Hen Dy is the old stone farmhouse on the Hafod y Llan estate, where it is said that Llywelyn the Great resided when he wrote to King John to form their alliance. The cottage is cosy and comfortable and a great retreat after a day spent exploring Eryri (Snowdonia).

After a hearty breakfast, head five minutes from the cottage and join up with the Watkin path, one of the walks up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) and a haven for birdwatchers. 

Further afield, Beddgelert is just three miles away while the beautiful town of Betws Y Coed, with its fantastic shops, pubs and cafes, is 14 miles away from the cottage.
