Gwen
Is
our 7 year old Border Collie and apart from loving all of
the activities and the people who come to us she is also

Where
we are :
We are based at our traditional Welsh hill farm
in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park where the Rhinog
Mountains meet the sea in the beautiful picturesque village
of Llanbedr, 2 miles from Harlech. We are only 40 minutes
from the foot of Snowdon, and the same distance from Cader
Idris, perhaps the second most well known mountain in the
south of the National Park. We are also only 30 minutes
from the world renowned National Mountain Bike Centre in
the Coed Y Brenin Forest.
Being centrally based we have the best of both worlds, we
have the better weather of the coast but can get quickly
and easily to any mountain venue. The Rhinog Mountains behind
us are far quieter and feel more remote than the frequented
Snowdon area. For further details visit:

How to get to us :
The Village of Llanbedr is halfway between Barmouth
and Harlech on the A496. You can also get here by train. But
please note that Llanbedr's a request stop so be sure to tell
the conductor you want to get off there.
