I want to take the family to North Wales on holiday in July and wondered if anyone knows of cheap accommodation (Hotel, Lodge, or Static caravan) near Porthmadog or Caernarfon. I want to stay for 3 nights starting 19th july 2010. My budget for accommodation is £200 – £300 but obviously the cheaper the accommodation the more to spend on things to do.. Please do not include camp sites as I have been there and done that and with my tribe it just doesn’t work.
Have a look at the Welsh Tourist Board’s accomodation website:
http://www.visitwales.co.uk/holiday-accommodation-in-wales/wales-holiday-accommodation-search-cottages-b-and-b-hotels/
and select option 4, Snowdonia Mountains and Coast.
A good location would be:

handy for Porthmadog and Black Rock Sands, a beach you can drive on to.
There are a couple of static caravan parks in the Dinas beach area (south west of Caernarfon) but check out the locations on a map carefully – it can be a bit of a drive to tourist attractions other than Dinas beach.
