Directions
"Access from A5 only. 6 miles south of Betws-y-Coed, take B4406 to Penmachno. At the centre of the village, turn off straight past the Eagles pub on your left (ignoring immediate right turn) and continue until you reach a fork in the road. Take the right turn up into the forestry. Please note this is a narrow lane, with steep verges either side and limited passing places. Continue straight (ignoring any left or right turns in the forestry) for 2 miles until you reach Tŷ Mawr Wyrbnant.
Parking: The main car park is free and on the left, approx. 500 yards before reaching Tŷ Mawr Wybrnant. For accessible parking (2 spaces) continue downhill past the car park, and park near the main entrance to the grounds. Please note, it is NOT possible to turn left when leaving the main car park - the turn is too tight and your vehicle will get banked / stuck and damaged. You can turn right and continue back towards the forestry where there is ample space for turning around.
SatNav: Use post code LL24 0UG to reach Penmachno village and follow brown signs and directions from there. Please note SatNav does not work with Tŷ Mawr Wybrnant post code."
