There is a mountain terrace overlooking the valley, nestled in 360 degree mountain views and forests, where you can take your vows. The Ffestiniog railway can be seen chuffing past and the river flows into the Aberglaslyn gorge straight from the bottom of the drive.

Inside we have capacity for 80 seated and 120 to party away in the evening.

Tŷ Afon is a hideaway of relaxed luxury and homely charm. With rivers and birdsong as your soundtrack, and mountains rising on every side, you’ll have privacy, inspiration and freedom to plan as you please.

 The perfect setting for your vows.
