This is your opportunity to have the whole of this comfortable spacious bunkhouse to yourself. Set at the heart of a Welsh speaking village in the Carneddau mountains, this is a real escape from city life.

We’ve decided to open at half of our capacity for sole use for the time being. Its with a sorry heart we can not offer single or twin rooms to individual guests at the moment.  Hopefully it wont be long when we can get back to running our bunkhouse in pre covid style.
