It's just a short walk down to the bay, where you'll find the village tearoom and restaurant. This corner of North Wales has some of the most breathtaking scenery in the United Kingdom, and you'll find plenty of good restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets! There are some fantastic attractions just a short drive away. Wander around the Italianate village of Portmeirion, or climb to the top of Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales and England. You can ride on the newly extended Welsh Highland Railway, which runs to Caernarfon through picturesque Aberglaslyn, or relax on the wonderful sandy beach of Black Rock Sands.
The bustling harbour town of Porthmadog lies on the Glaslyn Estuary and enjoys a stunning setting. The gateway to the Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog is full of individual shops and restaurants, and home to the Ffestiniog Railway, where you can travel by steam through spectacular Snowdonia scenery, to Blaenau Ffestiniog. The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk or drive from the town. The well known and unique Italianate village of Portmeirion is just down the coast. Situated on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula, Portmeirion, famous as the location of the TV show The Prisoner and the final episode of Cold Feet, is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and woodlands. The area also boasts castles at Criccieth and Harlech, and superb unspoilt beaches such as Black Rock Sands, where the sands stretch as far as the eye can see. An ideal location for the attractions of Snowdonia and the The Lleyn Peninsula.
