The area has just been declared a World Heritage Site for the remains of the slate industry, and this can be explored at several sites including the National Museum at Llanberis, Llechwedd in Blaenau Ffestiniog and the Ffestiniog Railway running from there to Porthmadog; plenty for the keen amateur industrial archaeologist to explore.

This was our second time at Ty Newydd. A comfortable, well appointed cottage, close to some excellent local ammenities and an excrllent base for touring North Wales. Garden is lovely, especially if you enjoy watching birds feeding. Kitchen is very well equipped and the layout of dining room/kitchen/living room and TV area is very good and being as spacious as it is, suited the 5 adults in our party very well. Bedroom and bathroom facilities are really good and the master suite is exceptional.

Very spacious indoors with an exquisite small garden. Handy for local attractions; we all loved our trip to Portmerrion. Ideal cottage for a relaxing stay, but also excellent wifi if you want it!

The cottage was very clean, close to all amenities, plenty of room, exceptional welcome pack and added bonus of parking for two vehicles. Claire was very helpful with all the information for the cottage and replied promptly to any queries we had. Would definitely recommend the cottage and hope to return again.
