There's a paved terrace area for al fresco suppers or brunches. A door in the garden wall opens onto the fabulous Ogwen estuary, where the tide comes gently into the ribbon of shingle and grass. Sea trout and salmon fishing in the River Ogwen can be arranged with the Penrhyn Estate Office, if you wish. The Traeth Lavan Nature Reserve covers approximately 6,000 acres of sands and mudflats; this is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and in midwinter, the sands attract masses of waders and wildfowl. Ideal for birdwatchers! Capel Ogwen sits inside a ten-foot wall, offering shelter from the winds off the Straits. To the south are incredible views across lush, green fields towards the Carneddau mountains. To the North are views of the Lavan Sands and Anglesey. Capel Ogwen is the perfect holiday house for parties and family reunions. Book your group getaway today!
Bangor is a university town on the North Wales coast with a large range of shops, bars and restaurants. It is the main crossing point for the Isle of Anglesey with two road bridges across the Menai Strait. Across the water, the castle and pier at Beaumaris make a lovely day out, or you can catch a boat to enjoy a trip out to Puffin Island. The Anglesey Coastal Path takes in beautiful scenery, and the island is home to many fine beaches including Rhosneigr, Trearddur Bay and Red Wharf Bay. The NT mansion Plas Newydd is on the island, while on the mainland further NT properties can be found including Penrhyn Castle and Bodnant Gardens. The spectacular mountains and lakes of Snowdonia are just a short drive way, with plenty of castles, beaches and other attractions on offer in this wonderful region. Bangor and the Menai Straits really do offer the best of both worlds!
