For history buffs, a visit to the Caer Rufeinig Segontium, the Segontium Roman Fort, would be such a treat - it's a former Roman auxiliary fort where you can step back in time to the Roman era in Britain. Discover the beauty of the Welsh coast at Moel Y Don, a serene beach offering spectacular views of the Menai Straits and the Snowdonia Mountain range. Caernarfon is close by, offering an impressive castle to explore, as well as a great selection of amenities, and guests can also visit Conwy, Bangor, and Anglesey with its Sea Zoo, watersports activities, and stunning beaches.

Llanrug is a small village with two pubs, two shops, a Post Office, a hotel with indoor swimming pool and fitness room, and a 9 hole golf course is nearby. The village is situated in the foothills of the Snowdonia Mountain Range, only 3 miles from famous Llanberis. Dominated by the grandeur of the Snowdon Massif, Llanberis is flanked by two lakes, Llyn Padarn and Llyn Peris, and is one of the most popular mountain tourist centres in the Snowdonia National Park. Llanberis is something of a 'mecca' for walkers and climbers, being the starting point for the ascent of Snowdon - the highest mountain in Wales. The ascent can be made either by train, on the Snowdonia Mountain Railway, or on foot along one of the many routes to the summit. Llanberis boasts excellent places to eat and drink and a great choice of shopping. Just 4 miles from Llanrug, on the coast, is Caernarfon with its magnificent 13th century castle and town walls and close by are National Trust properties at Penrhyn and Plas Newydd and many wonderful beaches.
