Ref: 1026 Islwyn 
LLANBERIS Caernarfon 7 miles; Bangor 10 miles; Betws-y-Coed 17 miles. 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. The Property: Islwyn Llanberis 3 miles.

Jul 2008 | We enjoyed the holidays in this lovely, good furnished, very clean cottage. The site in Dinorwig next to the slaterdumps and the view of the Snowdon were beautiful. We liked to sit in the later afternoon in the nice winter garden, enjoying this view.

Property situation excellent for walkers & climbers - very close to Llanberis, Padern Country Park and old quarry, all having a large number of walks - but also very good access to beaches of Lleyn Peninsula and Anglsey.
