    “It is a very Cosy Shepherd's hut. I only needed the one bed so the other one became just a shelf for my books etc. The log burner made it even more cosy and comfortable. Only basic cooking facilities but they were certainly adequate. The sound of...”

I have been welcoming guests from all over the world here for the last 30+ yrs, and made many friends from all over the world. Last year I retired from the farmhouse B&B,and started a new venture Y Cwt Clyd / Cosy Hut the shepherd's hut, for friends and old and new guests who wish to explore Wales. I hope they will enjoy this new experience while staying here! Milk,tea,coffee,sugar and cookies are provided for your arrival.
Frongoch is well known for the National White Water Centre nearby which is popular for kayaking and white water rafting. 2016 the village of Frongoch commemorated the centenary of the 1916 Irish Easter Rising ,when we welcomed groups from Ireland and UK. This year GAA unveiled a plaque to commemorate the existence of our field called Croke Park. While the Irishmen were interned in Frongoch 1916 they organised athletics games and Gaelic Football matches on our field which they christened Croke Park. A museum has been built on the site of the Old Whisky distillery to replicate a cabin where they were interned in the North camp. The museum will be open this summer for visitors.
