Have you ever thought of taking up a new hobby? How about birdwatching?

Birdwatching is a lovely way for children and adults alike to experience wildlife in a safe, captivating way.  Lower levels of depression, anxiety, and stress are linked to the number of birds seen, no matter the type. Birdwatching is a form of mindfulness that can help us feel calmer as we focus on finding the birds soaring through the sky or perched up on top of a tree branch. It requires patience, stillness, silence, and slow breathing to be able to catch a glimpse of vibrant feathers.

There are few better places (in our humble opinion) to enjoy birdwatching than right here in North Wales. If you want to birdwatch from the comfort of a house heated by a roaring log burner then Graig Isaf cottage is for you. You’ll be able to see all the wildlife out across the fields from out of the cottage’s huge patio windows.

We’ve still got a few stays available before Christmas so treat yourself and get down Graig Isaf cottage… and bring your binoculars to see what local feathered friends you can spot during your stay.
