The Gwydyr Mountain Club was fo

Tan-y-Garth Cottage is owned by Gwydyr Mountain Club and is situated in woodland at the base of Moel Siabod - the area is very scenic and peaceful but convenient for local amenities, with local stores in the centre of Capel Curig and in Betws y Coed, only a short drive away. The local area offers a wealth of wildlife, birds and pipistrelle bats, not to mention being close to the Gwydyr forest, run by the Forestry Commission it is filled with scenic walks and wildlife, not to mention activities such as mountain biking routes.

Tan y Garth (under the hill in Welsh) offers comfortable self catering accommodation in the heart of Snowdonia National Park at a reasonable price

The property is an old stone cottage built towards the end of the nineteenth century. Although having been fully modernised including a new fitted kitchen and UPVC windows there is a relatively steep narrow staircase which may prove difficult for disabled people.

Tan-y-Garth is a NON-SMOKING establishment

Accommodation

Bedroom 1.

The cottage offers sleeping accommodation for six comprising twin bedded room, double room and there is a double sofa bed in the dining room

There are pillows and duvets on the double and single beds and some additional blankets along with duvets and pillows for the sofa bed. Bed linen is provided but you should bring your own towels.

The bathroom consists of a bath and shower but separate WC.

The accommodation downstairs includes newly fitted kitchen, dining and sitting room.

The kitchen is equipped with electric cooker, microwave, fridge, kettle and toaster - crockery, utensils and cutlery are provided.

The dining room chimney is capped and cannot be used.

An open fire can be lit in the sitting room. Wood, paper and firelighters are not provided, but are available in both Capel Curig and Betws y Coed.
There is a colour TV with video recorder and DVD player and music centre but owing to the cottage's mountain position the reception received is not always very good.

Electricity (including the convector heater in the sitting room) is supplied through a £1 meter . Two storage heaters operate automatically on a time lock, the cost of which is included in the charge for the cottage.

We do welcome pets although we would appreciate if they were not allowed to sleep on the beds or furniture. We ask for £5.00 per dog per week. Dogs own bed or bedding is essential.

Off road parking for two vehicles is available
