Finding Hydra
Hydra is set in the picturesque Dee Valley, a short drive away from the charming Welsh town of Llangollen. You can explore the historic town itself, hike the Welsh Hills or just unwind in your cabin, overlooking the mountains of North Wales.
Five minutes in the car, or an hour if you fancy walking, you'll find some great places to eat and drink in Llangollen. Pop into Gales, the oldest wine bar in Wales to sample their drinks and delicious Welsh dishes, get a table at the Cornmill for some great pub food in a lovely location over the river, or if you want to cook up a storm visit Zingiber Wholefoods for local produce.
