The best cafe in Snowdonia- not just our belief but also TripAdvisor's. They cook a varied, seasonal and fresh menu rather than just the usual walkers food. Amazing place for Breakfast to fuel a day's walking- lazy brunch for the day after a long walk - or cake and great coffee for post walk relax. Great cakes and an afternoon tea also available. Not open on Mondays, and if going at the weekend worth making a booking. It's located at the base of Watkin path for Snowdon so great point to start or finish a day.

A good place to grab a bite to eat- alongside some great breakfast (always veg option too), usually some very tasty and different meals to usual cafe expectations. Well worth stopping at and also picking up some food and drink essentials at this great little shop.

Parks & Nature
Iconic as the highest mountain in Wales and England. We'd suggest going at quieter times and using less busy paths.

You can start your walk to Cnicht from the front door of our cottage. Known as the Welsh Matterhorn based on appearance rather than difficulty, this is a great mountain to climb and stunning views of the Welsh coast and Snowdonia Mountain range.
