Snaptrip says
Seaview Apartment in Barmouth is highly praised for its cleanliness, stunning views, and friendly owners. Guests appreciate the thoughtful welcome gifts and the property's proximity to local attractions. The steep access is noted, but the rewarding views seem to compensate for this challenge.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The apartment consistently receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being 'spotlessly clean' and well-maintained.
The location is celebrated for its beautiful views and proximity to the town and scenic walks. However, the steep hill access is a recurring concern, especially for those with mobility issues.
Guests find the apartment comfortable and cosy, with a few suggestions for additional seating and clearer instructions for amenities like refuse bins and washing facilities.
The facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and welcome pack. Some guests noted the lack of a freezer and issues with a washing machine and clothes hoist, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
The owners are commended for their thoughtfulness, providing welcome gifts such as milk, eggs, and bread. However, it is politely noted that such gifts may not suit all preferences, such as those with dietary restrictions, and their inclusion is not guaranteed.
About this property
This lovely apartment is elevated high above the town with far-reaching views over the rooftops, Barmouth Beach, Cardigan Bay and stretching as far as the eye can see. Accessed up a steep lane, not suitable for vehicles and with several steps to the apartment itself, youll certainly be fitter leaving than when you arrived, but itll be worth it when rewarded with the superb views and welcoming apartment. This is a perfect base for a seaside holiday for an active outdoor couple but definitely not suitable for guests with challenged mobility. This delightful apartment, on The Rock in Barmouth really ticks all the boxes. Sensational Sunsets, breathe taking views over the glistening ocean, harbour and the Mawddach estuary, encompassing the Cadair Idris mountain range.
Winding your way up the hill will give you a taste of whats to come when you gaze back on yourself, simply to enjoy the views on your way up! The apartment is well-presented and comfortable, a welcoming sitting room immediately draws you in to the large bay window with a window sear, where you can sit and relax, just enjoying the views or read that book youve been meaning to finish! The dining area is comfortable and the modern kitchen is well-equipped, catering for all your needs. The well-presented bedroom with comfy double bed will ensure a good nights sleep and the en-suite bathroom, with bath for a relaxing soak, completes this lovely apartment. There is no designated parking, but guests will have a parking permit for the main car park 400m away at no extra cost to you. Miles of sweeping sandy beaches and stunning walks are just a stones throw from Seaview apartment. As well as the stunning location, the apartment is only a 5 minutes walk to Barmouth town centre with its shops and good pubs/eateries. This popular area is also ideal for sailing and watersports enthusiasts, as well as providing some of the best mountain biking, with Coed y Brenin, the largest mountain bike trail centre in Wales, being only 12 miles away. Further afield, explore the stunning architectural gem of Portmeirion, take a historical trip to Harlech Castle with its visitor centre or enjoy the industrial heritage of Blaenau Ffestiniog slate works, steam railway, Zip World Titan, Zip Caverns or Bounce Below, an underground trampoline
Surrounded by The Snowdonia National Park, this lovely apartment is ideally situated for that getaway holiday anytime of the year.

Access up a very steep hill but worth it for the view. Milk tea, coffee etc was provided and much appreciated. The owner was very helpful when contacted with queries and the car park permit was great, giving parking in Barmouth and many other towns. Overall we had an enjoyable, quiet and relaxing break.

Good communication with Sykes and the hosts prior to and during the stay, key collection was straightforward. Lovely to have bread, milk, eggs, juice, tea and coffee (and some treats) supplied. Amazed at how many people remark on the steep climb to the apartment - yes, it is steep, but surely it shouldn't come as a surprise? Barmouth is lovely, so much to do and everyone is so friendly.
