Modern home with spectacular sea / estuary and mountain views

This spacious modern home away from home is in the sought after South Snowdon Wharf on the edge of Porthmadog. Guests LOVE the spectacular views over the estuary towards Portmeirion, Harlech and across to the railway. The views can be enjoyed from the kitchen/living/dining area the balcony and both bedrooms.
This double fronted home offers uninterrupted views of the everchanging estuary. Porthmadog High Street is only a 5 minute walk away to a choice of shops, restaurants and scenic walks.  Porthmadog is an excellent all round location with sandy beaches and mountains so close at hand.
This 'upside down' modern seaside home has an open plan living, dining and kitchen area to soak in the views through the double patio onto the balcony and across the estuary. SKY TV basic package and WIFI included.
There are two double bedrooms, both of which overlook the estuary and a bathroom with standalone shower cubicle, WC and sink.
Due to the open plan nature of the property, it is not suitable for guests with young children.
Must-dos in the area include Portmeirion village (4 miles), Criccieth beaches and castle (5 miles), Beddgelert mountain village at the foot of Snowdon (8 miles), Llanberis, numerous lakes, museums and train rides including the scenic trip up Snowdon. This is a picturesque and central location for a holiday property in North Wales.

A lovely flat in a wonderfully peaceful location. The flat is pretty well appointed, and finding all the various shower gels and washing up stuff was a bit of a bonus. The beds are firm and very comfortable, with most of the furnishings being in good condition. The balcony is great, secluded but with a great view. Sue was very comunicative.

A week in Porthmadog

A nice property with a fantastic view over the Glaslyn estuary. A great base to explore the area. Plenty of public transport so you can park up and leave the car. The coastal scenery is fantastic with miles of golden sand, the heritage railways are on the doorstep if you want to have a change in pace. I was quite lucky with the weather but had a really comfortable stay in a lovely property.

Wonderful

Lovely comfortable house in a fantastic location, very easy to find. It's a great base to tour around North Wales although it was hard to tear ourselves away from the ever changing view. The sun shone for us and watching the full moon rising over the estuary at high tide was amazing. We couldn't have been happier and hope we can return next year. Thanks very much.
