Cosy ground floor flat with patio door opening onto a small private patio and the promenade (marina residents only). Short walk to town, passing the Ffestiniog/WHR narrow gauge railway station.

Very well appointed flat with everything we needed for a very pleasant stay. Lovely views of the harbour and Balast Island. Because we visited after the schools had gone back, it was also very quiet and peaceful. Ideal place if you need to relax and chill a while. We would definitely recommend it and will no doubt rebook in the future.



The appartment was lovely

The appartment was lovely we just found it hard to work the heaters and the hot water in the bathroom. The location was fantastic.

We did call at your office and reported a very black shower anti slip mat - we were promised a replacement the next day but this never arrived!
Please note twin bedroom window is not closing properly.



Wonderful views from harbour flat.

This property is perfectly situated, with views down the channel leading from Porthmadog harbour to the sea.
The main bedroom was comfortable and we used the second bedroom for storage.
Cooking facilities in the kitchen are limited, with just a two ring radiant hob and a combination microwave/ oven.
The microwave/ oven appliance is difficult to operate, relying totally on a touch screen and without any knobs or push buttons. Fine for use at home when the learning curve is completed, but far from ideal when it has to be mastered at the start of a holiday.
The hot water supply is limited, running cold after filling a single washing up bowl. The hot water in the bathroom for the basin is dangerously hot. A larger hot water boiler set to a safer temperature is badly needed. The boiling water tap works well and is fine.
The bathroom shower is good, with plenty of flow. The heated bathroom mirror is an excellent feature for shaving after a shower.
Due an upgrade, but a lot can be forgiven for the view.

Changeover cleaning had not been done on arrival. After cleaning put right and beds made by STS all well. STS provided a kind apology bag. Nice flat. I would have liked rails in shower.
Lovely view. Comfortable beds.

Our stay was in a lovely flat overlooking the harbour. The views were spectacular looking towards the harbour and The Cob. Hearing the steam trains at Porth Madog station was lovely too. The flat was well equipped, although a little “bijou” shall we say, comfortable for our party of two people and a little dog, but could be a tight squeeze for four. Lovely decor and very up to date. The only drawback was that the shower had not been cleaned properly, there were old soap tablets left on the soap dish and the container for the bath mat and shower squeegee was very dirty, however, the rest of the flat was very clean. The patio area was a lovely sun trap in the late afternoon and evening, very nice to sit outside and look at the boats bobbing about. On the whole a lovely stay.

Delighted. We hope to be back sometime soon. My wife is handicapped so getting sorted for leaving by 10 am was last minute pressure, 11 am would have been more relaxing. Pity the rain can enter onto the patio through the above one. As we had plenty of rain it meant little use could be made of it.



Very enjoyable.

What a lovely, peaceful place to stay yet within walking distance of the town and its amenities. The accommodation was very good and the instructions for keys, parking etc. etc. were clear and easy to follow (always a bonus when going somewhere new). A microwave would have been a useful addition to the kitchen and I was a little surprised that we were asked to leave the property tidy and clean. Tidy - no problem as we always do this anyway, but clean! I felt that this was a bit cheeky as upto now I've never been asked to clean somewhere before we leave, but no big deal. Job done.



A perfect location for a holiday in Porthmadog

An excellent location on South Snowdon Quay, with fantastic views all round. The property catches afternoon sun perfectly and the patio area is well shielded from passing walkers with the bushes in front. It’s expensive, but of high quality. The main bedroom is well shielded from the sun and stayed cool during the recent heatwave.
There was a complaint from the visitors before us about the bench on the patio being “unsafe”. We managed fine with it, just by resting the back against the wall to steady it. Some of the joints have worked a bit loose, but it’s easily fixed. Take out the screws, open the joints, feed some wood glue in to the joints and reassemble. A fuss about nothing! The same comment applies to the combination oven and microwave which some users seem to find hard to operate. The instructions are good and operation is quite intuitive. We found it very useful.
The air boosted electric shower is excellent and manages to provide plenty of flow. The limited hot water capacity for wash basin and sink has to be managed carefully, but we soon got used to it.
The combination hot/cold/boiling water tap worked very well, but is starting to work loose where it passes through the worktop. A five minute job for a plumber or competent handyman re-tightening the securing nut underneath.
Some minor amendments to the visitor information pack. The hob works very well and we cooked on it frequently. It’s not an induction hob though- it’s a radiant ring type.
Worth also mentioning that the excellent illuminated and heated mirror in the bathroom is activated by pressing the touch button in the centre mirror panel. We recharged the cordless electric vacuum cleaner before use because the battery was flat and recharged again afterwards for the next user. Maybe one to mention in the visitor instructions.
An excellent property and we’ll definitely be back.

A beautiful location and very convenient for the town and railways. Detailed instructions on how to find the flat were very helpful.
We were lucky with the weather and able to enjoy evening sunshine on the patio. (Chairs and table provided). The flat was well equipped and little extras that made this property special included - Binoculars, Smart TV and a boiling water tap. We didn't miss a dishwasher or washing machine but some might.

We really enjoyed our stay at lovely comfortable Waters Edge. Conveniently placed but we were disappointed with the lack of places to eat out in Porthmadog.
