Overview

At an elevation of 290m (950ft) in the foothills of Snowdonia, with direct access to many paths and tracks leading to the mountains of the Carneddau range, with its seven peaks over 3000 feet, Bron-y-Gader Bunkhouse has an enviable position. Remote and isolated, yet just 8 miles from the bustling town of Conwy, 10 miles from Betws-y-Coed and 2 miles from the village of Tal-y-bont with its pub and shop. The beaches of Llandudno and the many high adrenaline attractions of Snowdonia such as Zip World, Surf Snowdonia and Adventure Parc Snowdonia are just a short drive away. It is also conveniently located close to the end of the Welsh 3000s Challenge route and is within Snowdonia's International Dark Sky Reserve. Owned by small registered charity, the Blackburn & District Outdoor Pursuits Centre Trust, the bunkhouse is run entirely by volunteers and offers great value accommodation for groups of up to 37 across 6 rooms. All groups have sole use of the bunkhouse which has a fully equipped stainless steel kitchen, a small dining room seating 12 and a large hall which doubles as a dining room for large groups and an activity room. There’s a separate cosy living room with a wood burner and there is also a well equipped drying room. BYO sleeping bags, pillows and logs/coal for the wood burner. Dogs welcome by prior arrangement. This accommodation is featured on our map of Snowdonia and North Wales and here is its own website.

News & Offers from Bron-y-Gader Bunkhouse

In 1969, when man first set foot on the moon, a ‘star’ was found in Snowdonia

July 21st 2019

50 years ago, when mankind made its journey to the moon, the founding trustees of our charity journeyed to Snowdonia and found what was to become Bron-y-Gader Outdoor Pursuits Centre and Bunkhouse.

In 1969, the derelict farm had no roof, crumbling walls and no basic services. Lots of hard work mostly by volunteers of our charity, The Blackburn & District Outdoor Pursuits Centre Trust, with a little professional help, has turned the crumbling wreck into the ‘star’ bunkhouse it is today. This centre now has mains electricity and ground sourced filtered water but has retained it’s original rustic remote farmhouse feel.

From this isolated and peaceful spot, 290m (950ft) up in the foothills of Snowdonia, overlooking the Conwy valley between Llandudno and Betws-y-Coed, you can walk directly up to the Carneddau mountain range and beyond. Alternatively you can drive down to the many varied attractions of the Snowdonia National Park. The beaches of Llandudno, the castle at Conwy, the fun and thrills at Zip World are only a short drive away. Surf Snowdonia and Adventure Parc Snowdonia are within 3 miles and mountain biking in the Gwydir Forest from Betws-y-Coed is only 10 miles away.
