The views are stunning, you will almost certainly see wild Welsh mountain ponies and in the spring new born foals. The higher mountains (over 3000 ft ) are a bit further down the valley. The Gwydir forrest is a fantastic place to explore on foot with marked routes dedicated to walkers. We are within easy reach of the major tourist attractions and just 5 minutes drive to the sandy beaches of the Conwy coast. Close to the town of Conwy we get some of the best weather, less than half the rainfall of the area around Snowdon.
