Guests Reviews:
RS (October 2023) 4.3 STARS: "OK, so this flat doesn't exactly overlook either the harbour or the sea, but it suited our needs nicely. Although there were only two of us using it, it would be fine if you have one or two small children with you. It's a very easy walk into town, and the Ffestiniog Railway station with its excellent Spooner's Bar is even nearer. The car space right in front of the flat made unloading and loading as easy as any where we've stayed. Would definitely try to book this place again."

"Holiday bliss. Wonderful accommodation,but,bring your own hanging shower caddy. We found Lidle’s centre isle invaluable for home comforts that we had forgotten. Position of flat suited us because we spent a lot of time at the railway which we could walk to"

The Apartment was newly refurbished and furnished and was very clean and comfortable. I think the description needs to make it clearer that the harbour can only be viewed when sitting outside on the patio. When sitting inside the view is of a line of parked cars. There needs to be more kitchen utensils - there were no scissors, corkscrew, bottle opener or bread knife and very few bowls for preparing and cooking meals.
