Things to Do
We are situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty. This really is the place "Where the mountains meat the sea".
Below is just a small selection of activities you can immerse yourself in whilst you stay with us.
Stand Up Paddle Boarding
The Mawddach Estuary offers the perfect back drop to try out SUP. Drop in at Barmouth and let the tide take you all the way to Penmaenpool and the George III Public house for a refreshing drink. In early summer we will be offering paddleboard trips along the estuary using or fleet of boards.
Timings and availability will be tide dependent.
