Rainy day in Eryri?

Perfect.

Grab your waterproofs and go find a waterfall. 💦

Not everyone’s favourite type of weather, but there is a definite upside: all that rain has filled the streams and rivers again and the waterfalls are putting on a proper show.

There are plenty around Dolgellau, so here are 4 of our favourite waterfall walks to save for a wet weather day.

💦 Rhaeadr Ddu & Coed Ganllwyd
A lovely woodland walk to one of Eryri’s most impressive waterfalls. The river and surrounding woodland are particularly beautiful after a good spell of rain.

💦 Pistyll Cain & Rhaeadr Mawddach in Coed y Brenin
Two waterfalls in one adventure, with beautiful woodland trails along the way. A great choice when you fancy a waterfall fix without a huge hike.

💦 Torrent Walk
A beautiful riverside route following the Clywedog through woodland, with plenty of rushing water and waterfalls along the way. Especially atmospheric after rainfall.

💦 Arthog Falls & Cregennan Lakes
Waterfalls, woodland and mountain scenery all in one. Make a day of it and enjoy the spectacular surroundings of Cregennan Lakes too.

📌 SAVE this post for your next rainy day in Eryri. Because the wet weather makes the waterfalls even better.

After years of travelling around the world ourselves, we've learnt that the best places to stay are about more than just a bed.

The places we love staying most, are where you spread the map across the big table and decide what route to tackle tomorrow.

Where you can sit down with a cup of tea after a long day out and about.

Where you swap stories, compare routes with other guests and start planning the next adventure.

That's exactly what we wanted Plas Isa to be.

A comfortable, welcoming space where you can slow down, make plans and enjoy the company of fellow outdoor lovers.

Because some of the best moments of an adventure happen after you've taken your boots off.

Imagine this for a second...

A couple of days in South Eryri,
hiking with your mates,
staying in a big old Grade II listed house where you can use the kitchen to prepare your own lunch and dinner.

Pubs and restaurants right on the doorstep.

Breakfast is already taken care of.

Your room is big enough to share with your friends - no need to book separate (read: expensive) rooms.

And when you get back after a day on the hills, there’s plenty of space in the drying room for your gear, with stacks of old newspapers waiting on the boot rack.

Do you like the sound of that?

The only thing missing is you and your mates getting a date in the diary. 😉

Are you ready... for the “-ber” months?

We are. We can’t wait.

Green turning to gold and brown.
Waterfalls flowing again.
Rosy cheeks after a day outside.
Warm, cosy pubs with the fire on.
Hearty meals.
And that feeling that autumn is properly here.

Bring on September, October, November and December...

Autumn is a great time to get all your friends together for a weekend away in Eryri / Snowdonia.

Fancy a few days of hiking, cycling, mountains, good food and good company?

If you’re the one in charge of organising the next friends’ get together, give us a call.

“If the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live.”

The famous quote Einstein apparently never made.

What is definitely true, though, is that there are still a lot of very lovely people on this earth - and we’ve had the absolute pleasure of meeting some of them this summer.

These gorgeous little egg cups were a Thank You gift from Roberto, Montse and their 10 year old daughter from Catalonia.

They stayed with us for four nights and loved the day trips we suggested to them.

Roberto is a beekeeper back home, and Maia spotted our bee coasters as soon as they arrived.
That created an instant connection: we talked with hands and feet (and a bit of Google Translate!) about bees, gardening, culture and languages and all sorts of other things.

To receive a small gift like this means more than you can imagine.

Not because of the gift itself, but because of what it represents.

Four nights of sharing our home. Conversations across languages. Recommendations, laughter and a little glimpse into each other’s lives.

It’s moments like these that remind us why we love what we do.

Gracias ❤️

We hope you all will remember your time in Dolgellau — just as these egg cups will remind us of the lovely people from Catalonia who came to stay. 🐝
