What makes this property unique
The quaint cottage in the heart of Eryri features off road private parking and is in the perfect location leave your car for the duration of the trip. Located at the foot of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), the town of Llanberis features a number of activities, attractions and historical sites, meaning much can be explored by foot. Hikers will be keen to take the epic hike up Yr Wyddfa along the Llanberis path, which begins on the outskirts of the town. Walking is not the only option - the Yr Wyddfa Mountain Railway station is a ten minute walk from the property, and transports passengers three quarters of the way up the mountain to Clogwyn Station. There is the opportunity to walk the remainder of the route from here, or take the more relaxing journey back by train, enjoying the epic surrounding scenery.
To learn about the heritage of the local slate landscape, recently awarded UNESCO World Heritage status, the National Slate Museum is located on the opposite side of Llyn Padarn. Entry to the museum is free and it's a great day out for all the family, and a fabulous learning experience for all. While you're over the other side of the lake, take the Zig Zag Path up to the Dinorwic Quarry and see the remains of the old quarry buildings including Anglesey Barracks - two rows of cottages that were home to miners working in the quarry. It's a fascinating place, and offers awesome views across to Yr Wyddfa, Llyn Peris and Llyn Padarn. You might even spot the remains of Dolbadarn Castle down below, built in the thirteenth century by Llywelyn the Great.
The lakeside setting of Llanberis makes it popular with water sports lovers and is a hub for numerous outdoor sporting events in the summer. Llyn Padarn is a fantastic spot for kayaking or Stand Up Paddleboarding, and there are opportunities to hire the equipment locally and get out on the water. It's a safe setting for those less confident, with some shallow and calm inlets on the lake which are ideal for practicing. Once all the activities are done, Llanberis is packed full of vibrant and independent cafes, shops and pubs making it the ideal place to chill out after a day out exploring on the mountains, or in the water. The perfect base for a North Wales mountain holiday.
