Llandanwg is a quiet and peaceful hamlet situated not far from the town of Harlech. It has a wonderful beach, ideal for families, which has won a clean beach award for 2007. Nestled within the sand dunes is the fourteenth century St.Tanwg's church, which holds candlelit services once a month, at which you would be most welcome. Enjoy refreshments at the beach café, Y Maes Cafe whilst enjoying spectacular views of the Llyn peninsula and beyond.

Bird Watching and Nature walks are regularly organised locally, from the beach car park by Brian McDonald. Guided tours of Mountains, woods, rivers, and sea shore and estuary can also be arranged. Please let us know your requirements, or contact Brian on 01341 421469. www.wildlifewales.f9.co.uk.

Many of our guests, and my husband, come to Llandanwg for the wildlife. Seals on the beach, dolphins in the bay and a large variety of bird habitats.

and many more.

The Town of Porthmadog and the Italian Village, built by William Clough Ellis "Portmeirion"(www.portmeirion-village.com) are half an hour by car to the north, whilst to the south is the seaside town of Barmouth, with its beach and the picturesque Mawddach Estuary, ideal for walking or cycling.

Bikes can be hired from Chris at the Birmingham Garage, if you don't wish to bring your own.

Further down the Estuary is the old county town of Dolgellau and Coed y Brenin Forest, a mountain biker's paradise.
