During the season, there are castle tours and pageants. The Welsh Highland Railway crosses via Beddgelert and Porthmadog. Segontium, a Roman fort and museum, is walkable from the town centre and offers fishing trips. Caernarfon has many shops and restaurants and is close to the Isle of Anglesey, the Lleyn Peninsula, and the mountains and rivers of Snowdonia, notably Llanberis at the foot of Mount Snowdon.

Particular with the proximity of Caernarfon Castle, and the Menai Straits. What adds to this beautiful scenic stay was the mountains and Snowdonia as a backdrop to this restful stay. The small town square, and itâs church. And of course itâs friendly and lovely villagers. In addition, the flat that I stayed in Moel Tryfan overlooked craft shops, of course I visited the craft shops. Bethâs gallery has been an absolute inspiration. As my visit was a little longer I visited Mostyn and Abakhans. And also got some time in Llanddwyn island! Iâm currently learning Northern Welsh language, and will be back to visit other parts of this breath taking, and certainly underrated part of Wales. A huge thanks to Colin the caretaker, who always ensures that I have a safe stay, and in a respectful way.

It's so well decorated and furnished, spotlessly clean, and the view of the castle is extraordinary! There's a charm about staying in the artisan Cei Llechi area too, especially being above the small museum. One huge plus is that, although Moel Tryfan is an apartment, there are no neighbours adjoining you, so - no noise. The only possible improvements I could suggest are some more cutlery, and personally I don't like tea out of a earthenware mug ( picky!) Thank you. We hope to be back for a third visit. Sheila
