Description:
Stay below the impressive Glyder mountains with views of the Nant Ffrancon Valley at this former quarry manager’s cottage.

All levels of walks can be found in the immediate area, and you won’t need to travel far for world-class mountain bike trails. It’s perfectly placed for strolls to see Rhaeadr Ogwen Waterfalls or Cwm Idwal nature reserve (with its dramatic lake) and Devil’s Kitchen.
