Activities
Play Area
There is a play area in the holiday village, which is a two minute stroll from the cabin; close enough to enjoy, far enough away to preserve the peace!
Children's Activities
In addition to the on-site children's playground, why not try the animal puzzle trail and adventure playground at the Coed y Brenin forest park, just 2 miles away or King Arthur's Labyrinth near Machynlleth a subterranean river adventure where mythical tales abound.
For a more scientific pastime a visit to the Centre for Alternative Technology or the Electric Mountain is a must. The area has a wide range of activities to suit all age ranges.
Beaches
A range of excellent sandy beaches can be found within an easy drive of Haulfryn, including Harlech with it's impressive castle, Barmouth with its bustling seaside town and Black Rock Sands where you may drive on to the beach, not to mention Fairbourne, Talybont, Shell Island, Llandanwg, Ardudwy, Dyffryn and Tywyn.
Castles
The well known castles of Harlech, Criccieth and Dolwyddelan are all within reach but why not try some of the lesser known sites such as the Castelle y Bere ruins in the Dysynni valley, the Cymer Abbey near Dolgellau or the burial chambers at Dyffryn Ardudwy.

Panning For Gold
Around five miles south of the cabin is an old gold mine and a number of streams where the prized Welsh Gold has been found. After a heavy rainfall, you still sometimes see 'panners' looking for gold. We are told you should use a piece of carpet to capture the particles of gold, we suggest that you take some wellies and if you have younger children it will keep them amused for hours, even on a rainy day!
