The Hand at Llanarmon

For a place to stay in North Wales, I heartily recommend 'The Hand' at Llanarmon. It's located in blissful peace, is run by very friendly management, serves up great food and drink, and has an interesting backstory to boot.

We took a trip to Pistyll Rhaeadr, Wales's highest waterfall. But where exactly is it? And is that a mermaid in the pool beneath? Questions, questions...

A short walk in the Berwyn Mountains

Nymph of the Grot and myself went for a wander through the quiet, picturesque and idyllic Berwyn Mountains, in North Wales. I huffed and puffed and swore at sheep, while Payno enjoyed the flowers and got a bit wet. Then disaster struck, and I lost her down an old mine. RIP.
