Everything you need to know if you choose to stay with us during your course.
If you are joining us for a course at Plas y Brenin or Alltshellach, accommodation is provided subject to availability. Accommodation is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. The course price listed on our website includes accommodation.
If we are unable to accommodate you on-site, we will offer you our lower non-residential rate.
For overseas courses, please check the course pages for any accommodation arrangements.
Rooming for our courses is in shared en-suite rooms as standard. If you know somebody on the same course as you, please let us know if you would like to be roomed together.
Subject to availability, you may be able to upgrade to a single room – please see below for details.
You can request a single room at the time of booking or at any point prior to the start date of your course. All requests are subject to availability. We charge a single supplement of £25 per person per night. If we have availability and you are happy to pay the additional supplement we will take payment for this by debit or credit card over the phone.
Bed linen and towels are provided for our residential courses, B&B and Anvil bookings. If hiring Moelwyn Bunkhouse, you can hire linen and towels if required at an additional cost.
We have parking at the front and rear of the centre which is free of charge to all course attendees and centre visitors.
