Guests say
Tir Gafr is a beautifully spacious and well-equipped cottage in Harlech, offering breathtaking views over the sea, dunes, golf course, and mountains. Guests consistently praise its cleanliness, privacy, and the unbeatable location, ideal for exploring North and Mid Wales. The open-plan living area and kitchen are highly appreciated, as is the easy access to the beach and town. While the steep access may challenge those with limited mobility and there is a minor note about limited evening seating, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests returning year after year.
Multiple reviews highlight the property as very clean and well-maintained, with no negative comments regarding cleanliness.

Very comfortable with wonderful views of the sea, the mountains, and the links. Perfect place to spend a wonderfully relaxing week.

Tir Gafr is in a stunning location with views across the Harlech beach and the sea. Perfect for seeing the sunset and a very relaxing setting. There are no properties overlooking the house, so it's very private. It's very well equipped for a holiday rental - there was everything we needed in the kitchen. Inside the house was spacious, although there were just two of us. It was our first visit, and we had such a lovely week that we have booked again for next year. Ideal to be able to walk to Harlech town centre too. For golf fans, there are also views across the golf course. Small tip - bring an eye mask if you get woken by sunlight in the summer months, as there are no blackout blinds or curtains in the bedrooms.

We've stayed in Tir Gafr several times over the past ten years or so - and have booked again for this year and several times next year. A walk across the golf course and dunes to the almost empty beach is a treat. The house is super clean, comfortable and well-equipped. I especially like is the open plan sitting, dining and kitchen area - It means that I can cook a meal for all of us and not feel out of things! Another massive plus for us is the patio door doors wide balcony that gives spectacular across Tremadog Bay to the Lleyn Peninsula. Simply brilliant.
