Company information

We have owned the property since 2019 and love seeing the fantastic sea and mountain views every day.

Property information

The Awel Mor is a four storey Victorian terraced house dating back to the 1850's. Originally built for the sea Captains who sailed out of Porthmadog so that their families could see them leave or wait for their arrival in the Bay. Unrestricted views of Cardigan Bay across to Harlech and beyond can be enjoyed from the front of the property

Neighbourhood information

Criccieth is a delightfully unspoilt seaside town on the Llyn Peninsula. The Awel Mor is situated directly across the road from the beach and the coastal path. The historic Criccieth Castle can be seen from our front patio and is just a short stroll away as are the many tea rooms, pubs, shops and excellent restaurants that are in the small town of Criccieth. Ideally situated between the towns of Porthmadog and Pwllheli and close to all the attractions of the Llyn Peninsula and the Snowdonia National Park makes it a perfect base for outdoor enthusiasts.
