Location
Swn y Cnocell apartment is located on the former Vaynol Park, a grand estate with connections to the industrial heritage of North Wales. As you enter the estate through the impressive gateway, you pass Bryntirion Lodge (the former gatehouse which is also available to let), then follow the driveway through the wild deer woodland, where you may hear the sound of the woodpecker after which the apartment is named. Part of the surrounding land is owned by the National Trust, which provides the opportunity for some lovely walks along the waterside of the Menai Strait looking over towards Anglesey. The estate lies on the north coast of Wales, just outside the small coastal village of Y Felinheli (Port Dinorwic), which looks out over the Menai strait towards Anglesey. Port Dinorwic sits between the University City of Bangor and the Royal Town of Caernarfon, home to the Welsh Highland Steam Railway and one of the best-preserved castles in Wales. Further afield, though only a few minutes by car, is the famous Zip World in Bethesda, the Snowdonia National Park, Surf Snowdonia, the fabulous isle of Anglesey, the Victorian resort town of Llandudno and much more.- Pub 2 miles

Swn y Cnocell is one of the best properties we have ever stayed in (we also heard the woodpecker in the morning). The quality of the property, the view, the peaceful surroundings – were amazing. It fitted our needs (4 adults) perfectly – highly recommend.

GreenWood
Voted Best Family Attraction in North Wales, GreenWood is home to the only people powered roller coaster in the world – the Green Dragon Coaster takes five cars’ worth of people on a downhill whirlwind, through the woods and around a hill, and is entirely powered by the combined weight of the riders!
Hooton’s Homegrown Farm Shop
If you are interested in locally reared and sourced foods, then you will have heard of “food miles” – how far your produce has had to travel to get to you. Hooton’s Homegrown, a farm shop and café based outside of Brynsiencyn in Anglesey, do things a little differently: they work in “food metres”.
Plas Menai National Outdoor Centre
Plas Menai is the National Outdoor Centre for Wales, so you know that you’re in for a treat – as long as you like your outdoor activities, that is! Make sure you come prepared: you are going to need towels and swimming costumes if you want to make the most of your time here.
