The location was perfect being close to everything in Porthmadog and it is an ideal jump off spot if you want to explore other locations near by such as Port Meirion etc. the mountain railway is also literally just around the corner. The host was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble for her, she even allowed us extended parking once our stay was over so that we could make the most of our final day. In short I would not hesitate to stay at this apartment again or with another property that this host has in the area. Everything was spot on!"

Also you don't often get conditioner in the shower/bathroom, I did here which made a nice change, I usually have to take my own. The food was very reasonably priced and delicious with a good choice on the menu.
