Everyone loves staying at Bron-y-Gader

We offer an affordable solution for groups of friends adventuring in and around Snowdonia. Our remote location has jaw dropping views right from the window, inspiration for where to explore next. Despite this you won’t have to go too far to reach civilisation. Conwy with its vibrant atmosphere and many great places to eat and drink is just 8 miles away. Just on from that is Llandudno, a favourite of Lewis Carroll. And when you get back you’ll be safe in the knowledge you can light the woodburner and have a cosy night in with friends.

New to Independent Hostels!

If you are looking to stay somewhere that little bit different, at a very reasonable price, your search could well be over. Darsham Country Centre is away from the crowds yet close to a heritage coastline. You’ll have fantastic beaches, wildlife reserves and great walking within a few miles. Then for added interest and quirkiness you will be staying in the old station and station master’s house on the Ipswich to Lowestoft line (trains pass once an hour). Children will love it.
