Tan-y-Fron Holiday Park

Tan-y-Fron is a quiet, well-kept holiday park just outside the market town of Dolgellau in southern Snowdonia, beneath the great bulk of Cadair Idris. A diverse collection of modern lodges and holiday homes sleeping two to six, it makes a peaceful, good-value base for both mountain days and the nearby coast, in one of the most scenic corners of the national park.
