A pleasant walk through the Coed y Brenin forest will bring you to the interesting site of the old Gwynfynydd gold mine and two impressive water falls. The Trains
Portmeirion The famous Italianate village of Portmeirion, where ‘The Prisoner’ was filmed, is only twenty minutes from here. Activities Nearby sporting activities include golf, swimming, sailing, wind-surfing, climbing, walking, pony-trekking, birdwatching, mountain biking, white water rafting and fishing, all set against the spectacular backdrop of the natural beauty of the Snowdonia National Park. Walkers and Cyclists For serious walkers, we are situated close to the foot of the Rhinog mountains. The Cader range and Snowdon are all within easy reach.
For mountain bike enthusiasts, the new Trawsfynydd lake bike trail passes alongside the farm and we are close to the famous Coed y Brenin forest trails. We have safe storage for bikes and can provide black plastic bags and newspaper for the wet and muddy who return after risking life and limb on some of the tougher trails. Local Events Sheep shearing competitions, village carnivals, sheep dog trials and Welsh Choral Evenings all offer the opportunity to mix with local people and hear the Welsh language.
