5 Star Cottages (Sleeps 16), Amazing Sea & Mountain Views

Borth-Y-Gest, Gwynedd

16

Bryn Gwyn and Tegfryn are two exquisite semi-detached cottages situated in the picturesque village of Borth-y-Gest, Gwynedd, North Wales. Constructed around 1900, these character cottages have been rated 5 stars by Visit Wales and are designed to provide a cozy and charming atmosphere. Each cottage accommodates up to 8 guests, offering a total of 8 bedrooms, with four in each. The properties feature stunning front garden balconies that overlook Tremadog Bay and the majestic Snowdonia mountains, making them an ideal retreat for families or groups seeking a peaceful getaway.

Access to the cottages is via a steep path that includes approximately 20 steps, which may pose challenges for guests with restricted mobility. However, the breathtaking views from the front rooms and balconies make the climb worthwhile. The cottages serve as a perfect base for exploring the diverse attractions of Northwest Wales, including beautiful beaches, scenic mountains, and charming villages. Nearby, visitors can engage in various activities such as birdwatching, hiking, and enjoying local wildlife, particularly at the nearby Parc y Borth nature reserve, which is home to an array of bird species.

The village of Borth-y-Gest is surrounded by tranquil woodlands and offers easy access to several stunning beaches via a well-maintained coastal path. The safe swimming conditions at low to incoming tides make it a family-friendly destination. A short 10-minute walk leads to the vibrant harbor town of Porthmadog, known for its rich maritime history and a variety of shops and restaurants. The town also serves as a starting point for both the Welsh Highland Railway and Ffestiniog Railway, providing scenic train journeys through the stunning landscapes of the region.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the Snowdonia National Park is just two miles away, offering an extensive network of walking, cycling, and mountain biking trails suitable for all abilities. The park is renowned for its breathtaking scenery, including the highest mountain and largest natural lake in Wales. Additionally, Portmeirion, an architecturally unique tourist village, is located approximately three miles from the cottages and attracts numerous visitors each year. With its rich history, beautiful surroundings, and a plethora of outdoor activities, Bryn Gwyn and Tegfryn provide an exceptional holiday experience in one of Wales' most beautiful regions.
