Porthmadog 1.1 miles.
Nestled in the idyllic village of Borth-y-Gest near Porthmadog is this wonderful three-bedroom terraced house, Bryn Derfel.
Enjoying close proximity to the village’s picturesque harbour and all the delights of the neighbouring Porthmadog, Bryn Derfel is a fantastic dog-friendly dwelling for a group or family of six, plus their canine companion.
Park up at the roadside and be greeted by a charming front enclosed patio with table and chairs, the perfect spot for savouring your morning coffee.
Be welcomed into the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy dishwasher, here you can cook up delicious meals for your loved ones, ready to enjoy at the breakfast bar, dining table for six or alfresco in the rear enclosed garden which has two dining spots! After dinner, why not savour the last of the day’s sunshine out in the rear garden, where you can sip a glass of wine out on the patio or raised terrace with lovely picnic bench and fire pit, before enjoying a game of table tennis or darts in the garage, which also offers plenty of storage for bikes and kayaks! As the evening grows darker, retire to the contemporary sitting room, where you can snuggle up on the plush seating and select a family favourite on the Smart TV, as your pooch takes up their favourite spot in front of the electric fire.
Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can wash away the day in the large double shower, before catching your rest in one of three well-appointed bedrooms, a super-king-size with zip/link, a king-size with Smart TV and a single with truckle, all with plenty of storage for your belongings.
Explore your local surroundings, where you can enjoy leisurely walks along the harbour followed by a hearty breakfast or sweet treat at the Seaview Café Bistro & Coffee Lounge.
For a wider selection of amenities, head into Porthmadog, where you can explore the Maritime Museum, dine at the welcoming eateries of Banc, The Australia and The Port Café Deli & Restaurant, or hop aboard a vintage steam train and relax as you soak up the amazing views for 14-miles along the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways.
Other activities include the Traeth Glaslyn North Wales Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve, the Black Rock Llamas, the excellent Porthmadog Golf Club, and the golden sands of Morfa Bychan, where you can bathe, paddle the shores or take your kayak out on the Afon Dwyryd.
From here you can easily access the historic town of Criccieth, where you will find the remarkable Castell Criccieth, Criccieth Beach and the Castle Gallery.
For more of North Wales’ historic sights, head to Harlech, home to its own magnificent castle, or continue onto Caernarfon, with its Word Heritage 13th-century castle, Segontium Roman Fort, the Royal Welch Fusiliers Museum, and the Hanging Tower.
Those seeking the very best of the outdoors can venture into the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, where you can tackle the famous Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) Peak or enjoy a day of fun at the Zip World LLechwedd.
Adventure awaits at Bryn Derfel.

This is not the case.
The freezer is a small mini...
