It is so fantastic for spiritual and physical wellbeing. This is why, complete with wood-fired hot tub with jets** (N.B. prior permission is required to use), garden lodge (with central fire-pit and seating for 10), and BBQ , we have created a dedicated area where friends and family can gather together in the open air to relax and enjoy the breath-taking beauty of the Snowdonian landscape, or celebrate under stars. * an allowance of 1 bag (April - September) 2 bags (October - March) of wood (mix of kindling, small pieces and logs) is provided. If you would like us to take delivery of additional wood in advance of your stay, please contact us in advance. We will do our best to accommodate this, but we cannot guarantee it. **please note that the jets and water filter cannot be used between November and February, or at anytime where freezing is a risk. Prior permission is required to use the hot tub. Prior experience is not required and permission is not likely to be refused. We require this so that we can ensure expectations about wood fired hot tubs are managed. Please contact us to discuss. Wood is not included in the price and will need to be purchased separately. We feel this is the fairest way to operate for our guests as wood use can vary significantly dependent upon level of use, season and fire-lighting proficiency. Guest access With the exception of a few storage rooms, cupboards, and the attic spaces, guests will have full use of the space.
