Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Porthmadog

Porthmadog is a small town in the stunning Eifionydd area of Gwynedd, Wales, known simply by locals as' Port'. Blissfully unspoilt, this town offers a unique glimpse into another way of life, with its large population of Welsh speakers, tranquil pace of life and, of course, very easy access to the must-see beauty of the Snowdonia National Park. Rent a Porthmadog holiday cottage with your loved one or the whole family, and feel free to explore all this place has to offer on your own whim, including the charming surrounding villages like Borth-y-Gest or Morfa Bychan. Breathe in the sea air, explore the coves, and let your toes sink into Black Rock sands, with marvellously graded waters just a few metres away. Fun to try with friends is the Holyhead to Cardiff cycle route, taking you past towering mountain ranges and other breathtaking sights.
