something special

When the stars come out

As daylight fades, Y Golchdy takes on a different character. The warmth of the veranda,
the gentle glow of lantern light and the stillness beneath the Black Mountain
invite you to slow down.

Sink into the hot tub, wrap yourself in a blanket, or spend an evening exploring
the night sky with the telescope provided. On clear nights, the
stars become part of the experience.
