This waterside apartment has harbour views from the Living Room and Bedroom 1. It is also next to Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Steam Railway Station where the occasional steam train can be heard in the distance as it slowly leaves on its journey into Snowdonia. Prefect base to either going out exploring North Wales or just seat back, relax and enjoy the view!

Another great stay!

We have stayed here many times now, we really love the location just across from the station and so close to the high street and shops. We also really enjoy having the lovely harbour views from the apartment, with glimpses of the trains and access out onto the terrace. We will definitely return again. Would love to see the curtains repaired though for our next visit, they seem to be falling off more each time we come! Other than that the apartment has everything you need and is very well equipped for a holiday apartment.

No 82 is nicely located alongside Porthmadog harbour with excellent views as well as very convenient for the Ffestiniog railway station over the road. The property was warm and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. It would suit someone with limited mobility as there is plenty of room for wheelchair storage, handrails are provided at suitable locations and a walk in shower. The town centre is a very short walk away with a choice of shops and eating places even though we were 'out of season'.

This was our third time staying here. We absolutely love the location, the view over the harbour from the lounge and bedroom is so lovely. The apartment has everything you need and is comfortable for a family of four. The porch area is great for wet coats etc and very handy having an extra fridge and freezer. We'll definitely return again.

The moment you walk into No. 82 Glaslyn Bridge you feel at home. If the weather is beautiful there are a myriad of things to do, or just sit outside and watch the trains and boats. If the weather is not so good just to sit and watch the changing light and view is enjoyable and relaxing. The company STS are always there on hand with help in a courteous manner. The apartment, location and management and the lovely cleaning lady cannot be faulted. Can't wait to go again

We have stayed with STS before, and as always, the extras (additional towels for our second week) we'd requested were supplied and waiting for us. If I have a criticism it is that there are no windows that can safely be left open overnight.

The location is superb with its view of the harbour and almost merits 6/5

Used this apartment on two or three previous occasions and it was always impeccably presented. The location is brilliant, with a great view and (weather permitting) a terrace that is sun drenched from morning 'til evening. A new television was good this year as it allowed me to access both Prime and Netflix on my own accounts. Very convenient for access to the town and also Spooners bar and cafe and the heritage railways. Overall, a terrific destination with the bonus of fine weather throughout this stay

Our third visit to this property and we had a lovely week, relaxing in the super weather, in this very well situated accommodation. We had all we needed for the times we didn't venture far. The apartment is geared up to be more accessible and its decor reflects an older taste but it is always clean, tidy and well presented. For us, its location and comfort are the overriding positives, hence being returning visitors.

The downside (externally) is the speed at which cars leaving the wider housing development pass by the allocated parking space which, coupled with the large bush immediately adjacent to the space, mean you must proceed with caution. It would seem some residents are completely unaware that other drivers exist. We resorted to having one of us stood in the road to act as traffic warden!

We would absolutely book to stay again as we know we'll have all we need, in a location that offers us what we're looking for in a short break.

We absolutely loved this apartment and have already booked again for next year. The view of the harbour is beautiful, entrancing and relaxing; the proximity to the railway is also a real bonus. We particularly appreciate the apartment being all ground floor and having a comfortable, high-backed sofa and chairs in the living area, as well as a large, walk-in shower with grab rails/stool. Being able to park right by the front door is very useful, as is the porch area with freezer, fridge and washer/dryer.

We have used the services of STS Holidays many times before (although this was our first stay at Glaslyn Harbour Views) and very much appreciate their helpfulness, friendliness and willingness to accommodate our specific medical needs. We couldn't have asked for more, either from the staff or the property.

We had a very relaxing stay in an apartment that had all the equipment you could ever need. Beautiful position. Spotlessly clean. STS Holidays are a very friendly company who you can contact if you need them and are really helpful. We will certainly be booking no. 82 again. Just wish they were in Scotland when we go later this month! Thank you

This was the first time we have stayed at this apartment. The location is fantastic, just a few steps from the station, various pubs and the main high street. The views of the harbour from the main bedroom and lounge are great. The apartment feels very cosy with carpet in the lounge and bedrooms, the rooms are more spacious than they appear on the photos. It's very well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a week away. The tea/coffee/milk is a really nice touch especially when you arrive late and haven't had a chance to go shopping. I guess the upstairs neighbours might bother you if they are particularly noisy, we could hear people moving around but it didn't bother us at all. So good to have the spacious porch area so you can leave coats/shoes out of the main accommodation, especially if it's been raining! We will definitely be staying again.

This is a brilliant location overlooking the harbour also the Ffestiniog railway station is next door ! What more could you want !! The accommodation is extremely comfortable it is all on one level (except for small step at front entrance). The accommodation is suitable for all but from my view being disabled it is ideal. The shower room is adapted for disabled and there are rails around the property for extra support. There are two bedrooms which are very comfortable. Then we come to the lounge which faces the harbour so you can relax looking out what more could you want.

Glaslyn Harbour views was the ideal location for a short post Covid recovery break during a 'heat wave'.. With wonderful views over the harbour the accommodation offers immediate access onto a sun filled terrace whilst shade is provided by the overhand of the apartment above.

We took the opportunities to eat out locally down the main street for the short time we were at the apartment so didn't really test ourselves with the challenge of the compact kitchen. The places we chose to eat did not disappoint.

The apartment was ideal for our particular circumstances although I do think it was expensive when considering the fact that we only had two full days in it.

This was our 2nd visit to this flat and again we was not disappointed. Just across the the steam train, and close to the buses. The view was very good, the beds comfortable. Just a short walk into Porthmadoc. We will be back again later this year all being well.

Could not be a better location. Overlooking the harbour and village this let is the perfect location for exploring either on foot or by steam train. The flat has everything we needed and is very comfy. The local shops are a cocks stride away and local pubs and restaurants are also very close by. Will def stay again.

For goodness sake replace the shower with a proper one !

With out the option of a bath in the property the shower
that is currently fitted is a joke!!!

This apartment was immaculate when we arrived. Right in the harbour, it was in the ideal location for amazing harbour views. Many hours spent in the rocking chair watching the boats through the patio doors. My only negatives were the size of the single parking space which was tight for my estate car and the garden pots on the outdoor patio could have done with a refresh as they looked a little abandoned. Great customer service and communication from STS too. We hope to return.

We can't praise this property enough extremely comfortable with a lovely outlook and very handy for the trains being just across the yard.
A great shame that Spooners are not doing food at the moment owing to a lack of staff but hopefully that will change over time.
This was our fifth visit to Portmadoc and this was certainly the best accommodation we have had. We also had great service from Snowdonia Tourist Services.
