About this cottage for up to 9 guests in Gwynedd
Garth Craig stands as a terraced cottage in the vibrant heart of Porthmadog, North Wales, a renowned harbour town. This charming accommodation comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests, featuring a king-size double bedroom, two twin rooms, a children's bunk room, and a single bedroom perfect for children, complemented by two family bathrooms. The cottage boasts a well-equipped kitchen and two relaxing sitting rooms. Outdoors, enjoy off-road parking for one medium-sized car and nearby parking options, alongside sloping gardens furnished for al fresco dining. With breathtaking sea views and nearby beaches, Garth Craig is an ideal family holiday cottage in North Wales.
Please note, access to the second-floor bedroom involves a steep winding staircase with a sloping ceiling, offering reduced head height. The cottage itself is reached via 12 steps, and the town centre is accessible through an additional 25 steps, making it less suitable for guests with limited mobility. Garth Craig is structured over three floors and includes five bedrooms: a king-size double, a twin with a basin, a child-specific single, children's bunk beds, and a second-floor twin with an ensuite basin and WC. The layout includes a bathroom with a bath and shower over, separate WC, and a ground floor shower room.
Situated at an elevated position yet conveniently close to the bustling centre, this end-terrace Porthmadog cottage exudes history and character dating back to the 1850s. Originally a sea captain's home, it offers panoramic sea, harbour, and estuary views, alongside the distant Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways' charm. The beach at Borth-y-Gest is a mere 15-minute stroll away. Featuring a spacious kitchen with a dining area and two refurbished sitting rooms, the cottage is decorated in a homely style, ensuring a comfortable stay.
The sloping front lawn is perfect for seating and sunbathing while enjoying sweeping views. All of Porthmadog's amenities are on your doorstep: the historic seaside port invites exploration of the steam railway, craft and souvenir shops, top-notch restaurants, tea rooms, and coastal paths leading to the famous Black Rock Sands beach. The surrounding Snowdonia National Park and North Wales coastline offer stunning landscapes, with local attractions such as the zip wire near Llanberis and the Llechwedd biking centre. This Porthmadog cottage is a wonderful holiday home in all seasons.
