About this property

Occupying the lower ground floor of a semi detached Victorian property near the town centre of Caernarfon, North Wales, this pleasant self-catering coastal apartment is located in an elevated position and enjoys views extending over the rooftops towards the Menai Strait and countryside beyond. The apartment offers comfortable, clean and practical accommodation, and is nicely styled to provide an ideal base for couples, friends or a small family. Enter through the conservatory which provides seating and a wonderful vantage point from which to relax and enjoy the lovely views. The sitting room is light and bright with comfy seating and a dining area for that leisurely breakfast to set you up for the day ahead. The kitchen is compact but well-equipped and provides everything you will need during your stay. The two bedrooms are comfortable, and both rooms boast double beds and en-suite facilities. Outside, a lovely decked area offers a nice place to sit and enjoy the views, with a chilled glass of something in the evening or an early morning cuppa. Just a short walk away from the apartment is the majestic Caernarfon Castle, well worth a visit, and the harbour is a great place for many locals and holidaymakers wishing to spend the day angling or crabbing. If you're looking for a meal out why not take a 5 minute stroll away from the property to the Celtic Royal Hotel, which offers an array of wonderful meals. The Welsh Highland & Ffestiniog steam railway has a station here and is well worth putting a day to one side to travel the two hours, through some breathtaking scenery to the harbour town of Porthmadog; a shorter trip takes you to Beddgelert, where you can visit the grave of Gelert, the faithful hound of legend. Within fifteen minutes’ drive you will find the foothills of Snowdonia, from here you can access footpaths to the very summit of Mount Snowdon, or a mountain railway offers the chance to travel in comfort from nearby Llanberis. Anglesey is a short distance away and the Menai Strait provides a variety of water activities from RIB rides to dinghy sailing. This self-catering apartment is ideal as a base for exploring the area all year round. This property can be booked with Property ID: 999158 to sleep 14 guests.

Caernarfon is a Welsh royal town in Gwynedd, Wales. In the 13th century, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, ruler of Gwynedd, refused to pay homage to Edward I of England, prompting the English conquest of Gwynedd. This was followed by the construction of Caernarfon Castle, one of the largest and most imposing fortifications built by the English in Wales. The villages of Bontnewydd and Caeathro are close by.

  • Philip

    Lovely surprise to find bottle of wine and After Eights on arrival, as well as the essentials for our first morning. Perfectly situated within 10 minute walk of the main town with plenty of choice in eateries. Very quiet area despite being close to the centre.

  • Neal

    Lovely sunroom with beautiful views across the inlet.

  • Josephine

    The accommodation was clean and comfortable and we loved sitting in the conservatory watching the sunset.
