Impressive art deco influenced house, with contemporary interior design with magnificent elevated sea views from all front rooms and garden. 2 minutes walk down to the sandy coves through a nature reserve. Excellent location for a family holiday.

Stunning views

The location was spectacular.
We enjoyed sitting on the picnic table with our coffee every morning.
The fasicilites in the home were great to have. Good having the utility to dry off dogs and keep our wet sand clothes .
Unfortunately the cleanliness of the house was a little below our other experiences when on vacation.
Overall it was ok. Thank you



Enjoyable family break

Sea View House is in a fantastic location. As it suggests, genuine sea views, and a 5 minute walk to a good beach. The house is accessed by steep stairs which are not for the faint hearted when carrying luggage etc.
Kitchen and Bathrooms are relatively modern and well equipped, living rooms and bedrooms are older style but still comfortable.
Overall the house is good for a family break, although a little expensive for out of season.



We thoroughly enjoyed staying in the house where our father grew up. Magnificent views!

We had a wonderful time enjoying Borth-y-gest and the surrounding countryside.
Bae Borth was a great cafe.
We felt that the house could do with a bit of a spring clean- ie downstairs shower, oven etc.



A lovely house in a perfect situation.

We have been to this house for several years and find it perfect for all the family particularly with its position so close to the beach.

A relaxing week spent watching the ever changing tidal situation in the bay .
Stunning views also of the mountains around Harlech opposite .
Enjoyed strolls into Porthmadog and also used bus service which is frequent and cheap .
A good half day out spent at the Osprey Centre near Tremadog .



Happy families

Borth y Gest and surrounding areas are excellent for beach, and walking holidays and the house is well placed for both. Property is spacious, with good sized rooms. some furniture close to end of life (eg bedroom wardrobes), but generally ok.
Access will make it difficult for some, and garden is also unsuitable for some. Note also that it isn't fully enclosed.
Overall, had a great holiday and would certainly consider returning.



Very good house

The house is in a great location with views across the estuary. It was very well equipped and had everything one might need re: catering/household requirements. The instruction pack was thorough & very helpful. Very comfortable beds/bedding & an excellent downstairs wet room/shower. The only caveat I would add is the large number of steps up to the house could be a problem for for the less mobile or elderly, but the website makes this very clear in advance. A great stay, thank you.

My wife , her sister and me have just enjoyed a wonderful week in this spacious house watching the estuary fill up and then empty almost completely within a space of hours . The backdrop of the mountains opposite , around Harlech , adding to the scenery . We are all around the 70 age and treated the 25 steps upto the house as a challenge . It was only a bit of a struggle on arrrival and departure with the cases etc .
The village is down the hill about 250 metres where you will find a picturesque harbour . It never gets too crowded . There is a good Sea View restaurant and take away there but it is closed on Monday and Tuesday . Very popular so advisable to book , even for breakfast .
Portmadoc is only a 15 minute walk along the coastal path and has all the shops and well worth a visit .
Overall , this house is one of the best that we have ever stopped in. In fact we have booked again for 2023 .



We find the house an excellent choice and STS are always very helpful.

We have been to this house for many years and have booked again for next year. The position is excellent and splendid for families as it is very close to the beach and within easy reach of Porthmadog for shopping and crabbing.
We were pleased to see that the kitchen has been updated and that the instructions for using the various pieces of equipment are in a prominent position (However, explicit instructions for e.g. unlocking the induction hob etc can't be found. These would, if provided, save much time and frustration!) There's a splendid fridge as well as another smaller one.
It is a good idea as well that pieces of lovely furniture have been covered with glass etc to protect them, which removes some of the worry.
It's a spacious, comfortable, well appointed property in a great position.

A fantastic location. Watching the tide, sea views, and weather changes on a daily basis is a holiday in itself.
The spacious house has a homely feel. It is well equipped to cater for those staying.




Very well presented house with a view to die for

Very comfortable house with a very well equipped kitchen. I called in at STD office and suggested that a hair dryer and two more comfortable garden chairs would be a good addition. They were amazing in providing both the dryer and the chairs the same day. Would certainly recommend them and the house to anyone.
