3 unique places to stay in North Wales

Looking for a last minute place to stay this summer? Did you know that Zip World also offers accommodation and places to stay in North Wales? Our accommodation, also referred to as ‘Basecamps’, are a collection of uniquely-styled accommodations offering something for everyone, as well as idyllic locations, scattered across North Wales. Some of the Basecamps are in or near our Zip World sites such as Zip World Betws-y-Coed, making our adventures even more accessible if you are visiting from outside Wales.

Forest Lodges - Zip World Betws-y-Coed, LL24 0HX

The Forest Lodges are a truly unique and cosy experience, nestled within the heart of a Welsh woodland. The Forest Lodges are located just around the corner from our Zip World Betws-y-Coed site but far enough away that you can still enjoy the privacy and isolation the lodges offer. These near-invisible lodges are unique due to the reflective material used on the outside of the building. This means they blend in perfectly with their surroundings, allowing you to immerse yourself in this natural environment.

The Forest Lodges offer an ideal base for your stay in North Wales, whether that be an action-packed week of adventures or a relaxing, private weekend. If you are looking for adventure, we offer a daily Forest Lodge Adventure Pass that offers unlimited rides on our iconic Fforest Coaster, located just next door at the Zip World Betws-y-Coed. When you are ready to relax, the lodges provide the perfect escape. Curl up with a glass of bubbly on the private balcony with views of Moel Siabod as the sun sets or sink into the hot tub or private outdoor bath, and recharge after a long day of adrenaline-filled adventures.

The Forest Lodges give you the option to either enjoy the comforts as a couple or as a family of five with a double room and bunkbed room, designed for the little ones. There are a host of amenities including a spacious living area, a kitchen with induction hob and a kettle, as well as private parking. The parking is located a five-minute walk from the lodges, due to their remote location but we have created a fun way to help you carry your luggage through the forest. Grab one of our luggage trolleys from the check-in point and make your way with ease to your cosy lodge. The lodges are also dog friendly, so feel free to bring along your beloved companion for the duration of your stay.

This lodge accommodation provides a private getaway in a forest setting.

If you are looking for a charming and quintessentially Welsh inn on your next visit to North Wales, we have just the place for you! The Tyn-y-Coed Inn is set in the heart of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and is the ideal spot to explore North Wales and its surroundings. This cosy inn will welcome you with open arms, offering a warm atmosphere and comfortable accommodation.

Tyn-y-Coed is conveniently located in the vicinity of some of North Wales’s top attractions including numerous hiking routes such as Moel Siabod, which you can see from the front-facing rooms. The inn is also conveniently located only a 10-minute drive from the world-famous mountain, Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon). If you are looking for a more relaxing stay, the inn is also within driving distance of some of the most-visited North Wales towns and villages such as Betws-y-Coed, Beddgelert and Llanberis, where you can spend the day wandering and exploring.

Each of the rooms offer a homely feel, making this stay a home-away-from-home. All the rooms have an en-suite, private bathroom with showers. The inn offers a snug environment to enjoy outside your room with a traditional pub situated downstairs, offering a variety of locally-sourced dishes and a selection of thirst-quenching beers from nearby and further afield. Don’t forget to opt for the delicious full Welsh breakfast before you leave!
