Emma and Menno welcome you to their warm and cosy Bed & Breakfast and Tea room Tŷ Mawr, ideally situated for a holiday in the mountains of the Snowdonia National Park.

Tŷ Mawr is located in the tiny village of Rhyd Ddu, 30 km from Bangor and 15 km from Caernarfon in the county of Gwynedd, North Wales. It lies at the foot of Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales. Its peak (1085 meters) is only 6 km away.

Rhyd Ddu lies on the A4085 between Caernarfon and Beddgelert. There is a good bus service to both places.

We are also conveniently located if you need a little rest whilst on your way to Holyhead to catch the ferry to Ireland.

Many interesting walks start from the village; the Rhyd Ddu path to Snowdon, the Nantlle Ridge, Moel Hebog, Yr Aran, plus forest walks.

Tŷ Mawr - ‘Big House’ - is a more than 200 years old stone cottage and has three double rooms, one of which has en suite facilities. The two other rooms share a bathroom with shower and separate bathtub. All rooms have central heating, television, fan, hairdryer and a tea - and coffee tray.

We serve a hearty breakfast to set you up for the day (you can even try a pancake). Packed lunches and a good home cooked evening meal are available on request.

In the Tea room we serve several sorts of tea, all day breakfast, sandwiches, panini’s, toasties, homemade soups, cakes, ice cream, etc. Menno’s Dutch pancakes are recommended for the hungry walker!!!

Almost next door is a pub that serves real ales and good food.

The Welsh Highland Railway train chugs into Rhyd Ddu station where it can be boarded and travels through some spectacular countryside to Caernarfon.

We are looking forward to welcoming you as one of our guests.
