Dominated by the grandeur of the Snowdon Massif, Llanberis is flanked by two lakes, Llyn Padarn and Llyn Peris and is one of the most popular mountain tourist centres in the Snowdonia National Park. In fact, Llanberis is something of a ‘mecca’ for walkers and climbers, being the starting point for the ascent of Snowdon - the highest mountain in England and Wales. The ascent can be made either by train, on the Snowdon Mountain Railway, or on foot along one of the many routes to the summit. Each year, major racing events attract thousands to the area: The fast Snowdon Race to the summit, held in July every year and The Snowdonia Marathon, held in October - a gruelling 26 mile course that starts and finishes in Llanberis, circumnavigating the Snowdon Massif. Within Llanberis itself there are excellent places to eat and drink and a great choice of shopping. Just 7 miles from Llanberis, on the coast, is Caernarfon with its magnificent castle and town walls and close by are National Trust properties at Penrhyn and Plas Newydd.

Our holiday was a lovely break away in a gorgeous location. The cottage had beautiful views and was situated close to lots of lovely walks. Very cosy and comfortable cottage that made a great base for our holiday.

We enjoyed the first class service we had when booking the cottage. It was very simple, the call centre staff were very helpful and nice to deal with. I have spoken to my customers about your great customer service. We have booked another cottage with you on our return from this one. So a very happy customer - many thanks.
