Explore

We really wouldn’t blame you for wanting to spend your days tucked up at this cosy woodland retreat, but if you did want to venture out, there is so much to explore right on your doorstep. Travel wild open roads surrounded by heather moorlands and discover these Welsh gems… The cabin itself is nestled in the foothills of Snowdonia National Park. This world-famous National Park boasts awe-inspiring walking and hiking trails, which wind their way around majestic mountains and tranquil lakes. A few miles down the road from the cabin, in the charming village of Llangernyw, you’ll find a local inn serving delicious food by the crackling log fire. This popular inn does one of the best Sunday roasts around and also offers a takeaway option, including rustic wood-fired pizzas. In the other direction, you’ll reach the picturesque town of Llanrwst, perfect for a morning stroll across its gorgeous triple arched bridge, discovering its beautiful chapels. Betws Y Coed is another village, nestled within Snowdonia National Park, which is home to lovely eateries, numerous attractions and a distinctly Alpine inspired atmosphere, enhanced by the dense Gwydir Forest and mountainous backdrop.

For coastal scenery head to Conwy, a mediaeval town with irresistible charm that will transport you back in time. This captivating town is steeped with history and beauty, enclosed by its perfectly preserved 13th-century walls. Wander through its gorgeous cobbled streets, adorned with independent shops and welcoming cafes, with the majestic Conwy Castle in the background. You can easily explore the stunning north Wales coastline from here, including a vast choice of beaches, from Morfa Beach to Anglesey.

Adventure seekers will love the variety of attractions north Wales has on offer. Including the Forest Coaster and Zip World, Go Below Underground Adventures, Surf Snowdonia, and the fantastic Highland Railway. The Carneddau Mountains are also within reaching distance, a great spot for mountain biking. Llyn Brenig offers bike hire, fishing and a lovely cafe so you can enjoy a coffee and cake after the 10-mile circular walk!
