Cefn Ddwysarn Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Llyn Maes-y-clawdd. Now a fishing lake. The name means "Lake field and dam".
Looking towards Parc-y-derwgoed. Parc-y-derwgoed is the wood at centre right. 'Derwgoed' means 'oaktree wood', but it looks to be mostly conifer now.
Ysgubor-y-waen. Derelict farm buildings. We surprised some sheep that were inside. The guttering was broken and the water is causing serious damage to the wall. It probably won't be standing much longer.

Hotel was just ok, but they had an open fire in the reception area, which basically smelled the whole of the hotel out, and our clothes still smell of it. Had to leave the bedroom window open all night to let fresh air in, even though my wife was cold. On the plus side I would definitely go back ...

The view was spectacular, especially as there was a moorland fire opposite one night which glowed for a few hours. The night sky was also spectacular. I haven;t seen so many stars and planets for decades. It was worth visiting for that alone. Very well organised for dogs especially the deck. Lovely ...
