideal for a romantic break or family holiday and offers cosy comfort with deep sofa, 2 armchairs, dining for four, king size double bed and two 3' single beds all with good light for bed-time reading.

There is a small enclosed front garden whilst at the back there are short steps leading to a sheltered garden - perfect for al fresco dining and relaxing with a good book. A few more steps and gate lead to a grassy bank and woodland.

Just a short stroll from Llannor is the picturesque Borth-y-Gest harbour, the Wales Coastal Path and estuary headland offering breathtaking views. Discover idyllic secret sandy coves and longer awe-inspiring stretches of unspoilt beaches including Samson's Bay and the epic Black Rock Sands. The estuary teams with birdlife and is flanked by distant mountain scenery and the two historic castles of Criccieth and Harlech.

This Borth-y-Gest cottage is the ideal base for exploring the Llyn Peninsula and Snowdonia National Park with ancient castles, historic treasure houses and botanic gardens. Leave the car behind to discover Porthmadog's marina, the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland steam railways, the Italianate village of Portmeirion and myriad trails through ancient woodland. Enjoy panoramic views from the top of 260m Moel-y-Gest over the seascape and the 18 hole Porthmadog links golf course. For the adventurous at heart the thrills and spills of North Wales are close by, from deep cavern trampolining and the world's fastest zip wires to exhilarating mountain biking and white water rafting. One week at this Borth-y-Gest cottage simply won't be long enough.

Borth-y-Gest, nestled by the water close to the Llyn Peninsula, is a quaint seaside village with tearoom and restaurant. There are many walks on offer from the village, and the Snowdonia National Park is just a short drive away. Visit Porthmadog, Anglesey, Black Rock Sands and Portmeirion.

    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. ❤️

    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.

  • Graeme

    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.
