Resting on the Glaslyn Estuary is this bustling harbour town, Porthmadog. A major hub, Porthmadog offers a wealth of shops, restaurants, pubs, cafés and attractions, such as the narrow-gauge Ffestiniog railway, running all the way to Caernarfon. The pretty village of Borth Y Gest, with its cliffs and coves, is a short walk from the village, while a little further afield lies the Italianate style village of Portmeirion, perfect for a day out.
