Harlech Retreat Reviews

Jessica

Wonderful location where you really feel in the heart of the walking playground of Snowdonia. Just to wake up to the views and witness the changing weather and shooting stars. Cosy and well equipped

Samantha

We have been lucky enough to stay in many self catering properties both abroad and in the UK, and we can honestly say, Harlech Retreat was outstanding. We stayed with family aged from 1 to 80 and the Retreat was absolutely perfect for everyone. It was cosy and homely but big enough for everyone to enjoy their own space, with all the facilities you Read morecould want . The most spectacular view you could wish for, no matter what the weather and so much to do in the area. A wonderful home from home! Hide

Ceri

We had a fabulous stay at the beautiful rural farm house, Erw Wen in the Eryri National Park. Yr Wyddfa and mountainous vistas & cardigan bay views were spectacular from here taking in Portmeirion and Criccieth amongst others. A large well equipped modern kitchen and utility. Clean comfy beds. Lovely fireplace to enjoy autumnal & winter nights. StaRead morer gazing is superb with minimal light pollution. The hot tub was a lovely addition. A great base to explore Harlech and yonder. Lovely beaches. Hide

Joe

Its hard to overstate how amazing this place is. It is incredibly special and we had such a wonderful time. The epic view is perfectly matched by the beauty of the property - it has everything. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Jane

This property is in one of the most beautiful situations possible. The view is huge! The accommodation is well designed and provided with anything visiting families could want. Three generations, the four youngest ranging from 6 years to one, had a brilliant time. Thank you
