Why I Love... The Pen-Y-Gwryd Hotel

"Few hotels can boast a better location. It perches alone, halfway up the Pen-y-Pass between the flanks of Snowdon and Gylders ridge. "

Wales Pub Guide: Pen-y-Gwryd Hotel

"The pub is shrouded by high rhododendrons, its solid walls are clad with Virginia creeper and it has a pleasing insouciance. Set in a stunning landscape; it's been a haunt of heroes and offers delicious food and drink. "
