If there’s one thing I’ve learned from years of living in the heart of Snowdonia, it’s that a North Wales sunset isn’t just an event: it’s a spiritual experience. Especially when you’ve got a cold drink in one hand and a plate of something delicious in front of you....

Morning, folks! Peter Dive here. It’s a cracking Tuesday morning, the 9th of June, and the sun is currently doing that magic thing it does over the Rhinogydd mountains where everything just looks… well, expensive. If you’re sitting at your desk in a grey office right...

Listen, I’ve spent more hours than I care to admit with a hammer in one hand and a local ale in the other lately. Between restoring the 16th-century stone walls of our beloved Rhiw Goch Inn (it’s coming along, I promise!) and making sure our guests in The Lodge House...

Morning, everyone. Peter here. I’m currently sat on the porch of the Lodge House with a brew that’s probably 80% caffeine, watching the mist roll off the Rhinogydd mountains. It’s one of those quiet North Wales mornings where the only sound is a sheep having a...

It’s Friday evening here at the Rhiw Goch Inn, and as the sun starts to dip behind the Rhinogydd mountains, I’m sitting here with a glass of something cold, watching the light turn that perfect shade of orange over the moorland. If you’ve ever stayed with us here in...
