Lots of events coming up in and around Llwyngwril this summer!

Well possibly the best experience that you can have in north Wales this summer is right here in Llwyngwril. From now until the end of October prepare to be entertained and amazed, just by walking around our village. The ladies (and a few men) have been working hard to create the wonderful knitted and crocheted displays that can be seen all around the village. Gwril is back of course on his perch on the bridge, where he belongs. Make sure that you buy a guide from outside the village shop to ensure that you don't miss out anything. All donations go to raise funds for the local Community Centre.


First event coming up soon , not to be missed is the Three Peaks Yacht Race starting from Barmouth on Saturday the 9th of June. 

This has to be the most extreme way to complete the three peaks challenge - climbing the highest mountains in Wales, England and Scotland.  The start from Barmouth is preceded by a procession of the yachts from the harbour to the start line off shore with events, stalls and music on the quayside. You can always watch the boats leave the harbour from just across the water on Fairbourne beach.

RNLI Dog Show  on the 24th of June 
2pm at the boathouse. Classes for large, medium and small dogs. There will even be awards for the dog with the waggiest tail - and for the dog that looks most like its owner!
