4-star hotels in Blaenau-Ffestiniog
A shortlist of 4-star places to stay in Blaenau-Ffestiniog, from hillside cottages in Tanygrisiau to a hotel at Llechwedd. It is for travellers who want self-catering space or a serviced base in Snowdonia.
Staying in Blaenau-Ffestiniog
Blaenau-Ffestiniog is a former slate town in Snowdonia, surrounded by hills and old quarry workings, and it is the northern terminus of the Ffestiniog Railway. Visitors come for walking, mountain biking and the slate landscape rather than for a city break, and much of the accommodation is cottage-style and self-catering.
The 4-star listings here sit in the town and its immediate villages. Manod View, Bryn Eithin and Old Post Office are 0.4 to 0.6 km from the centre, while 2 Holland Terrace, 19 Cwmorthin Road and 3 Barlwyd Terrace are in Tanygrisiau, 1.3 to 1.8 km out. Plas Weunydd is at Llechwedd, 2.2 km from the centre, and further out are Tegannedd, Mill Cottage, Ty Capel Isa, Minffordd and a log cabin near Bronaber. It suits couples and groups who want a kitchen and a fireplace, with Plas Weunydd the serviced option for shorter breaks.
