Beudy'r Gelli Bothy

Beddgelert, Gwynedd

Nestled in the heart of Snowdonia, this restored stone building is surrounded by two private meadows joined by a footbridge over a small river. Beudy’r Gelli Bothy, a simple but beautiful dwelling that comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests, is a fun alternative to camping.

With nature’s delights at every turn, you’ll need to pack your boots rather than your gadgets. Discover the diverse landscapes that are right on your doorstep. From towering mountain peaks to stunning natural lakes and sandy stretches of coastline, there are many picturesque walks for beginner strolls and advanced hikes. There is a lovely walk up Dinas Emrys from outside the bothy which is steeped in legend.

After a long day of exploring, take in the sounds of rustling trees and birdsong or look up at the dark evening sky scattered with stars. For a change of scenery, head to the quaint village of Begggelert only a 15-minute walk from the bothy. Or why not check out the local pub that is only a two-mile drive away?

Make the most of your unique location and discover the hive of activity that surrounds you. Highlights include Zip World Adventures, to Bounce Below and Surf Snowdonia. Or if you’re nature and history lover head off to RSPB Conway, Black Rock Sands, Penryhn Castle or Craflwyn Estate.
