Links

We use three different areas and they are long distances apart. For instance, you wouldn't want to book accommodation in Pontrhydfendigaid and then find you are riding near Dolgellau - they are 90 miles and 2 hours journey from each other! Please ask if you are not sure where it would be best to stay.

A range of accommodation is available:

Our house

The accommodation is open plan with 4 beds upstairs and 1 small double bed downstairs. Breakfast is provided, and an evening meal can be ordered if you prefer not to go out. The living area has Sky TV, DVD player and CD player/radio. Download the menu and price list (rtf format which should be OK for most of you.)
