I stayed at Castell back in April and unlike the previous viewer i found both Bethan and Bridgett to be friendly, genuine and accomodating...such a welcome relief after a long journey. Breakfast was well cooked and plentyful. The Castell has a great view overlooking the harbour...and it's also in a convenient location for the Welsh Coastal path and some lovely... More

The bathroom and toilet doors will not fasten shut from inside which may be OK in your own home but not somewhere with facilities shared by strangers. A couple of bolts is all that's needed. The sugar in my room was old and had been damp so it was solid. Breakfast was at a communal table so you eat alongside... More

Thanks Hazel for your comments. Thankyou also for paying the balance on your account and for your apology, greatly accepted. For the reference of Tripadvisors reading this 'not so nice posting' Hazel admits that she confused the money with another booking in Caernarfon which she had also booked online! Nevermind we all make mistakes, but it was quite a damming... More

I rang Beth last week when we had snow at home and there wasn't any in Wales, I was loathed to pay and book somewhere in case we couldn't go. Beth was happy with that and asked me to advise her on Saturday morning. We arrived late afternoon to a very warm welcome. The rooms were clean and comfortable and... More

Stayed over New Year in one of the self-catering apartments. Fantastic location in Porthmadog with a beatiful view of the harbour. Easy walking distance to all of Porthmadog and neighbouring Borth-Y-Gest. Parking nearby (free - but maybe only in the low season?). As it was self-catering we had a very quiet stay which was perfectly what we wanted. Porthmadog is... More

My boyfriend and I visited Castell on 17th September 2011 and received such a warm, friendly welcome from Beth. Our room was comfortable with a great view of the harbour, the shower was lovely and breakfast was outstanding. For such a reasonable price we feel we received first class service and have no hesitation in recommending Castell to friends and... More

Booked on the basis of other TA reviews. Our room had a great view, but our side of the window things were not up to standard. Carpets needed cleaning; there was a general lack of attention to detail e.g. there was no glass of any kind in the en-suite. At breakfast our scrambled egg was more grey than yellow -... More

Thank you for your kind comments We inspected the bed and sure enough it was very creaky as a result we have now sorted this problem and with the addition of wood glue as well as the bolts tighted up the bed will now provide a silent night hope to see you again soon. Best regards Beth and Mike. More

We recently stayed at Porthmadog B&B run by Beth. All rooms were comfortable and clean and Beth's hospitality outstanding. We were made to feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was plentiful in choice and quantity, and very well presented. The location was superb with fantastic views out over the harbour and railway from our rooms. We... More

10 of us took over the B&B for 1 night after a friend's wedding in Portmerrion. Beth looked after us brilliantly and her hospitality was second to none. As we were all friends staying, I got to see every room and all were spotless - as was the whole house. The full Welsh breakfast the next morning was outstanding but... More
