Guests are charmed by the stunning sea views and prime location of 'The Towers - Ardudwy', with its proximity to the beach and local amenities.

While some guests mention a very firm bed and minor maintenance issues, the overall experience is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Or if you prefer something more leisurely, simply take a walk along the coastal path. Ride through stunning scenery by steam train, or walk around the Italianate village of Portmeirion.
Ardudwy, Castell and Llŷn are three recently renovated apartments in The Towers, sleeping 11 in total. They can be let individually or all together.
Often described as the 'Pearl of Wales on the shores of Snowdonia’, this delightful seaside town is situated just 5 miles from Porthmadog. The town’s 13th century castle perches majestically on a rocky outcrop, dominating the skyline and offering superb views of Tremadog Bay and the Snowdonia mountains. Watersports enthusiasts will be delighted by the two beaches, whilst walkers and bikers are spoilt for choice by the proximity of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. Stroll along the beaches, watch porpoises playing in the surf, or relax in the various pubs, restaurants and tea rooms, sampling the famous Cadwalader’s ice cream. Further afield, attractions such as Portmeirion’s wonderful Italianate gardens, the Ffestiniog railway in Porthmadog, Harlech Castle, Caernarfon Castle and the beautiful beaches and renowned golf courses of the Llyn Peninsula are all within an easy drive.

Perfect break for a couple. Amazing views and we were very lucky with the weather. Criccieth is a lovely base for exploring North Wales. Thankyou

On arrival we were very disappointed to find a very dirty apartment. The floors hadn't been cleaned and were covered in food debris and hair. I had to get on my hands and knees with a brush and dustpan and sweep all the floors, including the carpets. Then I had to wash the crockery and cutlery as they had dried food stuck to them. The kitchen work surfaces also had food debris and spilt coffee on them. This was not the start to my holiday that I expected. The toaster also didn't work unless you held the button down. Once the apartment was clean we had a lovely holiday. Just a shame basic cleanliness wasn't addressed.
