METHS REPORT: Beddgelert/Nantmor July 7Th to 11Th - 2014
METHS REPORT: Beddgelert/Nantmor July 7th to 11th - 2014 Peter and Antonia Tolhurst, Martin and Miriam Horrocks, David Leishman, Nigel and Jenny Horrocks, Stephen and Pauline Ward, Sue Glover (Miller) and Alan, Richard Gray (Tuesday only), Dave and Jan Bullock (Guests). Staying at: Tywyn self catering cottage and Studio, Nantmor - near Beddgelert, Gwynedd; also at Plas Tan y Graig, Bed and Breakfast, Beddgelert. To Afon Glaslyn did all descend, a shimmering serpent, stalking us from beginning to end. Riverside walk, Bistro, greetings, endless talk, retire to Nantmor. Head Chef Dave (L), breakfast made; ‘butties’ team - Antonia, Jenny, Jan - cheese salmon rocket or ham? - they made the grade! Cwm Bychan, steam trains, haunting whistles, mine workings, path builders, Llyn Dinas; Dave (B) Jan Pauline Jenny – left for Beddgelert, t’others right to Cwm Nant- mor – woods, river, rain, long walk, back home - dry again. Swim, sunbathe, tea and scones, chat. The Royal Goat lounge, decor dated, cheerful crowd, hunger sated. Roman road, route to Cnicht, ancient bridge, pace ‘quicked’; perfect day, Porth- madog behind, Siabod ahead, Snowdon left, Ffestiniog right; Bogs ahead – out of sight. Cwmorthin Quarry abandoned beckons, 55,000 tons of slates (1935) to Germany, even Melbourne – on Porthmadog built ships (250) – good heavens. Cwm Croesor quarried to death, dams, shafts, levels, abandoned rail tracks, we pause for breath. Dave (L) and Steve forge ahead Croesor bound, lift home, tea and scones - again! Dave Jan and Jenny waited, brilliant braai created, in garden splendid elevated. ‘Braai master’ Martin did us proud. By sparkling Glaslyn north bound, Gelert’s Grave - mythical hound; iron horse steaming by, flanks of Hebog, climbing steady, dry, Beddgelert way down below. -

Aber Cottage Beddgelert | Gwynedd | LL55
in association with Aber Cottage Beddgelert | Gwynedd | LL55 4YF Aber Cottage Softly surrounded by trees and with the Aberglaslyn River flowing gently through the garden, Aber Cottage is a place of great natural beauty and tranquillity. The cottage began life in the mid eighteenth century, and its character and location have inspired artists to pick up their brushes. A painting of the cottage in eighteen ninety is exhibited in the National Library of Wales. Sadly, the cottage fell into ruin, but was rescued in the nineteen eighties by a local businessman who won an award for the superb restoration. He renovated and extended, retaining the original chimney wall in the kitchen and bedroom. Today it is a charming home where you can enjoy the comforts of the modern age in a unique setting. It was only by chance that the present owners saw a photograph and sale details of the property in a magazine, and immediately fell in love with it. They have loved and enjoyed Aber Cottage for over twenty years and say it is where the cares of the world are washed away and energy revived. There are enchanting views to the river from every room, and it provides a picturesque backdrop to meals in the conservatory or on the patio. The surroundings tempt summer al fresco dining, but the kitchen diner can easily seat eight people and is equipped for the keen cook. The cottage has a calm and pleasing atmosphere. It encourages you to settle in the lounge to read and relax, and the multi fuel stove creates a warming glow on a chilly winters’ day. -
