Your Holiday Booking Form Holidays2Gether North Wales 2gether In the Autumn This is a ‘Just for Groups’ Holiday organised for LLU3A Departs Monday 15th October 2018 5 Days 4 Nights Visits to Portmeirion, Llanberis, Porthmadog, Betws y Coed, West Highland Railway and Ffestiniog Railway Our Hotel: The Bulkeley Hotel, is situated in Castle Street, Beaumaris on Anglesey. The Hotel is close to the beach, Beaumaris Castle is nearby, alongside the Menai Straits, and enjoys stunning views across to the mountains of Snowdonia. Built as a Georgian show piece in 1832, the hotel now has 43 en suite bedrooms, a fine restaurant, coffee shop, Real Ale bar and lounge. All the bedrooms are serviced by a lift. Highlights: This holiday will be a train enthusiast’s paradise! We will enjoy three Railway trips; Welsh Highland Railway from Caernarfon Station including a visit to Portmeirion, enjoy a ride on the Ffestiniog Railway from Porthmadog Station and finally a trip on the Llanberis Lake Railway. We will also visit Betwys y Coed or Llechwedd Slate Caverns and Portmeirion. There will be visits en route to RAF Museum at Cosford, and a Llangollen Wharf canal trip. Our itinerary: Monday: Our journey to North Wales takes us to the RAF Museum at Cosford. Situated next to an active airfield, there are over 70 aircraft housed in three Wartime Hangars and within the National Cold War Exhibition. See the world’s oldest Spitfire and a Lincoln Bomber; just two of the highlights in the ‘War in the Air’ Collection. We will stay here for lunch and then continue to our hotel to arrive in good time for dinner. Tuesday: We start our North Wales visits, taking a short drive to Caernarfon Station to join the Welsh Highland Railway for our journey to Porthmadog Station. The Welsh Highland Railway is Snowdonia’s newest railway. Trains start their spectacular 25 mile scenic journey from beneath the castle walls at Caernarfon. The trains - hauled by the world's most powerful narrow gauge steam locomotives - climb from sea level to over 650ft on the foothills of Snowdon, before zig-zagging dramatically down the steep hillside to reach Beddgelert, nestling in the heart of the National Park, then through the magnificent Aberglaslyn Pass and on to Porthmadog. As the longest narrow gauge line, the Welsh Highland is powered by a fleet of coal-fired South African NG Beyer-Garret locos. Our afternoon is spent in Portmeirion. The town was created by the architect Clough Williams-Ellis from 1925 to 1976. He wanted to show how a naturally beautiful site could be developed without spoiling it.Aside from its iconic architecture, scenic surroundings and vast woodland gardens. Portmeirion is home to hip hotels, a huddle of historic cottages, a spa and award-winning restaurants. Wednesday: We travel to Llanberis to visit the National Slate Museum. After a tour of the museum and time for coffee, we depart for a trip on the Llanberis Lake Railway. We stay in Llanberis for lunch. Our afternoon will be spent on a tour around Anglesey, visiting Holyhead and Beaumaris Castle with a stop for afternoon tea. Thursday: Today we have another exciting train journey. This time on the Ffestiniog Line. The railway is roughly 13 ½ miles long and runs from the harbour of Porthmadog to the slate mining town of Blaenau. We will travel through forested and mountainous scenery. The line is single track throughout with four intermediate passing places. The Ffestiniog Railway Company, which owns the railway, is the oldest surviving railway company in the world. It also owns the Welsh Highland Railway which was re-opened fully in 2011. For our afternoon visits, there is an optional choice to go to the Llechwedd Slate Caverns where you will find an interpretive centre showing how slate was extracted and processed, and a reconstructed village which shows how miners lived. Alternatively you can choose to visit Betws y Coed, the gateway to Snowdonia with a distinctly alpine feel. Friday: This morning, leaving the joys of North Wales behind, we head for Llangollen Wharf. We will enjoy a Canal trip from Llangollen to Froncysyllte across the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct. An optional ploughman’s lunch is available ‘on board’. As we continue for home we will have a short comfort stop. What is Included in the Holiday: Executive coach travel * Ensuite bedrooms * Half Board * Excursions & tours as detailed.

All rights reserved. 100022403, 2011 Distance: 9 miles (14½km) (there and back) Ascent: 3199 feet (975 metres) Time: About 6 hours (there and back) Grade: Mountain Walk Start / Finish: Far end of Victoria Terrace, Llanberis, off the A4086 (SH 581 594) Relevant Map: Ordnance Survey Explorer OL 17 (Snowdon & Conwy Valley) Parking There isn’t a car park at the start of the path but there are car parks in Llanberis village itself. In the high season you may descend by another of the Snowdon paths and catch the Sherpa bus back to your vehicle. © 2010 Snowdonia National Park Authority Llanberis Path, Snowdon Llanberis Path is the longest and most gradual of the six main paths to the summit of Snowdon, and offers fantastic views of Cwm Brwynog, Llanberis and over the Menai straights towards Anglesey. This is the most popular path amongst leisurely walkers as it is thought to be the easiest to walk in mild weather, but in winter, the highest slopes of the path can become very dangerous. The path mainly follows the Snowdon Mountain Railway track, and goes by Hebron, Halfway and Clogwyn stations. Before the railway was opened in 1896, visitors employed guides to lead them to the summit along this path on mule-back. A remarkable geological feature can be seen from the Llanberis path, the Clogwyn Du’r Arddu syncline. The syncline was formed over thousands of years, as the earth moved and transformed horizontal depos- its into vertical layers of rock. Safety Note The Llanberis Path and Snowdon Mountain Railway cross above Clogwyn Coch.

Description: 1.1 This is a full application to replace 32 touring caravans with 25 static units that would be available for use as self-catering holiday accommodation throughout the year on the site known as Cwm Cadnant, near Llanberis Road in Caernarfon (following discussions in considering the application, the number of new units has been reduced from 29 to 25). The site currently has single driveways, a play area, landscaping that includes trees, bushes and green areas, a washroom/toilet block, office/reception, bin storage and specific pitches for tents to the north of Cadnant river, with touring caravans and motorhomes to the south of the river. The proposal would entail dispersing chalets/holiday cabins within the area where the touring caravans are currently located. There would be no change to the camping area and its location on the northern side of the river. 1.2 The proposed timber cabins would be in three sizes, all with flat roofs, ranging between 3m and 4m in height, depending on the slope of the ground.
